"A Stampede in Camp at Tampa.

WASHINGTON, June 16.-A special
to the Post from Tampa says: At IL
o'clock tonight 5000 horses aud mules
broke from their corrals and stampeded
through the camps of Gen. Carpenter 8
brigade. 1t was 30 dark and the
excitement was so great in the District
of Columbia camp that it was impos-
sible to learn if any men were hurt.
The panic among the men was terrible.
Officers tried to get their companies
into line, but the army of wild horses
made that impossible. Many men
began shooting at the excited animals,
but this only excited them more. 1t
seems impossible to stop the stampede
tonight. The horses seemed to be
attracted by the tents, and they rush
ed through the brigade of three regi-
ments and then back again, taking q
different course each time. They
have already destroyed many tents,
kitchen and camping paraphernalia.
1t is not known what started the
animals on their wild rush. Taps had
just sounded in al the camps, end the
bands had played their good-nights.
The men we're hardly asleep, when a
loud cracking, like the FIRE Of Gatling
gun, startled them. 1t was the break
ing down Of the corral fence, a high
wooden affair. In the next moment
the excited and panting.horses rushed
into the New York camp, which was
nearest the break in the fence. The
rush sounded like thunder storm.
The New York camD q sentinels bepan
to yell like mad men: Call out the
guards y "Cail out the guards!'
The guard hurried out. but it was
useless, as the animals were then
rushing over everything in their path
In half an hour the camps had been
stampcded several times, and there
seemed to be no hope of driving the
beasts away from the beach. Forty
men were mounted by IL O clock, and
they were able to check the rush some
little, or, at least, to steer the horses
from the camp.

Ready to Land.

WASHINGTON, June 2O.-It is stated
officially that there is now no doubt
hat General Skaters military expo
dition has arrived safely off Santiago
by this time.
IL is not admitted that advices to
that effect have been received, but it
is presumed that the war officials
speak from knowledge.
According to the plans arrapged for
the debarkation, the feet of transports
is to lie in safe place until Sampson
has cleared the way for landing.
The selection of the landing place
has been left entirely to the judgment
of Admiral Sampson and General
Shafter. the military commander, and
tho first business in order, upon the
arrival Of the transport feet off Santi-
ago would be, it is said, war council
between Admiral Sampson and some
Of his naval captains on tho one hand
and Major General Shafter and his
staff on the other, the, purpose being
to settle all the details of the debark-
alton. Meanwhile the feet Of trans
ports would lay ss sea at least ten
miles beyond the blockading squadron
in order to be entirely safe from attack
by Spanish torpedo boats.
A great deal depends on the point
selected for the landing. It was
thought that Aguadores, to the east Of
Moro, about six or eight miles, would
be likely landing in view of the fact
that it has wharf, the property of all
iron orc company, which would be
extremely useful for landing the heavy
supplies and ordnance of the siege
trains. 1t is reported now, however,
that this particular wharf has becr,
commented by Spanish batteries,
which have been so placed as to Civ.
an enfiIading fire upon it. If this be
=" then the batteries must first b,
silenced.

little food in the region where Gomez
was making his headquarters, 30 he
did not mass any large number Of men
there, but spread them over large
extent of territory aud directed their
movements from his headquarters.
He has all the necessary arrange
menta made fc- she concentration Of
the troops when the proper time comes,
but keeps them scattered and employ
time 80 that they may find food.
The captain. claims that Gomez can
concentrate 10000 armed men in O
short time at any pint whero it is de.
sirable. There are several thousand
more men who arc attached to Gomez's
army, and are only waiting for arms
to be available for defensive or often
size operations.
In skirmish with guerillas about
threetweeks ago Gomez was wounded
ins the left arm by a Mauser bullet.
The wound healed quickly, however, in
spite of the generals advanced age,
and when the, captain left headquar-

Captured at Jefferson.

Due to the vigilance of Sheriff

plicated in the fatal assault on Police
man William Prinslow at Fond du Lac
Friday evening are now behind the
bars in that city awaiting trial at the
December term Of court. Their names
are given as James Browning, Thomas
Dixon and Thomas j. Kingston, and
they were arrested Saturday morning
at jefferson by our watchful sheriff,
who had been notified of the crime
and was on the lookout for suspicious
looking characters. The prisoners
came to Jefferson on a freight train
from the north. They were taken to
Fond du Lac Saturday evening and
two of them have admitted being in
Fond du Lac at the time Prinslow was
shot, but deny having had hand in
the fray. The authorities there, how
ever, believe that one of them, at least.
was implicated, and if he is proven
guilty, Sheriff Roach will come in for
a portion of the $500 reward offered
for the parties.

A BIT OF ROMANCE.
Criminal Charge Against Young Man
Ends in His Marriage to the Girl
of His ChOIce.

A rather touching story of true de-
votion had a happy denouement in
Justice Stacy's court last Saturday
morning, when the squire tied the
nuptial knot that made Otto Borken-
hagen and Mathilda -Gutzdorf one.
Both the principals are residents of
the Seventh ward. Borkenhagen is
proprietor of glue factory and about
80 years of age, while his spouse is a
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. G.. Gutz-
dorf, and said to be only Is. For
some time the twain kept company
with one another and are reported to
have been true. lovers. The affair
ran along smoothly and Borkenhagen
announced that he intended ultimately
to make the girl his lawful wife, not
withstanding the great disparity in
their ages. Then, it is said, the girls
parents interfered and endeavored to
break up the match This was not
so easily accomplished, however, and
only tended to strengthen the love
ties of the two. Matters came to q
climax finally. Something desperate
had to be done. Then it was that
Mathilda turned up missing and
Borkenhaoen was arrested at the in
stance of the parents on the serious
charge of enticing d minor child from
her home. He was held for examina-
ton, and in default of bail confined in
jail at Jefferson. The hearing was
set for Saturday last, and the girl,
after being located at the home of
friends in Milwaukee, was summoned
to appear as witness. At this stage
of the game she showed her fidelity.
She came home several days befo11
the hearing, and, it is alleged, made
trips to Jefferson to see her impris-
oned lover, travelling the distance on
foot. 1t is very probable that these
conferences were not without avail,
and that a course of action was out
lined. When Borkenhagen appeared
in court he had the able counsel Of
Hon. r. B. Kirkland, Of Jefferson.
Mr.. kirkland at once advised that the
best way out of the difficulty was for
the couple to get married and it
seems SO convinced the obiecting pa
rents, who, after much urging, were
won over and gave their consent in
writing for the marital union of the
persistent lovers. They were forth
with welded with neatness and dis
patch, according to Justice Stacy's
best methods; and, after the dismissal
of the criminal charge against the
new groom on motion of District At
torney Wigdale, were sent on their
way rejoicing. Thus ended a bit Of
romance that meant so much to 'stwo
souls with but single thought, two
hearts that beat as one.''
