MANILA, Gept. 21..—An orderly stood in the middle of the road pulling with both hands on the bridle of a stubborn little mative pony that reared and plunged and tried to jump away from the strange noise that went shrieking and whistling by his ears. The horse dragged the struggling orderly further away into the pitchy darkness, | until, although they were only 16 or 20 feet | from the little patch of light that fell into the road from the. window of a house, noth- ing of them could be seen. “Stand still, d—n you,"’ said the orderly’s voice in the darkness. ‘Stan’ still ‘fore I kick your foo! head off.” There was the sound of some one coming Gown the steps of the house, and a little | @an, clankin big spurs, ran .past and stood in the circle of light in the road. He Was pulling on a brown kahki coat as he waited. while the orderly dragged the un- willing horse over to him. The 7 fell full on the little man’s gray hair. e jerked the horse away from the eg and vauited lightly into the saddle. more horsemen rode up to his side. A @hot sung in the air overhead. The orderly gucked his head, and then straightened up. “Lie close,"’ he said. The little man on horseback went clatter- ss (' iam the thing b { was e aptisam of war for Gen. Joe Wheeler.

Wheeler was in command of a brigade and in the saddle under a heavy fire within two weeks of his arrival! in the Philippines. This is good, considering that there are many people in the walled city of Manila who have been there a full year and have not yet been under fire. Gen. Wheeler id he would not join the “coffee coolers." e did not have much of @n excuse to give, except that he did not like stiff-starched suits. The collars made his neck sore. So, in the army vernacular, he ‘“‘piked out.”’ I was at the train the morning he left town. He looked as full of life as a schoolboy, and swung himself up in the car with one jump. “There goes old Joe,” said an officer. “He's the same oki Joe—always looking for trouble.”’ I followed “the General tn a few days. He was so hard to locate that I almost reached the conclusion that he had grabbed up a regiment somewhere and started off into the insurgent country to see what the insurrectionists would do if they were kopt moving two days in succession. t San Fernando I was told the General had gone to Angeles, our extreme northern int on the railroad. I followed, only to nd that he had mysteriously departed the evening before. I rode over to Bacalor. This is where Col.
