were. With word that heavy counter
attack was turning the retreat into an
ungovernable rout, he broke into a
storm, He was not beaten; he could
not be beaten.
Let our guns cut few swaths in
the mob!" he cried. THAT will stop
them from running and bring them
back to sense of duty to their coun-
try"
The irritating litter of the bell in
the closet off the library only increased
his defiance of facts beyond control
He went to the long distance with a
reply to the premier's inquiry ready to
his lips.
We got into the enemy's works but
had to fall back temporarily" he said.
Temporarily! What do you mean?"
demanded the premier.
Il mean that we have only begun to
attack" declared Westerling. He liked
that sentence. 1t sounded like the
shibboleth of great leader in a crisis.
Il shall assault again tomorrow
night"
Then your losses were not heavy?"
mo, not relatively. Tomorrow night
we press home the advantage we
gained tonight"
But YOU have been so confident
each time. You still think that"
That l mean to win! There Is no
stopping halfway"
We'll, Ill still try to hold the situa-
ton here" replied the premier. But
keep me informed"
Dragged by his desperate stubborn
ness, Westerling was believing in his
star again when he returned to the
library. All the greater his success for
being won against skepticism and
fears! He summoned his chiefs of
divisions, who came with the news
that the Browns had taken the very
redoubt from which the head of the
Gray charge had started; but there
they had stopped.
'Of course! OF course they stopped!"
exclaimed Westerling. They are not
mad. A few are not going to threw
themselves against superior numbers

even swifter in sequence than the
flashes that revealed the stark faces.
Dust and stones and flying fragments
of flesh filled the air. Men went down
in positive paralysis of faculties by the
terrific crashes. Sections of the ram
were blown to pieces by the burst of
a shrapnel shoulder high; other Sec
tions were lifted heavenward by q
shell burst in the earth.
Peterkin fell with piece of jagged
steel embedded in his brain. He had
gone from the quick to the dead so
swiftly that he never knew that his
charm had failed. The same explosion
got Fracasse, sword in hand, and an
other buried him where he lay. The
bankers son went little farther; the
BARRIERS son still farther Men who
were alive hardly realized life, so
mixed were life and death. Internal
imagination goes faint; ks widest
SMILES grow feeble and banal before
such a contamination of hell.
But the tide keeps on; the torn gaps
OF the ram are filed by the rushing
legs from the rear Officers urge and
lead. Such are the orders; such is
the duty prescribed; such is human
bravery even in these days when life

mind and body than ever before. Pre-

own panic! Lanstron is not fool.
You'll find the BroWas back in their
old position, working like beavers to
make new defeases in the morning
Meanwhile, well get that mob of ours
into shape and find out what made
them lose their nerve. Tomorrow
night we shall have as many more be-
hind them. We are going to attack
again!"
The staff exchanged glances of
amazement, and Turcas, his dry voice
cracking like parchment, exclaimed:
Attack again? At the same point?"
"Yes-the one place to attack" said
Westerling. The rest of our line has
abundant reserves; q needless num-
Der for anything but the offensive.
Well leave enough to hold and draw
off the rest TO Engadir at once.
But their dirigibles! A surprising
number of them are over our lines"
Bellini, the chief of intelligence, had
the temerity to say.
You will send our planes and dirig-
ibles to bring down theirs!" Wester-
ling commanded.
81 haye-every last one; but they
outnumber us!" persisted BeIlini

his boyish, small face and round head
set close to his shoulders, remained
undisturbedly exact.

rupted Westerling.
But, l repeat. the leak is not neces-
sary to disclose this new movement
that you plan. Their air craft will dis
close it," Bellini concluded. He had
done his duty and had nothing more to
say.
"Dirigibles do not win battles!"

by getting infantry in possession of po-
sitions and holding them. No matter

Westerling. who had buried his face
in his hands in Marta's presence at
the thought of failure, must keep the
pose of his position before the staff.
With chin drawn in and shoulders
squared in a sort of petrified military
habit, he received the feverish news
that grew worse with each brief bulle-
tin. He, the chief of STAFF; he, He'd

be rock in the flood of alarm. When

Still favorable" which was taken at
once to Lanstron, Who was with the
stan chiefs around the big table. They
nodded at the news and smiled to one
another; and some who had been nae
ing sat down and others rose to begin
pacing afresh.
We could have emplaced two lines
OF automatics, one above the otherl"
exclaimed the chief of artillery.
But that would have given too much
Of climb for the infantry in going In
delayed the rush." said Lanstron.
If they should stick-if we couldn't
drive them back" exclaimed the vice
chief of staff.
Il don't think they Wilt" said Ian
stron.
To the others he seemed as cool as
ever. even when his manned hand was
twitching in his pocket. But now, sud-
denly, his eyes starting as at horror,
he trembled passionately, his head
dropping forward, as if he would col
lapse.
"Oh, the murder of 1.-THE murder!"
he breathed.
But they brought it on! Not for
theirs, but for ours!" said the vice
chief of staff, laying his hand on Ian
stron's shoulder.
And we sit here while they go in!"
Lanstron added. There's a kind Of
injustice about that which | can't get
over Not one Of US here has been
under fire!"
Even the minute of the attack they
knew; and just before midnight they
were standing at the window looking
out into the night, while the vice-chief
held his watch in hand In the hush
the faint sound of a dirigibles propel-
Ter high up in the heavens, mufled by
the fog, was drowned by the Gray
guns opening fire.
Before the mine exploded, by the
light of the shell bursts breaking their
vast prisms from central spheres of
fame for miles, with the quick Sc
quence of a moving picture flicker,
Fracasse's men could see one another's
faces, spectral and stiff and pasty
white, with teeth cleaning where Jaws
had dropped, some eyes half closed by
the binding flashes and some opened
wide as If the lids were paralyzed.
Faces and faces! A sea of faces
stretching away down the slope-faces
in trance.
Up over the breastworks, over rocks
and splintered timbers. Peterkin and
the judges son and their comrades
clambered. When they moved they
were as a myriad-legged creature,
brain numbed, without any sensation
except that of rapids going over fall.
Those in front could not falter, being
pushed on by the pressure of those in
the rear. For a few steps they were
under no fire. The scream of their
own shells breaking in Internal pande-
monium in front seemed to be a power
as irresistible as the rear of the wedge
in driving them on.
Then sounds more hideous than the
fight of projectiles broke about them
with the abruptness of lightnings held
in the hollow of the Almighty's hand
and suddenly released The Browns
