tain Coghlan of the Raleigh, who is so I'M
familiar with illustrated papers that when
Colonel Bryan visited the ship the gallant
captain did not recognize the silver cham
pion and the latter had to introduce himself.

The death at Manila of Sergeant Charles
B. Preacher; a former resident OF the Black
Hills, closed the career of a soldier of many
wars. The Spearish Mail SAWS he fought
in the confederate army from Bull Run to
Gettysburg; served in the French army at
Sedan, and under Don Carlos in 1872, when
he was made a prisoner OF war and was
released under intervention of the British
minister. Then he drifted back to the United
States and enlisted in the regular army,
serving until 1891 in the Fourth and Second
infantry. About six years ago he went to
the Hills and lived a precarious life as sheep
herder. When the recent Spanish-American
war broke out Preacher was again at the
front, and he welcomed hostilities as afford
ing him a chance for honorable death. He
went to Manila with the South Dakota boys,
served with honor and distinction, and his
bones will forever remain in the land of
Filipinos. He reached the goal of his de-
sire-an honorable death.
