LETTER FROM SETH DlBBlE.
He Is Clerking for Major Adams and
Having "a Good Time.


Great Falls, Sept. 12.-Seth Dibble of
Company A writes the following letter
to friend in this city:
"Once more / write from Cayite. and
l suppose we will stay here until we
are ordered aboard our homeward-
bound boat. We moved, that is the list
and Sd battalions, over here about three
weeks ago, while the I'd went out on the
south line to relieve the Wyomings,
who were to go aboard. l am clerking
for Major Adams now, as he is the dis
trict surgeon, and is entitled to clerk.
/ was detailed on special duty about a
week and half ago. l am having fine
time, very little to do and lots or time
to spend in sleeping. / have an insur-
gent bolo, or gun, which / am going to
take home with me and hang on the
wall in my room. 1t Is an old Reming-
ton and is still in the same condition as
when found, all over mud and corrup-
ton. When the natives started TO run,
the fellow who owned it threw it in
mud hole, and you can see the conse-
quences.
"There is not much fighting going on
now. The regulars had a little fight at
San Fernando the other day, but 1t did
not amount to much. I'll tell you our
boys had the fight out there just before
they came in. The natives showed more
nerve than ever before They advanced
bushes until they got very close. Then
they formed skirmish lines and ad-
vanced, having the town surrounded
with the exception of small place
where the railroad runs, the entire rail-
road being guarded. Well, our boys let
them advance until they could see the
whites of their eyes, as 1t We're, and
then opened fire on them with such a
fire as they had never seen before.
They did not last long and he had them
on the run in short time, but not be-
fore 300 of their bravest were lying on
the battlefield dead. The bodies were
brought in from the field on govern
ment wagons and the native amigos
were allowed to see them, as the sight
would tend to make them form better
opinion of American craftsmanship.
I'VE have just had nine-day dose
of rainy weather, and I tell you it is
not at all pleasant in these regions in
rainy weather. The government fur
nishes nothing that will keep off the
rain. l will admit that rubber ponch Is
are issued, but they will not shed water
after two or three days usage.
1.-THE battalion on the south line
waded in water so deep that the backs
of their knapsacks were soaked. We
have Just received the report that we
will go aboard on the 21st of August
and will stop at two seaports in Japan.
L dOn KNOW just What tNo 'pNiS ny
will be, but we are to have chance
to go ashore in both places. Won't that
be fine?
I'VE have about 450 prisoners of war
confined in the old fort here. They have
been dying off quite rapidly with dis
ease known as 'beri-beri' l just made
out the report for the month of July
and there are 73 deaths among them
for that month I have a package of
Filipino cigarettes l am going TO bring
home for your special benefit; that IS,
one large package. consisting of 20
smaller ones, with 80 cigarettes in each
package"
