UPRISING in CHINA

BY THE SEA SOLDIERS or THE

Their interest is natural for a bat
talon Of Marines is helled in readiness
for just such contingency as a lega-
ton guard at Picking, China, under the
command Of Colonel Louis Mason
Guliek. And within the call of the
wireless another battalion Of Marines
can speedily be landed from the crui.
sers Of the Asiatic fleet and rushed
to Peking or any other point Of
trouble. Already small detachment
of the handy fighting men have been
despatched to Tung-Cho from the lega-
ton guard, where footing and dlsor-
der are going on. and If necessary
viii bring the American residents to
Picking. A Shanghai cable last week
brought news that two American
Marines, operating a Lewis machine
gun, routed a band Of brigands on the
outskirts or Chunking in Central
China.
These two men. Corporal Elmer G.
CHASER, of Milwaukee, and Private
Earl F. witherill of Cheynne, Wyo.,
got their piece into action when the
American steamship Robert Dollar
was fired on by bandits from the
banks of the Yangste and from Samp-
ans.
The Marines won laurels during the
Boxer rebellion in 1900, two regiments
taking part in the capture of Tien-I
tsin and in the march to the relief Of
the besiged legation of Picking, and
when the monarchist rebellion of
1916 threatened to set the East ablaze
he Marines were on the job again.
