boiler, one-fourth inch in thickness,
is riveted and brazed. The tender is
as carefully finished as the engine and

ROMANCE OF THEWAR
HOW AN OFFICER WAS COURT
MARTIALED.

Outgenersled by a Powerful Amerl-
can Coup-Gavs Away His Medals-A
Pathetic Farewell.

Many OF the tragedies Of the Spanish
American war will remain unwritten
and many will probably never be told
For the soldiers OF Spain the horrors
OF the war did not altogether cease
with the declaration OF peace. The
story which am about to relate proves
this.

who nad served his country we'll Tor
many years, and whose reward was a
sentence Of ignominious death at the
hands OF his own countrymen. For
aught l know the execution of the de-
cree may already have taken place.
At any rate l saw him sail for Spain
hopeless and broken old man. The
death sentence had already been pass
ed upon him and at his own request he
was going home-to die. l was in
San Juan, Porto Rico, about a week
bef9re the evacuation. The streets
and cafes were filled with Spanish Of
ficers. l found them to be both cour-
teous and dignified. Yet there was
much Of pathos in their bearing. Like
the French who contemplate the drap-
ed statue, representing Strasburg. in
the Place de la Concord, and think Of
Alsace-Lorraine, so these men gazed
fondly at Casa Blanco, once the resi-
dence Of Ponce de Leon, and thought
sadly Of their four centuries Of pos
session. One Of our officers volun-
teered one day to take me on visit
to Col. San Martin, who had command
ed the Third battalion OF the Spanish
troops, and who was then a prisoner
IN the barracks. When l was told
that he was under sentence of death
Tor cowardice l was not predlsposed to
his favor. But when l saw the man
and talked with him my feeling of re-
vulsion changed to one OF great pity
The story Of his disgrace is soon
told. He was in command of the
Spanish troops in several Of the inte-
Stor cities. and, being opposed by our
Eleventh regulars. under command Of
Col. De Russy, he retreated from place
to place without as much resistance
as the Spanish commander at the capt.
tai thought a brave man should have
made.
AS matter of fact, his forces were
entirely inadequate to cope with ours,
and the Spaniards were so out general
ed by the United States troops that re-
sistance was suicidal. Upon Col. San
Martins arrival at San Juan he was
court martialed in a most theatrical
manner, by order Of Gen. Macias, gov

dark green or dark blue, and on their
heads the married women wear a most
becoming white muslin cap. But un-
married girls must not fall into the
error of wearing these caps simply
because they are so pretty and lend
such softness to the face, for in Nor
way the young girls go bareheaded,
and the cap is as much the symbol
OF matronhood as wedding ring.

tne farmers and peasantry, tempted by
the high prices offered by tourists, have
sold them in large quantities. These
ornaments, which are silver or silver
gilt, are worn round the throat az

and give most striking finish to the
costumes. They are easily initiated,
and, indeed, many Of those sold as real
