We we-e called up at 2 a m. the 22d.
had a good warm breakfast, and ut o
o'clock Companies L, D, K and M,with
to fiuns of the Utah batter', started
wo-t. We went about three miles,
folljwirg the road, then the four com
panies left the road and turned south.
The battery followed the road about
one mile, further to whore Company II
was stationed. All the companies de
ployed as skirmishers. The plans
vi re to !.' south about three miles
and then by the right tlmk. The
Utah biltery was to go to the south of
the San Juan road, accompanied by
Coin panics II and (r. The plans laid
ou i would put Companies L, I), K and
Mon the east, the battery on toe
north and the Calif rnia and Wash
ington regiments oil the west of the
insurgents. Just after dayiight while
we were still going to the south Com
panies K and M were fired upon by
the insurgents from t he left. It was a
omploto surprise to us, and for a few
minutes both companies ve:e in eon-fu-ion
and lost from the commind, but
it did not take to ret together
uml lurk on th.e firing line. We ad
va ne d u pon the. hill where the In
dians were without tiring-a shot. All
tnis time we were under a heavy ti.'C,
but the Indians retreated and as 90on
as we tot on the. hill we fired volley
after vo'.lev into them, advancing at
the sum? lime. They were soon be
yond the next, hill. Here they tried
to make a stand. Their bugle sounded
the assembly and we could hear their
oHieer- yivin commands, and here
they stucK until we were within
seventy-live or one hundred yards of
them. Kight heie a grand mistake
was made on our part. The Indians
were standing up, bu". we could not
tell through the smoke whothey were,
and tho word went down the line not
to live that they were Company L.
Had v. e known who they were wo
eou'.d have slaughtered them. This
is the liist time we ever saw them
stand up uader tire, and that led us to
believe that th y were our own boys.
When we got up to where they were
tt.ey were gone, except two lading
sid'? by side, one shot through the
hond and the other through ttie breasl.
Thei: guns a;;d 300 rounds of brass
ball shells were laying between them.
Company G killed five, so there was
seven dead Indians on this bill. From
hero wo had a running fight for about
three inius through bamboo thickets,
rice fields and deep ravines until wo
reachel the valley. Hero we quit
thjra and started up the river for
camp. Company D and part of Com
pany M foi med a skniiii-h line he
tw en the ii ver and the hills on the
west- about 300 yards. We h;.d i ot
gone more than a half mile when Vti
weie liied upon from th j east side of
th river. Here is whore ono of the
boys ftjni Company i) got then in the
nock and died the next day. Our
skirmish lino was swung around to tho
right and wo began tiring volleys into
them. 'J ho rest of the com panics came
up and formed on our right and left.
The woods were fuli of Indians on the
other side of the rivor, and their bul
lets were so thick that it seemed im
possible to stick a linger up without
having it bhot off. Here wo lay for
about an hour, firing volley after vol
ley, when to our surprise wo were
liied upon from behind on this fdde of
the river. Tho Indians wo had just
sto;neG ' chasi ng had f illowed us up
and came in behind us. Wo woro run
ning t-hort ef ammunition, so we
pulk-d away from tho river in good
order by getting up and walking away
under a heavy lire from the other side
! of ilie river. Not a man was hit
something that seems impossible.
Some of the boys started to run, but
Colonel Stotsonberg stopped them
mighty quick. I want to say right
hero that there i-i not a braver man on
the islands than our Colonel Stotsen
berg. IJacK where the Indians tried
to make a stand behind tho hill, and
wo thought they were Co'mpany I.., tho
colonel cune up and heard someone
say they were Company H. He said
"to hell with them, fire on them,"' but
it was too late, they were gono. The
colonel knew where Company Li was.
Whenever one or two co npanies go
out he is always with them, and when
a light is going on ho is right in it.
Well when wo left tho river we started
for camp. The Indians followed us
and kept tiring od us. Company L
quietly laid down behind some rice
ridge? and waited until they got right
up to t hem then opened on them. 1 n
dians could bo seen going in every
direction. We were not bothered with
theiu any more. Some of the boys
only had eight or ten rounds left. We
were all very tired. I know now what
it is to be thirsty. We had all emptied
our canteens long before we got to
camp, and as it was so awful hot we
suffered more or less for the want of
water. saw one of our soldiers, who
he was I don't know, walic down to the
river under that awful fire and fill two
canteens. Ho never got a scratch.
That shows how bad he wanted wr.tr.
February 2. Was on outpost all
day yesterday. Tho company down on
tho road had a hot time. They were
under fire all day. 1 he timber was
full of Indians, and they were taking a
crack at our boys every chance they
got.
I send you Maniia t apers. They
will exp'.aiu the situation here better
than I can. List night tho Uta.i ba -ley
dropped shells about two miles
down the valley where there was
quite a- body of Indians. The shells
burst right among them and scattered
them.
The pumpiag station pumps the
water up tho hill about so veuty-five
feet. Hero it runs into a tunnel. In
some places the tunnel is 120 feet
under ground, while at others it is but
ten or fifteen feet. It goes through
solid reck. The country here is all
covered with largo rock, and I think
it is volcanic, as they are full cf
cinueis. Where we are camped the
toil is from three inches to a foot in
depth under this is rock.
Well the Indians are keeping us
quite busy. Will write whenever I
have time. Love to all, l''HAK

jority of thirty for mayor; Girardet
was elected treasurer by a majority
of thirteen; Peck outran his opponent
for clerkship by fifteen votes, while
Stoner won the aldermanic plum by a
scratch of two votes. W. J. Ambler,
republican,-of the Fir6t ward did like

it is generally conceded that the
"drys" have it.
The election of members of the
school board resulted in the choice of
Wm. Marshall and II. S. Wilkinson
by pluralities of six and eight re
spectively. There was no contest over
anything except the choice of men.

The Real "A old Kirk."
Why is Scotch whisky known as
"Auld Kirk '? The author of "Oor Ain
Folk" gives the clue. An old Glenesk
minister used to speak of claret as
"puir washy stuff, fit for English Epis
copawlians and the like;" of brandy as
"het and fiery, like thae Methodists;"
"sma' beer" was "thin and meeserable,
like thae Baptists," and so on through
the whole gamut of drinks and sects;
but invariably he would finish up by
producing the whisky-bottle, and, pat
ting it, would exclaim, 'Ah, the rael
Auld Kirk o Scotlar.1. sir! There's
naething beats it."

When Robert V. Dowdy, a lieuten

his examination for a promotion to a
captaincy, he was found to be physic
ally unfit and recommended for re
tirement. Before all the red tape to
that end could be gone through with,
however, his regiment went to Cuba
and he with it. He was in the wiiUe
of the campaign and all the fighting,
suffering and exposure, and just as
he returned to this country the i-a-pers
for his retirement were is-ued.
The president was convinced that the
man who was able to go through the
Santiago campaign was physically fit
for promotion, and nominated him to
be a captain.

near the door of a crowded street car.
A lady elbowed her way in, resplen
dent in her own beauty and a tailor
made suit. The men who had seats
were industriously pretending to read
the daily paper, and she was beside
the big workman when she put her
hand up for the strap. "It's sorry I
om, mum," he said, "thot I hev no
sate as I can git up and give yez, but
all the empty ones was took when I
got aboord." The lady assured him
she was just as much obliged, and
then smiled at him, whereupon three
men suddenly discovered her presence
and insisted on her having a seat.
