Sixth at the Alamo City.

The gallant sixth under COM
mand of Lieut.. Col. Chas. w.
Miner, Numbering 1899 officers
and men, have arrived at San An
tonic and are now at the post.
The arrival of the regiment was
the signal for the gathering of
thousands to greet it, and de-
brakation took place amid the
strains of martial music and the
cheering of the multudes. Yield
ing to the earnest solicitations of
the citizens, Col. miner marched
his men through the city to the
post. The city authorities, the
fourth Texas infantry, under
command of Col. John G. Ed
monds, and Capt. Breetss light
battery of artillery, which fought
with the sixth at Santiago, headed
the march. The entire distance,
some four miles, was lined with
people and the cheering was con-
tinuous. The flag of the regiment
which was tho first to float from
San Juan hill, was conspicuously
displayed and constantly cheered,
for it told the story of the regi-
ment on July l too plainly. 1t
was tattered and shot-riddled,
while stains of blood were yet
visible upon it. Telegraphic or
ders were received from Wash
ington suspending previous orders
assigning one company each to
Forts Bliss, Mcintosh, Ringgold
and Brown, ordering the entire
command to take station here.
While this may be but temper
airy move, still the opinion is pre-
valent in army circles that either
the third or fourth Texas volun.
teers will be mustered out OIL
moved elsewhere, and another
regiment of regulars ordered tc
garrison the post along the Ric
Grande.

with a flask of mescal. He tasted
of it, and the testimonial that
was written on his face said that
it was good. So good was it in
fact that he took it to bed with
him, and by and by he executed a
war dance on the Pullman couch.
His head hit the bottom side of
the upper berth and his lance be-
came entangled in the sheets and
curtains. He sprnng into the

but for the arrival of the con-

apartment of the day coach and
there locked up. Eight hours
later he woke up, and his grunts
were docile and piteous. When
he was released he made a dash
for the mirror, reprinted his face
and sullenIy planted himself in
his seat to cogitate in choice Ma
layese on the oriental proposition
that it is better to suffer for the
