 Aoltou. drawn irresistibly by the spirit of tke conflict had seized a car bine from 8 dead soldier, and in his
 excitement he cut across from the foot of Kettle Hill and found himself first on the edge of the small lake ly- ing between Kettle Hill and san Juan hiil, and then, as though the transi- ton had been affected by magic, he was among Hawkins infantrymeD on he slope of San Juan-Iying down and firing, then going forward in a crouching rush, just as he saw the men around him doing. Once, lying down, he looked behind and on either side and maryeled that the long, thin blue line of charging men was not wiped out utterly. There seemed so few of them.
 Here atld there h5 saw advancing S ups, and then again one man, yell ing and firing all by himself. The bullets poured upon them pitilessly. Men were falling on all sides.
 As he yeered along the slope of the hill a young regular officer passed him uneoncernedly snapping pictures of the charge and yelling for his men to come on. He smiled at Holton, and Holton smiled back.

Those who reached there, and not all did. joined heavy force of Spaniards lying there and turned their fire upon the hill they had so recently left. Thus R hail Of lead flew upon and over the heights which the soldiers had taEen. the regulars, Rough Riders. and the white and negro caYalrymen, who had rushed over from Kettle Hill, to hatten themselves in the pits which had been prepared by the enemy.
 To Hoiton, as he lay huddled in trench with a Rough Rider on one side of him and a dead Spaniard on the other, it seemed as though the immo- lation of the entire army must follow an attempt upon the entrenchments before the objective point of the cam paign was attained, and yet such an attack was what he had counted upon. as it would have enabled him. had he escaped the Ieaden storm, to make his way into Santiago.
