which mover assemblies within the walls

Has Fatal Prediction.

Great Falls, March 16.-Prvate L.
Hoffman, who served in the Cuban
campaign as a member of Roosevelt's
rough riders, and was at the storming
Of San Juan hill. has recently returned
to his home in Teton county. He tells
a thrilling tale of one mans expert
ence, one of "Teddy's Terrors," and a
Tennessee giant fully six feet and a
half tall and as heavy in proportion.
He was a tough specimen of his kind
and had a rough tongue which, appar-
entity, knew no bridling. On the morn
ing of the fight at San Juan he was
talking the approaching battle over
with a group OF his fellows and after
telling what he intended to do he made
the prediction that "he would shake
hands with the devil and eat supper in
hell that night" His prediction may
have been fulfilled, for almost at the
beginning of the battle he was struck
squarely in the forehead by a Mauser
bullet and fell dead without word.
