come prepared to buy, we struck bar
gain for the lease of his establishment
for three days for $25. The printing
Office was about six blocks from the
palace, one-story building, and con-
sisted of an editorial room, composing
and press rooms. Everything was some
thing on the plan of our American Of
fees, although the cases are laid diff
ferently, and it took us some time to
Americanize the arrangement of the
type. Sergt. James Stuart was chosen
business manager; Corporal f. G. Guy
kendall, editor-in-chief; Private Fred j..
McCutcheon, local editor; Sergt. John
BARRON, mechanical superintendent;
Privates A. Radigan and George Maurer,
compositors, and Thomas Butler, in
terpreter.
with this force we set to work, and
for three days and nights--from a. M
until IL p. m.-we pounded away until
we had got our paper ready for the
press. With perspiration streaming
from every pore and bodies racked with
symptoms of fever, we stuck to the
task, nothing but the hard floor of the
office for bed no blankets, no nothing,
The typesetting being finished, we
wondered who would turn the press
but not man among us had strength
enough to give it single revolution
While discussing this problem, the 10
cal editor brought in two healthy
Cubans, who CALAMITY offered to aid
the 'Americanos, and in a short time
Co. f Enterprise was being shout
ed in the Spanish language OIL
the streets of Santiago. We turned
out 5000 copies, and brought home
from the island about 1000 pa

army and navy. The next day we
wendell our way back to the camp, ano
presented Gen. Shafter with copy o.
the Enterprise. He complimented us
on our undertaking, and after thai
nothing was too good for us.
With this graphic account of thu

modestly refrained from saying more

TRAINING THE YOUNG.
Road instruction In Necessity Where
Permanent Results Are 10 be
Accomplished.

II Is not to be denied that wheelmen
sometimes feel discouraged at the re-
suits obtained from ten years of per-
sistent agitation, much thankless la
Dor and considerable expenditure Of
money in the cause of highway i'm
provement. At times the efforts that
have been put forth seem to have been
out of all proportion to what has been
accomplished. The temptation, then,
is strong to relinquish the work en-
tirely to those who will be the most
immediate and chief beneficiaries of
it; but, knowing that the withdrawal
of their assistance would be the re-
moval of one of the strongest supports
OF the cause, they turn again 20 renew
their efforts in its behalf.
There are some things connected
with the road problem that are better
understood to-day than they were q
few years ago, and they have brought
to wheelmena realization that there
are many sections Of the country in
which it is well-nigh impossible to in
terest or instruct the people on the
subject, and where it may take gen
GRAFTON or two to convince them that
bad roads cost money while good
roads save it. Therefore, while in no
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1898-10-20

degree abating their own interest in
highway improvement, cyclists find It
for their own interest in such districts
to secure the construction of cycle
side paths. Such paths are directly
beneficial to all concerned, for the
wheelman gets a good roadway and
the opposition are afforded food Tor
thought in the constant spectacle OF
the easy, rapid locomotion of vehicles
ever smooth surfaces.
This is an educative influence, but it
cannot always be counted on as slIih-
cieni. TO secure permanent results
it should be supplemented by practical
instruction, not alone to the adult
generation, but to the youth who VIII,
before many years, be called upon to
decide whether the mudways of TIE
past are to be retained, or whether
greater prosperity is to be courted by
the aid of hard and permanent high
ways.
Demonstration of road construc-
ton held annually in every county;
building of sample stretches on scien-
tific principles; efforts to arouse in
terest by promoting discussion in
farmers oranges and associations;
circulation of readable, convincing
matter, and the like, are among the
means that can be used to appeal to
the adult mind.
But younger minds can be appealed
to more effectively through the in
struction of the schools and colleges,
in every one of which information on
the social and economic value of good
roads ought to be given. This is a
phase of the subject that has not yet
received the attention it's Importance
merits. Too much cannot be expected
of the present generation, but the on
coming one can be trained to see the
great advantages of improving the
highways, so that they will naturally
take up the work when their time and
opportunity comes.
Doubtless there are obstacles to be
encountered in securing the introduce
ton of such instruction into the com
mon schools, but they can all be over
come, Not the least among them, per-
haps, is the fact that few teachers are
themselves at all well informed on the
subject, and might not welcome it at
4 first. Few works suitable for pur-
poses of instruction now exist, and a
demand for them would be created;
but in a short time, all this could be
remedied, and intelligent instruction
given to the young would eventually
bring forth fruit a thousandfold.-

How IL Was Done.
[sn eclal Correspondenee.1


When President Mckinley sent out
his first call for volunteers to help
suppress Spanish misrule in Cuba
and 10 conquer the naughty dons,
Michigan was asked to furnish
four regiments Of infantry, and
she responded to the call prompt
ly. The state militia already com
prised nearly the requisite number OF
men to ill the quota, and Gov Pingree
Immediately sent forth an order that
quickly concentrated at the state camp
grounds at Island Lake the brightest
and finest specimens Of manhood to be
found IN the Wolverine peninsulas.
Among the 1000 brave boys who had
so sacrifcingIy laid aside positions Of
honor and responsibility in order to
serve their country in the great hui
manitarian task before it, and be a
credit to old Michigan, none were
destined to play more important part
than seven printers, all members of
company +, Thirty-third Michigan
volunteers.
The story Of the trials, hardships
and exploits Of the "illustrious seven"
is best told by the business manager"
of their publication, who had been
foreman of large printing concern
in his home city:
"Well, you know we were among the
first ordered to Cuba, and can tell you
the expedition was no picnic. We land
ed on the shore near Sardenas, and
would rather face Spanish bullets than
to again make the attempt to land from
transport in rough sea; for it re-
quired nerve, can tell you, to make
the leap from the ladder alongside
the transport into the small boat in
waiting-now on top of huge billow,
and then 20 feet away in the trough
of the sea; but of course the navies said
it was easy and we had to say the

"As he pulled on the boot" said the
narrator, "he pulled the grooming,

sudden he dropped the foot, picked upa
musket with fixed bayonet and, lifting
it high up, he pinned the poor victim

brutal act. We all cried out against
it, but the Georgian did more. He
turned on his face, dragged himself
forward a feet feet, and picked up
navy revolver. Then, resting the
weapon across the dead body OF one
Of his own regiment, he sent a bullet
square between the shoulders of the
ranger and dropped him dead in his
tracks-dropped him dead with the
boot clutched in his hands. There was
shout of approval from everybody
even from the rangers comrades--and
there was no further attempt to modest

the man, and we found that the bayonet
had passed through the fleshy part OF
his thigh only, but he was so securely
pinned to the earth that it took us ten
minutes to eXtricate him. We passed
along lot of the muck from hand to
hand and applied it to his fresh wound,
and after time we checked the bleed
ing. He was picked up with the rest
of us just before dark, but he was far
gone, and I have no doubt that he was
dead within "a hours"
but he told you his name and regi-
ment?" quered one of the listeners.
"He did, as I well remember, but
never could recall either. He was a
member of my brigade, but of which
of the four regiments cannot say.
Some one in authority may have found
his name to bury with him."
"And what became of the confeder-

haired man who had been most at

rose up. "I'm the Georgian!"

man to man.
"And you wouldn't know the federal
who was bayoneted?" asked stranger
on the outside of the group-aman who
had heard all and said nothing.
eff he got well of his wounds he is
IS years older than when he lay on that
battlefield" answered the narrator.
The other stood up, unbuttoned his
vest and suspender, and pulling aside
his clothing he continued;
There is the scar of that bayonet
wound. 1 am the federal who lay ON

No one spoke for long minute. Then
man who had been colonel OF Mis-

and said:

the others, as hand sought hand for a
