CHAPTER XVI.
Another Battle,

It was quite q journey to the hill,
and after Tempest had trudged awhile,
he began to regret that he had allowed
the Carib to take his horse, But, he
REF 2cted, IL the Indians story was
true, Lola was safe enough, and there
was no need to hurry. 1t was not as
II she were again in danger and he
was hurrying to her assistance.
He was rejoiced, after a tramp OF
2overal hours, to see the wooded slope
c' the hill before him, and in his eager
lope to find Lola still unharmed and
in the Englshmans care, he forgot
The fatigue of the journey and hurried
~ the hill,
Suddenly he was startled by hear
Ing shot and shouts as Of a skirmish.
Another -shot-two, three in quick
succession, and the shrieks of wound
ed Zambos.
IAN attack" said Tempest. "The
scoundrels have discovered the place
Of refuge, and have come to recapture
Lola. / wish had gun But, gun or
not, l must have a hand in this"
Armed only with the knife, the gal
liant American sprang up the hill
toward the sound Of battle,
The course he had taken brought
him up in front Of the ruined temple,
and before his presence was discov-
cred he had ample opportunity of see
ing what was going on.
He saw a crowd Of at least dozen
of the dirty horde under Mattazudo,
led by that worthy himself, who had,
true to Lord Chugmough's prediction,
returned to recover his lost victim,
They hid themselves behind trees or
rocks, and shot into the open end Of
the ruin, now half barricaded with
stones and logs piled up by Lord
Chugmough and William.
Behind this rude fertilization he
could now and then catch a glimpse
of head, and the quick aiming of
rife as one Of the Zambos showed
himself thereby drawing upon him
the unerrlng fire of the EnglIshmen.
Mobs like that led by Mattazudo
lean mostly to guerrilla warfare, and
the bravest OF these followers Of the
half-breed chose rather to shoot from
ambush than in fair fight,
But, numerous as they were, they
were at marked disadvantage when
pitted against the two Englishmen,
for the repeating rifles inside the ruin
were aimed by men Of nerve, whose
hands were steady and whose eyes
were sure, whereas, probably, not one
of Mattazudo's heroes would have hit
a man in full view one hundred yards
away.
When Zambo fired, he was COM
PEELED to show enough OF himself to
give Lord Chugmough something to
shoot at, and this mark wos gener-
ally hit.
It did not take Mattazudo long to
discover that at the rate they were
going the Englshmen would eventu~
ally wipe his force out Of existence.
1t became necessary, therefore, to
boldly attack the ruin in body. The
Englishmen would no doubt kill a
few, but two men in a hand-to-hand
fight must give way to overwhelming
numbers and the lives Of a few
wretches like the Zambos were not to
be considered when the object to be
gained was the possession of Lola
Cara.
So, keeping well under cover him
self-for the pleasure Of possessing
beautiful girl would be naught to a
dead mamie gave the order to
charge.
with a shout the Zambos dashed
forward, two falling by the rides of
the Englishmen at the very entrance;
Hutchinson gazette., 1901-10-17

but Tempest, as he saw one after an
other OF the gang leap into the old
ruin. knew that the gallant defenders
OF the temple and Lola Garza wero
doomed unless he, alone could aid
them,
Gripping his ponlard tightly, he ut
tered a wild yell, and rushing for
ward, he hurled himself over the bar
rlcado and into the very thickest OF
the fight
Here's one for Mcdworth" he
shouted, az he drove his knife into
the heart of fellow whose gun was
aimed at Lord Chugmough's breast,
Here's another for Crespo and the
Republic" he shouted again, giving
another Zambo his death-blow
Take ono in the name 'of Uncle
Sam while we're at H." he yelled,
and another of the nends OF Malta
Judo bit the dust,
His sudden advent disconnected the
Zambos and gave Lord Chugmough
and william an opportunity TO re-
cover. But even now they were OUT
numbered four 10 one, and the fight
seemed hopeless,
Tempest seemed endowed with tho
strength OF seven men, With the
knife IN his right hand he felled one
after another, while his left was busy
hurllng his enemies from him,
He felt a stinglng pain In his side,
and knew that he was wounded, but
still fought on, unmlndful Of the hurt
Lord Chugmough managed to get
close beside him, and 30 we'll did they
work together, with williams calm
and experienced assistance, that eight
men were lying dead and dying upon
the earthen floor Of the ruin, when
the others, panic-stricken and defeat
ed, fled from the place.
William" said Lord Chugmough,
calmly, with his usual drawl, az soon
as the last enemy had disappeared,
that was quite a little skirmish." "
Then turning to Tempest, he said
"And our success, sir, Is due to your
timely-oh, say there, old man,
brace upl William, the brandy-he has
tainted"
Tempest, who had turned to speak
to Lola, who was covering In corner
during the progress Of the fight, had
reeled, staggered and would have
fallen to the floor had not Lord Chug'
mough caught him in his arms
1T Is Jack Tempest" cried Lola
Poor Jack! Poor fellow! Place him
here on these skins. There-mako
him comfortable. Poor jack How
nobly he fought"
"He is a good one" said Lord
Chugmough, working over Tempest
as he spoke.
In q short time Tempest revived
enough to open his eyes, He looked
up at Lola and smiled,
"Ah-Im-- glad--you're cafe" he
whispered.
She knelt down by his side
Brave Jack" she said, Is Arthur
with you?"
mo" was the whispered answer
Hes gone-we-you know the castle
you died--we saw you put--graye-
Namampa told-me ALL was alone

ter-gone-- --togethe r-boat-l--l--"
my heaven!" exclaimed Lord Chug
mough startled out Of his. iron com
posure, THE wound Is bleeding
afresh!"
A gurgling sound in Tempestl
throat had choked further utterance
and the poor fellows fingers grippet
Lord Chugmough's, He was conscious
apparently, for he looked at Lola al
II he wished to say something. Blu
the Zambo had struck too deep. In ,
few minutes the weary eyes closed, thu
great chest gave heave, and the lif'
went out of Jack Tempest.

Asks That Thanks Be rendered to Rear
Admiral Sampson.
Washington, Feb. 15.-President
Mckinley sent a message to congress.
urging that the thanks of congress
be rendered to Admiral Sampson for
his work during the Spanish war as
commander OF the naval force of the
North Atlantic squadron. The mes
sage is as follows:
During our recent war with Spain
the United States naval force on the
North Atlantic station was charged
with various and important duties,
chief among which were the MAIN
tenancc of the blockade of Cuba, aid
ing the army in landing troops and
in subsequent operations, and partic-
ularly in the pursuit, blockade and
destruction OF tho Spanish squadron
under Admiral Cervera. The naval
campaign embracing objects of wide
scope and grave responsibilities, was
conducted with great ability on the
part of the commander in chief and
of the officers and enlisted men under
his command. 1t eliminated in the
annihilation of the Spanish fleet in
the battle of July 3, 1898, one of the
most memorable naval engagements
III history. The result of this battle
was the freeing of our Atlantic coast
from the possibilities to which it had
been exposed from Admiral Cerve
ra's fleet. and the termination of the
war upon the seas. 1 recommend
that, following our national prece-
dents, especially that in the case OF
Admiral Dewey and the ASiatic SQUAD
ron. the thanks of congress be given
to the Rear Admiral William II. Samp-
son, U. S. n, and to the officers and
men under his command, for highly
| distinguished conduct in conflict with
the enemy and in carrying on the
blockade and naval campaign on the
| Cuban coast. resulting in the destruc-
ton of the Spanish feet at Santiago
de Cuba, July 3, 1898.

To Visit the County Institutions OF the
State Semi-Annually.
Des Moincs, Feb. 14.-The board OF
control has issued commissions to
the individuals upon whom it has set
tied to make the semi-annual inspec-
tons of the different county instltu-
tons in which insane are kept. 1t
has divided the state in three dis
tricts, the work of inspection in each
of which will be in charge of three
physicians belonging to the state
hospitals.
The inspectors in the Mt. Pleasant
district will be superintendent Frank
G. Hoyt, and Drs. L. Il. Stevens and
Adams of Mt. Pleasant; in the Ga
rinda district the inspectors will be
superintendent Max L. White and
Drs. e. +. Applegate and Burns; in
the independence district they will
be uperintendcnt G. Fl. Hill and
Drs. j. G. Doolittle and George Body.
The law enacted by the Twenty
eighth general assembly permits the
board of control to delegate the in
speeding of the county institutions
to inspectors to be chosen by itself.
The compensation fixed by law is not
to exceed s. per day for each in
spector and actual expenses incur
red in making a visit. The inspectors
ere required to have their first eX-
animation of the institutions com
pleted by the first of July. They
will lock carefully into the arrange
ments for the care of insane patients
MT ~ to- IN
whether the rules of the board OF
control adopted last fall arc being
lived up to. The first reports of the
inspectors will be awaited with much
interest. 1t is expected institutions
in several counties will fail to com.
ply with the regulations and will have
their patients transferred to state
institutions or county hospitals that
are known to be competent to give
proper care to inmates.
