General Young, commanded the expedi- tion and was with the regulars, while Colonel Wood directed the operations of the rough riders several miles west. Both parties struck the Speniards at tke same time and the fight lasted’an hour. The Spaniards opened fire from a thicket and brvsh and had every advantage of pumbers and position. But the American troops drove them back from the start, storming the blockhovse arouod which they made a final stand, and sent them scattering over the mountain, The Americans now hold a position at the threshold of Santiago de Cuba with more troops going forward constantly and they are preparing for a final assault upon that city. e+ ABBEY’S Effervescent Salt | 1S A PURE, | simpce sur Lflicacious Tonic, ————_ Sr Witt...

With one of the.best half-mile tracks in the Do~ minion within reach of all citizens whose horses Hre worth developing for speed, it is cause for astonishment that the owoers and drivers of +uch horses should persist in ntilizing the beautiful driveway in front of Gove nment House for this purpose, to the imminent danger of well-behaved citi— zene whd resort thither for legitimate pleasure. It is not enongh that the lives of two unotfendieg young ladiea should have been jeopardized by reckless driving, but it would seem as if human life mest be really sacrificed before a halt is called, Was it for the purpos, of providing a bonlevard fur speeding fast trotting horses that the large expenditure necessary for the consiruction of this roadway was taken from the pockets of ourcitizens? Js there no means by which thi dangerous pastime can beaffectually stopped? Have the citv anthor ities no jurisdiction in the premise? Or if they have, are ther so insensible to the dangers to which “peaceable citizens are daily subjected at the hands of a band of horsemen as to take no steps whatever toenforce law and order on the most beautiful thoroughfare in the city? Sure- ly it will not require the rude awakening of aCoroner’s inquest overthe mangled remains of some horse-trodden victim to open the eyes of the authorities to real- ization of the duties and responsibilities devolving upoa them.
