BEFORE SANTIAGO.
A Sentry Who Followed the Instruc-
lions of His Superior to the
Letter.

Fifteen minutes after being left
alone he murmrrs: my, how the
time creeps along. I wish I were re-
ieved." What's that!" is the involun-
tary exclamation. ''Halt! Who is
there?" he excla:ms, bringing his gun
to the charge, with the bright steel
bayonet glistening in the moonlight.
For de Lawd's sake, don't shoot!
I'll STOP" says the colonel's negro
servant as he emrrges from the shade
of the trees.
"Go back to your tent" sternly COM
mands Smith. You can't leave camp
after taps" and the darby, half scared
to death, walks rapidly back to the
horses.
1.-TWO o'clock and all is WE'LL" calls
out sentry No. l, and the cry, taken
up by Nos. 2 and 3, is repeated by
4, and then grows fainter and fainter
in the distance AS it passes around the
camp.
Now one of the boys who has missed
roll-call and gone to Chattanooga, tries
to steal through the lines.
'Halt! Who gees there?"
A dark form springs from the ground
and attempts to rush through the
lines, but the sharp click click of the
sentinels gun as he cocks it brings the
offender to a halt, and corporal of
the guard No. 4!'' rings out upon the
still night air, and tie prisoner is taken
to the guard-kcuse after the corporal
arrives upon the scene.
Just as No. 4grows weary and sleepy
once more ligh, comes bobbing along
the line and again the challenges:
"Halt! Who goes there?" and the
reply: "Ofhcer of the day." and the
order: "Advance, officer of the day,
and be recognized" is given by the
sentry. After recognition the officer,
stepping up closely, scanning the face
of the recruit, says: "What are your
general orders?"
my general orders are to take
charge Of this post and all government
property in view; to walk my post in
military manner. keeping constantly
on the alert, observing everything
which takes place within sight or hear
ing; to report every brea CHI"
There, that VII do. see you know

to come to you before challenging?'
queries the officer.
Thirty feet,' answers the guard.
"And before being recognized?"
"Not within eight feet"
swell, see tina: you do that in the
future, then," and thus CURLY repri-
handing the sentry, the officer passes
on his round.
At last the welcome relief appears,
and after challenging and being rec
ognized, Smith, now.thoroughly tired,
passes on to the remaining posts with
the relief. Coming to the rear of the
camp the corporal. after passing along
enc post and failing to be challenged,
calls out: ''Where are you? Why don't
you challenger" And a new recruit,
stepping out from behind a tree, re-
marks: ~ saw you. : I knew you
couldn't find me-" It seems the COM
handing officer had told him not to
expose himself unnecessarily on sentry
duty in the enelny's country, and he
adopted this mode of practicing the

DIAz DEFEATS THE spANIARDs.
Desperate Battle Reported In Pinnr

desperate battle RepOrted In Pinur
del Rio Province.
New York, July 2.-According to advices
received here by the Cuban Junta, Gen.
Diaz recently had a battle with the Span
ish troops in the western part of the PROV
lnce of Pinar del Rio, in which he came
out victorious, taking a great many pris-
oners. The Spanish loss was heavy, while
the Cuban lost less than 80 men.
After the battle half of the company of
the soldiers from the Spanish garrison
marched into the Cuban camp. with their
arms and ammunirions, and offered their
services, giving as reasons for their deser-
ton i'll treatment on the part of the Of
ficers ana Insufficient food.
Gen. Diaz has with him about 5000 SOL
diers, well armed and equipped, and a
large number of reconcentradoos who are
without arms. The food supply is very
short, however, and 1t Is with great diff
ilcGlty that frequent foraging expeditions
keep the camp partly supplied with food.
There has been much suffering among the
concentrates, but ii has been greatly
allcviated since they left the cities and
joined the insurgenr armies.
-Four Spanish spies were caught in the
Cuban camp, and after a speedy trial by
court-martial they were sentenced and
promptly shot.
The Spanish prisoners are kept under
close guard, but are fed and well treated.
Hitherto it has been the practice to release
the Spaniards captured, after depriving
them of their arms and ammunition, but
it is now the purpose of Gen. Diaz to keep
the prisoners in orders that they may Re
