Btrcet, close to the house where tho
prosecutrix lives. During the night ho
pried open tho window of her bedroom
nnd, entering tho apartment with
drawn revolver In hand, threatened to
kill her unless sho submitted to him.
Not daunted, she grappled with him
and screamed, and he lied through the
open window. Her screams brought
tho people who were attending the
party to her rescue, but they were un
able to locate Casaluskey.
He has since succeeded In evading
the ofllccrs, although frequent visits to

SANG "OUR COUNTRY".
A Thrilling Scene in the Field Hos
pital at Guasimas.
From "A Wounded Correspondent's Rec
ollections ot Guasimas. ' by Edwuid
Marshall. In tho September Scilbner's
There Is one Incident of the day
which flhines out In my memory above
all others now as I lie in a New Yoik
hospital writing It occurred at the
field hospital. About a dozen of us
were lying there. A continual choius
of moans rose tluough the ttee
branches ovethead. Tho surgeons,
with hands nnd bared aims dripping
and clothes literally sutuiated, with
blood, wero straining overy nerve to
prepare the wounded for the Journey
down to Slboney. Behind me lay
Captain McCllntock with his lower
leg-bones literally ground to powder.
He bore the pain as gallantly as he
had led his men, and that Is saying
much. I think Major Rrodie won also
there. It was a doleful group. Am
putation and death stated Its mem
bers In their gloomy faces.
Suddenly a voice started boftly,
"My countiy, 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Ot thee I sing"
' Other voices took It up:
"Land where my fathers died.
Land of the Pilgrim's pride "
The quivering, quavering chorus,
punctuated by groans, and made spas
modic by pain, trembled up from that
little group of wounded Americans in
the midst of the Cuban solitude the
pluckiest, most heartfelt song that
human beings ever sang
There was ono voice that did not
quite keep up with the otheio. It was
ho weak that I did not heur It until all
the rett had finished with tho line,
'Let Freedom Tin"
Then halting, struggling, faint, It e
peated slowly,
"Land of-the Pilgrim's pride,
Let Freedom"
The last word wus a woeful cry.
One moro eon had died as died the
fathers,
