Major General Adna r. Chaffee, who
is to command our forces in China, is
one Of the quiet, modest heroes of FL
Caney, who led his brigade, consisting
of the seventh, twelfth and seven
teenth Infantry regiments, regular,
army up the bloody heights on that
memorable lst of July, 1898. He has
been in the army forty years and has
most gallant record. Chaffee was
born in Ohio in April, 1912, and en-
tered the service as private soldier in
the sixth cavalry in July, 1861. In
March, 1868, he was commissioned sec
ond lieutenant, becoming a first lieu
tenant in February, 1865; a captain in
October, 1867; major Of the ninth
cavalry in July, 1883, and Lieutenant
colonel Of the third cavalry In June.
1891 He took part in all the cam
paigns Of the army of the Potomac. be-
ing severely wounded at Fairfield and
Brandy Station, and was brevetted for
sallantry at the battles OF Gettysburg
and Dinwiddie Court House Since
the civil war he had been actively en-
gagged most Of the time in campaigns
against the hostile Indians on the
frontier up TO the breaking out OF
hostilities with Spain in 1898. At
that period he was Instructor In the
school Of cavalry and infantry tactics
at Fort Riley Kan. He was with Gen.
eral McCook in the department of
Arizona, afterward the department OF
Colorado, as inspector general. and
then was sent to Fort Leayenworth as
instructor in tactics At Ell Canev.
General Chaffee having been given
command of a brigade, the fight was
opened by him, and his men bore the
brunt Of it throughout the day. Chat
fees conduct was magnificent and ex-
cited the admiration or the entire
army To his brilliant leadership. in
fact the signal victory OF the dag
was chiefly due. but no one could ever

Georgetown and Columbia were

ter the start Wisconsin rowed her IN

miles Pennsylvania and Cornell were

oyerhauled the badgers. Just below
the bridge Wisconsin caught the QuaH-

last mile was heartrending struggle.
and although the badgers cut down the
Pennsylvania lead they were unable to
catch her. The men all finished In good
condition except for raw lungs. In the
Cornell boat there was distress, and
Captain Dalzel collapsed. As Wiscon-

they passed under the bridge half

A spoksnite IN waIIuIs.

The Spokane Review seems to have
passed this way by the tone oflast weeks
issue. Yes boss. we steal cattle, drink
pizen, chaw dog.leg terbacker. and lay
fer suckers, but we are sorry to state that
the 4th passed off quietly, only flags be-
ing used. This was done TO notify the
outlying thugs that it was only july and
not roundup. However, greenhorn
from Spokane had his leg stretched last
week to the tune of $50 and from the
way he squeeed one would have thought
it was the old tune that killed some
body's COW. He was trying to get some
thing for nothing. The people Of Wallu-
la have scarcely recovered from their
surprise at finding such large amount
of ready-made 'dough" on the tender
foot of Spokanite. Usually they are
not molested as it is considered a waste
OF time and energy to monkey with them.
Energy did l say? I'll take that back.
They're too soft to require that ingre.
