A Famous Charge.

A correspondent at Santiago says
that the most glorious achievement
of last Fridays bloody fight was the
charge up the hill 600 yards from the
city by Roosevelt's Rough Riders.
The Spanish shells were pouring dow n
upon them, but they never wavered.
Men fell on every side, but they kept
steadily on until they captured the
Spanish position of San Jusn, which
was supposed to be occupied by 1000
of the $1,000 troops defending Santa
60.
The Rough Riders, the Seventy-frst
New York, and the Tenth cavalry
swept everything before them. They
captured three blockhouses, AL of them
defended by artillery, and did it with
q dash that was irresistible.
1t was in this bloody charge that the
Rough Riders from New Mexico
and Arizona were cut to pieces and
almost destroyed. Capt. w. O.
O'Niell was killed and fifty of the
Rough Riders were killed and wounded
in this charge in few minutes, but
the decimated ranks never wavered
till they planted the stars and stripes
on the fortress at the summit of San
Juan observation-disclosures Citizen.

THE story of the sinking of the
steamship Bourgogne is one Of the most
tragic in recent history. If it had not
been for the war absorbing popular at
tention above all else, the Bourgogne
would be still on every tongue, and
would be remembered for years to come.
Such disaster is far worse than war.
There is no glory in such an awful
death. Five hundred people plunged
into the sea. sucked into q monster
vortex, drowned, within few minutes
five hundred men, women, and chill
dren, robbed of the spark of life in a
twinkling, with no chance to send
q word to . friend or loved one. But
the part of the story that shall live
longest in the minds of Americans is
the bestial brutality that took posses
sion of the crew of foreigners. The
story is told when it is said that of 164
saved out of the total of 725, LOG were
members of the crew and employees of
the steamer. Only one man, the sec
ond officer, showed any regard for the
passengers. In many cases passengers,
helpless women and children. were
stabbed, beaten, their hands cut off, as
they tried to get into the boats, even
after they were in the water. Does
any one think for an instant that an
American or British crew would ever
have left such q record as that? It
was only another "trial of blood.''

THE spectacle of drunken police
