Chicago Tribune : Leonard Swott ol Chicago is a native of Maine and re visits the scones ot his youth quite fre quently. Ho was in Portland the other day talking with some of his old friends , when General Sheridan's recent death was mentioned. ' "That reminds mo , " said Mr. Swett , "that I came very near preventing that famous 'Sheridan's Ride ; ' had I done which , I have no doubt , Sheridan would never have boon the famous man that ho was. " "How was that ? " asked his friends , nnd Mr. Swott bottled himself back in in his chair for the story. "On the morning of October 10 , 1801 , the day of the battle at Winchester , 1 was at Willard's hotel in Washington , The corridors wore thronged with pub lic men , both oUlcers and civilians , and n friend was entertaining mo by point ing out the most famous of thorn. Sud denly ho pointed to n short , active man , saying : 'That Is Sheridan the cavalry general. ' His name was not ns famous then tu it is now , but ho was already so con' bpicuous a soldier that I watched bin with interest , and was well pleased will the introduction with which my friom' favored mo. This was the beginning of my acquaintance with Genera ! Sheridan , und it came near having ul amitons results for him. "After I loft Shoridttn I wont to the white house to call on President Lin coin , whoso law partner and intimate as' eociato I hud boon in Illinois before the \vnr. In tlio course of our cotivor.srtUon I mentioned to Mr. Lincoln thnt I hud se < m bhqridun tit Wlllimi's tlmt morn- 'That cannot bo'said Mr. Lincoln , 'he would not come to Washington with out calling on mo. ' " 'I him ' 'nnd certainly saw , I replied , spoke with him , ' " 'That is strange , ' Paid Mr. Lincoln , 'I want to BOO him much much indeed I must see nim. ' "I at once volunteered to go to Wil- ard's nnd bring Sheridan. At the otol they told mo that the general had ust loft for the depot. I took n hack nd drove after him at full speed in the lope of reaching him before the dp- mrturc of the train. But the train 'oiled ' out of the station just as I rode n. 1 had missed Sheridan and was nuch disappointed , as was President ln also when I reported to him. Jut Sheridan rolled oWtoward Win- hcstcr , loft the cars in time to hear ho cannonading of thu famous light vnd by his historic ride came onto the ield in tlmp to save the day. The vents of that day made Sheridan's 'amo imperishable. But had 1 found lim at the hotel , or overtaken him nt ho depot , he would have obeyed Prcsi- lent Lincoln's command , undoubtedly , Winchester would have been an utter defeat for us oven Sheridan might "mvo been disgraced. ' Long after the war , when Sheridan was stationed In Chicago , I told htm this lory. Ho emphatically declared that 10 should not have gone back , oven liough President Lincoln did order it. . told him that ho would have , and used roqtiontly to recall the circumstance ivhon I would see him. Along at the nst of it ho reluctantly admitted hini- clf that ho might have gone back. " Hank Imposture. "Fraud loves n shining murk. " SO- ZODONT is a conspicuous target for unscrupulous marksmen.

Guns AVhlcli Can 'llirow Shot Thirteen Bllles Hulli for the American > nvy. Chicago News : The "quick-firing guns" arc being rapidly introduced into our navy , and , though they do not con stitute a part of the navy batteriesthoy are the finest small guns no.v turned out for quick firing. Their range of four miles makes it extremely difficult for the swiftest torpedo-boat to approach a vessel armed with these guns without being torn to piocs by the in cessant rain of solid shot they are capa ble of throwing. They are breech-load ing , and are worked either by steam or handbrakes. Six men are all thnt are necessary to handle them olloctually. These guns are an improvement on the HotchkibS revolving cannon in the same way that the llotchklsswns an im provement on the Catling and Gardor. The superiority of the now "quick-firing gun" Is in the hciivv metal it throws at a rate which exceeds any modern gun of sltiglo-Iirlng capacity. To bo sure , the Holohkiss revolving cannon may fire " 50 rounds per minute , but the ac curacy with which twenty-live shots per mituito can bo thrown from the "quick- firing gnn , " to say nothing of the in crease in metal , far exceeds thg rain of lighter projectiles from the Hotchkiss. On our new steel vossols-of-wur a com plement of Hotchki&s cannon , Catling guns and quick-firing guns constitute what is known ns the ' 'secondary bat tery. " These light guns nro judiciously distributed nbout the docks , in the tops and advantageous positions for a clear range nt all small craft on the open water. The "quick-firing guns" being of heavier metal than the Hotchkiss or Catlings , are kept wholly on deck , and usually protected by a half-turret or shield against small arms and light pro jectiles. Wheu the quick-firing guns are in close proximity to any gun of the primary battery the shield bervos as a protection from the terrible blast of the heavier ordnance. When congress a few sessions past decided - cided upon building up the navy and placing it upon a footing compatible with modern requirements the absence of all modern , ordnance among our ships-of-war was a feature too appalling to bo overlooked. In Europe the Armstrongs of England wore turning out 100-ton guns , while Krupp had under contract a 1200-ton gun for the Italians a gun which would bo fifty feet in length , throw a projec tile weighing 2,500 pounds to a distance of fourteen miles , and use n propelling force of 000 pounds of gunpowder. With us lfttl6 or nothing has boon done since the last wnr. At the clobO of that period our naval vessels carried some of the heaviest armament alloat rilled guns of the finest and mbst pow erful make. England , Franco , Ger many and Russia hud in the meantime used every energy to still further strengthen their Hoots , and emoluments nnd inducements innumerable wore hold forth to the Inventive spirits of their respective countrios. Congress commenced the now depar ture of building up tlio navy by appro priating $25,000,000 for iron-elads nnd stool cruisers , and nt the pnmo time sot aside 81,000,000 for the establishment of an ordinnnco foundry in Washington , D. C. A board of naval officers , repre senting the talent and brain of the por- vice , wns organized to dovite and select a pattern of guns for the now navy ; re course was had to every nation in the world ; plans , dobigns , propositions , und opinions wore brought before the board ; every experiment known in the world in gunnery achievements was looked into , and , us a result of the delibera tions and wisdom of this "ordnance board , " a typo of guns has been selected for the American navy which has no superior in the world to-day. The llrnt gun decided upon was fount' impossible to build in this country , foi the reason that no foundry possessei the plant requisite for the work. The South Boston iron works of Boston however , took the contract for the plant. This gun cost the government $75,000 , and to-day is the battery of the steel dispatch boat Dolphin. Since the advent of the first six-inch rillo the government has taken the building in hand nnd the cost bus been roducoi from 876,000 for the original one to $155,000 for those now turned out. These guns resemble a long telescope , niountei on a steel hydraulic carriage. In the six-inch rillo this telescope is twenty- eight foot long and the projectile firoc has a range of over five miles , and it can pierce throe five-Inch steel plates bucked by four foot of oak and teak , at a distance of ' 500 yards. The caliber of a gun denominates is maUo. Thus the six-inch rillo has a bore which is six inches in diameter. The eight-inch rillo ( diameter of the bore eight inches ) is thirty-two feotlon' ' and throws its projectile over tea miles. The twolvo- inch rillo is nearly thirty-live feet long and has n range of nearly thirteen miles. These nro our modern guns. They have attained a velocity per second end for their projectiles in excess of Armstrong and equal to Krupp. Over thirty-five of the guns , of different cal ibers are now finished at the Washing ton foundry , nnd the work on the others intended for our now iron-elads is being pushed rapidly forward.

Spoo- al Correspondence of Till ! 13lH ! The city of Rait Luke , Utah , is uiiqueBtlon- nbly the most historically in to resting of uny city in the United States und jotter known in thu remotest parts of .ho old world than any of our metro politan cities of the cast. Notwith- ittimliug its world-wide reputation , uowovcr , its charms , attractioiihand ad- vuntajjea are but little known even by , ho inhabitants of our nearest states ind torrltorics though of nil tlio stntgs mil territories which comprise the far west Utah of which Salt Lake City irf the capital stands first in tlio history jf colonization. Its settlement dates Dauk to 1817 , but the religious views of A\o \ pioneers ilifTered so essentially from hoao of other religious bodies that they I'athcr repelled than attracted the iiomescoUcrs who have emigrated to the tar west during tlio past forty yoar.s. Halt Lnko City was founded July 2t , 1817. It now hiiBn population of10,000 , Vbout Hix-tonthb of which are Mormons , but rapidly being outnumbered by gentile emigration. Recent largo in vestments of eastern capital in enter prises In the city nnd valley have im parted nil impetus to labor emigration and so stimulated the real estate market that the irrepressible boom can now bo considered decidedly on. and it isa con servative prediction that Suit Lake City will have a population of 100,000 within live years. Her geographical location and commercial advantages not only assure , but actually demand the reali/ation of this predicted pros perity. It is the distributing point for u vast area of agricultural , mineral and gnuing country for 500 miles distant cast , west , north and south. Far in to Idaho , Montana and Oregon on the north , Nevada on the west , north ern Ari/onn on the south and Colorado to the eastward she roaches out for her trndo. As it has boon said Salt Lake valley is as ' 'fertile as n garden. " On its one side are the Wahsatch mountains with high peaks which grow mightier in the northward until they pierce the azure sharp white cones. Opposite them and forming the western limits of the valley are the lower heights of the Oquirrh range from the base of which the valley gently slopes down to tno banks of the river Jordan. Northward , nnd lyin" cold nnd still , is Salt Lake , from out whoso waters rise solitary mountain islands , nnd along the entire length of the valley there are countless farms. Hardly a foot of ground remains uncultivated. In the ranges are shaded canons , into which ono may look , us the train passes , to where bright streams nro flowing amid a mass of foliage. There is a wealth of coloring brSsrut green in the mountains ; pure white on tlio peaks , blue in the dim distance , and nearer the traveler ex tended patches of yellow wheat scat tered among the lesser lengths of vege table ) gardens. Nature seems to have smiled on this region , and basking in her pleasure the beautiful valley cap tivates all who see } t. In such a spot might Evangelino have lived ; it is the Eden of the west. At its upper end lies Salt Lake City , overlooking the lake , and pressing closely against tlio mountains on whoso lower slopes it stands. From the Narrows the dim out lines of the city may bo soon , half ob scured by the thin wreaths of smoke above it , nnd nestling like a white patch in the landscape , under the shadow of Ensign peak , which guards it on the north. Intervening stretches the valley for nearly 200 miles distant "Half drowned la sleepy peace it lay , As satiate with the boundless play Of sunshine In Its green array. " Throughout this entire valley cnn bo seen small towns peopled by agricul turists , who have planted shady groves nbout their homes ; nnd ugain a place with huge smeltora nnd furnaces , whoso tnll chimneys send forth volumes of flame nnd smoko. Gradually the Inko is approached. Its placid waters reflect the clouds above , and the peaks around it. To its right is HALT LAKIS CITY. It is so located as to command n view of the entire valley , both ranges of moun tains , und the southern portion of the lake. The streets are wide , nnd lined on either side by long rows of shade trees nnd flowing streams of pure spring water from the adjacent mountains. The business sections are well built , and the private dwellings arc almost invari ably situated within largo squares , and have trees and lawns about thorn.

It has a seating capacity of 12,000 nnd contains ono of the finest organs in the world. The assembly hall is 120 by 03 feet , cost $150,000 and will seat 2,500. The lion , beehive nnd gardo houses were built by Brigham Young for resi dences. The latter now belongs to the church and is President Taylor's re&i- dcnco. There nro nearly ono hundred miles of streets in Salt Lake City , 132 feet wide , and the blocks nro GOO foot square. TUB HOT Sl'lllNOH nt the edge of the city limits nro highly medicinal nnd the baths are largely patronized for many ailments. The city is well supplied with line hotels , the Walker and Metropolitan being among the loading hotels , nnd are as line as can bo found for comfort and uxurious living anywhere west of Now York City. They are first-class in every respect , having all modern con veniences. They nro the headquarters for tourists and traveling men. The pices range from $2.50 to&l.OO per day. There are several national bankslivery stables , newspapers , foundrys , reduc tion works , street railways , university nnd high schools , electric light plants , etc. Salt Lnko City has four or five lines of railways , the principal ones of which nro the Utah Central , Utah Southern , Denver & Rio Grande , Utah & Novaun. The former and latter are owned by the great Union Pacific Rnil- wny company , which has more miles of road in the mountainous regions than any railway system in the world. The Utah & Nevada branch of the Union Pacific runs from Salt Lnko City to the finest salt water bathing place and summer resort on the continent. QAIiriliLD HliACH. It is located upon the southern shore of Great Salt Luke , eighteen miles trom Salt Lake -City , ( only thirty ( iniiiuto3 rldo from the latter , ) where the beach for thrco miles distant is of pure vrhlto faml as clean nnd level as n floor , mak ing it the finest natural bathing place in the known world. The water is clear as n cryntnl and carried n density of salt of nbout twenty per cent , while that of the ocean is about four percent. With this great difference In the den sity of the two waters , thnt of Salt Lake far excels anything' known to science , it Is so buoyant that bathers nro sus tained upon its surface indefinitely without the slightest olfort. The Union Pnelllc railway company have by im provement made tliia ono of the most beautiful , enjoyable , enticing and healthful pleasure and bathing resorts upon the western continent. They have erected throe hundred now dressing rooms for bathers , all containing sta tionary bowls nnd fresh wnter showers , also n line restaurant and a number of cottages for those wishing to sojourn nt the beach for some time. They have also constructed a largo pier twenty- five feet wide and a , distance of about live hundred feet out Into the lake , and nt the outer end a grand pavillion 160 foot long bv 100 feet wide , whore thcro is stationed a band of music every afternoon ' noon and evening , discoursing'for tlio pleasure of these tripping the light fan tastic upon the pavillion and lor tlio edification of the bathers afloatupon the waters beneath. The grand old excur sion steamer Garllold , which has been the pride of the lake for so many years , Is still upon its waters , while the little pleasure yacht CloisoShermnti does val- liant service in making dolours of the lake with excursionists or special parties and n largo number of smaller boats nro constantly employed by the thousands of visitors at the beach daily. There are n great many other Items of interest at the beach , ono of which is Amusement Hall where tenpins pins , target shooting , and other sports iiro indulged in by men , women and children. Everything at the beach is un der tlio immediate control of Messrs. Markol & Swobo , of the Pacific hotel company , who with their largo exper ience and unlimited resources spare no pains to make the visitors' stay there ono of pleasure and contontment. The Union Pacific have so arranged their train service between Salt Lake City nnd the beach that the ride upon the cars is a pleasure .of itself. Trains con sisting of eight to fifteen open summer cars leave the city almost every hour during the day nnd evening , returning quite us frequently , thereby enabling tourists , citizens and excursionists to make n trip to the beach and return to their homes or hotels within n couple hours time. It is understood that the company . propose eroting a magnificent hotel at the beach early next spring. If this is done there can bo no question but what tourists , and especially families from greater dis tances , will .sojourn nt the beach for weeks nnd months. It is the only place upon any trans-contiiiontnl line of rail way in America where the monotony of the long , tedious jouHnoy to the trav eler , or the dull carps of city life , can bo overcome so completely in a bhort time. Hero they fitld r , pure day atmos phere always , mado't'ooland ' bracing by the lake breezes and the deep blinded canons of the Oquirrhs holding its morning dews from the hot rays of the noon-day sun , Here they find ono of the most enlivening1 nnd invigorating bathing waters that nature ever provided , nnd hqro they find n w.ondorful study of nature's arts. The Oquirrh range forms a beautiful background to the rippling wntora of the lake , which stretch out on either hnnd before the beholder , dancing in the sunlight , sometimes a beautiful blue nnd at other times green , with three or four of tlio largest islands in full view , which , in the distance have a peculiar purplish hue. When Great Salt Lake was discovered it was out of the world , but it is now iso lated no longer. Every ono taking the transcontinental trip on the Union Pa cific railway is afforded n detour free of charge to Salt Lake City , nnd once in Salt Lake City the great lake must bo soon , and this lake , as a special feature , is becoming better nnd better known every year , and is now the greatest salt water bathing resort in America. SODA Sl'UINOS , IDAHO. The most remarkable group of min eral springs in America are the Sodn Springs , of Blnglmm county , in eastern Idaho. They are situated in a romantic valley , 5,770 feet above the level of the sea , surrounded by lofty snow-clad mountains , and easily ; reached from the east or west by the Oregon Short Line , which passes through this region on its way to Portland. Bear river , which is a tributary of Great Salt Lake , flows through this depression in the moun tains from east to west. On the north side , Soda creak , fed by innumerable springs , nnd carrying n largo volume of water , flows down to its junction with Bear river. The town and station of Soda Springs nro on this creek , n milo above its junction with Bcnr river. Within a radius of two or thrco miles nro scores of Inrgo springs , the waters ranging from almost ice cold to warm , some of them being so highly charged with carbonic acid and other gases as to prove a moht pleasing beverage. 'J ho waters are a supurb tonicnnd arc effect ing remarkable cures. Steamboat Springs , so named by General Fremont in 1843 , have a temperature of eighty- seven degrees. Many of the more prom inent springs have names such as the Jowsharp , Hooper , Champagne , Forma tion , etc..but the water from , the In- danha spring is most palatable , and has a delightfully refreshing and invigorat ing effect. Thcbo delicious soda and magnesia waters are becoming &o popu lar thnt train loads are shipped each Benson to consumois in distant states. The Soda Srings region abounds in other attractions north crossing our continent to sco , among them magnifi cent drives , beautiful lakes , extinct volcanoes , geyser tones , sulphur moun tains , n boiling lake of the snmo mater ial , some wonderful caves , superb fish ing and hunting , nnd an atmosphere calculated to bring the blush of health to anj' but the most hopeless invalid. It promises to bo the great sanitarium of the west. The waters are charged with bicar bonate of sotlii. bicarbonate of potash , chloride of sodium and potash , sulphate of magnesia , lime , nlnmlna , silica , car bonate of iron , frco carbonic acid , and a multitude of other ingredients. They nro ti specific for the cure of nil mannoV of indigestion , kidney troubles , oven up to advanced symptoms of Bright'a dis ease , and diabetes , dropsy , anu a thou sand kindred ills. Soda Springs is an ideal health resort to which tons of thousands will journey to find all that could bo wished for by the most exacting. Its accessibility , the wildncss , singularity and sublimity of its bcouory ; the coolness , salubrity and invigorating influences of the cll- inato , its inviting baths , its veritable founts of youth , its dozens of rivers nnd lakes , alive with g.une trout , and its deep solitudes fof mountain nnd forest , only broken ns haunts for noble game these alone would render it n mecca to bo eagerly sought , paying nothing of its other regal charms which could bo elaborated in appropriate space. The Union Pacific company has erect ed n superb hotel at Soda Springs for the accommodation of the thousands of visitors. It is built in the Swiss chalet style , is three stories hiirh , surrounded on three sides bv n wide veranda , and surmounted with handsome towers. It is bo built that there are ito inside rooms , but from every side ono can look out upon the magnificent scenery. It is lighted with electric lights , and has all modern conveniences and com forts , and is kept by the Pacific Hotel company Markcl & Swobo which is sufficient guarantee that it is first class in every particular.

It is not necessary for mo to sponk of the various loans that wore negotiated , the taxes that wore imposed to raise the immense sums that were needed in the prosecution of the most expensive war that the world has over known.

Th entire nceuu la oiiu of most bewildering grand eur. eur.It Is owlnft to the enterprise of some of Omaha's llvo und cuerRotlc citizens that are furorod by this KlKi'titlc exhibition , the llko of Vhtchlms never buforo been seen In thu west , ami It Is just this samu enterprise that 1ms made Omaha the city that Ills. We have hero SOIHH of the ublost financiers , the shrewdest merchants ami the nbk-ht ptofus.sloiiul men to be found In the country , Amonv the latter wo wish to mention particularly Dr. Chatlcs M. Jordan , who for the pust venr has been the rosl > dent physician for thu widely known specialist , Dr. J. l-resap McCoy. Our readers have been presented every week with the testimonial of some well know n cltlrcn who hnd consulted and been treated by the doctor and what Is more. been cured b > him. Tlio 'utest ' to mid her testi mony to the list Is Mrs. II. II. Hull , whose place of residence Is No. IMu1 ! South JKth ) street. Mr. II. II. Hall , the husband ot Mrs. Hull , bus been employed by Harris A : Fisher , the well known meatmen , for over fourteen years , and Is well and favorably KUOWU in this city. Mis. Hull says : "Tor tnoro than a year T had been troubled with an nllllctlon of my head , throat nud stem ach. My head WUH continually btouped up und full of puln. I hud au awful palu over my eyfc all thu time. My throat was moro or less sore , and 1 was kept busy hawking aud spitting. Mv stomach was out of crdcrmost of the tlmu aud nothing that I could cut would ajjreo with mo ; my lungs felt sore and I begun to gut frighten ed ; my nose was stopped up , tlrst ono sldo then the other and 1 would hnvo a lightness on my chest that would scaicely allow mo to breathe. This went on this way fora while , nnd It got so bad that I could scarcely stand It any longer. 1 wns afraid the soi n ss in my lungs would go into consumption and when 1 got u cough to my troubles , become seriously alarmed and con sulted a physician , Ihadbeenfor some tlmo leading the testimonial otpersons cured by Dr. J. Crcsap McCoy and after considerable hesita tion 1 at lost concluded I would try him. I cullnd at hl olllco and wns examined by Dr. Jordan , who told me my trouble was caturih and that he could euro me. I believed , him and started treatment , and after thn Hist treatment I felt better and my friends noticed the chHiige ; the doctor thought ho would cure mo lu throe months but It only took two months and I am entirely cured. I do not hav nny pains lu my head or over my eyes and the hawking nnd spit ting isnllgonjand what is better , the soreness on jny lungs nnd tlio dllllcuUy I had In breath- lug has alt loft me , ami I am as well again ns over I was. You can have no Idea the ohnuge the doctor made lu ma in two months and I have etiotmh confidence in his ability to bcllevo he can do the same for anyone suffering as 1 did or even worse. " AH above stated Mrs. Hall resides nt No. 2009 South JTJth s'reet and will willingly and cheer fully coroboratu the above testimony to niivone who will take the trouble to addresser call on her at that address , " 1 Don't rinliovn It. " No doubt this is the remark maUemany times after reading our testimonials by skeptics "They buy tholr cases. " Just consider , for one moment , are the puoplo of tnls community so grnsnlng for money that they in general our cases are taken fiom the general public - would connive for a paltry Hum to hoodwink and lleece tholr fellow men ? Not only that , could we ntlord. In n monetary souse , not to speak of finding the pcrsou , to pay from teu to titty dollars lars for the use of a inuii's name and his man hood to cheat nnd swindle poor unfortunates ? No. Our testimonials nro given voluntarily by thankful patients whose names nnd addresses are given lu full , we do not give tlio initials fol lowed by a - , but the correct name nnd ad dress so thnt nil can find them. There are thoiiH- nnds of skeptics still lu the city who suiter from stopped up iiosen. with mucus collecting in their throats , making tholr voices thick nud husky and with a nasal twang , suffering from head ache , oftrn rlmdng , coughing , hawking and spit ting continually , others w.im discharges from their ears , more or less deaf , a great annoy ance to themselves and others , and why ? Sim ply because they ore skeptical ; they don't taVo the trouble to look our cases up , nnd even if they did , they oftentimes hug the small sum that would make them well until it groans. Health Is worth more than money , and at the low price for which relief can bo obtained it is a "blotch on his escutcheon" to let the.chauco goby. SOMETHING 1VOUTH KNOWING.
