EVERY MOVE FORWARD.

Every move was forward. The

The Spaniards fed.
The battle was won. The Spaniards
on the left retreated in the widest
disorder, streaming out of the town
by every street that afforded an out
let. One hundred and twenty-five
were cut off and captured.

ches.
FEARFUL CARNAGE.

Had the enemy remained stanch,
the slaughter at close range would
have been appalling, but the daring
Americans dazed them. Their fire
drivelled to nothing. They wavered
and they ran. Our fellows dropped to
one knee and picked them off like
cartridges in the brush.
The position was won. Some of the
Spanish guns had been abandoned,
but a good many they had been able
to carry off.
In the wild rush more than half Of
the Rough Riders were wounded.
During all this riot of death and
victory on San Juan hill, Lawton was
advancing rapidly on Caney. The en-
envy had prepared for this attack, bur
their nerve failed them and they had
ran away as soon as the assault was
begun.

CLOSED UP THE GAPS.

Before they were half across the
field, the Seventy-hrst had lost over
seventy men. and the fire was getting
more dreadful every moment. The
enemy was well protected behind the
breastworks and realized the Amcri-
can lines must reach them. They be-
gan to retreat. Our men broke into a
run, heading full into the enemy's
fierce fire. The Sixth came out after
the Seventy-first and braved the same
awful fire of bullets. Right into the
teeth of it they ran across the open
cheering and shouting. They dashed
up the hill. The enemy's fire never
slackened. Half way up they got the
first clear sight of the Spaniards.
Then it was our turn. Our fire was
deadly. Spaniards in breastworks
leaped into the air and fell dead out
side.
Rafferty's company of the Seventy
first was i'm the lead They dashed
into the enemy's trenches, bayonet-
ing the Spaniards there until they
fled; and as they ran, Rafferty's
cheering crowd chopped them down.
The blockhouse, when taken, was
found crowded with dead Spanish.
Outside the hill was covered with the
dead Spanish. The enemy's rife pits
were full of dead and wounded. Only
three Spanish prisoners were taken,

GALLANT sEvENTY-FIRsT.

\ Spanish blockhouse, a mile up the
hill, had been giving us great trouble.
Away we went after it, the Sixteenth
ahead, the Eighth on the left, the
Seventy-frst on the right. Ratferty's
company held the skirmsh line on
the wooded side of the hill.
Between them and the blockhouse
was half mile of level land without
cover The skirmishers were half
way across it and were counting on
an easy capture when the whole hill
side blazed. Shot and shell rained in
among them. The Spaniards had all
held their fire until our men went so
far that there was no chance of their
getting back to cover. The slaughter
was awful.
The Seventy-frst saw what had
happened and dashed madly out into
the open. facing the whitening fire.
Shrapnel burst in their ranks. tear

ricans have advanced to within half
mile of Santiago.
Every hilltop around Santiago is
crowned with blockhouses and with
intrenchments. There are probably
twenty of these.
The First and Tenth cavalry came
up with the Rough Riders at o'clock
in the afternoon. Undaunted by the
terrific fight which they had passed
through, they were ready to advance
on the enemy again.
In blockhouses a hundred yards off
the fleeing enemy took refuge Our
line continued to advance. terrorizing
the enemy with "a new peril.
There was now but one position to
carry This was San Juan itself. The
batteries were heavy. however. There
were earthworks to the right. to the
left-everywhere. Then there were
storehouses, each fort and each fill
ed with Spaniards.
HAWKINS CHARGE.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon Gener-
al Hawkins ordered an assault i'm full
force. At the head of the Third and
Sixth cavalry and the Thirteenth and
Sixteenth infantry, he started up the
hill. The general went right out in
front, leading the desperate charge.
Wood and Roosevelt with their Rough
Riders, and the Seventh, Ninth and
Tenth Infantry, made up the second
assaulting line.
The hill was far sleeper than any
of those taken before, and was de
Tended by greater number of Span
ish. The enemy's best guns were at
that point and half their best gun
ners.
The Spaniards swept the slope with
a whitening fire. 1t did not seem that
human courage and human enduring
| could take that step. But our men
never tiinched nor faltered. Up the
! hill they cheered as they charged. The
cruel shell tore gaps in their ranks,
officers fell, men were shot down In
the midst of their cheering. but in
and through it all could be felt the
influence of Hawkins calling for re-
! newed endeavor. He was out in the
very front with the officers of Compa-
NY e of the Sixteenth.
VICTORY OURS.
The fire now came from the sides as
| well as from the front, and the ranks
were being cut to pieces. Still, there
was no more wavering. Men fell by
tens, but others yelled and dashed
on. Over the lip of the hill they haC
rushed, and at last had their enemy
in full view. Captain Cavanaugh sci
Old Glory on the heights and the en-
envy fled as our men shouted in theii
enthusiasm.
The Spaniards were terribly cut t.
pieces as they ran.
These heights were won, but the
victory had cost us dear. From thi!
position of vantage if our forces hat
had the proper artillery they coult
have driven the Spanish out of Santa
go and won the fight then and there
but they had no adequate guns.
In each trench had been stationed
thirty men. In some as many a!
twenty lay dead or MORALLY wounded
and twenty-five dying or disabled col
diers were found in many of thes,
pits of death. But as against this u
some of our companies there were no
over twenty or twenty-five men whc
had not received wounds.
That tells the story of one Of tn,
tiercest fights of all time.

RAFFERTY's MEN.

There was hardly a man in Raj
ferty's company that was not wound
ed in some way, but they refused to
leave and held the rifle pits for an
hour. Then Spanish sharpshooters
and artillery made the position too
hot to hold. Rafferty, saw he could
gain nothing by holding it and he
withdrew over the crest and halfway
down the hill. There he was out of
range. Re-enforced by his own reg
iment, he made move toward the
left flank Our boys crawled on their
breasts until they got into position
where they could concentrate their
fire on the Spanish on another hill,
They drove the enemy into trenches,

RETREATING FOE.

The retreating foe reformed in the
trenches, and so the battle went on
for hours. The Spaniards made des-
perate efforts to recapture the posi-
ton. but were driven off again and
again with tremendous losses. The
Americans followed them every time
they were driven back. The Spanish,
in their retreat, left their dead and
wounded behind. Though they kept
up a continuous fire on our wounded
as they were being taken from the
field. our men made no reprisals on
the helpless Spanish wounded that lay
about.

and went up close to it. Strange to say, it made no effort to get out of my way, but allowed me to pick it up. I saw it was wild duck as soon as I eX- amined it's wings. Then I saw sev- eral others and they all behaved the same way. A wild goose waddled out in front of me and flock of wild pig cons flew around and roasted on the branches of trees, where l could touch them.
 T felt bewildered and thought I must have gotten into an enchanted forest. It was a most novel sensation and l spent some time amusing myself with the different birds.\
 However, that was not finding my cattle, so I continued my way up the stream for few hundred feet. Then I met sight that simply astounded me. I stopped and rubbed my eyes, to make sure l was not asleep. Then I got frightened and was half tempted to run back. But the memory of the strange actions of the wild ducks and geese only a few minutes previously nerved me somewhat. If it had not been that I had seen them first I most surely would have run away and ever afterward would have made myself be- lieve that I had been the victim of an hallucination.
 "As it was, made my way into the opening in the forest and looked about me in wonderment. A big jackrabbit loped up to me and rubbed his nose against my knees.
 '"The opening in the forest was full of wild animals. and three of my Jer- seys were peacefully chewing their

 At last came to a thicket that was In a gulch. The fire was still burning fiercely around the outside, but I could see the green leaves through the smoke and knew there was room for whole herd of cattle on the inside. After con- siderable search I found a place to get through. the smoke and reach spot comparatively cool and shady. A little smoke drifted in, but not enough to make it inconvenient or unpleasant.
 T at once felt sure that I would find my cattle here. but was not at all prepared to discover the sight that met me.
 Tt was while I was dabbling in the stream that I heard the 'quack' of a duck. Of course I had no gun, and I began blaming myself for not bringing one. Then I got a glimpse of the duck floating on the water and not at all frightened at my appearance.

ferent acts. Two of the series show his Holiness in his sedan chair as his bearers were carrying him through the logla or corridor leading from the Vati- can to the Sistine Chapel, whither he went the morning of April 20, this year, to celebrate pontiflcal mass and to give an audience to a band of pilgrims. The third series, made on the same day shows the Pontiff driving in his landau Tn the gardens of the Vatican, and be- slowing his apostolic blessing. In the fourth series, taken some weeks later, his Holiness is walking in the garden opposite the door of the villa, and the last series shows the Holy Father allghting from his carriage and sitting on the old stone bench in the garden, and again bestowing a blessing. All display the brilliant entourage of Papar state, the Swiss, Noble and Palatine guards. the gendarmes anu firemen with wonderful viyidness.
 An American, William Kennedy Laurie Dickson, took these pictures. He was four months in Rome before he had in general way where the Vatican was. He carried on his negotiations through the chief officer of the Papal court, Count Sodarini, but his mission would have failed had it not been for the friendly aid of Count Pecci, the Pope's nephew, and an officer of the Pope's household, who is now on his way to the United States.
 By dint of careful explanation of his purpose and the exercise of his ability in diplomacy, together with letters of recommendation from men of high standing in the church, MT. Dickson established claim to recognition. His success is without precedent in the his tory of the Vatican. Nothing like it had ever been done before. nor had any such idea been entertained even, for the policy of the Vatican seems to have been to hold aloof from actual contact with the world outside. Despite his age and the diminished strength natural to one of his advanced years the Pope has
