HE FOUGHT AT SANTIAGO.
William EhIert, Who Visited Charles
EhIert Last Week.

EutCTt Last w eek
William Ehlert private in troop
D, Sixth Cavalry, United States
Army, visited his brother Charles
Ehlert at this place last week. VIM.
Ehlert is daughty regular" who
passed through the trying experiences
of the siege and capture of Santiago.
He does not have anything to say
about the hardships of the camps
but says that the regulars are more
than pleased with their treatment
VIM. Ehlert has 80 days furlough
and is visiting relatives in Wisconsin
and this state. While at Jonesville,
Wis.,, the Gazette, of that place had
the following to say
Mr.. Ehlert's home is in Milwaukee
and in July 1897 he enlisted in the
cavalry branch of the regular army at
the recruiting station in that city,,
He was assigned to a post at Robin
son, Nebraska, where he remained
until the war broke out when he was
sent, with his regiment, to Chica-
manga park. Afterwards he was
sent to Tampa where he embarked
for Santiago with Gen. Wheeler's
division, under Maj. Gen. Shafter.
At Santiago Trooper Ehlert had his
share of the experience of lying for
days in trench, with Mauser bullets
tipping above his head. I'VE we're
mighty glad to get trenches to lie in
too, he said, with a smile, "those
Spanish rifemen could shoot wicked
~ straight" Trooper Ehlert's opinion
of the Spanish cavalry, however, is
not very complimentary to the Dons.
"Their horses are small and in poor
condition; they look like bronchos. ld
think one good American cavalry
troop could wipe their whole force off
the earth" he said.
Trooper Ehlert also spent part of
his time driving six-mule team on
supply wagon. Before the surrender
of the city he teamed from Siboney to
Gen. Skaters headquarters; after
the surrender from Santiago to the
camp. He says the mules often had
to go 48 hours without feed and as it
was impossible to have them shod and
the roads were SO rocky, they made
very poor time and work was terribly
hard.
Trooper Ehlert said that they could
hear the canonading very plainly
when Cervera made his rush out of
Santiago harbor and was destroyed
by Commodore Schley. He says the
men in the trenches thought they
knew what was happening, but it was
two days before their belief was con
frmed and they could cheer.
Troop D, of the Sixth Cavalry, en-
barked on the transport Gate City,
for Montauk Point, N j., leaving be-
hind sick with fever and wounded,
who were not able to make the trip.
"We were glad to get out Of, as we
