FRANCIS HYllNE.
Uack JTrom Ciibn and Khtnrg the. Itffettt of
Jlaril lighting.
L Francis Ryrno came in last night
from Montauk Point N Y where the
Rough Rider are encamped lie lias
a slight fever today and a very bad
co d but with good care such Jaw on'y
a mothor and sister can give he will
be all right in a few days.
Barring the slight lllncs and the fact
that he is about ton pounds lighter
than when he left here he huB held
ills own. There has beon a continu
ous throng of people all day calling to
see Francis and to compliment him
udou his safe return from the disease
Infested Island of Cuba and the poison
brass tipped bu lets used by the
Spaniards. ' '
The Rough Riders left Florida for
Cuba Juno S2nd and after nearly two
month of hard lighting privations
and harpshlps were order d August
8th uboard of transports for the United
Stites arriving at Montauk l'olut the
night of August 14th and were un-
ljaded the next morning.
Tho day before going aboard the
transport each roan was paid on by
the paymaster and received $31.30
two months' pay as it was not con-
venient to pay reguloily every month.
The only articles of clothing brought
homo by Francis thut wtnt through
the tights were leggtns and his hat
the rest bad to be thrown away.
Everything brought back such a
ammunition bolt leggings and hat
showed the effects of hard usage. He
picked up on the battle Held a knap
sack with the mark of the Red Cros6
which was used by the corps for carry-
ing bandages medicines etc. In. It
is quite a relic. Speaking of relics he
has a breast pin of gold studed with
tourkols and rubles which ho traded
for giving a Cuban girl three hard
tacks. He has one of those deadly
poison fcJpnlhh bnllots tipped with
brass.
The men did away with all the
clothing they possibly oould owing to
tno severe ueat ana the laet that the
Kragg-Jorgansou rills and cartridge
bolt weighs abou !iu pounds. Jus'
before leaving Cuba Franols helped to
earry young Tiffany fr m one hospital
to another.
During one of the battles Francis
and a soldier named Wells were carry
ing i.ieuu t-arr oi iroop u wiio wa
siok. back from the tiring Une when
a bullet from the enemy woundei Carr
(since reported dead) but Francis
thinks this a mistake.
Owing to the weakened condition o
Francis the interview was shortened
if utroiiger he oould tall lots f inter-
acting things about Cuba its people
and the Spaniards. Ho has nothing
but praise for Captain Huston and Ser-
geant Paul Hunter.

The Bora saved a dog which wus
Moating on a piece of wreckage. That
It was un explosion that caused tho
