AND THE sun sHoNE INTO a GREAT HOLE
WHERE FORT PITCHER HAD BEEN
veyed the place where their fort had
been, there was not one of them who had
sufficient command Of himself 10 write a
report Of what had happened They
gaZed at the bare, staring llatnrss of the
shorn bluff. and they looked at each other.
This was not war. 1t was something
supernatural, awfull They were not
frightened; they were oppressed and ap-
palled. But the military discipline of
their minds soon exerted its force, and
brief account of the terrific event was
transmitted to the authorities, and Sergt.
Kilsey was sentenced to a month in the
guard house.
No one approached the vicinity of the
bluff where the fort had stood, for danger
might not be over; but every possible
point of observation within a safe dis
tance was soon crowded with anxious
and terrified observers A feeling of awe
was noticeable everywhere. If people
could have had tangible idea of what
had occurred, it would have been differ
ent. If the sea had ragged; if vast body
of water had been thrown into the air; if
a dense cloud had been suddenly elected
from the surface of the earth, they might
have formed some opinion about it. . But
the instantaneous disappearance Of
great fortification with a little more ap-
preciable accompaniment than the sud-
den tap, as of little hammer upon
thousands of window panes, was some
thing which their intellects could not
grasp. 1t was not to be expected that
the ordinary mind could appreciate the
difference between the action of an in
stantaneous motor when imbedded in
rocks and earth, and its effect, when op-
posed by nothing but stone walls, upon
or near the surface of the earth.
Early the next morning the little feet
of the syndicate prepared to carry out
its further orders. The waters of the
lower bay were now entirely deserted,
craft of every description having taken
refuge in the upper part of the harbor
near and above the city. Therefore as
Soon as it was light enough to make OBJ
servations Repeller No. did not hesitate
to discharge a motor bomb into the
harbor, mile or more above where the
first one had fallen. This was done in
order to explode any torpedoes which
might have been put into position since
