SPANISH WE'RE TRAPPED.
Troops Led Into Ambush and Suffered
Heavily.

Heavily.
Frederick W. Lawrence, the Havana cor
respondent of the New York Journal, sends
the following story of the recent defeat Of
the Spanish by General Jose Maceo's
forces:
The Spanish defeat at Cacarajicara was
the result of a carefully laid plan on the
part of General Maceo. General Saurez
Inclan was led into a trap.
i am able now to tell the story of the
battle as IT really occurred. information
having been sent me from Maceo's COM
mand. The press censorship at Havana
prevented this before. A Havana man
presented himself at Spanish headquarters
at Bahia Honda and requested an inter-
view with General Inclan, and told him
that Maceo was in a ridicuously weak posi-
ton in the Cuco Hills. He said that It
would be an easy matter to capture or
eXterminate the entire army.
The man offered TO lead the Spanish
troops by safe path TO Maceos strong
hold. The offer was accepted and the march
commenced. 1nclan was suspicious Of his
guide and ordered two soldiers to keep
sharp watch or him.
The troops were led far up into the hills
until they had gained position half a
mile below a level plateau and were be-
tween two hills that formed prccIpitous
walls, right and left. Inclan had just
asked the guide how much further he
would have to march, and the man was
engaged in pointing TO the plateau ana
explaining that that was the place where
Maceo was, when, from the hills above the
troops OH both sides came perfect hail of
bullets. The Spaniards dropped On every
side.
Instantly General Inclan knew he had
been betrayed. Turning TO where the
guide had stood, he was about to order
him to be put to death, when he saw that
he had disappeared and that his two SOL
dier guards lay dead. Sharpshooters spe-
cially detailed for that purpose had picked
off the guards in order that the guide
might escape.
Gen Inclan was in a desperate position,
from which only savage fighting could ex-
tricate him, so he gave orders to march
foru ard and show no mercy to anybody
While marching up the hill the Sp5niards
were subjected TO a whitening FIRE from
surrounding hills, 10 which they were able
to make only feeble response. They did
rough shooting, but very little damage,
because The rebels were securely prot led
behind trees rocks and shrubbery.
| OF the l,5o0 men who started from Rahia
Honda, fully 200 lay dead and dying on the
mountain trail. When they finally reached
the plateau the advance guard found a
stockade fort, but not a man In II. fl had
been occupied, but the insurgents had
abandoned 1t to go out on the hillside and
! give lnclan hotter reception.

HIKE YPNO1ISM.
Hnhits Thnt Appenr Almos Mypl

Habits That Appear Almost Hypnotic.
 The tenacity with which some habits stick to people or people stick to the habits, is very remarkable, particularly the tobacco and coffee habit.
 People act almost as if they were in reality under hypnotic spell They promise themselves and friends time and again that they will leave off, when they find health forsaking them, hut they make one excuse or another and keep on the dreary way as if guided by an unseen spirit of evil.
 Physicians realize the uselessness of treating a patient for any of the null titude of nervous diseases so long as the poisonous alkaloids of tobacco and coffee are being taken into the system, even in minute doses,
 It is a simple matter to break the coffee spell if the food drink, Postum, the health coffee made by the Postum Cereal Co.,, linn, of Battle Creek, Mich, is used in it's place. This is a fac simi- le of fine Mocha coffee in looks when brewed, and changes to the rich golden brown of old Java when cream is added. Being made wholly of grains intended by the creator for mans sub sstence, it makes red blood quickly and is fattening and nourishing. The muddy complexion disappears and in its place comes the clear skin of health with rich blood coursing back of it. Many people are sick and do not know that 1t is the insidious poison of coffee that prostrates stomach and liver and causes 1t. They laugh at first, but a trial of a week without coffee and us- ing the fooddrink, Postum, makes one wake up to a great big live fact.
 The children can sip from papa's or mama's coffee cup, if it happens to contain Postum and their little bodies will grow round and fat under the nourishment of the pure grains, but it is a heartless proceeding to feed the tender bodies on coffee, as every one knows the puny, sickly looks of coffee drinking children.
 Let people adopt healthful food and drink and throw phyTic to the dogs" ]"
 "Just as good' as Postum Cereal are words used to defraud the public
