To thi Kpitor ok The Srs Sir newspapers recorded tho other day tho result of a reconciliation effected In court by tho Judge before whom young couplo had gone In order to bo relieved from tho misery brought on by their marital relations. These to tho woman had caffscd acute physical as well as mental Buffering, for it as scarcely denied that the man had beaten her cruelly. Hut when the caso camo up for trial tho Judgo tried his hand as peacemaker, and a reconciliation was patched up between tho two. Last week tho husband was arrested in Chicago for having beaten his wife so brutally that her life was In danger. It appeared, moreover, that conduct of the kind which had led her to try to secure a release from him had begun immediately after tho Judge, whose business it was to carry out tho law, had succeeded in "reconciling" them.

It Is such an cxamplo of judicial Interference ns this that makes everybody admire the spirit of tho woman who only a few weeks ago refused to allow herself lo be bulldozed Into agreeing to return to her husband and live with him after his cruelty had driven her into court to seek protection. If the Judge who interested himself actively in trying to Induco her to go back to tliis man bad succeeded In his purpose, ho would doubtless havo considered this solution of the case a wholly admirable one. Doubtless eluillar cases tho Judges all take the same view of a result which drives tho woman back to tho man for whom she cares so little that sho has Invoked Ihe luw to get completely out of his power. A man and woman do not go Into a divorce court without having come to a fair understanding of the troubles between them. "Ituth-Ing into tho divorce court" is a mere phrase in Now York which our legal condition deprive of any real signlhVunce.

If a woman Is treated by a man with such habitual cruelty or brutality that she tries to get a divorce, the preliminaries to the lln.il step aro usually very thoroughly thought out. Is It the duty of a Judgo under the circumstances to attempt to Influence a woman against the clfort he has undertaken 1 Is It fusible that he ehonld Ijo able to know everything that has led her to tho step that tlnally brought her Into count Is not the cus-tomnry three-cornered conversation which takes place In the Judge's private room between tho Judge, the husband, and the wife completely antagonistic to tho iutcrc-nts of the woman! It is till) who will ulwnys yield first. Tho woman's naturo makes that almost a certain event. Ilotli tho Influence ot the Judgo and her feelings for licr husband make her tho weakest ot tho three. Inileud, It would Uko woman of unuMial strength of rhuracter to resist such an attack on her resolution.

Yet theso philanthropic Solons complacently announce that they have brought about "reconciliation" between the litigants, and tho reparation Is abandoned. Hut only for awhile. Tho wife- goes home to be clubbed over tho head again, thanks tn tho Judge's gracious intercession on behalf, bliu has enough not to be for a hecond time cajoled into reconciliation whidi plunges her into misery again, even if gives tho learned Judge the pleasure of tmuoiincing that hu has succeeded in pcrsuiidlng the husband nud wlfu to return to each other. Is there liny responsibility on a Judgo beyond deciding nn the legal phnscs of tho case and giving woman her dltorco if tho ot Ide-nco shows rh( deserves It or refusing to grunt It If tl.o grounds are not shown to exist! C'cr-talnl there is no fair opiortunlty for the woman on whom ho decides exercise Ids iiowers as a I caceiu.i'srr to got the justice which she has been compelled to si-en in lourt. If there were more women as bravo ns that ono who would not submit to tho Judge's nttompta to bulldoze her Into returning to her husband tho harm of this practice might bo diminished.

To the Kditoh ok The Hun Sir: In nn article In Till. Hu.v of Juno 'S7 concerning tho first Minnesota Keglmcnt it was state 1 that fifteen regiments lost 50 por cent, or more of their men on the Held of Gettysburg. From the list Is omitted tho Slxty-Urst Now York, which went into tho light with ninety-three men and camo out with thirty-throe, leaving on tho tlcld sixty killed and wounded. Theso figures aro from memory, hut aro approximately correct. Now, I havo no desire to take from the First Minnesota ono thing which honestly bolongs to It.

It was a great regiment. Gen. Walker, In his "History of tho Sccoud Corps," page IS, places it alongside of the Fifth New Hampshire, tho Seventh Michigan, the Twentieth Massachusetts, the Fifty-third Pennsylvania, and tho Sixty-first New York In naming the crack regiments of this renowned corps. It seems to mo, net ertheless, that If the Colonel quoted in the article Is a New Yorker und wants to exchange his discharge for a private soldier's in a great regiment, ho neeil not go nut of his own State. It is said that Secretary Stanton, speaking of tho Sixty-first New York, remarked that every man in It should bo made a llrlgadirr-Oeneral.

It has somewhat surprised me tliat New Yorkers know so little of tills, probably, the greatest regiment that left her borders. I will briefly give an account of four episodes In tbo regiment's carocr: Tho llrst occurred at Charles City cross roads, June 311, 16112. The Sixty-first was sent by Ocn. Sumner to assist Kearny in resisting the road riisUof Ixmgstreet In his attomrt to brnak Mc-Clellau's array Into pieces. It came into action after dark, and the llrst notice, the men had of an enemy In their front nas from the Colonel of the Sixth Ororla.

One company of the Sixty-first (III was on picket and did not get Into the fight, the darkness preventing our finding the regiment. Hr order of Gen. Caldwell wo Joined tho right ot the Fifth Now Hampshire I was with this company, and distinctly remember hearing some one say, "This way Slxty-flrstl" and Col.

ills artlclo remlndod mo of nn Incident that ocr currod over forty years ago, when I becamo ono of tho pallbearers at tho funoral of nn old Revolutionary officer by tho namo of Col, Fellows, who died in a dwolllng that then stood on tho site of tho Now York entrance of tho bridge. Ho wrote a book entitled "Tho Yell Removod, or Put. lleforo tho Bar." In It ho claimed that he was not the hero that somo historians havo depleted. It adduced much Important testimony from very prominent offlcors showing tho cowardly behavior nnd careless Indifference ot tho General at tho battlo of Hunker Hill. According to the statement of Gen.

Dearborn, who was a participant In tho fight, ho kept aloof from it, notwithstanding ho was repeatedly urgod by Gon, Prcscott, to bring up his troops to tho front. His plea was that he could not A.drlvo the devils up." To which Prescott replied that ho might then try to bring them Into action. Tho testimony was voluminous, and very damning to Putnam's character and career as a soldier. Washington could not havo been familiar with it when he assigned him to the command ot this city upon taking possession ot it in tho spring of TO. and oven placing him at tho head of the troops at the battle of Long Island, when, unfortunately, that skilful otllcor.

Gen. Greene, who was In chief command, was taken sick at that critical juncture. Putnam blundered by leaving the main roadway to Jamaica open and exposed, whereby the British had a clear course and were thus enabled to turn our right wing nnd causa tho disaster that lost us the day. His retirement trom the army Boon afterward may have boon duo to 111 health, but thero aro fair grounds for other surmises. His last oxplolt.

This fact I loarnod a few years slnco from a communication In a Greenwich newspaper, written by a Canadian, whoso grandfather wns said British officer. I noticed In TnE SfN ot Sunday last that tho people of Greenwich still bellovo In "Old Put." As ft Is the fnd nowadays for villages and towns to be historical, wo can pardon our Connecticut aspirants for their laudable ambition in that direction. Tho cold revision of history in this critical age doth pluck many a fine feather from an erstwhile plumed knight. ClIAKLES Vout.

June 29. 18U7. Paper Doals vs. Cedar Doats. To ma Editor or Tint Srpi Sir: Cornell won ln a paper boat against two cedar boats.

Cornell won last year la a paper boat sad established the record. Cornell hu won upward of forty victories to paper boats. Cornell began rowing In 1R73, winning with two paper boats In a field of seventeen slxoared shells, all tbo others being cedar. Yalo ha rowed a paper boat In all of her victories over Harvard. Yale's record at New London was won and made ln a par boat.

Harvard has rowed a paper boat In each of ber vlo-toriea over Yale (with ono exoeptlon. easily explainable). Every Intercollegiate rare between Yalo and Harvard for the pa't twenty years, with ono exception, has tieen won In paprr boat. Columbia has never won an elght-oared race except when rowing pajier lioats. All of Columt Si's victories ln fours since '70 have been won In papr bovts.

Every eight oared race of tbo national regattas has been won ln tiapQr 1 oitt.

In on they liniairted the beet make of English Niats, hut found the rtfrgltor so toor that tho paper boat was much the fatter.

They hate tested the aluminum tioat, but found that the freshman crew rowing the najier boat co'ilil easily lat the 'tarslly In the aluminum. This year they rebuilt the Ftigllsh boat as well as the aluminum liiat. giving to eanh all the advantages of rourtnet's superb rlcgfiirf. bet yet thej wore liea'crc the patier lioat, hut this was not enough, anil so a n-w cedar liont was lalllt by ore of the liest biilhlers 'n the country, aul a list inude with this, onl) to prove the pa-r lioat still the fastest, and ao Cornell brought four paiier loats to poughkeejiale, leaving all tho others at home, Th-t'nlten-lty of Pennsylvania, too. got the ferer for cedar boats, notwithstanding all of tholr vlo-torles lerelofore havo lieen In pate-r, and this year with their cedar toat lost to AtinaiMills In paper boats.

Hlneo they havo been on Ihe Hudson they, too, hare teen testtLg. with thn result that the new cedar lioat has Ueu illscirded for old paper boats, la which they will row their races It Is rejiorted thut Ya! notwithstanding all her vletorlos won In piij uis, baa niado a tost this year of the Fiullsb-rlpeil ap- boat, and as a result of the exp nnii-nt she as found the boat, so rigged, to 1m three lenxths owur to the nille than the eidar lioat. whleh.

A. Itaneroft, thus writes aftor tho race: "It Is Interesting to note thst the winning crow today rowed In a paper I oat, while the defeated crewa rowed in i-i dar boat. Nothing tt as better settled to the satlsfai'tlon of Yale and Harvard men twenty years ago. and for a number of years after that, than the superiority of a paocr eight." May we not, therefore, sum tho matter up by asking! If Yale and lbirvard had tho most power, pulled a more rapid stroke, and ero so much superior to Cor nell as to l- la a different class," may not the paper toat consistently claim some credit In the vletoay? 1 itor, uno 2H.

The reasons given aro twot Klrst. "Jewish children restless to sit still long enough for tbo usual session, anl second, that they are teased and auuoyed liccause of their nationality by the so called Christian children." The first reason Is hardly worth discussing. Children that can attend puhllo schools and sit out tha sessions there attentively ran probably endurs the shorter hours of tho Sunday school.

Tha aooond reason gives occasion fur a suggestion. Would tt not, perhaps, be money well spent lo df vote some portion of tho funds of this missionary society toward a mission to toach tolerance to the "so-called Christian children?" What the reverend doctor means by nationality" Is undoubtedly religion These little onea are ret lied liccause they are Jews, not because they are Americans or Itusslanaor Poles, 4c. I have no doubt I hat If the "New York City Mission and Traet Society among the Hebrews," or Ur. BchaurHer, will announce their Intention to Christian' lie and educato some of the so-called "Christian children" ln their duties tn other children that not only wilt fney find ample scope for their laudablo etfurti. hut also that amplo funds will be contributed for so laudable and truly an American purpose by the Jewa of this city.

i GOSSIP OF THE RUNNERS." cmaok TWO-rxAJt-ozna to xaojs VOn TO-DAY. A Rattttagf Pniranne Iter tndetteradence Day at heeawhratl Bar The Week la Pall ef Grand Racing rresne-eta Brighton's Card t-Yebsiele Itarter-a (lar the Realisation, Followers of racing; aro looking forward to a week of splendid sport, These are the closing days of the Coney Island Jockey Club's most successful meeting, and two ot tho most valuable prixes of the yenr aro to bo decided at Bheopsheod Bay. To-day tho pick of the two-year-olds meet for tho Great Trial Stakes over the Futurity course, and on Saturday next tho best ot tho Kastorn three-year-olds, barring Voter and On Deck, both of which were not nominated, will try conclusions ln tho Realization Stakes at ono mile and Ave furlongs. For the Great Trial to-day a romarkably good-looking and well-bred lot of youngsters will go to the post. Among them aro tbo stako winners Firearm, from August Belmont's stable, with an unbeaten record bohlnd him; PhUlp J.

lawyer's Handball, winner of somo of tho richest prizes for two-year-olds decided bo far this year and ono ot tho most consistent youngsters In training; M. Dwycr's Previous, winner of tho Great American Stakes; It, Itoso's Archduko. a winner nnd a halt brother to the mighty sprinter Clifford; tho Morris pair, Bowling Brook and Varus; John McCatTcrty's crack filly Kltcfoot. John G. FoUansbco's smashing colt Jlurlllo, K.

Qraves's Commorce, Jno. K. Mnd-den's Hamburg, Charles Flolschmann Son's Georgo ICocne. Lewis Elmoro's Laudemann, L. W.

P. Thompson's The Huguenot, and Marcus Daly's Ally Briar Sweet, a sister to Br. Has-brouck. This Is tho best field of two-year-olds that has gono to tho post this year East or Wost. Firearm, by tho easo with which ho shouldered 120 pounds and won in a romp, Urmly established himself ln tho hearts ot the talent last woek, and this spanking son of Rayon d'Or nnd Fides will probably bo the favorite at post time to-day.

Ho has speed, size, and ability to carry weight about all thtt ono looks for In a high -class rnccborso and If ho is beaten to-day thero will bo sorrow ln tho camp of tho plungers. Handball hoa been a singularly consistent colt, hut Klrcirm beat him for tho Nursery, nnd other colls havo boaton htm at times since. Mr. Dwycr is ot the opinion that Handball sbould havo to-day an unbeaten record, and thinks that tho son of Hanover should bo waited with, instead ot being rushod to tho front at tho start. Tho colt Is under-sized, but It must bo admitted that ho packs weight remarkably well.

Previous seems to bo held safo by Hamburg, tho last named having beaten tho son of Meddler qulto decisively on both occasions of their mooting, Wilhite, howover, cannot do justice to such a colt ns Hamburg, and unless Mr. Maddon puts up a heavier jockey to-day his colors will scarcely bo prominent. Archduke has long been selected by some cry closo observers as the ultimato champion of tho roar, and those people all say. "Walt until tho big fellow gets used to tho gamo and knows what's wanted of him, and you will seo a rnccborso. It is well known that this colt has repeatedly shown halves ln 48 seconds at the Bay, and Trainer Rogors makes no secret ot tho fact that ho expects a lot ot the son of Iroquois.

John McCatfcrty's smart Ally Kltcfoot appears to Im qulto tho peer of her full sister Winged Foot nnd tho daughter of Buchannn and her wily Jockcy-owncr-tralncr must not no overlooked to-day. Varus Is not as goo.luiolt by good deal as his stable companion, I tow Hug Brook, although earlier In tho season he classed ns ono ot tho boat of his age In training. Ho ran Ills last race and won It In blinkers, but dlsplacd even then a currish streak und evidently wanted to etoti when hard prcs-ed by Groat Bend and Wild Warrior. Bon ling llrook looks like a useful colt and Is one that ehould Improvo from now on unloss ho gets loo much of It. Murillo is highly thought of bv his hand-somo oung nttnor.

and If Jack colt should win, thousands would bo heartily glad. Murillo Is nut unllko Morcllo. his dead slro. nnd this colt cannot help developing Into very useful horse. The going to-dny should suit him.

as ho likes a fast track. Georgo Keeno Is frood colt, ono that the best of thorn cannot tako Ibvrties with, and ho has beaten Hamllmll and other good ones with a slight call in tho weights. Comtnerco is a practically unknown third ln a maiden race a few ilnj ago. Ie Is from the stablo of Graves tho former ownors of Georgo Keeno. I-audemann is ono ot tho improving kind, coming with qulto a rattle at tho finish in his last two races.

Briat Hwcol showed a worldof spued in tho early part of oneof her races at Graves-end. and Marcus Daly's money is snld to havo I lieen responsible for ihe short price sho had In the speculation that day. She will havo run from end to end Tho Huguenot Is tho very handsome brother to Henry of Navarre, trained by James Itowc. His form in the two races ln which he hns participated does not nugurthnt ho will beatlmt-clnsshorse. Navarre himself was not a track two-)cnr-old by any menus.
