found lots Of dead Turks under piles
of rock, where our guns had battered
the walls Of the quarries down on
them.
We were fighting about this part Of
the country one time when we saw
three motor trucks disappear over the
side of a hill going across country.
The detachment from the Cassard was
sent over on the run and we came
upon the Turks from those trucks and
several others just after they had got
out and we're starting ahead on foot.
We captured that whole bunch-I do
not know how many In all. They were
achievements on their way to part
Of their line that we were battering
very hard, and by capturing them we
helped the Anzacs great deal, for
they were able to get through for a
big gain.
We held that position. though they
rained shells on us so hard all that
day and night that we thought they
were placing barrage for raid, and
stood to arms until almost noon the
next day. But our guns gave back
shell for shell, and pounded the Turk
ish trenches and broke shrapnel over
them until they had all they could
do to stay In them.
Finally, our guns placed shell after
shell on the enemy's communication

NOTORIOUS HUN INTRIGUER

Admiral Won Hintze, German min
lister ut Christlanla and formerly
minister to Mexico. who was selected
to succeed DIR. Won Kuehlmann as
foreign secretary, Is perhaps the most
notorious intriguer in the German dip
lomatic service. China has been the
scene Of much of his activity. and
there he hobnobbed not only with the
Germanophile mandarins, but also
with the robber bands and spies.
So scandalous, indeed, was his be-
havior that he was recalled for q
while and ut the outbreak of the war
he was In Mexico. In the guise of an
Englishman he managed to return to
Germany by way of the United States,
England and Holland. and in 1915 was
sent back to China as minister.
He Travelled once more by the
way of America, and despite the close
watch for him which was kept by the
Japanese he managed to get across

often, when we were frying In the
trenches and not drop Of water was
to be had, something would land on
the ground near us and there would be

almost bombarded US with bottles.
Then, too, they would not fire on the
Red Cross, as the Germans do; they
would hold their fire many times when
we were out picking up our wounded.
Several times they dragged our wound
ed as close MS they could to the barbed
wire TINT we might find them easier.

up reinforcements nor retire. SO we
went over and cleaned them out and
took the trench. But then our guns
had to stop because we were in range,
and the Turks brought up reinforce
ments from other parts Of the line and
we were driven back after holding
their trench all afternoon. II was
about f1fty-fifty. though. for when they
reinforced one part of the line some
Of our troops would break through in
another part.
That night there was terrible rain
storm. guess 1t was really a cloud
burst. We had all the water we
wanted then. and more, too. A great
many men and mules were drowned,
both Of our troops and the Turkish.
Trenches were washed In and most Of
the works ruined. There were several
Turkish bodies washed into our trench,
and two mules came over together,
though whether they were Turkish or
French or British do not know.
A few days after the rain stopped
/ was going along the road to the
docks at ~" beach when l saw some
examples Of the freakishness of shells.
There was long string Of mules 60
ing back to the trenches with water
and supplies of various kinds. We
drew up to one side to let them pass.
Two or three mules away from us
was an Old-tlmer with only one ear,
and that very gray, loaded to the gun
wales with bags Of water. He had had
his troubles, that old boy, but they
were just about over, for there was a
| flash and the next instant you could
not see thing left of Old Missouri.
He just vanished. But two of the
water bags We're not even touched,
and another one had only little hole
In II. There they lay on the ground,
just as though you had taken the mule
out from under them. The mules next
him, fore and aft. were knocked down
by the conclusion but unframed; but
the third mule behind had one ear
cut to shreds. and the man behind
him was badly shot up and stunned.
A little farther on shell had struck
the road and plowed furrow two or
three feet wide, and just as straight
as an arrow for three of four yards
1t then turned Off at almost a
right angle and continued for yard
or two more before 1t burst and made
n big hole. That Turk gunner must
have put lot of English on that shell
when he fired II. He got somebody's
number with that shot, too, and the
lad paid pretty high, for there was
blood around the hole, not quite dry
when we got to II.

TURKEYS NEW SULTAN

CHAPTER xll--contInued.

II
No one man can see all OF an attack,
which may extend over miles of
ground but during the three weeks
I was In the trenches on the Gallipoli
peninsula we made four grand attacks
aud many minor ones, so / know In n
general way what they are like. Each
wave Is organized like the others.
First come three lines of what you
might call grenadiers. though they are
not picked for size MS the old kings
grenadiers used to be. They are de-
pioyed In skirmlsh formation, which
means that every man Is three yards
from the next. They were armed only
with grenades, but, you can take 1t
from me. that Is enough! Behind them
come two lines, also In skirmlsh for
nation, and armed with machine guns
and grenade rifles. The first men on
the left carry machine guns, then come
three rifle grenadiers, and then anoth-
or machine gun and so on down the
length OF the line. After these come
two lines of riflemen with hxed bay
Onets.
Then come the trench cleaners, or
moppers-up. as we call them. They
were some gang. believe me. Imagine
q team of rugby players spread out In
two lines-only with hundreds of men
on the team instead of eleven, and
each man husky, capable of han
ding baby grand piano single
handed. These fellows were armed
with everything you could think Of,
and whole lot more that you could
not dream about in nightmare. 1t
used to remind me of trial ] saw
IN New York once, where the police
had raided yeggmen's flop and had
all their weapons in the courtroom as
exhibits.
The moppers-up were heeled with
sticks. clubs, shillelahs. black Jacks,
two-handed cleavers, axes, trench
knives, ponlards. up-to-date toma-
hawks. brass knuckles, slung shots
anything that was ever invented for

firearms. These knock down, drag-oui

CHAPTER XIII.
LImeys, Anzacs and poIIus.

One night, while we were expecting
an attack, the word was passed down
the line to have the wire cutters ready
and to use bayonets only for the first
part Of the attack, for we were to try
and take the first enemy trench by
surprise. The first trench was only
about eighty yards away. Our big guns
opened up and Mt zero we climbed out
and followed the curtain OF fire too
closely, II seemed to me.
But the barrage stopped too soon.
as It does sometimes, and there were
plenty OF Turks left. We were half
way across when they saw us, and
they began banging away ut us very
hard. They pounded at us as we came
on until we were given the order to
retire, almost AZ we were on them
what was left of MS.
As we turned and started back the
Turks rushed out to counter-attack us,
the frst of them busy with bombs.
Then / tripped over something and
rolled around while and then saw
it was Philippe Pierre. His left leg
was dangling, cloth and flesh and all
shot away and the leg hanging to the
rest of him by shred. Two or three
of our men who were on their way
back to our trenches tripped over me
as I tried to get up, and then shell
exploded near by and thought I had
go. II sure. but 1t was only the rocks
thrown up by the explosion.
Finally / was able to stand up. So
slung my rifle over one shoulder
and got Philippe Pierre up on the
other, with his body from the waist
up hanging over my back, so that
I could hold his wounded leg on, and
started back. There was only one or
two OF. our men left between the
trenches. Our machine guns were ut
1t hard and the Turks were firing and
bombing at full speed.

three PAGES when / came across
another of our men, wounded In sew
eral places and grooming away at a
great rate. Philippe Pierre was not
saying word, but the other chap

wounded man was all could manage,

Pierre. They started the lad back In

him again he gave me little box as
a souvenir, but i have lost It.
