STORY OF A HERO
Soldier Destroyed Himself to Save
Comrades.

How an American soldier dclibcr-
ot.Iy killed himself that his four com
radcs might live Is told by an Amcrl-
can ordinance officer lately returned
from the front. Ills story Is corr"h-
GRATED by an artillery officer who al
80 recently arrived here from France.
The hero. whose name may never b"
known. Is now buried in a small c"In"-
terry in France. No towering monn-
mcnt tells OF his Spartan-likc sa"rl-
flee. hut his story Is known to every
grcnadicr of tho American force and
will live always in American history
as one of the bravcst acts OF IN"
war. Here Is the story M told 10y tn"
American officer:
"It had been found that III" most
effective hand grenade is that with
the bent safety pin. But the Am"ri-
can soldiers are anxious always To
speed up have "A habit Of straight"n-
ing the pins.
I'VE have done our utmost to hau
tho practice and have told the men
times without number that they must
stand responsible If they straighh.n
the pins before going into action. For
straight pin will easily fall from
the grenade and that means within
five seconds the deadly engine will eX-
plodc.
"An American grcnadicr had been
on duty at an outpost. II appears h"
had Strengthened the pins In his
srcnadcs. When relieved from duty
he returned to his dugout where thrc"
of his pals were sleeping and one lay
awake in n bunk.
THE dugout was twenty feet un-
der ground. As he entered and clos
ed the hsavy door he took his coat
and threw it upon his bunk which
was the third or top one from tn"
floor One OF his coat pockets sag
ged open and bomb fell to tn"
floor. AS II fell the Strengthened
safety pin slipped out.
AS he saw the pin 20 spinning
across the room he realized that with
In i've StCOIl'lS All 'NPo'''' "N's
probably kill every man in the dugout.
It must have flashed across his mind
! that his pals, sleeping in the hunks
were not TO blame for the accident.
He had been warned against straight
ening grenade pins. The fault was
his and his alone.
I'm five seconds the grenade would
burst. He had time to get through
the door and leave his companions to
their death but there was not time.in
which to attempt to tear down bunk
ers and build a barricade about the
bomb. The man who was awake yell
ed to him to run but he stood fast in
his tracks.
mo man can tell what must have
passed in the soldiers mind in the
next two or three seconds. But this
we do know. The soldier picked up
the bomb. crept into corner and
hugging the bomb close to his stoHl-
ach created Of his body a barrier be-
tween the bursting engine and his
pals.

his pals escaped without scratch"

What Has Been Accomplished in One
Short Year.

Short Year.
Washington. June 25.-The first divi-
sion of the American army landed in
France one year ago tomorrow, IS
days after General Pershing reached
France. In IL months that have since
elapsed this division has grown to an
army in size and by July 1000, 900
men, all told, will have been sent for
ward.
Behind this 100000. another L.
100000 men are in camps and canton
ments equipped and eager to move and
behind these a third 100000 will
probably fill up the gaps left at home
s.sto,rs san for the fr6ht IN
an endless stream.
Secretary Baker estimated today
that between 65 and 20 per cent Of
the men already shipped are combat
ing troops in the strictest sense of the
word. The first division has now been
expanded TO a fighting force of $780,
00O mon. backed by an organization
Of the supply and transport lines that
il takes 250.00O men to make ef-
fcctivc.
ON the basis. 1t Is clear that Gen.
Pcrshing now has under his command
the substance OF the first field army,
comprised of Is infantry divisions,
with all necessary auxiliary troops. So
far as known there has been no op-
portunity yet for the actual formation
Of this army us military unit. The
whole force has been in training, Of
licers and men. but the day probably
is not distant when 1t will he possible
for General Pershing to assemble his
first army which will be veteran
lighting force.
American troops are now holding
sectors of varying length in at least
six places on the battle front. To
meet the emergency presented by the
German drive, however, they have
been drawn away from the region for
mally assigned to the United States
and are face to face with the enemy
on the Marine. in Picardy and in Flan-
ders.
The real American sectors, however.
lie on the right flank of the great
battle front. From within sight Of
the Swiss border where they stand on
German soil, almost to the shadows Of
the battered fortress or Verdun. Amer
lean troops are in the trenches.
There never has been an official
statement Of the vast schemes Of
American participation Of the war, but
the scope of the plans now begins to
become apparent.
The location of the strictly American
sectors makes it appear that the whole
project rests on the assignment to the
United States Of the task Of holding
the right flank. as British armies hold
the left leading to the channel ports,
leaving the French free to concentrate
all her armies in the center along the
road to Paris.
In addition to 5000 miles of sea be-
tween the United States and the ports
through which her armies and supplies
must reach the front, the Americans
have had to prepare more than 500
miles Of railroad. In his statement
today. Secretary Baker. who has per-
sonally Inspected the great task that
has been done abroad, said:
The achievements Of the past year
have been entirely satisfactory"

or both. no opposition will be offered

necessary. He told the committee
that 100000 men would be under
arms by next August 1st and that
class 1 would be exhausted by the
first of. next year. The present ten

HAZARD OF MINE SWEEPERS
Exploits Of TrawIers and Chasers Told
by English Admiralty.

When the story of the humble mine
sweeper Is fully Stold, many stirring
pages will be added to the history Of
warfare, for this little
craft is sharing the work Of the DASH
ing destroyer and chaser" in running
down u-boats, says a London dispatch.
A mine-sweeper invariably drops its
accustomed business for the bigger
game. and many an enemy submer-
side has been accounted for by them.
According to official reports, there
are forty times moi e mine-sweepers In
commission today in the service Of the
Allies than in July, 1914.
Recently a fleet Of six. all trawlers,
sighted a mine adrift. The rough sea
prevented the boats from sinking the
mine by gunfire; darkness was coming
on, and there was a possibility Of los
ing it. So the commander approached
the mine In a small boat, and when
within some distance of the drifting
menace, he took to the water and
swan the rest Of the way. Attaching a
line to the mine. he returned to his
boat and towed 1t ashore, where it was
exploded by rife fire.
Often days elapse before mine
which has been discovered can be de-
stroyed. In terrific gale, mountainous
seas running, party o. mlne-sweepers
found a nest OF eight rnines. The
boats were unable to use their guns
on them. and as night came on the lit
tie vessels lay In imminent danger
OF being washed into the engines OF
death. Next day two o. the mines
were sunk by gunfire, but one Of the
sweepers was lost-how, the report
does not state. 1t was not until the
evening o. the fourth day that the last
Of the mines was exploded.
The trawle- Manx King hauled up
mine in such dangerous position that
one horn Of the mine came within a
few inches of the boats rail and an
other was almost touching tho GEAR.
The slightest roll Of the vessel
would have caused its destruction.
The difficulty was met by lashins
the mine to the sweeper. so that 1t
would not be bumped against the side.
and experts were summoned to remove
the detonators from the dangerous
prize.
