Captain Lee of the Royal Artillery Con-
firms Opinions Of Our Cuban Allies.

A mile 10 the north of Ell Caney, on
the summit of the first foothill. stood "A
blockhouse OF the smallest type, with a
garrison OF ten men at the most. The
task of attacking this fortress was in
trusted to several hundred Of our Cuban
allies. who advanced against IL at the
first peep of day. These men were in
fantry. excellently armed and equipped
by the United States government, but
they apparently misunderstood the sit
uation N adopted the more dignified.
and possibly co~ngenial role of field ar
tillery. In pursuance of this idea they
occupied an excellent artillery position
about one mile to the east Of the block
house. and chung to il with unparalleled
tenacity throughout the day. Taking
every advantage of cover. they subject
ed the distant stronghold to a ceaseless
n whitening fire from their newly ac-
quired Springfields. to the great detri-
ment. fear. of their own shoulders. and
10 the vast Indifference of the enemy.
Possibly the blockhouse was struck
certainly none of it's upa were
and beyond the occasional and con-
temptuous reply Of a single Mauser
shot, ii is doubtful IL the garrison fully
realized that IL was the object of attack.
AT about 2 i'm the afternoon a messen-
ger arrived, breathless. TO state that
the Cuban forces had run out of ammu-
milton, and needed a fresh supply at

A PECULIAR CASE.
h Horses Were Stolen hut the Officers
Can DO Nothing

Can DO Nothing.
Great FAILS, Oct. 1.-The sheriff's Of
fee has been engaged on a peculiar
case for the past two DAYS. Jack
Laurentz. who conducts the Ten Mile
house up the Missouri, and who par
ticipated in the hunt after the horse
thieves a few weeks ago. came into the
sherin's office on Thursday and made
the announcement: I'VE have more
use for the guns" While the officers
were opening up the arsenal. he pro-
ceeded to explain. Some one had en-
tered his barn the previous night and
had taken therefrom a mare and her
colt. Laurentz was positive that the
animals a been stolen and accord
lngly the sherin went out to his place
that evening.
After some little investigation IL was
found that Laurentz was renting the
place which he runs from NJ. r. Griffin.
He has a two years lease and IL includ-
ed not only the use Of the place. but of
the horse as well. Griffin. so the off,
GERS state. had had in his employ a
Frenchman. to whom he owed consid-
cradle money as wages. He told the
Frenchman that he might have the
mare and her colt in part payment OF
the debt, but that he would have to
get them at night. OF at some time
Laurentz was not on hand TO pre-
vent their departure. Accordingly the
hired man went and got his wages in
the manner prescribed.
The case and these facts were placed
before the county attorney. NJ. NJ.
Lyter, who Informed Laurentz that he
had no recourse I'm criminal action. but
could only recover by a civil suit.
While this Is possibly true. the ques-
tion presents itself as to what would
have been done providing Laurentz a
discovered the theft or whatever IL may
have been and had gone out and shot
down the Frenchman while in the act
OF breaking into the barn. L%aurentz
moreover claims that the colt is the
property Of his nife. 60 whom IL was
presented by Griffin in the presence of
several witnesses. So far nothing has
been done to recover the property.

Curious rredicameni OF a Young Man In

There Is a young man working in st.

The hrst of each month regularly fot
several years an eNpressman has called

has always received and receipted for

LAWYER FELL 70 HIS DEATH.
REMAINS FOUND BY rRAINMEN
Attorney J. II. Adams of Spokane
Dropped From the Car Platform
Eight Miles West of Hope, Idaho
Down a Rocky Embankment.

Spokane, Nov. l4.-It is feared that
Jay H.. Adams. the well known local at
torney, lost his life last evening by fall
ing from the west bound Northern Pa
citit. train at some point along the road
between Hope, Idaho. and this city. 1T
is. known he entered the train at Hope
and that he was not on board when the
train reached Spokane. The railroad
company has sent out two special en-
gines and put large number of section
hands to work searching along the track,
but nothing definite has been heard here
of the result.
Mr.. Adams had been to Hope with G.
S. Gabbart, on business. They entered
the. train together at that city and sat
down in the same seat in the coach. Mr..
Adams, shortly after the train started
westward, left his seat to 60 back to the
diner, leaving his overeoat on the seat.
That was the last time Mr.. Gabbart saw
him.
p. When the train reached Spokane Mr..
Adams did not appear. A search of the
train showed he was not on board. The
railroad officials were notified and train.
men along the line were instructed to run
slowly and carefully examine the track
between Hope and here as they. passed
along. A freight train. which received
these orders at. Athol. reached Spokane
before midnight and reported that no
trace of the missing man could be found.
