Correspondents.

A Former Butte Man One Of the War
Correspondents.
Many people In Butte will remember
Joe Quail. who several years ago was a
reporter on the Butte Miner. Mr.. Quail
Is now wal correspondent for the New
York Journal. which paper last wednes-
day ran a cut OF him and the following
little sketch:
THE Spaniards mad a desperate at
tempt to capture Joseph n. Quail. one
OF the Journals war correspondents.
Quail got possession of some valu-
able news In a Juan. Porto Rico. but
was unable to send II to the Journal by
cable on account OF the news censor.
With the same daring that Ia marked
his newspaper career he started in a
Journal dispatch boat to st. Thomas.
where his news could be sent to his
paper as 1t really had occurred. Mid
way between st. Thomas and Porto Rico
a Spanish man-of-war was sighted. II
made for the little dispatch boat. Many
times IL ordered IL to come to a halt, but
Quail is not the man to recognize de-
feat. He has never been defeated in
anything. Inc IL was not for a Spaniard
to be his victor. Fast indeed the little
boat steamed. and fast the big war
ship came on behind. Then the dispatch
boat showed her heels to the Spaniard.
On to 81. Thomas she went and Quail
sent his news to the Journal"
