Cautious

Two cautious individuals have agreed
to enter matrimony in Northampton,
Mass, under very odd conditions. The
investment filed in the Hampshire reg
istry OF deeds by them reads: Mar
rage being intended between For
dyce Whitmarsh of Easthampton and
A. Minerva Cleveland of Plainield,
the following agreement was made Ju-
ly 8: All real and personal estate shall
remain the separate property Of the
party owning the SANE to the same
extent as before marriage. Property
acquired by either party shall remain
the property of the person acquiring
the same. Each party can manage or
dispose Of his property without CON
sulting the other. The said Whit
marsh will pay his wife during the
first five years of their married life so
cents per week, payable each week. for
her personal use. Five years from the
date of their marriage he will pay to
his wife the sum of $500, Or in case
of the death of either party it will be
payable from or to the estate of the
deceased. After five years the hus-
band is to pay his wife $1.50 per week."

rest Gen. Shafter, in pursuance of his
aggressive policy, ordered an advance,
and On Friday night the advance on
Santiago began. Roosevelt's Rough
Riders, who were among the first to
land, urged thai they be sent to the
front at once. so they were ordered to
march over the foothills, supported by
the First and Tenth Regular Cavalry,
and the Second Massachusetts volun-
teers.
The night before Guasimas General
Young sent for Colonel Wood, of the
Rough Riders. and in substance said to
him:
Colonel. ! have reliable Information
that the Spaniards have taken a very
strong position beyond Sevilla, near the
junction OF the trail over the mountain
at Siboney and the valley road, and ex-
| pect to inflict a defeat on us there If we
advance. th!ak the brigade can fight
the first battle CT the wal tomorrow
morning and drive the enemy back on
Santiago"
General Young got his information
about the position Of the Spaniards
from General Demetrl Castillo's scouts
and 1t proved to be correct. Colonel
Woods regiment climbed the hill at ST.
honey soon after sunrise and the Tenth
took the valley road, starting later.
Behind the Rough Riders at some dis
lance marched the First. Tie country
In which the troops were to operate can
best be described as a chaos of high
hills and mountain peaks. So prodi-
gally are they massed about that it
should not be difficult for a resourcefui
and determined enemy to annihilate an
invading army. Colonel Woods men
marched with heavy packs at the regu-
lation step and suffered terribly from
the heat. Many of them threw away
their blankets or coats on the way and
ten per cent fell out, so that at one
time a considerable halt was neces-
sary.
The Tenth cavalry, Injured to hot
weather marching, went along cheerily
enough, but when the battle began
they were some distance behind the
Rough Riders. The Tenth had, how
ever. a rough road TO march over. That
which Colonel Woods regiment took
was a mere trail through the woods,
where It was Hot always possible for
four men to march abreast. Let it be
understood that the Rough Riders were
proceeding along one of the ridges, of
which there are so many in the valley
that ends at Santiago. The course of
the Tenth was in the bottom CT the val

LANDING OF SKATERS ARMY
The First Battle with the Spaniards, Which
Resulted In a Victory For the Rough
Riders and Regulars.

After the first fierce attack on the
marines at Guantanamo their position
was SO strongly intrenched that Gen.
the landing Of his army and supplies.
The Decentralization of the troops, which
arrived from Tampa on transports, ac-
companied by a strong convoy of war
ships, began on Wednesday, June e.
The cooperation of the United States
army and navy and their Cuban allies
was thorough. So well laid were the
plans of Gen. Shafter, Admiral Samp-
son and Gen. Calixto Garcia, and so ex-
actly we're they carried out even to the
minutest detail, that every possible
move on the part Of the Spanish forces
was f~orestalled.
The resistance to the landing was Of
the feeblest nature, the Spanish garri-
N contenting themselves with a half
hearted reply as they retreated before
the combined fire of our land and sea
forces.
At the close the 5000 United States
soldiers were encamped upon the hills
about Baiquiri. To deceive the enemy
the coaling ships were sent to the west
of the entrance to Santiago Bay in or
der to give the impression that they
were transports and that the troops
were to be put ashore there.
The decoy squadron took up its po-
sition at daylight, and as soon as the
S%paniards observed 1t they concentrate
ed a heavy fire upon the GOLFERS, but
without effecting any damage to them
or their crews. The GOLFERS were far
out. Meanwhile the troopships moved
eastward out of sight Of land, lining up
finally of Bacanao, the inlet just west
Of Playa del Este, where the cable sta
ton had been established.
The weather and condition OF the sea
were just what was required for such
an undertaking. The landing was to
be made under Brig.-Gen. Lawton, while
Gen. Shafter, on board the headquarters
ship Seguranca, supervised the opera
lions.
On Thursday $1,000 more troops on
the transports were landed, making a
total of 10000 soldiers. After a nights

CHILD VIEW OF HEROES.

Young Pupils of Kansas City Schools
Give Interesting Opinions.
With a view to ~ascertaining what
the children are thinking about" Super
intendent Greenwood Of the public
schools Of Kansas City recently sub
mitted to the pupils the following ques-
lions: J.. What picture do you like the
best? 2. Tell why you like 1t best. 5.
Can you tell the name OF any other pic
ture! 4. Write the name Of our IA
vorite hero. s. What do you think
makes a hero? 6. What book or books
have you read that told Of heroes!
Many Of the W reflected the ef-
feet of the war news on the minds Of
the little ones, for the majority OF them
selected Dewey as their favorite hero.
Washington still holds his place in the
hearts Of the Kansas City tots, hun
dreds OF them having named him as
their ideal; in fact, there was scarce
ly a paper that did not contain some
reference to "the Father of His Coun-
try" Lincoln and Daniel Boone got no
little recognition, and an unexpected
religious sentiment (for such a remote
settlemenD developed in the papers Of
many of the youthful propounders of
the problems submitted. In answer to
the first question, What picture do
you like best?" the llial and reveren-
tial spirits were shown in many in
stances by the answers. Mother" and
the Saviour" The child's conception
of a hero and his method Of expressing
It are interesting features Of the an
swers to Mr.. Greenwood's questions. A
lad 10 years old says that Dewey is his
hero because he done something great
for the Americans" Another says
What makes a hero is good character,
good looks and good COMPANY" One
boy says: when a boy is good in his
lessons and attends to his wi affairs
he stands a fair chance to become a
hero" People that you like makes a
hero," says Corinne May West, IL years
old. ITO make a hero q person should
be we'll educated and very thorough in
history" says another. One girl thinks
that IAN honest and a good-headed man

Is to ignore some notable examples OF
the past. Many years ago the editor
of an English paper which throve upon

all the journalistic" nastiness in this

situations in England.) In the witness
