be transported in wagons, being left finally at Fort Lgonier. The little army also carried large quantity of stores, and drove herd of cattle and flock of sheep ahead of 1t.
 At Fort Ligonier nothing could be learned of the fate of the fort at the forks of the rivers. All scouts sent out in the direction for days had either been murdered or driven back. and the country seemed to be swarming with redskins. Taking 450 of his most effective men and portion of the supplies. Bouquet pushed forward in an effort to gain Fort Pitt. 50 miles ahead. The road led through . narrow denle in the val. ley of Turtle creek. and not wishing to pass 1t by day. with its perils of an ambush. Bouquet went into camp on c barren hill in the early afternoon. His plan was to slip through under cover of darkness. The place was near . little stream called Bushy Run. an afnuent of Turtle creek. and the en- gagement there took its name from the stream
 Bouquet judged rightly. for the In- dians, who had been apprised of his coming by their runners. had with drawn most of their forces from the siege of Fort Pitt and were hiding among the hills near at hand. Their exact number has never been learned. but they greatly outnumbered the force under Bouquet. probably two or three to one. The whites had hardly got settled in camp when. with fear full yells. the ssvages charged upon them. The camp was taken by sur. prise. but the soldiers and voodsmen quickly formed and hurled themselves upon the foe. discharsing their guns in their faces. and then making bay onet charge upon them. The Indians scattered and disappeared. but were soon pouring in a Ealling fire again from places of hiding. Thus the bat tie. continued during sll of the hot afternoon Git was August 6. i7ss). No sooner would the Indians be routed from one place than they would skulk 10 another and fire from there. always under cover.

ter could be reached, and all suffered greatly from thirst. The Indians com pletely surrounded them and kept up a scattering fire all night.
 Many of the red lends who had cut Braddock's army to pieces eight years before were among the besiegers. and they gloated in the thought that they had only to hang upon the outskirts of the little force, and gradually wipe 1t out by the methods of warfare which had been successful in the memorable battle of the Monongahela. Bouquet, too. realized that this would be their fate unless he could outwit the sayages. and in the long hours of the night he formulated his plans.
 With the break of day the Indians renewed the attack viciously, and Bou- Quet's men replied with spirit. The fighting went on for some hours be- fore Bouquet deemed the time and circumstances favorable for his coup. The hill was cut on one side by ra. vine. Some distance to one side of this the main attack finally centered on two companies of Highlanders. The commander communicated to his men what he expected them to do, and all at once the two companies gave way and fell back rapidly. as if in retreat. Other men partially closed the gap. as if trying to cover the retreat.
 The Indians. thinking they had the whites on the run. broke from them cover with yells of triumph and poured into the open. The defenders checked them for time until the

 Justice Wilson died while on the southern judicial circuit and was bur fed at Edenton, N. 0. It was the cher- ished desire of those who recognized his work in thu early struggles of the republic to have him rest in tho midst of the scene of his most important la bors.
 The body was disinterred on Tuesday and was conveyed to this city by the United States gunboat Dubuque.
 Before the exercises at the church the body lay in state in the declaration room of Independence hall where the general public was given an oppor- tllnity to pay last tribute.

SPANISH WAR VETS
THEIR ORGANIZATION sHoWs
 RAPID GROWTH,
eueesstsd That This Young eoolsty VIII Become the Logical euoosss.
 or of the e. A h

The rapid increase n tho member ship of the organization known as the United Spanish War Veterans was strikingly evident at the third annual encampment just held at Washington, D. c. President Roose- welt is one of the members of the association. and he is on the roll as "Comrade" Roosevelt, of the rough rfders, and many of his old companions in arms st the fight at San Juan hill pitched their tents near the White House. Among those who have united with the so- ciety during tho past year have been Maj. Gen. Frederick D. Grant, commander of the department of the east; Rear Admiral Joseph B. Cogh. Ian and Lieut.. Gen. Nelson A. Miles. retired.
 What the organization stands for is exemplifled in its uniform, which is half blue and half gray. Among its membership are old campaigners for the union cause, as well as soldiers of the confederacy. although there are comparatively few veterans of the war of the rebellion to be found in It's more than 200 camps.
 Few organizations have made such rapid advances as that which have been attained in the last year by the United Spanish American War Veterans. In that brief period the order has nearly doubled its mem. bership. It now enroils 10000 men in the United States. The depart ment of New York, which is the strongest of the state organizations, has 4.000 members. With between 300.000 and 100000 men from which tor draw. the veterans will be able to attain large membership within the next few years. according to the con. fident predictions of the officers.
 First in the field was the National Army and Navy Spanish War Vet erans. which was chartered in Ohio: second came the Spanish-American War Veterans. who first gathered in the state of New York, and last the Service Men of the Spanish War, who first convened in Illinois.
 In 1904 the three organizations met in one convention in St. Louis. and were amalgamated into the United Spanish War Veterans.
 Buttons indicating membership in the United Spanish War Veterans are now frequently seen in the coat lap els of men one meets in the streets. The official badge, which is also worn in button style. consists of a St. Andrews cross of bronze. The top arm bears the word Cuba" the right arm has Porto Rico." and the left arm Philippine Islands" while at the bottom are the letters "U. 8. A." In the center medallion is sol- dier at the position of charge bay. onets," and sailor with cutlass in
