half way out of the hole when Jap

houlder and signed for him to stop

tras had been discharged.
I shall not soon forget the look on
that pock-marked face. There was
no emotion there, nothing but mild
curiosity as the Russian looked into
the cannon-iike mouths of the CAM
eras. The eyes were open wide and
were staring and in them one could
read the thoughts Of the stolid brain
behind them. II ever man expected

But he wasn't killed. He was pas
sed down into the trench and another
was called out. This man was a hos
pital corpsman and wore the red
cross on his sleeve. He did not look
to right or left. but at once reached
down to help out a comrade. The
third mans head was covered with
bloody bandages and he was evidently
badly wounded. He staggered as
he came out Of the hole. and leaned
heavily on his comrade for support.
Two others, also wounded, followed,
and then another red cross man. The
Japanese were gentle with them, even
when they were stopping them one
after another to give the anxious
correspondents and their cameras Q
chance. After the men were all out
they were lined up and final rattle
OF camera shutters ended the play, 80
far as we were concerned.
The wounded Russians were at once
removed to the nearest field hospital,
where they were given the very best
of care. The unwounded are being
taken to the rear as prisoners Of war.

THE STORY OF LAO YANG

, interest because it explains why the
Japanese need all their bravery. The
courage of the japanese soldier has
been proven beyond all question in
this war and this same Japanese SOL
der would be the last person in the
world to deny the same quality to
his enemy.
We saw the final act Of the story
this afternoon, the first act occurred
yesterday. I have told how. after a
most desperate charge. the Japanese
drove the Russians out Of the trench
at the point of Scrub hill and occu-
pied It themselves after a charge In
the face Of rifle and shrapnel fire that
cut great gaps in their ranks. The
Russians, it was believed, were all
driven out Of the trench. But this
was not the case. Hardly had the
Japanese settled themselves in the
trench before there was a crack from
rifle in one end of 1t and a Japanese
soldier fell dead. This was followed
by another and another shot and sew
eral Japanese died before it was dis
covered where the shots came from.
In q Miniature Fortress.
Finally 1t was found there was a
hole, the entrance to what had evil
IDENTIFY been an ammunition magazine
1t was from this hole the shots had
been fired. Careful investigation
showed that several Russian soldiers
had taken refuge there They were
called upon to surrender, but refused
to do so and answered all further de-
mands with shots. The Japanese
, could not reach the Russians in the
hole without exposing themselves to
certain death before they could fire,
and after several unavailing attempts
to make the Russians evacuate their
position. they simply covered the
mouth Of the hole with bags of sand
from the breastworks and left the
Russians to think the matter over.
This morning two officers who spoke
Russian had the bags taken away and
again called on the Russians to sur
render The result was that one Of
the officers was killed and the other
wounded.
1
1t was shortly after noon yesterday
when the Japanese took the trench.
1t was o'clock this afternoon when
the correspondents, making a tour of
| inspection of the hills, arrived at the
spot. We were told that We were
just in time to see something Pc
culiar. One of the officers explained
to us about the Russians who md
been in the hole for 81 hours and said
that they had just expressed to an
interpreter a willingness to give
themselves up.

Is She Morally GuiItv7

Perhaps you may say this story properly belongs to the
news columns Possibly But the story raises
ons that cannot properly be discussed in way and
the question cannot be raised by telling the story
The first chapter opens in little Italian village near
Naples There is sweet, modest girl named Rosa Two
young men, James DPietroa rather fral young fellow
with big heart-and Michael Rigo-a big fellow but
shftless rivals for the hand of the girl DPietro is
loving and constant while Rgo Jealous unforgvng and
passionate. DPietro wins and marres Rosa. When the
neighbors to the wedding to make merry Rigo will
not come In jealous rage he marres another girl of the
village.
Di Pietro and his young wife come to New York He
works hard and Rosa is good wife. Three children
born to them. Two of them die and the parents drawn
still closer together When other men, after the
of comparots drop into the home while the husband at
work and say "Come Rosa, get the chant and let
have god time she says, 81 have work to do. Wait till
my husband home and then will have chianti if
he says sou 1t plain that she loves only her husband
And the two with little Catharna sit at night and plan
how little Catharna will day go to school in of
the big school buildings.
Enter Rgo After few years he deserts his wife and
children and to New York. He every vile to

to tell her husband lest Rgo in his great strength might
kill him. Finally she tells her husband and begs him to

Rigo follows. He hires room next door. Again
and again they move. Rigo follows. The last time he

is desperate Then the husband gives the wife revolver
to protect herself.
One day last week this Rigo to Rosa's and
locked the door behind him. He held his big tailor s
shears threateningly. The the brute would
stop at nothing AS he advanced she shot him dead She
arrested and TAKEN with little Catharna in her arms
to the prison where she locked up the charge of
murder.
Now. The telling of this story is for the purpose of
asking these questions: Did Rosa Di Piero murder this

Michael Rigoa Ought she to be punished for committing
this act act she does not deny and which she
done to protect her woman's honor7
Did this woman or did she not, do what any woman
who holds her honor above her life would do under like

The name of ''Shaftesbury," givel.

the housing question, reminds cor

many years ago he heard the great
hearted Earl speak upon the subject

that until the habits of the people
could be altered there would always
be slums; and he supposed state of

been removed, while the drink traffic
and drinking habits remained. In a
year or less, he continued, there
would be the slums again, as bad as
ever.
Lord Shaftesbury used to tell true
story in this connection. He had
looked in at poor dwelling, and
had been shocked to see it so very
dirty. If, he thought, the place were
once made clean, perhaps the occu-
pants would try to keep it so. He,
therefore, asked permission of the
tenant to have, the room nicely done
up. Leave was given, and the work
was executed, ceiling and walls being
left a spotless white. About a week
| afterwards Lord Shaftesbury was
passing, and was amazed to see the
walls blacker than they had been be-
fore. He expressed his surprise that
so much dirt could have come upon
! them in the time, and the tenant, a
good-humored Irishman, explained
lo

kindness. but the place had such a

grew in size, if not in beauty. Her
hull was divided into eight compart-
ments, and these were sheathed and
made as alright as possible. On
top of them they built 24-foot cabin
with a storeroom and some rude
hunks. From opposite ends of the
cabin arose two short masts. At
night they worked on the sails, and
finally produced two triangular ones,
sewed together from the window
awnings which had been found in the
bungalow. These were rugged lateen
wise, with n long yard fashioned
from bamboo pole. 1t was decided
to abandon the lookout on the rock,
and to concentrate the entire work
ing force on the boat. \ long oar
was pivoted at the rear to serve as
rudder, and an extra one was made
for use in ease of accident. On the
bow they constructed a clumsy but
strong windlass, as a capstan to lift
the anchor. A 500-pound rock of ir-
regular, Jagged formation, was pro-
vided as an anchor. Mr.. Kent sug-
gested the use of the gold images
for this purpose, but was greeted

The yawl was pushed into the water
and loaded with as much of the
freight as could safely be carried.
The remaining boxes were placed on
the raft. The beach being clear-the
tide was at its ebb- Mr.. Haven and
Mr.. Morton walked along the cliffs
and back to camp. Sidney rowed the
yawl and Vincent took charge of the
raft. Aided by favofing breeze, he
made good time. The boxes were de-
posted on the deck of THE Jump
ing Jupiter" and opened There was
lively curiosity concerning their con-
tents. The first box yielded several
hundred pounds of choice cuts of
steak, and roasts of beef. The second
one contained an assortment of legs
of lamb and other fresh meats. These
were at once taken to the storehouse.
The meat was in excellent condition
and would keep fresh for many days.
There were crates filled with vege-
tables. lettuce. strawberries, radishes,
and all the garden luXuries of that
season of the year. 1t was tempt
ing array, and L. Sylvester Vincent
was in his glory. Then there were
cases of champagne, box filled with
pickles, table sauces, oils, etc. There
was supply of fresh meat and vege-
tables sufficient to last week or ten
days, even if the castaways used
nothing from the boundless resources
of the island
"A sirloin steak will taste. good
again." said Mr.. Kent as he ham,
mered the top from the last box. He
displayed to view top layer of the
latest magazines. Then he found a
number of new books and varied as
sortment of May publications. In the
bottom of the box were copies of
newspapers. There was a rush for
these papers.
There were copies of the New
York papers dated from May I'd to
May 18th, also copies of New Or
leans papers as late as May 18th. In
addition to these were copies of Chi
cago and Philadelphia papers from
the time of their departure from New
York up to dates comparatively re-
cent.
Gentlemen" said Mr.. Rockwell,
after ten minutes had elapsed, 1--WE
have read enough to indicate that
none of our families has suffered
from death or serious illness up to
the time these papers were printed.
We can postpone a study of less i'm
portant matters until our mornings
work is done. Let us proceed to our
task and do our reading later"
This suggestion was agreed to-, and
Vincent carried the precious box to
the bungalow. The news from the
great outside world from which
they were separated acted as slim
illus to their energies. 1t was. near
ly II o'clock before Mr.. Carmody
gave the signal to cease, and they re-
turned to the big dining room, where
a tempting dinner awaited them.
