A tribute to the extraordinary vitality
of the savage is paid by the British
War Office in ordering weapons and pro-
jectiles that will not merely wound. but
kill. In defending this policy it is af-
firmed that a wound that would render
a white man unfit to fight any further,
does not check the enthusiasm of the saw
age. 1t is said that black men have been
known to go on fighting after being
pierced with half dozen Lee-Metford
bullets, any one of which would have
sent white man to the rear.

Battle-Scarred Topedo Boat

Scared and denied by the
enemy, the little torpedo boat
Winslow, On which Worth Bag
ley, the first American. to fall
in the war with Spain, met death
at Cardenas, arrived at the Nor
folk navy yard Thursday morn
ing.
The Winslow shows every
where, says the Richmond Dis
patch, the marks of the terrible
FIRE to which she was subjected
at Cardenas. The forward con-
ming tower was pierced in many
places by explosive shells, while
the bullets from the Spanish
machine guns have dented the
tower in every direction.
A patch in her side tells
where a shell entered, and, ex-
ploding inside. wrecked the
boilers, but the greatest point
of interest is aft, where is loca-
ted the rapid,hre gun aboat
which Ensign Bagley and his
men were grouped when killed.
A deep dent in the deck marks
the spot where the shot struck
and exploded, causing the death

low the little revenue cutter
Hudson, the rescuer of the tor
pedo boat, lies at the wharf, and

good look at the men who risked
their lives in the daring rescue.
The Hudson is being disarmed.
The Winslow did not remain
at the navy yard long, having
only come up for coal and water.

MAY RETURN TO
RICHMOND.

Richmond, Va, August o.
The Third Virginia Regiment,
now at Camp Alger, will be
mustered out of service at once,
according TO a special received
here this evening from Wash
ington. The work may begin
tomorrow, though it is proba>
BILE that the command will be
brought here before being mus
tered out. If Colonel William
Male, the commandant, returns
to the Office OF Adjutant Gene~
raj, as it is believed he will, the
Third will be in a somewhat
anomalous situation. When
the Third volunteered for SER
vice Colonel G1eenville Gaines
was in command, and wanted
to lead his men to the 'front.'
The. Governor, however, appoin>
ted Adjutant General Nalle, who
had formerly been at the head
of the command, and Colonel
Gaines was left out in the cold.
So far as known he never gage
up his commission, but it is
hardly probable that he will
care to return to the command.
No credence is placed in the
report that either the Second or
Fourth Regiment may be mus
tered out. They are both al
most certain to 60 to Cuba, as
General Lee especially desires
them.

iards it is not probable that the

rious fornalities will have to be
arranged which will probably
occupy month or more. but as
it will not be altogether safe to
send troops to Havana and other
coastwise cities before the
month of October, there will be
no objection to such leisurely
proceeding. The work of re-
turning the Spanish army to
the mother country will also
consume considerable time, as
the troops and and families OF
the officers will number about
one hundred ard twenty-five
thousand, and as Spain has but
a, moderate sized feet available
for the purpose, many weeks
will necessarily be consumed in
transporting them home. I'm

ton will be completed before

of Neglected Soldiers and
Talks of Revolution.
The following letter has been
sent to President Mckinley by
Mrs. Flora Adams Darling,
Founder General Of the Column
bian Daughters Auxiliary
League:
ITO the President of the United
States:
"The women of our country
have demonstrated their pat
rtotism, and now the time has
come when they will demons
strate their power, for the cry
of David and of Rachel is heard
from lake and gulf and over
both oceans, and revolt aud re-
volution will follow with force
only known through wonan's
influence; and when women are
aroused governments are in
danger. I am receiving hundreds
of letters pleading that the
society act for the martyrs of
oS. The cry Come home is
everywhere heard, and to each
l reply, ITO desert under the
conditions that confront Our
armies is not crime, and they
will be defended by the women
of our home and country
"As Founder General of the
Societies of Daughters l was
i1nplored to act for peace before
the accursed hour Of war was
upon us. l wrote to you begging
your power to secure arbitration,
but war was forced by the re-
port of General Lee and the
Senatorial Commissioners,
Thurston, Proctor and Calling
er, while the words of truth and
warning uttered by Mr.. Phelps
were regarded as treason by the
pulpit and press of our country,
through prejudice, and our
boys, the pride of Our nation,
rushed to arms without asking
why, and their reward is STAR
Walton and death, but not dis
honor.
II know for a fact the suffer-
ing of the heroes and martyrs of
this unjust war. My three
nephews are victims-one a
stricken, suffering man through
dirt and starvation at Chicka
maugs another a hero of San
Juan, corporal OF the gallant
Seventy>frst, sent home on the
the Grand Clutches, is dying of
fever at Montauk. His last ap-
peal for help, a pathetic cry to
reach the Mothers of Cavalry,
was, II am ragged my shoes
are gone l have no hat l am
hungry"
"Where will patriots be found
should another war come upon
us after this terrible crime of
our nation in the name of hui
mainly l do believe in your
honor and integrity of pupose.
So do most of our people, but
the time is limited, in view of
these terrible cala1nities, and the
head of the government must
act, or greater war will be til e
destiny of Our country. Do not
be deceived, but listen to the
voice of public opinion, usual
ly the voice of God, and ask
where shall humanity bel
found Act without fear or fa>
vor and the world will applaud,
but any yielding for patronage
or policy at this critical hour
should wipe our country from
the face of the earth as another |

upon our people great national
crime in the name of humanity. |
