account Of themselves had they been
pitted against the SpGnards.
The men from iowa were similar iii

The Jersey men were a jolly, devil
may-carc lot of soldiers They were
prompt in drill and good tacticianS. There
were many Germans among them, and
they pridcd themselves that the best lager

pcnsed ut their "canteen."
The Texans We're q heavy, brawny lot
of men, slow of movement, but sure, and
they prided themselves that every other
man in the regiment was a dead shot.
They were impatient to get at the Span
iards, and many 4 swarthy don would

the deadly fire of the Texas rihemen.
The Connecticut Signal mea comprised,
perhaps, the most intelligent body of men
at Camp Cuba I.ibre. aud many of them

electricians and expert telegraph Oper-

The several troops Of these Rough

like ccntaurs and yelled like demons or

Maj.-Gen. Fitzhugh Lee had vari-

commanded. They were all extremely

otherwise. Although armed with the old

At the first round off goes Brother Boer,

thing we do not want 10 do is to clear

very remark has often been made to me
when talking about the uSeleSSneSs Of
guns at the present stage OF the war.
They are a hindrance, because they have

The natives dislike work, but they eyl-
IDENTIFY put great deal of labor into the
fine system of man-traps, trenches, and
barricades with which the Isle of Panay
seemed to be thckly studded from one
shore to the other On the road to Leon
there are some very fine trenches, repre-
senting at least six months labor on the
part of an army of workers.
1t is supposed that the native soldiers
impressed the peaceful natives into service
for this sort of labor during the several
months time they had before the Amer
leans forced their way into the interior.
1t was not until November, 1899, that
these interior cities and towns were in the
hands of the Americans. Previous TO that
time the insurgents held them, and they
had long time in which to fortify favor
able positions all along the line Of roads
from Iloilo to the important centers.
On the road to the former rebel strong
hold, Santa Barbara, are some trenches OF
the kind shown in Figure III, which were
made with the evident intention of fight

retreating in safety. Some of the roads

and almost simultaneously / heard the
roar of the explosion,
Both the engineer and the fireman
were killed. and the locomotive was fit
for nothing much but the scrap heap
when it fell to the ground. The crown
sheet over the firebox had blown out.
THE strange thing about the explosion
was that no white steam was seen. You
know that perfectly dry steam is invisi-

An extensive tour Of duty in November
1900, which necessitated crossing the
Island of PaHay, gave me pretty thor
ough knowledge of the ingenious man-trapS
and pitfalls which at that time were dis
tributed all through the travelled sections
Of the island for the purpose OF entrapplnG

The insurgents may be poorly trained as
soldiers, but as diggers of trenches and
devisers of deadly pits they are superior
The entire country from llollo over the

island had been honeycombed by trained

which not only represented months of la
Dor on the part of large force of workers,
but which showed the engineering ability
Of q master hand.
For example, on the road from lloilo,
through Molo TO OtOn and beyond. there
are some samples of trench and barl1cade
work that would do credit to the engineer
ing corps of any army. The nicely with
which the whole thing was planned is
wonderful, and the skillfui manner in
which the natives use the bamboo IN con-
nection with the constructive Work is an
other feature of note.
In Figure / is given the plan Of trench

was supposed that the American troops
would make a fight, and evidently the
rebel leaders intended to make a stand
at each of these places. Everything was
arranged with that end in view.

some very much like them, are built.

got too hot there, they could run through

Next the retreat would be through f to
the next cross trench. And these tactics
could be kept up indefinitely, or until the

The earth was thrown up in front of
