How important a part the United States destroyer fleet is playing in French waters and what the routine work of the vessel consists of may be seen from the following letter I have just received from a member of the crew of one of these sea wasps that are slowly but surely forcing even German submarine to defensive warfare.
 We left ------ with several trans ports. conveying them safely beyond the danger zone, and were homeward bound at brisk pace, sailing n smooth and oily sea. About 800 miles out we were awakened from the routine by the reports of shel fire. At the same moment the lookouts in the crows nest reported a schooner, bark rigged being fired into ten miles away direct ly on our port beam.

Accord ing to the captains story, they had been suddenly attacked by a huge sub marine measuring over 500 feet and carrying two guns, an extremely heavy piece forward, with @ lighter gun aft The submarine first appeared at dis tance of only 100 yards and fired a shot to heave to. When the order had been obeyed the German captain or dercd all the men into the boats. after first demanding what their cargo con- sisted of and rlfllng the schooner for fats and oils she carried.
 Seven more shells were fired into the schooner. while the men were still engaged in swinging clear the boats, but fortunately only one of them took effect The Germans suddenly discov- cred our ship speeding to the schoon-

As we reached a point still about 6 quar- ter of mile from the schooner. after hailins six fishing dories containing some thirty men, we observed a huge wake leading to the south. Sending cxtIz, stokers to the freroom, We were soon in the middle of the disturbed water that Is caused by a large sub marine directly after submerging.
 At a signal from the commander, three depth bombs, set to explode at eighty feet, were dropped from the stern quarters. We were soon reward ed by seeing the color of the water change in the immediate vicinity, and while still picking up the survivors we noted a brownish slime coming up in bubbles. This was shortly followed by pieces of planking and bbobs of grease. making us reasonably sure we had landed a diver with our high cx- plosive torpedoes.

Walter Scott, alias Death Valley Scotty," heralded 8 few years ago as the discoverer of an Fl Dorado in Death Valley. famous for his prodigal- ity in spending money, weaver of desert romance that startled seekers of gold all over the world, Is working in the Natomas bean fields. near Sacra- mento. for $225 a day, says San Francisco news dispatch of Nov. 20.
 Several years ago "Scotty" appeared in Los Angeles in the rough garb of miner and possessed of a prodigious bankroll of large denominations. He claimed to have discovered a mine in Death Valley and proceeded to scatter huge tips among the bellboys in the hotels. He created a furor across the continent.
 From time to time "Scotty' would disappear into the desert and would return with fresh supply of money.
The Nome daily nugget., 1918-02-06

No one knew just how he got the money of where the fabulous mine was located.
 On one occasion he entered the bar of a Los Angeles hotel and called for cigars. In payment he offered q $l00 biM. T can't change it." said the at tcndant. That's all right. Take this. " said "Scotty" tearing the bill in two and offering half of 1t in payment
 In 1905 "Scotty" decided to go east. He chartered a $500 special from the Santa Fe and covered the 2,265 miles from Los Angeles to Chicago In forty three hours and flfty-five minutes.
 In Chicago he established a new record for spending. He ordered cham pagne for breakfast and at any time during the day when he happened to be thirsty.
 From time to time various capital ists attempted to corner "Scotty" and

 In 1912 is was reported that Death Valley" Scott had sold his mine for $1,OOO,Oo0. It developed, however. that the mine never existed, and the fa- nous spendthrift found himself the laughing stock of the west. Where he obtained his money has never been discovered He dropped from sight.

CTS aid. They hurliedly submerged, but not quick enough to conceal their whereabouts under the water when we steamed up We only cruiscd about long enough to pick up all the crew and make as sure as We could we had finished with the diver
 Forty minutes after we had heard tho first shell we were again under way, leaving tc schooner to the mercy of the sea, but only after we had wire lessed to other patrol boats telling them of her whereabouts Some three hours later We picked up a wireless from a British destroyer that she had found the schooner and was towing her safely to port
 The fates were exceedingly kind to us that day. At Il o'clock that night while the subject of the recent attack was till under discussion, the lookout on the bridge discovered another sub marine dead ahead of us. It was clear, moonlight night, and, with the naked eye. one could make out the outlines of the monster lying on the surface of the water. for all the world like Q huge whale that had come up for air
 Jamlning the helm over, the officer of the deck ordered the starboard bat tery to get into action There wae not a sign of live from the submarine which was just in the process of sub merging when our five inch gun parked clear and sharp. The gInner's aim had been true. There was a muf- fled explosion from the diver, which seemed to lift from the surface of the water Then she buckled in tho mid de. turned over and sank Even then we took no chances, We steamed directly over the place where she had gone down and let go four depth bombs of different sizes in as
 
 that another U-boat had been sent where it would never more endanger the lives of American sailors or Amer ican ships. 1 believe this will almost establish a record While 1t is a we'll known fact American ships arc doing exceptionally good work thls is about the first time that one ship has ac- counted for two submarines within period of twelve hours.
 Oh yes, nearly forgot to tell you. 1 1t was not until after we rescued them that the crew of the fishing schooner became aware of the fact that America had entered the war. They asserted that We were British until tho men pointed out the "U. S. S." on thcr hatbands Even then they were not convinced until the commander himself confirmed the mems statements.

COMMISSIONED A LIEUTENANT

M. Z. Brundage has just received a
letter from Lieutenant v. M. Reppert,
giving his. new address as Bird Co.,
Casual Detachment, Inf. Replace
ment Camp, Camp Lee, Va, and ask
ing that his friends be advised and
the Russell papers mailed to him
there. Lieutenant Reppert does not
know how long he will remain at
Camp Lee, as he is subject to trans
fer at any time, and only hopes that
he will be transferred to cooler
climate, as it registered no degrees
in the shade on June 2. He is in good
health and very much interested in
his work. He mentions the fact that
the Presidents daughter, Miss Mar
guerite, sang an hour for them last
week at the Y. M. C. A. No. g. 1t
was a fine program and all enjoyed
it very much.
Lieutenant Reppert left Russell
September 20, 1917, for Camp Fun

NOTED as follows: October 1, 1917
Corporal; October 8, Sergeant; Nov

his intelligent application and loyalty
to the service, and his host of friends
will hope that he may receive further
