Daily new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1897-1906, 1898-10-20

AN Indiana farmer drew 5000 from
the Fort Wayne Hamilton National
Bank. He stepped out and was ac-
costed by a nicely dressed young
man, who stopped him and said that
his father, the cashier of the bank,
had not counted him out enough
money. The farmer at once reached
down in his pocket and pulled out
the roll of bills. He handed them
to the nicely dressed young man,
who wished to count them. 1t is
not necessary to state that the
farmer went home without his
money
REV. FRANK j. BROOKE, of Harri-
sonburg, Va. accompanied by another
minister, was in Parkersburg yester-
day looking up the record of Rev. A.
G. Doyle, who was placed under ar
rest there several months ago and later
released Some questionable trans
actions in connection with an insur-
ance company he claimed to represent
got him in trouble there. Mr.. Doyle
was formerly pastor of the Central
Presbyterian church at Clarksburg
Later he went into the insurance basi-
ness. On several occasions he has
gained notoriety by his high living
and methods of life. Recently at
GAINESVILLE, Ohio, the papers of that
city published startling stories, charg-
ing him with gambling, wine drink
ing and obtaining insurance money
in unprofessional ways. He is a
handsome and accomplished man of
fine address.

fire that MAS being poured into their
faces. On they went like demons.
Officers were everywhere ahead of their
men. Gen. Hawkins, with his sword
waving, was in advance Of all.
There was no halt until the top Of
the hill was reached. when the Ameri-
cans dashed among the Spaniards,
drove them out and bayoneted and cut
them to pieces.
Capt. Cavanaugh planted the flag on
the hill top and the sight of it caused
unb)unded enthusiasm. Our loss was
fearful, but we had carried the position
which commanded the city. Trenches
were full of dead Spaniards. Each
trench had contained 80 men and 20
bodies were found in some OF them aud

The charge was greatest of the day
and the most important, for the hill
was the chief defense overlooking

to the open, smooth hillside, there was
no protection. Bullets were raining
down on them and shot and shell from
tie batteries were sweeping every.
thing.
There was moments hesitation and
then came the order, Forward, charge
Lleut.-Col. Roosevelt led, waving his
sword. Out into the open the men
went and up the hill.
Death to every man seemed certain.
The crackle of the Mauser rifles was
continuous. Out of the bush came the
riders.
Up, up, they went, with the colore d
troops alongside Of them, not a man
flInching and firing as they ran. Col.
Roosevelt was 100 feet in the lead.
Up, up, they went. in the face of
death, men dropped from the ranks at
every step. The rough riders acted
like veterans. 1t was an inspiring
sight and an awful one.
Astonished by the madness of the
rush the Spaniards exposed themselves
This was fatal mistake for them. The
Tenth cavalry picked them of like
ducks and rushed on, up and up.
The more Spaniards were killed, the
more seemed to appear. The ram of
shells and bullets doubled. Men drop
ped faster u faster, but others took
their laces. Roosevelt sat erect on
hi horse, holding his sword and shout
rig 10 ais men to follow him. Finally,
his horse was shot from under him, but
he landed on his feet and continued
calling for his men to advance. He
charged up the hill afoot. Ii seemed
an age to the men who were watching,
and TO the rough riders the hill must
have seemed miles high. But they
were undaunted. They went on, firing
as fast as their guns would work. The
shooting of the Tenth cavalry was
wonderful.
The ranks closed as fast as they were
thinned. At last the top of the hill was
reached. The Spaniards IN the trenches
could still have annihilated the Amer
leans, but the Yankees daring dazed
them. They wavered for an instant
and then turned and ran. AS they ran
our men cody picked them off. Then,
on they went, to drive the Spaniards
further. Phey found trenches full of
dead but none alive. In the rush more
than half OF the rough riders were
wounded.
