TELEGRAPHIC BRIEFS.

Stevensville, Mich, Dec. I-Peter Nissen, who started across Lake Mich igan in his boat 'Fool Killer No. 3, '' was found dead on the beach near here today. Nissen is supposed to have been washed ashore during the night. His boat was lying on the beach nearby badly damaged. His hands and face of Nissen were frozen and his features reflected his suffering. His clothing was somewhat torn. It is thought he could not have been dead a great while. It is presumed he was unable to lard last night, tossing about by the gale and that when his machine collapsed Nissen, being chill ed, was drowned.

Mr.. Dickex Is Fined 81.

w. Lyle Dickey, who was formerly
the ice trust" was in police court
this morning on the charge of driving
on sidewalk. He was arrested yes
terday by officer Dusenberry while
driving along the south walk of his
property at 1926 Van Buren, street
Mr.. Dickey admitted having violated
the city ordinance, but gave an ex-
PLANTATION. He recently returned from
Omaha, where he is in business, and
discovered that his family had been
unable to get the horse and buggy out
of the barn for a week, owing to the
condition of Huntoon street between
Jackson and Van Buren, streets. The
street, which is very narrow, is IN
paved, and in an impossible condition,
beside being almost completely cover
ed by the double tracks of the Street
Railway company. THE only way he
could get the rig out was to drive
from his barn to Van Buren, street
along the north sidewalk of Huntoon.
Mr.. Dickey was fined 81.

ance with the judges decision, should
be given.
BY this time the judges were out
of town and there was no way of
mystery, because the awarding COM
mittee of Topeka women disagree.
Each one has a different recollection
of the decision in this particular case.
Yesterday Mrs. c. o. Knowles, presi-
dent of the Ceramic Art club, and
Mrs. H. Q. Bowman, president of the
Nautilus club, got together to talk the
matter over and come to an anlicable
agreement. They communicated with
the members of the awarding commit
tee, with the result stated-no verdict.
TO further complicate the matter,
Mrs. Bowman, who is president of the
Nautilus club, is also a member of
the Ceramic Art club but naturally
her sympathies rather incline to the
club in which she holds the higher
position. Both clubs maintain that
they don't really care; it makes no
difference how the thing is decided,
ONLY"
So what's to be done? Obviously
nothing until the judges, who live in
Amherst, Mass, Omaha, Neb., and Sa-
lima, Kas., can be heard from. If
their memories prove as defective as
those of the awarding committee
members, watch for the plot to
thickens We Will probably not hear
the-~fast of this business before the
centennial jubilee in 1854 And
meanwhile the suspense is awful.
There really seems to be no way to
avoid trouble when floral parade is
given, although the committee
thought they had been very discreet
and escaped all possibility of discord
by dispensing with the services of a
floral queen. There is a certain Japa-
nese proverb which says that one
must be as careful in ones dealings
with q woman as with red pepper and
IT IS respectfully submitted to future
floral parade committees.

night is his fuIhllment of his ante

No Auto Parade.

The automobile parade planned for
this morning did not materiafize for
the simple reason that not enough
cars turned out It was planned to
get all of the machines in the city to
line up and give visitors and promi-

turnout was to include the decorated
machines which We're used in the
flower and trades display parades.
The threatening weather which
prophesied rain all morning probably
did much to cut down the number OF

LETTER NO. 1.
at Foot OF San Juan Hill.

July l., 1913.
This has been O day OF terror and
yet this evening finds me s~ingularly
cool and calm. . : " The fighting
started about daybreak with an artil-
lery duel, in which our artillery seems
to have got the worst Of it. l hear that
Grimes has been shelled out of his po-
sition OF Ell Pozo and that Capron's
artillery was worse than useless. You
see, our artillery was using black pow
der. while the Spanish used smokeless
powder. So, while we were a perfect
mark for them, we could not locate
their batteries at all. The casualties
have been pretty heavy. I hear to-
night that our division has lost about
$50 killed and 1000 wounded. Our
regiment lost something over 100
killed and wounded. but | don't know
just how many. l thought we would
be the whole thing on account of hav-
ing taken this hill, but the adjutant
(who is now Lieutenant Koehler) says
the Rough Riders will get all the credit
because they have their press agents
along. And, what do you think, they
were not ever in the fight. They left
the main advance column early in the
morning. and going of to the right
got lost somewhere in the chaparral
and did not get out again until to-
night. l just got back from a walk
along the line and find the army strung
out like this: letter contains n map

The regulars are simply wonderful as
fighters. They go at 1t just as if 1t was
sport instead of tragedy, and the fact
that men are killed and wounded con-
tlnually don't seem TO bother them at
all. They take it as a matter of course.
I'm glad I'm a regular. They
go ahead and do their business without
any fuss or feathers. But I'm sorry
that we will not get any credit for our
work. They say our charge will make
Roosevelt President some day. and that
that is the only thing he went into the
war for-just politics. Well, l suppose
| shouldn't kick, as / am looking for a
laurel wreath myself. The ad%jutant
says I'll never be heard Of unless 1
should chance to get killed, when I
will occupy q line in the papers in
the list of dead and wounded.
When / was over on the right flank
about an hour ago the Rough Riders
were just getting up to the line in the
position assigned them. Where they had
been all day l don't know, but the talk
is that they were having sport on a hill
somewhere in the rear. l will proba-
bly, know more about this tomorrow
or next day. 1t is rumored that we
will advance again tomorrow and
drive the Spanish into the harbor. They
retired in pretty good order to-day, as
they only left eight dead on the hill
and no wounded, so far as l know.

General Miles official report contains
the reports Of scores of officers on the
battle Of San Juan, not one of which
bears out Colonel Roosevelt's absolute
" false report of the battle contained
In his Trough Riders" There is not any
official report of the battle from any
source e~orrohorating Colonel Roose-
velt's official report of the battle. l
therefore repeat the charge that
Colonel Roosevelt has obtained promo
ton to the Presidency of the United
States by a report Of his own alleged
heroic acts at San Juan Hill, which re-
ports were knowingly false. l repeat
there was but one blockhouse. and one
entrenehment on the San Juan Hills.
These were captured by the infantry.
This infantry had lain FOR hours in
and around the sunken road in advance
OF Kettle Hill, and AFTER the infan-
ny huu Niptuftu san JUN, h~oostFtll
and his Rough Riders came out of the
tall grass, where they had been con-
cealed for hours. and went up Kettle
Hill, which had never had upon II an
entrenehment or a Spanish soldier.
Colonel Roosevelt had had no MILL
tary experience. He left a position in
the navy, where he might have been
of some service, in order to take a
spectacular position in the army, where
he was the laughing stock of regulars
and volunteers alike. All the world
honors a brave soldier, but all the
world despises false pretences.
