The shot took a downward course, shatter ing tbo II f tli, sixth, sovcutb and eighth ribs, and penetrating the middle lobo of the right lung, making n cavity in tbo lung in which the doctor could insert his three fingers.

HE WAS PROMOTED FOR GALLANTRY Joseph Beacliam, of Brooklyn, Telli How the Volunteer Artlllerjmon Chased the Bpanlards and Gained Fame and Vic tory by Their Pluck In Battle. Tho thrilling charge mado by tho Astor Battery at Manila is graphically described in a lcttor received by Miss Sallio Beacliain, of this town, from her nephew, who enlisted in that battery at tho outbicak of the war. Ho is a son of Joseph W. Beacliam, of Brooklyn, 11 former resident of this town and who is well and favorably known by many of our citizens. Young licacbaui is now first fccrgcant of the battery, having been promoted fur gallantry in action. Beacliam Is an athlete of natioiuil reputa tion. In 1891, lie rowed on the Cornell fresh man crew, whllo in tbo latter part of his collego career ho took up base ball. In his last year at Cornell, Beacliam received tho highest athletic honors which wcro iu tlio students' power to ofl'er, tbo foot ball and base ball captaincies. Ho was eminently success ful in both, but especially so with the eleven. The letter bo wrote homo from Manila is as follows : Manila P. O., August SI, 1B!M. My Dear Auut : Every minuto that I livo I think is ovcitimo. Wo bavo been iu a light, wcro under firo for eight hours and most of Us escaped unhurt. I liavo bcon in u battle, and I know what it is. When the battle stalled wo wero notified to put our guns in p. jitiun. Wo had to make tbo in- trcncliments under lire, but no 0110 got It. Xo. 1 gun was tho first in position, and they bad a lino place. My gun was the next and last gun of tho Astor Battery to get into position. Wo wcro placed in a very dan gerous place; wo wero put iu front of No. l's intronchmeuts, with practically no protec tion. No. 1 fired right over us, and every tlmo they shot their gun wo had to crouch down. I measured afterward tho height of their shot, and It passed over us just crouch height. Tho lollows on my gun woro not afraid; it didn't seem real to them. I could not realize wo wero in a battlo. Tbo Spaniards soon discovoicd us, and thoy mado it pretty warm I can toll. One shot took two spokes out of my gun, and tho fly ing wood wounded Baker and Snymour of my detachment. Another shot passed just ovor our heads and killed an Astor Batterv man in another detachment. A third shot came and buried us all in sand. This was the last, our gun bad done its work. Wo wcro firing ou a Spanish block houso. Wo had knockod It all to , and after that third shot buried us iu tho sand tbo block house burst Iu llamo and tho Insurgents, for whom wo wero making a placo, piled over uio lnireuciimeut and the Spaniards lied bolter skelter down tho road. I was the first chief of detachment to get a gun ready for a chase, and wo rushed down tbo road after tbo Spaniards. When wo reached the block houso it was all in ruins. We threw our gun by main strongth over tbo moat and up ovor a barricado about six feet high, uud down the road wo flow, yelling and thrilled to the backbone. Tho risks wo took before this tinio were as nothing. Way down this road tbo Spaniards had a beautiful barricade; it was eight feet high and about twelve fcot thick, entirely safe from tlio firo of our bullets. It extended across tbo road and for some distauco on cither side. On the lolt was another block houso, with fivo guns mounted on It. That any of us escaped alive is miraculous. Mind you, I am speaking of ouiy 1110 ngur, wing ot our army, under Gen eral MCAnnur. iKcpt tnogun as near our gallant captain as I possibly could. Well, wo came running down tbo road yell ing. Wo camo up to big stono church which was protecting our infantry that hud bcon re pulsed, aud they woro seeking sholtcr behind the cliurch ami other buildings. Tho road was entirely clear. Wo were within 200 300 yards of the barricado. Tho Spanish bullets woro raining llko ball stones. Mino was tho first gun up there. Wo ouicklv turned our gun around and sent a shot smash ing up that road, and, oh I how tbo infantry did cheer. Wo sent three or four shuts up tho road, aud thon General McArthur called for a nervy officer to lead a charco. Our captain jumped to the frout and the fellows alter mm. 1 got tnrco or tour men ou our gun and put up after them. Wo advanced within 150 yards ot tlio barricado. Bullets came from all directions. Tho Spaniards wero hiding In the houses and wo wero shot at from in front and from tho side. Tbo follow right alongsido of my loft was shot In the right side of tho leg. The bullet just grazed mo. With him out, 0110 othor fellow and I woro all that wero left on tho gnu. Wo deserted tho gun and ran toward the barrl cado with pistols drawn. I did not shoot bo cuuso there wero so many fellows ahead of mo that I was afraid of killing our own men I retreated to tho gun and tried to work it 1 looked up and saw one of our men tho right through tho forehead and dron stono dead only a fow feet from me. we woro tneu ordered under cover, and we ran to tho side of tho road and lay flat on our hollies. Then tbo infantry behind u began to firo and we wero between tho Spanish and American firo. Beforo the firing was over wo resumed our gun, and when firing ceased we rushed down tho road aud into tlio city. Tho Spaniards had all fled and wo were in possession. Hero is llttlo picco of Spanish colore that ono of th boys ripped ou tho way. Tho Astor Battery had tbroo men killed and soven wounded I didn't liavo a scratch. When we reached barracks I volunteered to do anything Lfoutenant Kohlcr, Burclich and I wont back along the road to camp to look up our dcau anu wounuoa. nothing eventlul hap ponou. Tho next day the captain called me into his olllce and asked mo if I would llko to go Into tho Army, and said he was going to roc omniond mo for 11 commission. Ho promoted mo to first sorgcaut and I am now first ser geant. I don't have a detachment any more, but I am ahead of all tbo sergeants. I tako charge of all the details of tho battery, run the camp, attend to the cook houso ami keep tho battery in shape. I have a clerk to holp mo out with all the battery papers. I have one or loose nig tents 10 myseit, Thoro wore five promotions mado iu the battery as tbo order statos, "for gallantry in action." I got the best, and four out of tho five woro mado from tho detachment I com manded. I am very busy now and don't get much time to write, hut theie Is a whole lot to tell about. Good by, JOSEI'U W.

Ono of tho prottlost foot races seen in this part of tho coal region for many years was run at Mahanoy City park yesterday after noon between C. C. II. Klrlin, of town, and Michaol Salmon, of tbo former place. The race had been a topic for a month past and tho outcomo was awaited with much interest. Tho backers of tho respective men woro con fident of victory up to tho moment the winning lino was crossed, but tho Salmon pooplo had tbo most money and thoy offered odds as high as 10 to 1 before the men got off. Tho betting was not brisk, but considerable nion.y changed bauds. Tho raco was a SO yard dash for 100 a Bide. James Smith, of town, was tho roforco anil Mr. Turnor, of Philadelphia, tbo pistol fircr. Tho racers and their trainers woro 011 tlio grounds at 3:30 o'clock nnd each took a trial spin. Promptly at 4:15 o'clock tho men toed tlio scratch and soon after Turner started them. Thoy got ofr well, Klrlin being slightly in tbo lead. Salmon caught up with him, but Klrlin was again slightly abend at tbo thirty-yard lino. At forty yards, how ovor, tho men woro oven and by a sudden spurt Salmon jumped ahead and crossed tho tape lino two feet ahoad. Kirlin's backers woro disappointed in tlio raco, but not iu their runner. Thoy claim tho result was duo to Salmon's suporior con dition. Ho bus been training and racing all summer, while Klrlin was ouly trained for about three weeks. It is not likely that the men will come together again, at least not tills season.

Feathers from tho tail of the Argus pheas ant are the most prominent in trimming of hats. Golden brown feathers with their im numcrablo eyes are wonderfully becoming, and aro bound to meet with favor among the most fashionablo women universally. The popularity of tho Argus feather in trimming revives the ancient Greek legend of tho giant Argus from which the feathers derived their uamo. This giaut, it 13 said, possessed ono hundred eyos, of which only two slopt at ono time. This was continued in pairs succession. It was tho duty of this giant to keep guard over a beautiful woman who was transformed into a heifer by Juuo as a motive for revenge for favors displayed toward Jupiter. Finally this many-eyed giant was slain liy Mercury after which Juuo ordered tho eyes to be set in the tail of the Argus pheasant and to this very day this bird is re garded as beiug tho self-appointed guardian of unhappy wives. This superstition mado it a sacred bird among the Greeks aud the feathers from the tail are still believed to bring happiness und prosperity to all who wear them. A fino collection of this feather and also a mounted pheasant wero shown a Herald representative at tho Bon Ton millinery parlors, together with a large assortment of other birds and fancy feathers at remarkably low prices. A credit bestowed upon tho B011 Ton millinery, is that they do not carry two bats of a similar design, and furthermore thoy are trimmed by clever milliners. Mrs. Fcldser will make and trim the customer any hat she may desire in 35 minutes.
