At 7.80 ago. General Young gave tb
command to the men at the Hotchkiss
guns to open lire. That command was the
signal for a fight that, for Stubbornness,
hae seldom been equalled. The instant
the Hotchkiss guns were tired, front the
hillside commanding the road came valley
after volley from the Mausers of ehe
Spaniavis. "Don't shoot until you tice
someehing to shoot at!" yelled General
Young, and the men oboyea the order.

Over there the American losses were
the greatest. Col. Wood's mon, with an
advance guard well out in front, and two
Cuban guides before them, but apparent-
ly with no liankers, wont squarely into
the trap set for thetn by the Spaniards,
and only the unfaltering courage of the
men prevented wbat might easily have
been a disaster. As it was, Troop L, the
advance guard, under the unfortunate
Captain Capron, was almost surrounded,
and, but for the reinforcements hurriedly
tient forward, every man would probably
have been killed or woended.
Rooseveit'm Story.
"There must have been nearly 1,500
Spaniards in feont and on the side of os,"
said Lieut. -Col. Roosevelt to-dity, when
disoussing the fight "They held the
ridges with rifle pits and maohine guns
and had a body of men in =bosh In the
thick jungle at the sides of the road over
which we were advancing. Our advance
guard struek the men in ambush and
drove them out. But they lost Captain
Capron, Lieut. Thomas and about fifteen
men killed or wounded.
"The Spanish firing was accurate; so
accurate, indeed, that 15 surprised ine,
and their firing was fearfully heavy."
When the firing began, Lieut. -Col.
Roosevelt took the right wing, with the
Troops 0 and K, under Llaptains Llew-
ellyn and Jenkins, and moved to the sup-
port of Capt. Capron. 4.5 the same time
tml. Wood and Major Brodie took the
left wing and advanced in open order on
the Spanish right wing. Major Brodie
was wounded before the troops had ad-
vanced 100 yards. Col. Wood then took
the right wing and shifted Col. Roosevelt
to the left.
A Gallant Charge.
In the meantime the fire of the Spani-
ards had increased in volume, but. not-
withstanding this, an order for a general
charge was given, and the men sprang
forward. Col. Boosevelt led the advance.
On the right wing Capt. MoClintook
suffered a fracture of the leg from a
machine gun ball, while four of his men
went down. At the same time Capt.
Luna of Troop F lost one of his men.
Then the reserves; Troops It and E, were
ordered up. Col. Wood, with the right
wing, charged straight at the blookhonse
.800 yards away, and Col.. Roosevelt, on
the left, uharged at tie same time, The
men did not stop to rettun She fire of the
Spaniards, but advanced with a deter-
mination to capture the blockhouse. W ben
within 500 yards of the coveted polet, the
8paniards broke and ran.
Hamilton IGIsh the First to Fall.
,Sergeant Hamilton Fish, jr. was the
first man to fall. He was shot througb
the heart, and died instantly. The Spani-
ards were not more than one hundred
yards off, bob wig occasional glimpses of
them could be seen, The man continued
to pour volley after volley into the brush
In the direction of tbe sowed of Spanish
shots, but the latter became neon fre-
quent and seemed to be getting near.
Death of Captain Capron. .
Capt. Capron stood behind his men,
revolver in hand, using it whenever a
Spaniard exposed hinisele His aim was
sure and two of the enemy were seen to
tall under his firejust as he was pre-
paring to take aziotber shot and shouting
to his men at the same time, his revolver
dropped front his grasp, and he fell to

members of the defunct order of Select
Knights over 1,100 will contest the efforts
of the receiver'Mr. B. J. Leubsdorf, to

months after they ceased to meet the
levies made upon them. The defendants
have consolidated their oases into one test
case issue, wbioh will soon be heard in
the Court of Appeal.
The olaim of the receiver is based upon
the fact that a member in default is al-

BUTTERFLY FISH.
The Most Gorgeous of .All the Inhabit-
ants of the Sea.
Of all the inhabitants of the sea the but-
terfly fish is the most gorgeous. The gen-
eral body color is a pearly gray, notably
delicate and iridescent. A glistening jet
black band runs around the head, tbrough
the eyes and terminates at the lower mar-
gins of the gill openings. Above the eyes
BUTTERFLY FISH.
this band' is bordered on each side by a
narrow pale streak that looks luminous by
contrast. Another dark band, but more
delicate in color than the first, runs around
the body at the middle part of the fish,
like a belt.
Two shining dark blue spots, like the
"eyes" In a peacock's tail, mark the an-
terior part of the dorsal fin and the tail.
These spots are surrounded by pure white
rims, and the background is dark velvety
brown. The head is greenish yellow, and
the fins are marked with fleeting tints of
yellow, silver and brown. They are but-
terfly fish, indeed.
Motor Vehicles.
Motor vehicles are evidently bound to
tome into more general use in this coun-
try. It is dear, however, that carriages of
the kind in order to be practically service-
able otamot be made to sell at the prices oC
horse drawn vehicles, and that the highest
type of automobiles will be used mainly
by people who can afford luxuriee. It is
probable that the story of horseless trac-
tion will, in a sense, repeat the histoiy of
bicycling, which made small headway
during the first few years following its in-
kroduction.
Weight A4ente Unpopular.

Every Member but One 1Vfet Death In the
Etarbor of Havana.
Eery member of the battleship Maine's
famous baseball nine was killed. in the
Havana harbor disaster except John
Bloomer, a Portland (Me.) boy, who is
now aboard the Montgomery.
Soule of the wounded survivors of the
ill fated warship speak itt glowing terms
of the team's former prowess and believe
that some of the crack nines of the big
league would have had to hustle in a con-
test with the sailor teddies who have made
their last home run.
Chaplain Chidwick was the organizer of
the team, and much of its success was due
to his effort and enthusiasm. At almost
every home port at which the Maine stop-
ped games were played with teams com-
posed generally of local marines or sailors
from other warships, and so great a per-
centage of viotories was oredited to the
Maine men that they were heralded as the
champions et the navy.

team, were the last to lower their colors to

Lord told Solomon of the division of the

to kill Jeroboam, but he lied to Egypt
and was there till Solomon -died (chapter

2L "And when Rohoboam wits come to
Jerusalem he assembled all the house 01
Judah with the tribe of Benjamin, an
hundred and fourscore thousand ehosen
Men." In 11 (Aron. xi, 1, it is odd that
this army was from Judah and Benjamin,
and hi both passages it says that the object
was to bring the kingdom meant to Rehm
boon. This, howeaer, was not God's way,
and therefore the army was in a sense a
vain array of power. Wo read of another
king who hired 100,000 mighty men and
paid them a hundred talents of silver,
but was not allowed to use them, for they
were not in God's plan.

is a good moseage for every man and wom-
an of God (Jet =Hi, 28). The next chap-
ter (I Kings xiii) is in some respects the
greatest "Man of God" chapter be the Bi-
ble, for in it the title is used not less than
14 times, and it teaches us that if we turn
from what God says to listen even to an
angel bearing a contrary message we may
be set aside as witnesses. Compare Gal. 1, 8.
28. "Speak unto Rehoboam, the son el
Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all the
house of Judah and Beneamin, and to the
remnant of the people." The messages of
God are plain, and those for whom they
are intended are clearly designated (Dent.
xxvii, 8; Bah. ii, 2). See also Hag. ii, 4,
and rote carefully the beginnings of al/
the epistles; note also in the utterances of
our Lord Jesus Christ the persons to -whom
He is speaking, and you will see among
other things that the much niisquoted
words "The kingdom of God is within
you" (Luke xvii, 20, 21) were never said
to disciples, but to murderous Pharisees
tbirsting for His blood, and we must there-
fore take them as in the margin or the R.
V'. rather than as in our A. V. text.
24. "Thus with the Lord, Ye shall not
go up, nor fight beamet y our brethren the
children of Israel. Return every man to
his house; for this thing is from Me."
They hearkened and obeyed and did well
in so doing, for obedience always brings
blessing (Isa. i, 19). Man's goings are of
tho Lord; how can a man then understand
his own way. 0 Lord, I know the way of
man is not in himself; it is tot in man
that walketh to direot his steps. A man's
heart deviseth his way, but the Lord di-
reoteth his steps (jer. x, 28; Prov. xvi, 9;
xx, 24). When Laban pursued Jacob with
evil intent, the Lord appeared to him and
stopped his evil purposes. Even satan had
to confess that God had a hedge about Job
through which he could not pass. Surely
We will be quiet ff we believe Rom. viii,
28, 82, and Ps. xxxii,
26. "'Ilion Jerobohni built ,Shechens 50
Mount Ephraim and dwelt therein, and
went out from thence and built Penuel."
Sliecheni means "thoulcier" and suggests
Deut. xxxiii, 12, and Ise. ix, ti, 7, and
pen nel means "the lace of God, ' ' but Jero-
boam knew neither the one nor the other,
for he tamed away from the face of God
and Oat that be must manage things if
they were to go right, according to his
VieWS. The very next verse shows that he
did not believe God, and therefore he could
!lot be established. See II Ohron. xx, 20,
