there was plenty OF spare time for

THEHORRORS WAR
WITH LAwroN AT Ell cANEy.
Hoving Recital of Incidents In the santi-
ago Campaign - Capture y Bloci,
House,

Some of the horrors of war appear
very yividly in with Lawton at El
Caney," by Frank Norris, author of
"McTeague," In the June Century:
The blockhouse was taken by the as
sault, but the town still held on, and
Tar to the left the rifles were yet talk
lng. At once the battery moved for
ward, followed by It's supporting regi-
ment. But went on ahead as fast US
my little horse could carry me, left him
with my Cuban guide In grove Of
cocoanut-palms, and following in the
wake Of the charge, climbed the sugar
loaf hill and gained the blockhouse
and Its line Of rlfe-pits. The block
house was horror, the trenches be-
yond description. The first Spaniard
saw was lying at the bottom of n
trench. he was young fellow-they
were NIL young fellows-his face the
color OF wax; one poor dirty hand
hooked like buzzard's claw; his arm
was doubled under him, and-but the
rest is not for words. A bullet wound
Is one thing, but shrapnel smashes its
man, filings him down, and drives and
dints him into the dirt. The dead were
everywhere; they were In the trenches,
In the fields Of pineapple, in corners Of
the blockhouse, and In grlsly postures
half way down the slope of the hill.
The air was full of smells-the smell
of stale powder. Of smoke, of n
horses carcass two days unburied, of
shattered lime and plaster In the
blockhouse, and the strange acrid, salty
smell OF blood. Our soldiers set about
burying the dead and carrying Off the
wounded, and we turned our attention
to the town.
We hurried on, crossed the gully and
stream, and entered the town. The
corporal was under orders to look for
Spanish soldiers, wounded and other
wise, who might still be in hiding. 1t
was not work that six men should have
been detailed to do, and looking back
upon the affair, l see that we CORE
spondents were foOlhardy in going
along. We found the houses still in
tact: our batteries had shelled the
trenches, but not the village. We
cooked our revolvers and went through
the narrow, deserted lanes and streets
and into the larger houses, the Jail, the
hospital, the church. the mayors resi-
dence, and into most of the houses on
the plaza. 1t was uncanny work to
let ones self unbidden into these
houses, pushing open the street door
and entering dark and silent interiors
with unfamiliar furnishings and
strange smells, never knowing what
we should find across the next thres-
hold. In the mayors house came sud
denly upon the body of pla!n-lOoking
girl, lying on the floor, her hair across
her face like a drift of seaweed. She
had not been shot: she had been
stabbed Some dead we found, men
who had crawled away In corners TO
die. In one of the larger buildings on
the plaza we found some forty wound
ed men with no fight left in them, one
of them n most pitlable object.

AN IRON FOUNDRY AT SEA.
The Usual Luxurics of Such Work
Ashore Entirely Missiny.


Ashore Entirely Missing.
A foundry at sea had not been heard
of before the cruise of the Vulcan, says
the Engineering Magazine. Whatever
other kind of naval repair work had
been executed heretofore on board
ship, that of making large brass and
iron castings had not been attempted.
In her facilities for this new line of
work the Vulcan stands pre-eminent
and alone. That the unique equipment
for foundry work was successful is
more than shown by the fact that thou
sands Of pounds of iron and brass cast
ings were made and finished for the
ships OF the feet. The brass furnaces
were kept in almost constant service.
sometimes running off two heats a
day, and making It necessary to carry
the work far into the night, much to
the discomfort OF the men. who were
trying to get some sleep and rest be-
fore another days work. In iron cast
ing not more than one heat was run
of in day. and that usually about 3
O'Clock in the afternoon. For after
filling the molds and dropping bottom.
1t was practically impossible to do
much more in that part Of the ship till
the next morning. Kipling has sung
for the Scotch engineer and stoker. but
there was no heaven-born genius on
board the Vulcan to treasure up the
memories and scenes incident to drop
ping bottom. The usual luxuries OF
such ashore were entirely missing.
Like the fiery furnace OF old. the heat
seemed seven times more intense than
II was wont to be ashore.

wALLA wALLA BONDS AGAIN

Adyices from Walla Walla state that
the attorneys for Morris d Whitehead,
the Portland firm TO which was awarded
the $3.50, 900 Of bonds Walla Walla Is 10
issue 10 buy system Of water works
and build system of sewers, have
found defect in the proceedings which
would make the proposed bonds worth
less. To cure this defect, the city au-
thorities propose TO call another special
election 20 ratify new ordinance. Nor
ris x Whitehead offer 10 pay the cost Of
holding the special election aud the ex-
penses Of printing the bonds, in addi-
tion 10 the price they first Offered for
them, provided the bonds are awarded
10 them after the special election, at the
original price, without the formality Of
again making a competitive bid.
II will be remembered that, az stated
In TmE JouRSAL some two weeks ago,
tl33,O0 Of these Walla Walla bonds
draw az per cent interest, and S2l7,c)O
draw per cent, and that Morris X
Whitehead offered s2,lC) premium ON
the lot.
This was the best offer received aud
was nowhere near as good as the terms
obtained by this city in her popular
loan ON 4 per cent bonds at par.
salem's example has been freely and
fayorably commented on by the press Of
the state, and II is probable that this
has had something 10 do with the gener-
ons CD offer Of Whitehead Il Co., above
noted. They had driven a good bargain
with the city, and wish 10 keep the
matter cinched, perhaps in fear that
