Special from Newport News
says; The transport Hudson ar
rived from Santiago iu Hamp

From rhe foremost mast floated
a yellow flag, indicating sick
ness aboard. Dr. Pettm, the
national quarantine officer,
boarded the vessel as soon as
she cist anchor. He remained
on board the vessel some time
and when he came ashore it
was learned that he dici not feel
justified in permitting those on
board to laud. The Hudson is,
understood, to carry a number of
sick and wounded soldiers from
Santiago. The bodies of Cap

route north for interment. It is
said that Sylvester Scovel, the

A Santiago Incident.
Private Daniel Davis, of the
Sixth United States infantry
and a participant iu the fighting
before Santiago, relates this
instance of the cool daring of a
member of his regiment:
"I was lying in one of the
trenches," he saidj. "About eight
feettomyleft was the French
military attache, occupying a
somewhat exposed position. Be
tween the military attache and
me was a member of my com
pany. Disdaining to lie down
and hungry for a smoke, he
reached into his pocket and
took out a clay pipe and some
tobacco He had just lighted the
pipe aud taken a few whiffs
when a Mauser bullet clipped
the stem close to his mouth.
Lookiug down and seeing that
the bowl was not broken and
that sufficient oi the stem re
mained to afford a purchase for
his lips, he picked up the pipe,
tfilled it with tobacco again, lit
it and calmly proceeded to
smoke. The French officer's
eyes gleamed with admiration as
he exclaimed:
"What stuff are you Americans
made of anyway?"
We are glad to say that those
who hav been very sick in our
place, are'now convalescent.
