CACTUS CATTLE GUARD
 ATTRACTS ATTENTION
Plan Tried on Arizona Eastern Is Subject of Comment in Two
 Magazines

The cactus cattle guards construct ed by Arthur Moeller, Arizona East crn section foreman at Fort Thomas have suddenly become famous by means of a photograph and article published in the Railway Gazette oi Chicago. The same photograph and de escliption is reproduced in the Lit erary Digest of this week and the account of the utilization of the cac- tus as cattle guard is as follows:
 The first one of these guards was put in service about six months ago. and it is said that no animal has ever crossed it or shown the slight est desire to investigate it, it consists simply of a bed of a small cactus that grows abundantly along that portion of the line and with whose thorns horses and cattle are thoroughly familiar. It is said that horses will shy from a patch of this cactus as they would from a rattle snake. The bed is made, as the ac- Companying photograph indicates, of tWo-by six inch timbers faced on edge. In the bottom of the box so formed is placed a few inches of sand and gravel, in which the cac- tus is planted. This variety of cac- tus is said to be very long lived, and as the material grows in abun dance near by. it is not difficult to renew it if necessary As the thorns will pierce an ordinary boot or shoe Il is necessary to place a piece Of timber along the bottom bar of the fence of the guard to allow em- lloVeS to cross"

sive than our own colored popu-
lation as a rule. probably the re-
suit of most of the older ones
having served In the Ten Years
war. And then, too, they had
lived a more outdoor life than
the majority of the negroes of
our northern states, being planta-
ton hands and small farmers,
and had not been weakened and
demoralized by city life.
African Natives.
A surprising fact was that not
few of the older negroes of
Cuba were born in Africa. AL
though the foreign slave trade
was abolished by law many years
ago, it is matter of common
knowledge that up 10 as late as
1870 small cargoes of slaves from
the west coast of Africa were run
into Cuba. These African soldiers
often conversed among themselves
in their native dialect.
After few days in camp to
allow the men and horses of both
forces to rest, the three thousand
of us marched toward doomed
Guaimaro, and drew our lines
about the town. The combined
forces were under the command
of General Gomez, he being the
insurgent commander in :. chief.
General Garcia had with him two
guns, a Hotchkiss twelve-pounder
and a two-pounder of the same
make, they being identical with
the two guns that Gomez had
used at Cascorra, and that we had
brought with us. So we now had
four pieces of artillery.
Spaniards Have 800.
The Spanish garrison, about
300 men of the Second battalion
of Tarragona, WAS commanded by
a major and was distributed
among eleven defensive positions,
mostly large two-story block
houses, called fortunes, though
the strongest positions were the
brick church with stone tower
and the barracks. the former in
the south part of the town and
the latter at it's southwest corner.
All of these had earth banked up
around them to the lower tier of
Portfolios and were surrounded
by barb-wire entanglements. All
except the church we're also sur
rounded by standing trenches.
The key to the situation was
the Forth Gonfu, an isolated
blockhouse on a low hill due
north of the center of the town
sand seven hundred yards from
THE circle of blockhouses sur
1t. The nearest support
was the Forth Isabella. Once
established in the Gonfu block
house, the Cubans would COM
pletely dominate the town, which
lay in easy artillery range on the
level ground to the southwark.
Band Plays.
On the night of October 16
Gomez and Garcia with their
staffs and personal escorts were
encamped about a mile to the
north of the Gonfu position, and
we Americans with our four guns
were near them. / had been COM
