Ran Gantlet of Fire

From Private j. Tonoe, Hampshire
Regiment, to his colleagues in Wool
totoh business house:
We thought we were IN for oud last
march the other evening When going
through village which had been reported
clear, at about II o'clock, they opened
hre from both sides or the street with
Maxim guns and rifles, and from two
guns at the top OF the street We were
the leading company. Our casualties were
Is wounded and none very seriously.
But think we frightened them by
running close to the houses. They evil
IDENTIFY thought there were more of us
than there were. The following day we
got field gun, and with one shot killed
two and wounded 10, as well as blowing
their barricade and machine guns to bits.
While it lasted the previous evening
IL was like hell let loose / lodged be-
OF taking aim when ahohIt six shots went
past my eyes; so got a bit further back
for second. Then / tried to see where
every one else was, and they were retiring
down the road i got a shower of shots
at my feet like a lot of jumping crackers,
and tell You 1 had no idea 1 could jump
so high, and think 1t was an act Of God
that ] was not hit.
The following morning the village
baker gave us the bread that the Germans
had demanded for themselves. They are
still waiting. for It.
I afterward went out on an observation
post, where at a farm they were only toe
pleased 10 see us, making coffee and
making us have something to eat; and
they will not take anything for II. The
Germans had previously been there and
drunk all their wine, etc They are fond
of throwing everything outside the house
when they leave, but they had no time
for that as we were hard after them.

John Frenoh's dispatch, torites:
Now that we have been reinforced we
are giving the Germans something very
hot. 1t is big gun fire from morning
until night, then II is one mass of rife
firing. and IL makes one turn to ice when
daylight comes to see the sights that meet
the eye. II is absolutely murder itself.

been recommended for the French dis
tinguished service medal for saving the

EDDIE FOSTER TO PLAY
AGAINST HEROES REDS
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY
Young Cuban 0utfeIder viii Leave Tonight To Be Used in
Case of Emergency in Redand-PossbIity OF ShankS
Being Pulled Into Infed and Acosta Going to Left.
BY THOMAS KIRBY.

Ed Fosters lacerated toe had suffi-
emily recovered today to justify the be-
lief that he will be able to play to-
morrow in Cincinnati. so neither Her
man Schaefer nor Joe Gedeon. who
have been understanding to the regular
during his enforced absence, will take
The short trip to Ohio.
Griffith will take fifteen men TO the
scene of his former managerial endeav-
ors, in addition to the regulars the
men who will be taken along will he
Henry, Ainsmith, ACosta, Altrock,
Johnson. Boehling. Engel and Shaw. The
start is made at $40 this evening and
the squad will be back Monday at noon.
In case Foster should be unduly
troubled by the gashed member, How
ard Shanks will be sent in to third and
Acosta sent out to left Shanks has
had plenty of practice in the infiefd.
and should ht in acceptably. although
Griffith had hoped to put the strongest
sort of a team in the field. No matter
now matters develop the club will be
greatly weakened on the exhibition date
that Griffith would have them the
strongest, as Mcbride will not even
be taken along, while Foster will be
a cripple.
In collaboration with Captain Nc
Bride, Mgr Schaefer today officially
promulgated his lineup of the Nation
a'cttes for their game with Newark to-
morrow The recruits will start as fol-
lows: Paul Smith, left field; Spencer,
center field Meusel. first base: Schae-
fer. second base: 4. Williams. catcher:
Gedeon shortstop: Lee, third base;
Bentley, right field. and Cashion,
Schwartie. Mumford, and r. Williams.
pitchers.
The new '.unes' were dealt out today
i,y Charley King. As soon as Cutie
CarviIle Chevrolet Morgan had his fads
and fancies gratified all the others eX-
pressed satisfaction. although a few
minor alterations must be made.
Ed Bang, of the Cleveland News
fnan whom there are few more obseTv-
ant writer's of baseball, pays the follow
ing high compliment: The Nationals
know baseball and play it for all il is
worth. They have the hit-and-run down
better than any other team in the
league. and when il comes TO speed
ihev are right up in the front ranks
Griffith's boys aren't whales as hiters,
hut they don't have to have SO many
base hits concealed about their persons
when johnson is pitching, for if they
give him a run or two they are almost
certain to be returned the victors."
Coming from a team so profoundly
disappointed through the activities Of
the GTiffmen as was Cleveland last fall
his. indeed, is fulsome appreciation.
While not as scintillating as the work
OF Doc Ayres against Brooklyn, Harper
The Washington times., 1914-04-03

pitched great bail aginst the Newark
Internationals yesterday. In the Sec
ond inning a vicious drive by w. Zim-
norman. over Milans head, netted a
triple and resulted in a run after a
sacrifice fly, but that was the only time
the lefthsnder was in trouble.
1t was no day for baseball. The air
was frappe and whirling wind not
only made the fight of the ball as
changeable as a debutante's calendar,
but made perfect pitching an impos-
sibility. Harper weathered the gale iu
great shape. however, striking out
eight and allowing but a brace of hits
in the five innings he was stood on the
bIast-swept hillet.
His performance yesterday placed an
other rivet in the link by which Harper
is Strengthening his hold on the Griff-
men.
When he made his debut in the sixth,
Harry Collier was as nervous as a bride and
he was buffeted through his first round in
rather a rough manner. He was hit safely
twice and wildpitched. this combination
coupled with cuople of errors, gave the
Jerseyites a run. Then Collier settled and
barring lone pass in the eighth. came
through without allowing a man 10 reach
first.
Collier still mas some kinks in his delivery
that must be smoothed out but his work
yesterday showed that he is deserving pleu.i-
full consideration as Griffman Of the future

TITLED SISTERS
IN Dungeon

NAPLES. - With the arrest today
OF Baron Domenico Camarda, the
gruesome details of the medieval
punishment melted out to two young
women who had brought disgrace on
the family name we're made public.
Eighteen years ago Tersenia Ca.
marda and Isobel Camarda, the bar
on's sisters, were immured in the dun
geon Of the family castle near Mai
ratio. The young women each had an
unfortunate love affair. Tersenia was
in love with an army officer and their
child was said to have been killed by
order Of the aged baron The father
of 1sobers child is not known.
After their incarceration the young
women were subjected to various tor
lures and were supplied with only
enough foot to keep them alive. Ter
senia died after enduring these tor
lures for Is years and lsobel was
found to be insane when the police
demanded admission to the dungeon a
few days ago. The baron had con-
tinued the tortures of his two sisters
after the death of his father and was
abefted by his brother Francisco and
his other sisters, Antoina and Gracia,
1t was said Tersenia was beaten to
death by the family.
The affair came to the knowledge of
the police for the first time last Feb
ruary When they entered the castle
at that time they found ISObel in the
dungeon completely nude and living
skeleton. The family offered some
plausible explanation and the woman
was left in their custody. but was lat
er removed to the Girfalco hospital,
while a searching investigation was
begun. This resulted in the arrest OF
Baron DOmenico.

That all heavy repairs to territorial
y harNeS which come under the JurlS-
GiCtiOn OF the Board Of HarbOr Com
missioners should be allotted 10 out
side contractors and not done by the
board. and that the commission at this
time should purchase no further equip
ment for handling. work Of this kind,
are the recommendation which have
been made to the board by Chairman
IT, w Caldwell. Mr.. Caldwell is Of
the opinion that on account OF the
several fees which they pay the ter
ritOry. the local contractors should be
given every opportunity to do this
work
A communication containing Mr.
Caldwell's recommendations was read
at the meeting of the board this morn.
ing. 1t follows:
The necessity for large eXpendi.
lures for immediate repairs to GER
tain wharves within the city Of Hon
olulu is very urgent. Therefore. to
reduce our available balance for this
work by $1,000 for the purchase of a
plant (pile driving machinery. would

Judging from the past, we have

which is $4,000. by $1,000 for plant.
leaving US a working balance of $17..
600. would handicap our repairs to a
considerable extent and would not be
offset by the amount saved in doing
this work ourselves, thereby cutting
out the contractors profit-admitting
the fact, for the sake of argument,
that we could do this work with our
equipment as eheaply as the well-or'
ganized contractors.
1T is not considered, !by me, a good
policy for this commission to do any
more than the slightest repairs with
our own forces, inasmuch as the con-
tractors throughout the territory
maintain large plants, pay the terri
tory taxes on these plants. and at the
same time pay license fee to the
territory for carrying on their bust
ness. Therefore. under the circum-
stances. I feel that they should be
given every opportunity to do as
much Of our work as may be consist.
ent.
Il would further strongly recon-
mend that we purchase no further
equipment, but figure on making all
large repairs to pier 16 by contracts"
