the battle of North Point and the re-
tirement of the British to their ships.
It was this matchless defense that
saved the nation aid checked the pro-
posed attack upon Philadelphia and
New York.
Then took place the attack upon the
historical Fort McHenry; 10 bomb
and-rocket vessels bombarded the fort.
throwing a constant shower of rock
cts and bombs, the later weighing ~
pounds. Colonel Armisted, in command
of the fort, was unable to reach them
except on one or two occasions when
they came nearer. AS the army was
retreating, a more severe lombard
ment than before was executed. I'm
der the cover of darkness, as last
resort. several rocket vessels and
barges, with 1850 picked men, passed
south of Fort McHenry and attempted
to land. After passing the fort, they
threw up rockets of rejoicing and to
light landing place. This, however,
was their undoing, and caused Com
modore Rogers "invincible crew" at
Fort Covington, under Lieutenant New
combe and Barney's fiotilla men, I'M
der Lieut.. John Webster, at Fort Bah
cock, to pour into them pitiless fire,
sinking one barge with all on board
and compelling the rest to retire. The
enemy retired badly damaged under
the fire from Fort McHenry and the
Lozaretto. At safe distance they
continued to lombard Fort McHenry
until morning. The bombardment
lasted for 25 hours, and they are said
to have thrown 1900 to 1900 great
bombs. 400 of which landed in Fort
McHenry.
DIR. William Beanes, who had en-
countered the displeasure of the Brit
ish at Upper Marlboro, in their march
upon Washington, had been carried off
in their fleet. He was particularly
close friend of Francis Scott Key, who
visited the feet at Baltimore to seek
the release Of his friend Having
boarded the Minden, one of the ships
of the fleet, the British compelled him
ito remain until after the .bombardment.
There he was during that memorable
night when Fort McHenry was being
SO terribly assaulted. We can well
imagine his anxiety as to the fate of
the fort and the attack to be made
upon the city wherein resided his fam
ily and loved ones. He and his friend
paced the deck during that night of
September 13. The bombardment
ceased just before day. So long as
the bombardment continued they>xnew
the fort had not surrendered, but when
it ceased before daylight it left them
in great suspense as to the result. We
may well imagine how earnestly they
looked forward to dawn and sufficient
light to relieve their anxiety. How
happy they must have been when they
saw that "the flag was still there"
Key was stirred to the depths by pa
triotic fervor and devotion, and there
wrote his song of rejoicing, '"The Star
Spangled Banner"
The memory of the old flag which
saluted Key on that morning of Sep
TENDER IA, 1914, still lives In the
hearts Of the people, and the flag is
stored in the archives of the govern
ment.

whom he told the threats he had re-
ceived and promised to return for the
trial, providing his present hiding
place was kept secret.
MAY Have Headed Drug Ring.
One theory which has been advanced
for the brutal murder is that the wom-
an headed a drug ring, or possibly
was engaged in rum running" and
had been killed when she refused to
furnish further funds. No enemies
have been found, and Mrs. Sudow's
unusual trait of keeping her own per-
sonal affairs closely to herself have
handicapped the police investigation,
Tor no one has been found who could
tell when the woman left her home.
The young daughter, who has In
herited her mothers entire fortune,
was kept at school and knew almost
nothing about her mothers personal
affairs.
As the double life of the woman
has been gradually exposed, it was
learned that she was liberal giver
to charity, but that where she loaned
money her business instinct ruled, and
demanded prompt repayment at the
stated time.

Bernard Sudow, the woman's husband,

Took Trips With Male Companions.
The police, in unraveling the story
Of this strange woman, found that she
had at various times, taken long trips
with different men. They have found
some of these men, but as yet have
secured no real clew as to the per-
son who lured the woman to a clump
Of trees, beat her to death, stripped
the body of clothing and then horribly
mutilated the face.
The nude body was discovered by
John Hudson, a resident Of Los An

ried away, and it was with difficulty
that identification had been made.
Hudson was warned by some un-
known person not to attend the COR

such an impression on him that he
left the state and went to a remote

Port Covington-all today within the
limits of the city of Baltimore.
Because of her zeal and loyalty,
Baltimore was singled out as the
target for British vengeance. On the
18th of June, 1914, newspaper pub
lished in London stated:
.sThe great expedition preparing at
Bordeaux for America is destined for
the Chesapeake direct. Our little army
in Canada will at the same instant be
directed to make a movement in the
direction of the Susquehanna. Both
armies will in all probability meet at
Washington, Philadelphia, and Balti-
more. Our naval and military COM
manders have no power to conclude
any armistice or suspension of arms.
They carry with them certain papers
which will be offered to the American
government at the point Of the bayo-
net"
After the humiliating sack of Wash
ington, the British turned with re-
newed anger to attack Baltimore, to
which the helpless national govern
ment could offer no resistance.
The British, however, found strong
Notifications to protect the city against
their attack. Gen. Samuel Smith,
heroic revolutionary figure, with a
large force, had built Notifications over
a mile in length from the harbor as
far as the present Hopkins hospital.
Behind these were mounted over 100
cannon, with 10000 troops. The cit
liens rallied as one man under General
Smith and toiled day after day with
pick, shovel, and wheelbarrow until
great armament greeted the British
when, after the Battle of North Point,
they arrived within sight Of the city
and were compelled to retreat to their
ships without single shot. The
Americans were so eager for the en-
counter they could not await their
coming. When news reached General
Smith of the anchorage at North Point
of a BritisL feet of so vessels, the
most formidable fleet ever seen in
American waters, Gen. Stricken asked
leave to advance with a brigade Of
5000 men to draw them on. Those
men who landed on the 18th of Septem-
Der, 1914, were picked soldiers Of Eu-
rope, the Duke of Wellington's In
yincibles and Lord Nelson's victorious
marines, fresh from Napoleonic wars.
The Americans. marched bravely fer

tarried to lunch. General Stricken, with
300 voluntary skirmish- party, advanced
to draw them ON. General Ross, believ-
ing it incredible that the new repub-
lie should have men so fearless as to
advance against his British forces,
proceeded to investigate, when he was
shot down by American ri1emen, and
the command fell to Colonel Brooke. A
monument today stands for the two
young men in Baltimore who brought
down General Ross. For an hour and a
half the raw militia of the States held

those VINO Stanu KNOW
mat 1T was written by Francis Scott
hey, though very few know that it
Is sung to the tune of "Anacreen in
Heaven" How many know the when,
where and how of its writing?
The citizens of Baltimore staged an
impressive pageant of the centenary
of the Battle of North Point and Fort
McHenry during the week of Septem-
Der II, 1914. Congress appropriated
$4,000 for the erection of a monu-
ment to Key, this monument to be
dedicated this summer with appropri-
ate ceremonies. 1t is therefore timely
to recall the stirring events which led
to the writing of this immortal song.
Representative J. Charles Linthicum
of Maryland in recent speech in the
house reviewed those events and said,
among other things:
Mr.. Linthicum-This monument now
to be dedicated by the national gov
ernment to that immortal poet is but
a fitting tribute from the government
TO my native state of Maryland for
the heroism, generosity and support
of its people during the trOublous
times of 1912.
To the strong support of Maryland,
and particularly of its metropolis, Bal
timore, is largely due the successful
termination of that war. 1t was a
Baltimore man-Minister Pinckney-
who asked for his leave of England,
and was made Attorney General of the
United States, and wrote the declara-
ton of war.
Maryland gave to the war more Off
GERS, ships, and seamen than any other
state She supplied 46 officers, or
nearly one-fifth Of all the officers, of
the American navy. Virginia supplied
40, which was more than all New Eng
land. Baltimore supplied 81 privateers !;
Salem, 40; Boston, 80; and Philadel-
pkia. IA; and the state of Maryland
equipped over 100 privateers in all. 1t
is estimated that the loss to England's
commerce by the Baltimore privateer
captures alone was over $16,O00,OO0.
1t was Commodore John Rogers of
Baltimore, who commanded the North
Atlantic squadron, and Stephen De-
catur, Jr., native of Berlin, Nd, who
commanded the South Atlantic squad
ron. 1t was Commodore Rogers of
Maryland on the flagship The Presi-
dent who personally fred the first shot
of the war at the British ship Bel
vedira. It was a Chesapeake crew
commanding the Constitution, better
known as Old Ironsides, which cap
tured the first frigate Guerrero
The merchants of Baltimore loaned
to the national government 100000
which was later assumed by the city
of Baltimore, and became its first
municipal debt. Finding no part OF
this fund available for the defense d
the city, Baltimore raised 100000 adj
ditionaI with which to fortify Fort
McHenry, Fort Babcock-now River
side park and Fort Covingtone-nOW
