 Under a Destructive Fire.
 "Under General Hawkins, who had crossed the stream and formed for the support of the division, the Second and Tenth infantry, Colonel E. P. Pearson commanding, moved forward in good order, passed over green knoll and drove the enemy back toward his trenches After completing their form ation under destructive fire, and ad- vancing a short distance, both divisions found in their front a wide bottom, in which had been placed a barbed wire entanglement, and beyond which there was high hill, along the crest of which the enemy was strongly posted. Moth | ing daunted, these gallant men pushed on to drive the enemy from his chosen position, both divisions losing heavily. 1 In this assault Colonel Hamilton and Leutenants Smith and Sharp were kill l ed and Colonel Carroll and Lieutenants ] Thayer and Myer, all in the cavalry, were wounded. Great credit is due to Brigadier General H. S. Hawkins, who, placing himself between his regiments, urged them on by voice and bugle calls l to the attack so brilliantly executed. | Bravery.
 "In this fierce encounter words fail l to do justice to the regimental com- manders and their heroic men, for while 1 the generals indicated the formations and the points of attack, it was, after all, the intrepid bravery of the subor- | dinate officers and men that planted our coIors on the crest of San Juan hill , and drove the enemy from his trenches and blockhouse, thus gaining a posi- tion which sealed the fate of Santiago.

 Prof. Pietra Santa of Paris, writes: " As large number of patients lack the necessary power to digest solid food, and would through the use of stimu- lants be merely excited and weakened, therefore l regard it of immense value to the practitioner to bring to his aid a nutritious tonic and remedy like Johann Hoff's Malt Extract, which will act not only as tonic, but as a nutrient as well, and which is less exciting than wine as a stirnulant."
