other horse. The fire was one that re-
quired the services of the Dartmouth
street company and "Old Jim" went to
as leader on the three-horse team of
the engine. When the scene Of the fire
was reached and the men got to work
the horses were detached from the en-
gine and "Old jim was tied to a lamp

with him by the harness. When the

seen them go, and Immediately every
body began a search for the missing
team. And where does the reader sup
pose those horses were found? "Old
jim" remembering his former home in
Fort Hill Square, and perhaps wishing
to introduce his companions to his old
mates. had in some way unfastened his
tie rein, and had towed his two mates
to the house in Fort Hill Square, where

to a fire with the bits hanging from his

where he was going, and only needed
the slightest pressure to make him turn

he seem to know just where he was

lieved he could count the alarms. In
fact, boy did call at the Fort Hill
Square house one day and asked to see
the horse that could count the box when
an alarm was sounded.

"OLD JIM"
Stories Told About a Famous Fire
Horse of Boston.

Stories of the intelligence displayed by
horses in Fire Departments have been
told over and over again, but there is
horse in the Boston Fire Department
that seems to be worthy Of a little at
tention at this time, as he has about
completed the days when he can be used
with safety, and probably will soon go
where he will have nothing to do but
kick up his heels and enjoy himself
This horse is known to the members
OF the department, and, indeed, to
many of the citizens of Boston, as "Old
Jim" and is now at the Dartmouth
street engine house, where he is an
emergency" horse. This means that
he is used when one of the regular ami
mails Is sick or away being shod or
when the condition of the streets de-
mands an extra horse.
The men tell several amusing stories
about him and the way he acts when
an alarm is sounded in the engine
house. As soon as the "tapper" sounds
and the stall doors fly open "Old jim"
makes rush for the floor AS soon as
he leaves his stall and gets out on the
main floor he hesitates a moment, and
then rushes to the vacant place. as
likely to have to fill one position as an
other. Another little trick he has is
that of helping himself at the grain
chest when he thinks no one is around
to see him. He will turn nearly around
in his stall. and With his lips will shake
the hook of the rope back of him from
the ring in which it is fastened Then
he will back out of the stall, and. 60
in TO IN, o1A
back the wooden button with his lips,
pull the door open, and then, raising
the lid of the grain chest, will help him
self. If he hears the step of one of the
men he will rush back to his stall and
crouch up in one corner as if he knew
well enough he had been doing some
thing wrong.
When the blacksmith calls at the
house to take him away to be shod all
that is necessary is to open the door of
his STALL give him push and tell him
to go, and out he trots to the man
waiting for him in the street, and as he
trots along he strikes a pace calculated
to make some of the younger horses
jealous. He is said to be one of the
best workers that the department ever
had. and. as the men say, has killed
several of his mates by making them
work harder than they were capable of,
in keeping up with him.
One of the most surprising stories told
about him relates to his actions at a
fire in the leather district several years
ago. The story is vouched for by Cap
tain Muliigan of engine No. - and sew
eral of his men, and, while it may seem
hard to believe. those who know the
horse say that it is thoroughly charac-
teristic of him. Previous to this fire
''Old Jim" had been quartered at the
Fort Hill Square engine-house, but had
been transferred to the Dartmouth

to live on, he WILL in a single summer,
become too lazy to brush the flies off
himself. Where it is hard to make a
living people are thrifty, and where it
is easy people drag themselves around
leaving toe marks like a draglegged
horse wherever they go, but drop one
of those fellows down in the midst
Of the Klondike, where it is hustle or
freeze and see him work! The simple
fact is there is not one person in lO,-
600 who is any more of a man than
nature compels him to be, but the
thousandth man has the fire of achieve
ment in his soul, and he will be a
hustler all the same in Cuba or klon-
dixie.

ANOTHER ATTACK.

Batteries at Santiago Again SheIled
by American Slips.
Copyright, 1898, by the Associated Press from
a Spanish Correspondent
HAVANA, June 14.-This morning
(Tuesday) two American cruisers and
one dispatch boat opened fire against
the batteries at the entrance to the
harbor at Santiago de Cuba, discharg
ing between fifty and sixty shots of
different caHber.
The batteries at Castillo del Moro
and Castillo de la Socapa answered the
fire, and the American gwarships re-
tired. AT the Socapa battery three men
were slightly wounded.
Last evening. (Monday) about il
o'clock the batteries at the entrance TO
Santiago harbor fired upon an Amer
lean vessel, which had approached too
near, the harbor mouth.l 4. Five shots
were fired from the batteries, which
were answered by two shots from the
American warships.
Yesterday noon what appeared to be
merchantmen was sighted off Glen
fuegos about ten miles from shore. The
Spanish gunboat Diego Valasquez went
to ascertain her character. When the
stranger was within distance of five
miles it was seen that she was a
cruiser. She hoisted the American flag
and opened fire on the Diego Vales-
quez, to which. the latter replied. At
the same moment the Lince batteries
opened fire, compelling the American
cruiser to retreat, apparently damag-
ed. The Diego Valesquez was slightly

ulists might put Owen, Of Hennepin,
forward. OF course the fight on them
would be in the Populist convention.
None of the other candidates were
about, but the feature of the gathering
in the lobby was the frequency with
which the name Of Pierce Butler, of st.
Paul. for the nomination for attorney
was mentioned. 1t is quite certain that
If Mr.. Butler wants the nomination
and will say so, he may have it. Mr..
Butler has not said so and his ST. Paul
friends had not been apprised that he
had even thought of it.
Julius Heinrichs, of Hennepin, will be
the nominee for secretary of state; this
beyond question In case fusion obtains
Alexander McKinnon, Of Polk, who
was the candidate two years ago, will
again be the candidate for treasurer
and will be on hand In the morning
1t was stated that Mr.. McKinnon had
said he would accept, though no one
could speak with authority for him.
John A. Keyes, of st. Louis, will be
the nominee for clerk Of the supreme
court unless the people Of the First dis
trict interfere-and they may on be-
half Of Albert Schaller. If they do,
then there will be one less Populist on
the ticket, and the Peoples party will
undoubtedly agree to the change.
Judges Canty and Buck will be re-
nominated, if Judge Buck indicates
this morning that he wants the NOM
ination. The disposition of the Pop
ulists to get the long end Of the ticket
was evinced in the fight that was be-
ing made, and will be made on Judge
Mitchell. He is the only one Of the

Before Americans Arrive.

Believed That Insurgents VIII Win
BEFORE Americans Arrive.
LONDON June 15.-The Shanghai corre-
spondent of the Daily Telegraph, forwarding
advices he has received from Manila up to
June 8, says:
On June 5 the insurgents forced the passage
Of the Sempole river and captured Las Pinas
and Paranaki. Since then, up to the time my
advices left Manila, the fighting had been
continuous. and the Spaniards were being
gradually driven in.
The fall of the city seems imminent before
the arrival of American forces. Manila Is
absolutely incapable Of resisting lombard
ment. Admiral Dewey is surprised at the
rebel progress, but the Spaniards suspect that
the insurgents are fighting under American
guidance. The defenders Of the city have suf-
fered severely from the incessant attacks
and from want of food and rest, and the hos
pitals and churches are crowded with
the wounded.
