HALE OF THE FRONT PAGE WITH HEADING.

Yates of company F had held a 'coun-
Gil of war; ana laid our plans to the eff
feet that we would endeavor to pene-
trate the first Cuban city captured by
our army, and issue an American news
paper, from some Spanish printing Of
flee, by hook or crook, and from thence
forth our hopes and desires were con-
,stantly with us for the accomplishing
of this object. For had we not managed
to keep together so far, from Michigan
to the land of fever and pestilence-
southern Cuba.
"On June 80 it was given out that a
general attack was to be made on San
tiago and it's defenses. The part as
signed to us was to uncover the enemy
at Aguadores, so that our naval fleet
could destroy the Spanish Notifications.
Our company was detailed to proceed
by train, as we had captured loco
motive and several box cars the day
before. We found the enemy too much
for us at this time, and had to retreat
with the loss of two of our brave fell
lows. the result of Spanish shell str!k-
ing the train. The next day, however,
we drove the Spaniards from their posi-
ton, while the main body of the army
stormed the trenches in the vicinity of
Santiago with the result so familiar to
every American. On July the great
naval battle was fought, and few days
later Santiago and the eastern prov
inces of Cuba surrendered to the Amer
lean general
with the fall of Santiago we were
getting anxious to put our newspaper
plans into execution, and at meet
ing of the council 1t was decided to
send courier to Gen. Shafter, who
was some miles away, to ask his per-
mission to enter Santiago to issue an
American newspaper. The general
was hardly prepared for this new out
burst of American enterprise and pa
triotism, and at first doubted our sin
cerity, but being assured that we
meant business we gained his con
sent for a three days furlough. We
Immediately packed up enough ra'
lions for the allotted time, and hur'

up our rubber blankets when the toot

hurried to the railroad track, where We
succeeded in boarding a commissary

AdnItcrotion of Rice.

So cheap and common an article OF
food as rice is adulterated. The pur'
pose is to give the grains an attractive
color, the articles used being oil and
parraffin, but the effect on the rice
is deleterious. Those oily substances
a New Orleans paper says, soak into
the grain and make it hard. The re-
sult is that more cooking is needed,
and even then the rice often remains
hard, and, to that extent, is made In
digestible. In addition the oil adds to
the weight of the grain, and thus again
is the buyer cheated.-Chcago Inter

RnasIn mas nnd Ronda.

Baron Duquesne, sent to Russia by
the Touring Club de France for the
object of inspecting the roads most
suitable for the projected Paris-St.
Petersburg motor car race, has issued
a long report stating that roads, as
understood in the rest of Europe, do
not exist in Russia save in the immedi-
ate vicinity of the largest towns where
they are few and far between, and very
bad at that. He concludes that the
intended race is almost an impossibili-
ty, as the rough pathways used as
roads would not allow one vehicle ever
reaching its destination. Russia, it
would appear from tlfe above, is not a
country that could be easily invaded
unless the railways were secured first.

 Were Pulled.

MT. and Mrs. Hugh Wallng, L. L. Lusk, W. c. Morley and Jack Cannodle were among the defendants in police court yes- terday morning. They were charged with gaming and were arrested by Officers Arm strong and Devine.
 The game in which they participated took place at Walling's home in the vicinity of Buzzard's Roost. It was only a quiet lit- tie game of cards, but two of the men thought that Walling and his partner were manipulating the paste-boards in a way that was not in strict accordance with the rules laid down by Hoyle, and told their tale of woe to the policemen, and as re- suit the quintet was pulled
 The evidence developed the fact that Mrs. Walling was not participant in the game and she was released. The four men were fined $10 each.

HEAVY DAMAGE SUIT FILED
  Against the SIoss Iron & Steel Company Yesterday. FORDEATH 0? w. HARTMAN Deceased Was Killed While Confined in the Mines as Convict, Sent Up From
 the Police Court.

J. J. Bonner, administrator of the estate of F. w. Hartman deceased, yesterday filed suit in the circuit court against the Sloss Iron and Steel company for $2O GOO damages.
 Hartmanwas killed while engaged in dig ging coal in a mine operated by the Sloss Iron and Steel company at Coalburg, while serving a sentence of hard labor imposed by the police court of this city for mis- demeanor of which he was convicted
 These convicts were leased to the Sloss Iron and Steel company by the city ad- miRistration and Hartman was killed by a falling rock in the mines.
 The complaint alleges that on and before the 30th of January, 1898, the deceased was by force and against his will compelled to dig coal in the. mine and while thus en- gagged received injuries which resulted in his death The allegation is also made that the accident which caused his death was the result of carelessness and negligence upon the part of the defendant.
 Hartman was convicted in the police court on Jan. 4, and was taken to Coal burg under the lease with the Soss com- pany.
 Richard L. Williams, the attorney who filed motion in the city court asking that summary judgment be issued against Nathan L. Miller for certain fee commits sion due a nonresident of the state for which he had demanded payment, was de- nied on the ground that there was no evil dence to show that the party had not re- ceived his pay from either the plaintiff or defendant in the case MT.
