SICK OR WELL, A RUSH

The Packers At the Battle of Santiago de

Z. E. BUTLER, of pack-tra No 3,
writing from Santiago de Cuba. Oh July

more or less violent form, and when we
landed we had no time to see doctor,

cerely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the Ipdirect saviour of
our army, tor If the packers bad been un-
aDle to work there would have been no
way OF getting supplies to the front.
There were 10 roads that a wagnn tram

The soldier boys do not seem inclined
they endured unnecessarily while in the
service. That they did suffer they admit,
but this is fact sufficiently we'll attest
ed without their testimony. There is
practical agreement that the lack of dis
trlbution OF food is due In large measure
To bad appointments Ill the commissary
department. Men were taken from civil
life who were entirely without experience
and were given charge OF matters upon
which depended the comfort Of the men.
They did not know what to do. Then
there was dishonesty. The soldiers were
denied their rations, presumably, that
they may be disposed of for the benefit of
those in whose keeping they were.
The commlssGry department did not
procure the right kind of food. Canned
stuff could not withstand the rapid r d
frequent change of climate, 1t became
sour and fermented. 1t was not fit for
healthy stomachs and was an abo nina
ton to the sick. When a can of toma-
toes was opened the gas would send the
contents flying through the aperture.
The selection for camps were poorly
made in Porto Rico and after rain the
ground would be covered with green
scum. The regimental quartermasters
were largely responsible for lack OF food
as they did not make the proper req 1isi-
tlol. The rains helped to debllitate the
! boys.
| The government was lex ia forwarding
supplies and there was neglect IN dis
/ trIbuting what had been forwarded
! here will be some disclosures made
when the boys are muster d out.

HE sGorm of Friday night proved quite
destructive throughout this county. The
barn oil Thomas Zahorik OF Mishlcott was
struck by lightning on that night and
totally destroyed, together with 30 tons
of hay. He was incurred in the Kossuth
company. The barn of A. Rehbein was
struck during Inc same storm. All his
buildings we're destroyed with the ex-
ception of his dwelling house. The barn
OF MIR. Peter Steffin of Msnitowoc Rap
Ids was also struck by lightning, but not
badly damaged. A singular circumstance
IN this connection is that the horses In
the barn we're made deaf by the shock
and have not yet recovered their hearing.

The attorneys for the defense watched ev-
cry move with intent interest. Halle and
Casner grew pale and red by turns and the
spectators outside the bar pricked up their
ears and wave of anticipation ran through
the room. Bennington walked to the stand,
very pale and evidently was on an intense
nervous strain. Before the testimony pro-
ceeded very far it was evident that Halle
and Casner's saloon had been his undoing,
and that he had been the young dupe in the
older and more experienced hands of Jones
and Halle. The testimony disclosed part
nership existing in the saloon business be-
tween Halle and Casner and that both were
officers of the law.
Bennington testified that he had known
Toll Jones ever since he had lived in Oro
Grande, which was nine years, but his ac.
quaintance with the other two men dated
back but little more than year. He had
a conversation with Jones, he said about
robbing the train at the sandbed in the
creek. Jones said he had something to tell
him, but would not tell him till he returned
from trip to the mountains. Jones
changed his mind, however, and disclosed
his secret there. He told Bennington that
he intended to rob q, train and asked the lat
ter if he would go with him. Bennington
said he would talk it over He then went

THE ORPHEUM-The excellent bill Il
CARDINAL sAToLLI IN DIsFAvoR
He Is No Longer Talked Of as Pope
Leo's Successor

According to the report of an American
priest recently returned from Rome,
where his soJourn was one of association
with the most distinguished ecclesiastics
connected with the papal court, Cardinal
Satolli no longer enjoys the high conf
dence of the sovereign pontiff in which he
reposed during his term as delegate apostolic
to the United States; but, on the contrary, is
distinctly out OF favor While in this coun
try Satolli was supposed to represent the
more liberal policy of the Catholic church,
as cxemplified by the pope himself and ex-
ercised here by Gibbons, Ireland and Keane,
who were his recognized eonsulters and ad-
visers. His ideas seemed to be distinctively
American, especially with relation to the
school question, and his liberal pronounce
ments created differences among the highest
prelates in the land, which have yet hardly
been healed. On returning to Rome and be-
ing appointed to the College of Cardinals, he
was freely discussed as the probable success
sor to Leo XIII. Indeed, it was said that
the pope had expressed the desire that Sa-
tolli should succeed him.
''But it is all changed now," said the
priest, "for he will receive but one vote
when the time shall come for the cardinals
to choose Leo's successor"
No one in Rome can divulge the reasons
which have reduced Satolli from the su-
preme favor that he enjoyed only compar-
atively short time ago. At first, on his re-
turn, he was loud in his praise of the Amer
lean priesthood and of American institu-
tions, but, latterly, he is reported to have
said that no one in America was capable of
doing any service to the church excepting
the Germans, especially as professors in col
leges and universities.-New York Times.

A Pocket Electric LIGHT

A New York pocket electric light has just
been put on the market, that quite eclpses
anything of the kind that has yet appeared.
1t is cylinder, 8 inches long and something
over an inch in diameter, looking like col
lapsed telescope. 1t is designed for use
among explosives and chemicals, where the
careless handling of matches or oil lamps
frequently causes explosions. The lamp
contains no wires, and the fact that it is ar
ranged in such a way that there are no
chemicals to spill makes it absolutely safe
when used even in the presence of the most
explosive material. The lamp contains
three batteries, with capacity of over three
volts, and at the end is placed magnifying
lens for the purpose of distributing the light.
Without renewal, the batteries have a life
of, approximately, from 5000 to 5000 lights,
and, when exhausted, separate batteries
can be purchased without the necessity of
getting the entire lamp.-New York Jour-
