In eight minutes from the time the
torpedo boats emerged from the harbor
they We're destroyed, and the Iowa $
course was set for the chase of the
cruisers. The Teresa and Oquendo were
already on the beach or heading for it,
and Captain Evans gave his attention
to the Nizcaya, which seemed bent on
putting about to re-enter the harbor.
The Iowa, initiated by the Indiana,
headed inshore to cut off the retreat of
the Nizcaya, but the alarm was ground
less-the Spaniard was making for the
beach and the reason was apparent
when she burst into flames aft. Her flag
was still flying, and Captain Evans
stood fer her, giving her the full benefit
of his . inch guns. Afew minutes later
the Vizcaya was all aflame and going
straight on the beach. The Iowa ran
up as near TO the wreck as the water
would permit, and "Fighting Bob,
with fighting crew, which had been
shouting "Give 'em - for the
Manel' all the morning, set to work
TO rescue the unfortunate crew Of the
doomed Vizcaya.
Captain Evans knew that the Iowa
would be of no advantage in the chase
after the swift Colon and turned his
attention to the suffering Spaniards on
the beach. Numbers of them were
struggling in the water, having jumped

Vizcaya had stranded about 400 yards
from shore. and Cuban insurgents
opened fire upon the unfortunates.

nature. He declined the sword pre-

cheered to the echo by the seminaked,

turrets, along the rail and upper works
of the Iowa.
Just as the boats were being lowered
from the Iowa to pick up the Spaniards
the flagship New York, with Sampson
on board. passed in chase of the swift
Colon. The commander in chief shouted
to Evans, Glow many have you lost ?"
The cheers of the lowas crew at the
sight of Sampson were drowned by the
hurrahs from the flagship when Captain
Evans answered the hail with, mot a

For some time Captain Evans ma
neuvered with the intention of ramming
or torpedoing the enemy, but he found
his speed too slow. The Teresa had
passed the Iowa, and the Nizcaya and
Oquendo were abreast of the active
Yankee. Captain Evans swung his ship
so az to give the Teresa his full port
broadside, then as quickly swung
around to bring the Vizcaya under the
stan board guns. The Nizcaya got the
full force of broadside, the forward
guns meanwhile firing at the Teresa
After deluging the decks Of the Vizcaya
with iron hail the Iowa swung again,
and her course lay across the path of
the Oquendo.
Finding that he could not keep speed
with the Oquendo, Captain Evans shift
ed the helm and lay his ships course
parallel to that Of the Oquendo. The
vessels were abeam and about 1000
yards apart The Iowa's rapid fire bat
teries were manned, and the full force
of the starboard battery was given to
the Spaniard. AT the same time the
| guns or the Indiana, from position OF
the quarter of the Oquendo was firing
at her, and the Oregon also.
The Colon, being the fastest cruiser,
was the last in the line, and, keeping
inside the other ships, at first passed
ahead getting in shots whenever her
consorts uncovered the range. Two of her
shells struck the Iowa, one at and one
above the water line. Seeing the Ore
gon dash for the Colon, Captain Clark
turned his attention to the torpedo
boats, which came out of the harbor
just as the Iowa settled down to a
fighting chase westward after the fee
ing Spaniards The Iowa, Indiana and
Oregon sighted the torpedo boats at the
same time, and all opened fire which
the plucky Spaniards returned. while
the American shots chuIned the water
into foam all about them. The little
Gloucester dashed in, also, and was
nearly struck by the Iowa fire, being
enveloped in the smoke of her own guns
and that of the battleships. A large
projectile, from the Iowa probably, cut
one of the torpedo boats in two Just as
her boilers exploded. But in all this

to let Jim have the resting place. ThosA
that hang ought to do the buryng where

know what the law is about renters, but
couldn't you bury Jim in your own place
and then move him when you had to
move? He would be safer after he had
been buried awhile, for the doctors DON'T
want that kind. | would truly like to he
with you at the hanging and the mourn

giYeth and the Lord taketh away, and
that Jesus feeds His lambs. Write to me
