Hero Of the Phi ippines Who Car
ries Ten Mauser Bullets in
His Body is Retired.
tBy Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON. y. c., Oct. ST.
Lieutenant Emory Winship, attached to
the flagship Iowa. has been condemned
matism and transferred to the British
hospital at Montevidco.
There is a most remarkable story be-
5hlnd this oftlceriS prosalc Illness. He
was one of the heroes of the naval
campa gn IN the philippines. and Was
advanced several numbers in his grade
tor distinguished conduct in action be-
fore the enemy. as a result of which
service he now carries five Alauser bui-
lats in his body, three In his right leg
one in his left leg and one in his left
hip. These wounds were received while
he was operating a Colts automatic
gun on a small steam launch endeavor
ing to protect the landing of a body of
men from his snip. the gunboat Bennins-
ton.
rhe party was attacked by overwhelm-
ing numbers of F'il,pinos and would
undoubtedly have been entirely routed
but for the acton Of Lieutenant Win
ship in taking personal charge of the
automatic gun in the bow of the launch
and pouring such a deadly volley into
the natives that th-y We're compelled
to retreat and permit the landing. While
thus engaged Lieutenant Wlnship was
the target Of the attacking party and
was struck five times, but luckily noue
Of the bullets reached vital spot. The
surgeons were never able to remove the
bullets, but the wounds healed perfectly
in course of time and have not iner-.
tered with the officers regular duties
aboard ship.
1t seems like the irony Of fate that
after SURVIVING his numerous wounds
he should be lncapac1tated by so ordi-
nary q disease as rheumatism. 1t is be-
lieved that his disability is only tenn
pora:y and that he will be able to re-
sums MS duties on the Iowa by the time
she starts to take part In the manoeuyret
in the Caribbean Sea.
