A Field for Agitation.

Highway agitation seems to be sadly
needed in Lawrence, Kan. The Jour
nal of that city, in a recent issue, says
" that there is not country troad
leading to this city but is in better con
dition than the best street on the south
side" The worst street of all is Mas
sachusetts, and on it the city has done
no work through the park in years,
save to drag the scraper throught it oc-
casionally. !. Through that park
the mud has been from one to three
feet deep, and loaded wagon could not
go through it. This, on a street within
block of the business portlon of the
town, and on street travelled necessa-
rily by large number of people, is a
shame and disgrace to any communi-
ty that claims to be civilized. We
pay ont thousands Of dollars year in
charities to people who are able to work
and who should be made to work, and
if they were put on the roads the sum
total given them each year would keep
some of the streets, at least, in good
condition. 1t is time something prac-
tical was done. Almost half century
has come and gone since Lawrence was
settle, and to-day the roads and streets
are in far worse condition than when
the first settler came"

Some men are lucky, and among the
most lucky is the spectacular Hobart
Chatfield Chatfeld-T Taylor of Chicago.
He inherited large fortune by the
simple process of adding few sausage
links to his name. Then he married a
wife and toured Spain. While there
he wrote a book on the Gland of the
Castanet," which gave a vivid and
truthful picture of life in Spain, but as
no one thought or cared much about
Spain at the time, the publication was
not striking success. The war COM
ing on changed all this. People want
ed to know all about Spain. No one
could go there, AID Mr.. Hobart Chat
field Chatfield- Taylor accent aigu on
every syllable the information
cornered. He arose one morning to
find himself famous, and the receipts
from the sale of his book will enable
him to have his name hauled in one
section wherever he goes. Commercial
Appeal.

HOW HAMILTON FISH, JR.,
.aved Childs Life on Horseback at Full
Speed.

'aved Child's Life on Horseback at Full
Speed.
There was grief in the little thatched
hut of lowly Mexican family named
Gonzales over the news of the death of
Hamilton Fish, ir.
The regiment was drilling recently
in brigade form, and was executing
charge up straight hill near a little
Mexican settlement at San Juan Mis-
sion, south of the city As the column
of horsemen dashed up the hill swar
thy little Mexican emerged from
clump of bushes and ran directly in
front of the rapidly advancing cavalry.
In another moment the child would
have been trampled to death, but, quick
as q fash. Hamilton Fish, jr., set the
spurs deep into the fanks of his horse
and darted ahead of the column. With
quick movement he reached down
and swung the child up before his sad
die and carried it to place of safety.
The mother OF tina child, who was
witness of the heroic incident, gave to
Mr.. Fish little metal image Of st.
Joseph, which had been blessed by the
priest and which the child carried sus-
pended about its neck. This image
was supposed to shield the wearer from
danger and to be protection from ac-
cidents or violence of any kind.
In telling o few friends at the San
Antonio Club about the incident few
DAYS later, Fish asked:
What if I should lose the thing?"
Postmaster J. M. George warned him
to guard it carefully, and told him that
the superstition is that the over is in
greater danger after losing it than ever
before.
A few days before leaving for Tampa,
Mr.. Fish was at the club again, and
was asked if he still had his ''hoodoo'
as he iokingly called the little image.
''No, I've lost it, said Fish, "but 1
guess it's just as we'll, +" he added with a
tinge of bitterness in his tene. "They
have always said that I was man Of
misguided energies and would never
amount to much. If bad luck is to
come to me, hope it will come before
the war is over. New York Journal.

The Law on Steam ThresIers.

The season of the year is upon us
when steam threshers most do congre-
gate, and infest the public highway. If
there is anything in the world that will
frighten horse it is the puff of an en-
gine and the hiss of escaping steam.
All operators and engineer of such ma
chimes should be very particular in the
handling of their engines, as the law is
very explicit on this point.
In Shannon's code, State of Tennes-
see, we find the following in sections
1876 inclusiAe.
Sec. 1913. 1t shall be the duty of any
person or persons using or operating a
traction engine on the public highway
for the purpose of drawing threshing
or other machines, to keep watchman
at least two hundred yards in advance
of said engine for the purpose of noti-
flying any person travelling on the pub
lie highway of the approach of said en-
gine.
Sec. 1914. It shall be the duty Of said
person or persons running said engine
to stop the same and stop oil unneces-
sary noise on the approach of any wag-
on, buggy, orhorseman, until the same
shall have passed.
Sec. 1915. Any person violating the
provisions of the two above sections,
shall be liable for all damage caused
by such violation.
Sec. 1916. Any violation of Sections
1918, 1914 shall be declared misde
meanor, and be punishable as other mis-
demeanor cases.

In contrast to this Spanish fashion
was the cool, deliberate Yankee work.
The American squadron was without
sentiment apparently. The ships went
at their Spanish opponents and literal
ly tore them to pieces. But the mo-
ment the Spanish flag came down it
must have been evident that the senti-
ment was among the Americans, not
among the Spaniards.
CERvERA ABOARD THE IOWA.
IT took Admiral Cervera aboard the
Iowa from the Gloucester, which had
rescued him from the dead, and re-
ceived him with q full Admiral's guard
The crew of the Iowa crowded aft and
over the turrets, half naked and black
with powder, as Cervera stepped over
the side bare-headed. Over his under
shirt he wore thin suit of flannel Dor
rowed from Lieut.. Commander Vain
wright, of the Glouster. The crew
cheered vociferously.
"Ceryera was every inch an Admiral
even if he had no hat. He submitted
to the fortunes of war with a grace that
proclaimed him thoroughbred.
"The flames leaping out from the
huge shot holes in the Vizcaya's sides
licked up the decks, sizzling the flesh
of the wounded who were lying there
shrieking for help. Between the fire.
quent explosions there came awful cries
and groans from the men pinned in be-
low.
"Hhis carnage was chiefly due to the
rapidity of the Americans fire. Corp.
Smith, of the Iowa, fired 1856 aimed
shots in fifty minutes from four-inch
gun. Two shells struck within ten feet
Of Smith, and started q small fire, but
the Corporal went on pumping shots
into the enemy, only stopping to say,
"They've got it in this gun, sir"
From two six-pounders four hun
dred and forty shots were fred in fifty
minutes, Up to the tops the marines
banged away with one Founders, to ex-
cited to step back to duck as the shells
whistled over them. One gunner Of a
secondary battery under 12-inch gun
was blinded by smoke and saltpetre
from the turret and his crew were
driven eff, but sticking a wet hand
kerchief over his face, with holes cut
for his eyes, he stuck to his gun.
FINALLY as the six-pounders were so
close to the eight-inch turret as to
make it impossible to stay there with
safety, the men we're ordered away be-
fore the big gun was fred, but they
refused to leave. When the eight-inch
gun was fired the eoncussion blew two
men of the smaller guns crew ten feet
from their guns and threw them to the
deck as deaf as posts.
''Back they went again. however,
and were again blown away, and finally
had to be dragged away from their
stations. Such bravery and such dog
ged determination under the heavy fire
were of frequent occurrence on all the
ships engaged"

HIS STORY OF THE FIGHT.

Capt. Evans account of the battle,
as told in the cabin of the Iowa to a
correspondent of the Associated Press,
is intensely interesting. He said:
cat the time general quarters was
sounded the engine bell rang full speed
ahead, and l put the helm to starboard
and the Iowa crossed the bows of the
Infanta Maria Teresa, the first ship out.
AS the Spanish Admiral swung to the
westward the 12-inch shells from the
forward turret of the Iowa seemed to
strike him fair in the bow, and the fight
was a spectacle.
Gas the sqL Ladron came out in col
umn. the ships beautifully spaced as ia
distance, and gradually increasing
their speed to their thirteen knots, il
was superb.
"The Iowa, from this moment, kept
up steady fire from her heavy guns,
heading all the time to keep the In.
fanta Maria Teresa on her starboard
bow, and hoping to ram one of the
leading ships.
In the meantime, the Oregon, In
diana, Brooklyn and Texas were doing
excellent work with their heavy guns
'In very short space Of time the
enemy's ships were all clear of the har
bor mouth. and it became evidently i'm
possible for the Iowa to ram either the
first or the second ship ON account ol
