S WOMEN SOLDIERS IN DEATH
BATTALION DIE IN
FIRST FIGHT

Petrograd, July 26.-Five women
soldiers, members of the Battalion
of Death, were killed in the first en-
gagement with the Germans, said a
dispatch from the front today. The
number wounded were not stated.
The women went to the front less
than three weeks ago, determined to
shame the peace agitators and mutt
nous soldiers into action by their own
courage. Their holiness was more
than proved in their first fight, when
they stood up under fire like veterans
shouting their battle cry, eve do or
die for Russia and freedom"
