 Finally we reached a hill 1,s0 feet high where we were detained il a walled enclosure containing thre, houses.

 T did not know the other prison CTS in my party but saw woman led up higher on the mountain. I tried to discover who she was but was cracked on the nose by bandit for my curiosity.
 We were without food or water until after noon. Meanwhile Chinese soldiers already were firing on the robber outposts. The robbers then directed me to write the soldiers a note telling them not to come closer or the prisoners would be killed in- stantly. With pistol at my stomach, I wrote this note, which was taken out by a bandit, who removed his cartridge belt and emerged as an ordinary villager.
 Given Note to Camp.
 "The soldiers, however, did not stop firing, and the. bandits asked me to write second note and take it out myself under the guard of bandit carrying flag of truce. This was attempted but my bandit escort, scared of the firing. went back to the compound, and I went with him. The bandits in the compound, armed with rifles replied to the fire of the sol diers.
 The bandit chief insisted that third note be written. This one he gave to two of the Chinese captives and they demanded that foreigner accompany them, as the task was I volunteered to go out again, knowing that I could make my getaway

Chinese Regulars Accused of Negligence-Canadian Citizen Outraged-Ameri- can Boys Separated From Fathers.
ESCAPED PRISONER
 TELLS OF FLIGHT

By The Associated Press.
 lien Tsin, May 9.--F. P. Day, the American who escaped from the Suchow train bandits, revealed in ar official statement to the American consul today the disqnieting probabil- ity that the bandits, surrounded by soldiers, had crept from their fast nesses in the hills under the cover of night and had resumed their march into the interior with their foreign captivcs,
 Day said that as he was leaving military headquarters, scouts reported to the Chinese general that the brig ands had escaped from their hiding places on the mountain summits. This in Days opinion, indicated that they had eight or nine hours start on the pursuers.
 Soldiers Are Negligent
 Negligence of the soldiers in not closely investing the bandits strong holds is reported here. If the kid nappers got away the difficulty of capturing them has been increased vastly, likewise the suffering of their captives as the country is remote, wild and thinly populated
 At present it is unknown whether the bandits turned east or west after they crossed the Shantung boundary. It is frevently hoped that they will not turn back toward -Kweite to join the bandits in Honon province led by the notorious Loa Yang-Jen
 Confirms Britisher Taken
 Mr. Day also brought confirmation that the bandits held R. H. Rowlatt a prominent British resident of Tien Tsin. MT. Rowlatt is manager of Reiss and Co. merchants, and is be- lieved to have been married in San Francisco about six months ago.
 The belief expressed here today is that the bandits still held about 26 foreigners, or twice the number whose escaped was based on the report that several foreigners including four Am erican missionaries boarded the Pe- king express at way stations and there fore were not named on the list of | passengers given out after the bandits had seized the train.
 Separated From Fathers
 Miss A. Corralli, the Italian, when | released by the bandits with ran some message, tried to take with her one of the two boys held-the sons of | Majors Allen and Finger, the Ameri- can army officers. but the bandits re- fused. and apparently she said, the were separated from their

chant, named Lowe, traveling to Shanghai on the 7'sinpu railway, was pulled from the train by Chinese civilians, beaten and bound and car ried off to the bureau of foreign af- fairs here. Chinese police standing by, made no effort to release him but q foreigner who saw the abduction notified the British consul. The con- sul demanded and obtained Lowe'- release imm ediately, but an explana- ton of the affair is awaited impa- tiently in foreign circles.
 Veterans Indignant
 Veterans of the world war associa- ton held an indignation meeting to- day to consider a protest against the activities of Chinese bandits.
 Day Tells Experiences
 Day told of his experiences from the time he was aroused from his berth on the Picking express.
 T was awakened" he said, "by the rattle Of firing and the jerk of the trains derailment. I saw by moon- light, Chinese lying in the fields firing at the train. I aroused Rowlatt who was in the upper berth. Realizing we were attacked by bandits, we cof- lected a watch, tie pin and money as we thought it safer to have something to give the bandits
 His Face Slapped
 They broke in the windows and lifted out handbag containing my and personal belongings and hen fired across me as I lay in the 1erth. apparently 10 scare me. Next hey entered and slapped my face while half dozen guns were pointed rom as many bandits. They order i ,d me to leave. prodding my back with pistols and forcing me to climb through shattered window glass.

songs, have come to be considered as
such This is the proper date to re-
fer to John Howard Payne, as he was

an actor and appeared on the stage in

Home. Sweet Home" The poem
was set to music and added to the
opera which the famous English
composer, Sir Henry Bishop, had
made of Payne's play, "Clari the
Maid of Milan" 1t became the fav-
orite song of many great singers,
among them Jenny Lind.
