Tho Spanish losses must have been
frightfui, as they were exposed to q ter
rife fire TOR quarter Of an hour. The
losses on the American side were light,
as our soldiers lay behind trees and
had every advantage.
Even after capturing Ell Caney and
San Juan and advancing upon Aqua
dores. the work OF the Americans was
not done. 1t was necessary to hold
these positions against any sortic. I'm
less reinforcements arrived at once the
men would be well-nigh exhausted by
their difficult work and unprepared for
any assault by the Spaniards. 1t was
this precarious condition that existed
on July 8, when the country was grave
,y alarmed by Skaters dispatches.
There was cause for alarm. not under
standing the desperate straits in which
Linares was. but there was NO justtfi-
cation for the criticism of Gen. Shafter
which was indulged in. His work was
well done, and he deserves nothing but
the highest praise. Subsequent de-
yelopments soon proved these facts.

is always melodious and pleasing. The
Kanaka has a quick ear for music and
learns new airs with facility. Yet, no
matter what selection is sung by the
natives, and no matter how closely the
notes are followed, the singing is al
ways peculiarly plaintive, due. no
doubt, to some subtle. indefinite quail
ity OF the singers voices. Their sing
ing is at its best out OF doors, and
particularly when they are upon the
water and the airs are their own
