Whenever any of the American SOL
diers went into Santiago after the sur
render there was always one thing
they reported on their return. That
was that just before you came to the
city, on the big road-the Kings High
way-there was a place where you
could get cold beer in bottles. There
was a sign. Ice Cold American Beer"

He was really an enlisted cavalry
man. but the casualties Of war having

one class Of men who participated
fully in the dangers. but only slightly
in the glory of the Santiago campaign
We're the mule drivers employed by the
commissary department. Nobody con-
meets them with desperate charges on
trench or blockhOuse. yet they "did
their little bit, to quote Corporal
Hogan. toward the quick eXtermin1-
tion of the Spaniola."
4 mule driver was mounted on the
nigh wheeler of SiX-mule team or on
the seat Of a four mule wagon. He got
$50 a month. With this money he
should have received medals for his
labor alone. to say nothing of the dan
ger AS regular drivers We're not en-
listed men, they We're not armed by the
government. They generally carried
| arms however. Some bought arms for
themselves; others. more provident,
managed to gather in the equipment of
some poor soldier who had been put
past the need Of them. The boss Of a
mule train. the jaunty man who rode
ahead to prevent possible entangle-
mentS with a train coming the other
way, always went fully armed. lie
usually carried a Krag carbine and a
| big revolver, and two belts Of cart
ridges. one of 30 and the other Of A.

days of danger he carried the carbne

was a position of peculiar danger dur
ing the early days of the Santiago

to the fighting line. On the road he
was obliged to ride at times half
mile ahead of his train.
In the last days of June it was not
uncommon for Spanish sharpshooters
to nerch themselves in the rear Of
American lines. well screened in high
trees. 1t is easy to understand why a
marksman up a tree might sometimes
| refrain from shooting into an adVanc-
ING regiment. but a lone man on an
ambling mule-that was positive temp
tation with small chance of being
caught up with at the moment. The
| most gentle sharpshooter that ever

nalm would be moved to action at such

shooters were not the gentlest men III
the world. War was the game OF the
moment. and they were doing as they
thought the Americans would do by
them. ..
