The following letter from Corporal
Charles w. Haskell, written to his broth
er, Frank Haskell, manager OF the Grand
junction Dry Goods company in this
city, gives probably the best description
OF battle with the Filipinos that has
ever been written.
Letters from the front are always read
with interest, but this one is especially
full of interest, owing to two facts. The
first is that the writer is we'll known tc
the people of Grand Junction and the
second is because of the elegant manuer
in which the letter is written. MIR.
Haskell is careful to bring out the de-
tails, which have relation to the individ-
ual soldier, and which are omitted in
the press reports.

MY DEAR BROTHER FRANK.
Well, l have been up against it again
Another fight, and it was good one
the best yet.
Saturday afternoon at o'clock l ar
rayed myself in a clean white suit with
white linen shirt and collar (the first
since became sol lier) and went to
company QUARTERS to visit the boys. l
only expected to stay y-'antil 81 but while
I was chatting with crowd of them
firing commenced on the outpost and
call to arms sounded.

duty should have been to have at once
returned to my place at the arsenal.
But my inclination did not point that
way. knew first that under no cir
cumstances would possibly be required
there. and next that was needed with
the company.
did not hesitate minute. but Dor
rowing a pair of brown canvas trousers
from one of the boys and putting on my
blouse, which Dick Wise had kept for
me, soon got my gun apd ammunition
and reported to Captain LaSalle for
duty.
There was no muster. Every one that
was able to go, and some also that were
not able to go, were soon in ranks and
we were soon going to the front at
pretty rapid rate.
We got our position, opposite block,
house 8, at about 1870, and behind an
irrigation check in rice field. We lay
down and rested quietly while the in
surgents blazed away at US. We were
located at the upper point OF long in
cline at the foot Of which the insurgents
were solidly intrenehed. Back Of the
intrenchments the land commenced tc
rise again, and it was on this incline
about 200 yards back Of the intrench-
ments, that the blockhouse was located
All the boys who had done duty on
outpost here were we'll acquainted with
the location; but to me it was new

would be no firing until daylight and re-
eived orders to make ourselves safe as
possible and rest as much as we could

order and weut to sleep amid the sing

stamp around and shake the cold off, for
the enemy's bullets were making il

AN INTERNATIONAL
 @EPISODE
BY D. I. METTO.

Really, speaking fir, n my own first im- pression of the girl, there was nothing very remarkable about her appearance. To be about five feet eight in heighth, with a good chest development and a springy, resoute walk, is not so very uncommon among the girls one sees in many of our American cities nowadays. She was an ath- letic girl, that was all. As for her face well, when Childs told me to take a good look at it in the reception room at the hotel and tell him if I thought it pretty, I simply answered that 1t was fresh, wholesome face. Cnilds seemed to think me deficient as a judge of feminine beauty.
 Childs, in fact, was evidently very much taken with this young woman, whom, he said, he had first met In Paris some months previously, and under inter- esting eircumstances-very
 He thought he was studying art in Paris, did Childs, and under that delusion, he stayed on for years in the Latin Quarter, daubing canvas, and anon making clay im-

Paris, Septembre 20.-The Nautilus will be the name of a submarine boat which the exposition people are building for use in 1900 Just whether this boat will be part of tfae exposition proper or whether it will be one of those side shows which are char acterzed as "freaks'-and which the ex- position people are disowning-your cor respondent is unable to state.
 The Nautilus is being built out of white wood and solid steel, with all the bolts and rivets and fxings inside and out that mark the wonderful new marvels of sea" going crafts. Looking at it's frame, now standing high in the building shops, you would say that it might be seaworthy enough to carry its screw under the waves around the world.
 The Nautilus is shaped like a fish which the builders tell the visitors is the most desirable shape a boat can have. The head

He Believed in Protection

From the New York Short Stories.
 A coored man was arraigned before a magistrate charged with carrying deadly weapons. A razor was found in the defend- ants pocket, and so, when he was brought to the bar of justice, the case against him seemed pretty strong. To the surprise ol the judge and everyone else in the court room he pleaded mot guilty"
 How can you account for the razor be- ing found in your possesson?"
 The defendant grinned and said: "I'll try an 'splain dat, jedge.'
 &"Td like to hear you,' said the judge. HDid anyone threaten your life?' ''No, sah; dey warnt nobody t'reat'nin' nah life, sah."
 "Then, why did you carry it?'
 E'I done toted hit roun, sah, for purtec- shun, sah.'
 For protection, eh? Why, you just ad- mited that your life was in no danger
 "Yo' doan' unerstan' me, jedge; I'll try an 'lucidate tings, sah. Down ter de house whar Ise a-boardin sah, dey is a powah- ful lot of low-down coons, wat jes' would mt stop at takin' tings wat doan' blong ter dem, so jes' put hit in mah pocket fur purtecshun, sah-purtecshun ob de razah, sah."

be included as an accessory to the upset ting of the officer of the law by lending his person to be used as a projeetlle by the two foreign ruffins.
 Chids said that his friend and he laughed so much that they could not run as they should have run on such an occasion. They were attacked with stitches in their sides soon after turning the first corner, and then, finding that they were not pursued, they went cautiously back and peeped, just in time to see the gendarme stalking away with the Frenchman with the point ed beard and the battered hat.
 And how about your bet?' I asked Chlds q suppose she is American, isn't she?"
 "Well. it was a draw" said Childs-"or we agreed to call 1t so. She's a Canadian. I don't suppose we should ever have heard any more about her if she hadn't happened to have a brother studying at the Beaux Arts. He hunted us up. By that time she had gone on to Dresden, but we saw her again in the fall"
 "Well?" I said.
 "Well," said Childs, 'I'm going to ntro- duce you to her. You don't think her pret- ty, eh?'
 That, as I told him, had nothing to do with the case. He thought her pretty and that was quite enough. When I made her acquaintance I certainly found her a very agreeable young woman.

of the fish contains the engines and the steering gear: the tail is for balance; it does for 2 boat much the same work that the tail does for fish. The main salon is in the center and here the passengers are to gather for a submarine trip If the boat is successful there will be refresh ments served aboard, and good times are scheduled
 But the main object of the submarine machine is to enable people to pay visit to the bottom of the sea; or, more accur- ately to the bottom of the Seine. Few per- sons ever get into divers suit and fewer still will ever take a trip in the Holland submarine boat Therefore the submarine fish fills a long-felt want and will be well patronized.
 On top of the strange craft there will be a tower where the pilot sits Here he keeps a sharp lookout for surface steamers. The boat is so built that it can be quite sub merged yet with the tower sticking above the water When the boat dives the man in the tower can observe the surface of the

river above him by means of the deep shadows which the large passing boats create. The presence of a boat overhead does no harm unless the submarine should wish to rise, in which case it would come up underneath the boat and a submarine collision would establish a new feature in water casualties.
 It may be told that the sides of the strange fish will be of heavy glass through which the passengers can observe the wa ter and it's inhabitants.
 The idea of spending an hour under the water is not a strage one. In England there lives, along the banks of the Thames, a gentleman who has built small floating house capable of diving under the water. In this house he sits, beneath the surface, and communes with the fishes while he blows fragrant curling clouds around his head. In France there lives an eccentric gentleman who for years has spent two hours a day under the ocean. His boat is built like a divers suit. The air is pumped through pipes, in the most simple

Have You Bladder or Uric Acid Troubles
You May Be Afflicted and Nof Know It.
Yourself the Wonderful Curative Properties of Swamp-Root the Great Kidney Remedy, Every Reader of the Sunday AgeHerald May Have Sample Bottle Sent Absolutely Free by Mail

It is now conceded by eminent scientists that the most important organs of the body are. the kidneys They filter your blood and work away night and day, whether you are asleep or awake.
 People are apt to believe that kidney dis ease is a rather rare disease, but statistics have proven that it is a most common trouble.
 And the proof of this is that most dis eases, perhaps S5 per cent, are caused in the beginning by disorders of the kidneys.
 BECAUSE they fail to filter your blood.
 Your other organs may need care, but your kidneys most, because they do most.
 If you are sick, begin doctoring your kid- neys, because as soon as they are well they will help all the other organs to health
 When your kidneys are not doing their work some of the symptoms which prove 1t to you are pain or dull ache in the back, rheumatic pains, sciatica, sediment in the urine, scanty supply, scalding irritation in passing 1t, obliged to go often during the day and to get up many times during the night; uric acid, sleeplessness, nervous irri- liability, sallow, unhealthy commplexion. puffy or dark circles under the eyes, loss of energy and ambition.
 If your water, when allowed to remain undisturbed for twenty-four hours, forms a sediment or settling, or has cloudy ap- pearanee, it is evidence that your kidneys and bladder need immediate attention.
 Swamp Root Is the great medical triumph of the 18th century discovered after years of untiring effort and research by the fa- nous kidney and bladder specialist, Dr. Kilmer. It will be found by both men and women just what is needed in all cases of kidney, liver bladder and uric acid trou- bles.
 This famous new discovery, Swamp-Root, will set your whole system right.
 The best proof of this is trial, and noth- ing could be fairer than the offer to send a sample bottle of Swamp-Root and a book telling all about it, and containing some of the thousands upon thousands of testimo- nial letters received from sufferers cured Both the sample bottle and book will be sent absolutely free by mail to any ad- dress.
 The great discovery, Swamp-Root, is so remarkably successful that our readers are advised to write for a free sample bottle, and to be sure and mention reading this generous offer in the Birmingham Sunday

way, and the outlet is managed on the same plan.
 The Holland boat Is the most success ful submarine known, but it is a difficult boat to operate. The fact that it must be armored to be of use in war, and that it must be capable of attacking an enemy and retiring in quick haste. makes it a difficult feat of engineering from start to finish.
 The exposition boat is supplied with com pressed air. It's means of rising and sink ing are by the entrance of water and the driving out of the same. When the boat is to fall. a chamber is opened and the water rushes in The boat immediately be- gins to sink and when a certain amount of water has entered, the chamber closes automatically and remains closed while the boat is propelled by electricity through the water. When the ascent is to be made, upward through the waves, the water is pumped out hydraulically and the boat, re- lieved of it's weight rises. There can be no danger in any event.
