Their Wounds.

1t was IL o'clock before the last of thoss
able to keep their feet had been safely dis
embarked. Most of these suffer from rifle
shot wounds in the arms or hands. About
thirty-five others, whose injuries are in the
/ lower parts of their bodies had to be car
ried off in stretchers. Fifteen, who are
suffering from a mild attack of measles,
were left on board the steamer and will
probably be taken back to Cuba when the
Iroquois returns.
The debarkation was not completed until
early yesterday morning. Most of these
men laugh at their wounds. They want to
go back, for they have tasted real fighting
and ale hungry for more.
II was learned as they fell in the firing
lines at Santiago the corporals hustled
them to the rear but in nearly every case
the moment make-shift baldages were
swatned about their wounds they pushad d
again to the 'front.' until it eventually be-
came necessary to strip them of their car
fridge belts. Said one of them in telling
this of the others
'D-n it: they had to stay back tnen.

One man was struck by Mauser Lulet
while in the act of firing his revolver.

KEY WEST, Fla, July THE s25
wounded heroes of Santiago, brought here
by the Iroquois, are doing well, and none
is in danger. They are distributed between
the Marine and Convent Hospitals and the
unused cigar factory, which had been
previously fitted for such purposes.
All officers and some of the men are quar-
tered at the Convent Hospital, where the
nuns are doing fine service as nurses. At
all places the utmost care and skillful med
ical and surgical attention are devoted to
the wounded men.
These wounded warriors, returning to
their native soil after their glorious
achievements in the field, were, strange to
say, received in rather cavalier fashion.
Their landing would have been COM
mOnpiace had it not been grotesque. The
Jroquois entered the harbor about . o'clock
and through somebody's negligence went
aground OH a Sana bar, where she remained
for three hours, brace of government
tugs struggling to free her, while from the
rails of the stranded ship peered bronZed
faces of wounded men, eager to step once
more on American soil. Eventually the
steamer slid off and was docked
No Enthusiasm.
News of her arrival had brought to the
dock motley crowd of curiosity seekers,
mostly Cubans. There was not sign of
enthusiasm, even among those very per-
sons for whom the disabled soldiers had
received their hurtS-not cheer, not
handicap. 1t was exactly as if one of the

down the companion ladders as best they
could to get ashore
All the aHlbulances in the town had been
brought into service, but despite their fire.
quent and hurried trips, fllled to the last
inch, the provision was entirely inadequate
In consequence many of the men had no
other resource than to walk four blocks to
the horse car line, on which they were
joited to the hospitals, at the other end Of
the town.
The sight of the stalwart fellows, blacked
by the tropical sun, bruised and scratched
by Cuban jungles, and wrapped in band
ages which covered, but did not conceal,
their wounds as they shambled and strag-
gled along the rugged roads, had in it much
OF pathos, perhaps tragedy.

FUTURE OF THE NEGRORACE.

DISCUSSING the death rate of whites
and blacks in this country, the New
York Medical Times says:
'In this connection the mortuary re-
ports Of some Of our cities are of marked
interest. In March, 1898, the death
rates for whites in Baltimore was ! TO
S62 for negroes to $50. In Nashville,
for the month of March the death rate
for the whites was to s55; for negroes,
! to 4SO. Statistics of other cities with a
large colored population show similar re-
sults. 1t is a question whether, notwith-
standing all the efforts which are being
made TO improve the condition OF the
colored race by education and facilities
for remunerative labor, the colored race,
as a race in the United States, is doomed,
by the working of natural law, to such
diminution of its number that, like the
North American Indians, in time only a
yestige will be left.
"In the present crisis, when the ques-
ton Of protection to the islands we are
setting free from despotism which has
shown no improvement since the Middle
Ages is troubling the minds of our states
men, may not the solution be found in
the adaptability of the negro for active
service in the tropical regions OF the
West Indies and the Philippines as a
soldier? There are now in this country
10000 colored people, and in our army
5000 negro troops, who have shown
their bravery in Indian wars and who
are immune to yellow fever. There are
no Drawer men than trained negroes,
and under white officers, whom they are
accustomed to respect, none who would
do better work in the tropical regions
which are coming under our control.
Why not increase the 5000 to $4,000,
and with them garrison our new posses

THE WAR WITH SPAIN

AS the sun casts shadows in shedding
light, even 80, this war must cause sor-
row in bringing hope and freedom. This
great, grand and glorious wall 1t is
holding out a morsel to the hungry in
Cuba; a helping hand to the oppressed
and overtaxed there, and as a gracious
gift, 1t has conferred freedom on every
soul in that struggling land. Over and
over again the loss OF the Maine has been
avenged. 1t has raised our moral stand
ard far above its former height, and has
pointed the finger o: pride at our army
and navy, our national integrity and the
bravery and heroism OF our American
soldiers. But, in the face OF all this,
could We look into the saddened homes
this war has made; could we but feel the
deep anguish OF the fond mother, whose
darling boy has lain down his life for the
freedom Of others, a willing victim OF
sacrifice on the altar of his country; or
hear the heart-broken sobs OF "the girl
who was left behind" and know as the
years come and go, how deep the void
in her heart may grow. we would fain
exclaim: U, cruel warl Thou hast
wrought but evil in this fair land of ours.
Too true. But in that fair land of Cuba
Unreasonable good has been wrought.
Then let us all join and say; God bless
the brave-hearted, patriotic boys who
have responded to their country's call.
TO put down Spanish tyranny and treach-
cry and make enlightenment for the ig-
norant Cubans possible. And mothers,
sisters. fathers. brothers. sweethearts,
relatives and friends, as you sorrow DER
your dead heroes, let the knowledge that
they shed their blood in the cause OF
humanity, bravely upholding "Old
Glory" be a consoling balm for your
grief-stricken hearts. NIKE.

HORSE TALK.
Market Steadily AdvancIng-0ood
Size Wanted.

For years the standard Of the market
for horses has been steadily advancing.
1t takes a better horse nowadays to be
called good one than ever before. He
must have more quality, more style and,
above all, more size than ever. The last
is especially important in the opinion of
the National Stockman A horse must
be Of good size for his class TO bring a
good price. A little draft horse is chunk
and maybe poor one at that. A small
driver is not wanted by men who can
afford to pay good prices for driving
horses, and is too small to work. II
man is breeding drivers to sell, he must
get the size. He cannot afford TO risk
getting extreme speed one time and los
ing the other things nine times. He
must breed for quality, style and size,
and all the speed he can add thereto will
profit him. But farmer cannot afford
to breed small horses on the chance OF
getting speed, for too often he doesn't
get 1t or doesn't know when he has it.
Get them good and big, and they will
SELL
