A DESIRABLE IMPROVEMENT.
Proposition to Reduce the Grade on
Pigeon Hill. ~

A few days ago, County Surveyor
Brooks and County Commissioners
Roberts, Hughes and Borchert went
out to Pigeon hill, three'miies out on
the road to Lake Crystal, and looked
over the ground with view to rec
ommending some improvement in
the way of making the hill less steep.
II was ascertained that the hill has
fourteen per cent grade in some
places, which is very steep. Mr.
Brooks finds that the grade cap be
made uniform at 90 per cent, by cut
ting the top down nine feet and tl-
ling in eight feet below, bringing the
road up even with the railroad cros-
sing 1t is proposed also to cut off the
top of the next hill very slightly and
to fill in the depression between the
two hills to such an extent that it
can be brought up to a level
II the improvement proposed is
made it will be very great one. The
good work of improving the main
county roads, which has been under
way for several years, should be car
ried forward this year.
There is talk, also, of doing some
work ON the hill at the TOWNSHIP of
South Bend. Some filling and cut
ting should be done here, as it is a
bad place, both steep and sandy. The
sandstone taken from the side hill
should be used in riprapping that por-
tion of the roadbed which is sandy.

JUSTICE BUCK.
His Name Mentioned for the
District Judgeship.
He States That He Would Accept the
Office if it Were to Come to Him
Without Opposition.

While the friends of Lorin Cray
and Judge Severance are active on
behalf of their favorites for the dis
trict judgeship, "there are others" "
The friends of Justice Daniel Buck,
since he has announced his deter
mination not to be candidate for
reelection to his present position on
the supreme bench, have been urging
him to become a candidate for dis
trict judge. His name has received
frequent favorable mention during
the past few days. In view of this
fact, a Free Press reporter asked
Justice Buck today as to whether
he would consent to the
use of his name for the office. Mr..
Buck.was modest about expressing
his views, but finally said that if the
office were to come to him without op-
position he would accept it In this con-
nection, he mentioned several things
that he would endeavor to carry out
if elected, and WHICH he thought
would prove very satisfactory to the
people of the two counties now includ-
ed in the Sixth judicial district.
While it is not necessary to refer in
detail to these matters, it can be said
that they relate to the conduct or
administration of the Office, and could
not fail to give satisfaction.
Since Justice Buck has announced
that he would not be a candidate for
reelection to the supreme court, the
friends of Judge Buckham have
brought his name forward as one who
would fill the Office very acceptibly.
Judge Buckham has many warm
friends among the attorneys of Man
kato.
County Commissioner Roberts an
nounces definitely that he will not
take the Office of county commissioner
again. The names of w. W. Paddock
and j. T. Williams have been men,
toned for the position, and either
one would make satisfactory official.

HOW CUBANS FIGHT.
The Fierce Courage of the American
Allies I'm Cuba.

newspaper writer from Camp McCalla,
| Cuba, writes of the insurgents as follows:
"These thin, black men, silent save in
battle, when bullets fly and blood boils,
are made of the stuff that men admire.
Above all else they love the cause for
which they fight. Cuba Hbre' is their
watchword living and dying, and the man
who from a distance pretends to scorn the
honesty and earnestness of their purpose,
their willingness to die, and to be tor
tured in that death for the sake of their
lone star flag, knows not whereof he
speaks.
"On that fearful hot Tuesday, when the
two companies of marines marched up into
the densely wooded hills back of Camp
McCalla to run to earth the Spanish fiends
who infested their rocky sides, thirty
of these Cubans went along as guides.
Over the sharp rocks, through the thorny
cacti, under the pelting sun they ran and
scram bled, eager, silent and watchful.
And when they came upon the enemy
massed below them in the beautiful little
valley between two rising crests, all the
pent-up fury of their half savage natures
broke its bounds.
mo breastworks for them; no trees, no
rocks to hide behind. The marines, I'M

the ground, seeking every shelter, but not
these men. Springing high into the air
with uplifted machetes, their black faces
working with the passions that tore their
souls, they shouted their defiance at their
e.
hand
''One squat fellow with streaming,
straight black hair was rushing on in adj
vance of his comrades when bullet from
one of them struck him in the elbow. His
arm fell to his side. The bone was shat
tered. Staggering back, the man turned
to the one who had shot him-his broth

with a smile and sat down on the hillside
while the other patriots plunged on.
"Another here was pierced through the
breast by mauser bullet. lie fell at the
feet of Capt. Elliott, Fighting Bill they
call him. His eyes were glazing, but he
clutched feebly at his choking throat and,
murmuring Cuba libre', ceased to breathe.
CATER the fight was over and the last
fleeing Spaniard had cleared the crest of
the hill, Lieut.. Lucas met amid the brush
a wounded Cuban being borne on a
blanket by his comrades. He had been
shot through the breast, and the lieuten-
ant stopped to see if he could aid him.
He barred the breast of the already dying
man and examined the wound There
was no blood; the hemorrhage was in
ternal, so the officer ordered the men to
bear him on. As they did so the Cuban
turned, waved his hand and called out in
triumphant voice, Cuba libre.' The
effort resulted in death.
"These are the men whom Spain has for
years been trying to crush. Small wonder
that she has failed"
