Indeed, THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE paid her $100. I remember, for writing a New Year's article for that paper. And she wrote an article on the laying of the Atlantic cable, which was quite noteworthy. So the fact that Mrs. 'Willard's school was her choice is much in its favor.

It Is rather unusual to have two ladies of title in town at the same time who bear the same title through the fact of their having married the same man.

Likely to be a bit embarrassing, not only to the noble lady but to all of us meeting either of them and not being sure whether it is lady No. 1 or lady No. 2. Still. there are open arms to receive Mildred, countess of Gosford, who arrived this week from London to make the rounds of the town.

DEAR jULIA i I want to tell you about the Rucker-Sheridan wedding reception which we nttended last evening. It was held at Gen. Sheridan's residence, 708 Michigan avenue, and was a most interesting occasion, due to the fact that the bridegroom has attained the next to the highest round of the ladder of preferment In the United States army. The bride, Miss Irene Rucker, who is just as sweet as she can be, is a daughter of Gen. Rucker.

and is, of course, many years younger than Gen. Sheridan. The wedding was a small one and was celebrated at the Rucker house on Michigan avenue. We were not Invited to the ceremony. I think few besides the families of the contracting parties, superior army officers and officers of the general's staff were invited.

Bishop Foley of the Catholic diocese of Chicago officiated. Shortly after greeting the few friends there. the newly married couple drove to the groom's housetwo blocks away their only bridal tour. Gen. Sheridan had given verbal invitations to his friends for this part of the festivities, and many of them In as we did, to offer congratulations and good wishes.

The bride's gown was creamy white satin, elaborately made, with a long train, and her veil of illusion was most becoming. Gen. Sheridan is getting rather portly and elderly, but in spite of that he looked very distinguished in his uniform, that of a lieutenant general of the United States army. Of course, the presence of so many army officers made the scene a gay one, with so much gold braid and the glitter of buttons. The bride received many wonderful gifts.

President and Mrs. Grant sent a set of pearls pia and earrings and our friend Mr. Fullerton of St. Louis sent a beau. tiful bronze inkwell.

Miss Wadsworth of Chicago gave the bride the most wonderful thing 1 have ever seena gold box with a crystal cover in which the bride's name, Irene. was engraved. The bridegroom lavished gifts on his fair young bride. among these being a with brown satin lining. A pair of dashing sorrel horses went with this gift.

Some of the gowns worn by the ladies present at the reception were most elegant Mrs. Gen. W. T. Sherman, for example, was dressed in a handsome toilette of garnet velvet.

trimmed with yards and yards of thread lace. Her hair was ornamented with a cluster of flowers. Her earrings, brooch and bracelets were of diamonds. This afternoon 1 made a few calls on the south side, using our new victoria for the first time. Our coachman, Michael, a son of Erin, was dressed in hie spandy new livery, maroon in color, to match the trimmings of the carriage.

Kimball a representative of "Brewster of Broome" sold us the outfit and Mr. Kimball says It is the handsomest he has seen In Chicago. The harness is genteelly silver plated, not too ornate, which is vulgar. I think. It has the initial engraved on it.

I felt much Uplifted in spirit as I fared forth on my rounds this afternoon. I called on Mrs. George M. Pullman in her wonderful brown stone Letters from Martha Freeman Is- mond to her friend, Julia Boyd, of New York. Chicago, June 4, 1875.
