The world war stui ts soon after he receives hls honorable discharge . from the navy, and he leaves for France with a determination to enlist. He Joins the Foreign Legion and is assigned to the dreaffiniught Cussard, where his marksmanship wins him high honors. Later he is transferred to the land forces and sent to the Flanders front. He gels his first experience in a front line trench at Dimwit. Ile goes \over the top\ and gets hie first Gesrma'n In a bayonet fight. While on runner service, Depew Is caught in a Zeppelin raid awl has an exciting experience. In a fierce fight with the Ger- mans, he is wounded and is sent to a hospital. After recovering he Is ordered back to sea duty and sails on the Cassard for the Dardanelles. CHAPTER Xi. —9— Action at the Dardanelles. I made twelve trips to the Darda- nelles in all, the Cassard acting gen- erally as convoy to troop ships, but one trip was much like another, and I cannot remember all the details, so I will give only certain incidents of the voyages that you might 'find inter- esting. We never put into the Darda- nelle8 without being under fire—but 6ALLIPOLImi1k,s DARDANELLES besides saying so, what is there to Write about in that? It was interest- ing enough at the time, though, you can take it from me! Coming up to \V\ beach on our third trip to the Derdanclies, the weather was as nnsty as any I have ever seen. The rein was sweeping slang in sheets—great big drops, and iriven by the wind in regular volleys. You could see the wfnd coming, by the line of white against a swell where the drops hit. As we rounded the point, the seas got choppier, and there were cross eurrents bucking the ship from every angle, it seemed. You could not see two hundred yards away. the rain was so thick, and the combers were breaking over our bows three a min- nte. The roast here is pretty danger- ous, SO we went In very slowly and had the sounding line going 1 until its whir-r-tsr sounded louder than a ma- chine gun in action. I was on the starboard how at the time and had turned to watch some garbles poking at the scuppers to lraln the water off the deck. But the scuppers hail been plugged and they were having a hard time of it. The officer on the bridge. In oilskins, was walking up and down, wiping off the business end of his telescope and try- ing to dodge the rain. All of the gar- bles but one left the scuppers on the starboard side and started across decks to port. The other chap keot on fooling around the scuppers. Then I saw a big wave coming for us, just )ff the starbrierd bow and I grabbed hold of a stanchion and took a deep breath and held on. When my head ;hewed above water again the other ord of the wave was just passing over the place where the garbles had been, and the officer was shouting, \Tin honInie a to mer!\ He shouted beftire 'he man really was overboard, because ie saw that the wave would get him. I rustled back to the port bow and looked hack, for the wave had carried him clear rwross the decks, and saw the poor lad in the water, trying to fend himself off from the ship's side. Opt it was no go, and the port pro- peller blades just carved him into bits. On our homeward voyage we re- Vived word again by wireless that there were 7,eppelins at sea. We did lot believe this and it proved to bo intrue. But there were other stories hid taller ones, told IDS by one of the wireless operators, that some of the garbtes believed. This chap was the real original Baron Munchausen when it came to yarning, and for a while he had me going too. He would whisper some startling tale to us and make us promise not to tell, as he had picked It from some other ship's message, and the Old Man would spread-eagle him if he found it out. They probably would have logged him, at that, if they had known he was filling us full of wind the way lie did. He told me one time that Henry Ford hail invented something or other for locating subs miles away, and also another device that would draw the sub right up to it anti swallow it whole. He had a lot of other yarns that I cannot remember, but I did not believe him because I saw he was picking out certain men to tell certain yarns to—that Is, spinning them where they would he more sure of being be- lieved and not just spinning them any- where. So I got pretty tired of this stuff after a while and when we put out from Brest on the fourth voyage I got this fellow on deck in rough weather and began talking to him about the chalk who had gone over- board the (line before and had been silt up by the propeller. I pretended that, of course, he knew all about it— that the Old Man had had this garby pushed overboard because he was too free with his mouth. But this did not seem to do any good, so I had to think up another way. When we were out two days I got hold of our prize liar again. I figured that lie would be superstitious and I was right. I suld that of course he knew that a ship could not draw near Cape lielles and get away again un- less at least one man was lost, or that, If it did get away, there would, be many casualties aboard. I said it had always been that way and claimed that the Old Man had prlied tills garby overboard because someone had to go. I said on our other trips no one had been sacrificed and that was the reason we had suffered so much, and (lint the old Man had been called down by the French minister of the navy. I told liim the Ohl Man would pick on whatever garby he thought he could best spare. That was all I hud to tell Iiim. Et- her he thought the Old Man knew of his yarning or else he . did not think himself of much Recount, for lie dis- appeared that very watch and we did not see him again until we were on the homeward voyage end a steward happened to dig into a provision bold. There was our lying . friend, with a life belt on, anisther under his head, and the bight of a rope around his waist, fast asleep. Why he had the rope I do not know, but he was scared to death and thought we were going to chuck him overboard at once. I think, he must have tbid the officers everything, because I noticed them looking pretty hard at me—or at least I thought I did; maybe it was my conscience, If I may brag about hav- ing one—and I thought one of the lieu- tenants was just .about to grin at me several times, but we never heard any more about it, or any more yarns from our wireless friend. The fourth voyage was pretty rough, too. The old girl would stick he's nose into the seas and many times I thought she would forget to come out. We had a lot of sand piled up against the wheelhouse and .after we dived pretty deep one time and bucked out slowly, there was not a grain of sand left. It looked like the sea was just kidding us, for we were almost into quiet water, and here it had just taken one sea aboard to clean up the sand we carried all the way from Brest. During the whole voyage you could not get near the galley, which was where our wireless friend hung out when he could. The pans and Miles hanging on the wall stood straight out when the ship pitched, and several heavy ones came down on a cook's head while he was sitting under them during a heavy sea. net made him superstitious, too, and ae disappeared and was not found for two days. But he was a landsman and not used to heavy weather. When we got to the Gallipoli penin- sula the fifth time our battle fleet and transports lay off the straits. We could not reach the little harbor on the Turkish coast, but the whole fleet felt happy and fairly confident of vic- tory. We lay off Cape Wiles, and it was there we received the news that there were submarines lying around Gibraltar. Then they were reported off Malta. We got the news from Brit- ish trawlers and transports. Our offi. cars said the subs could not reach the Dardanelles without putting in some- where for a fresh supply of fuel, and that the allied fleets were on the look- ou. at every place where the subs might try to put in. But they got there just the same. Then the British superdreadnaught Queen Elizabeth, \the terror of the Turks,\ came In. She left England with a whole fleet of cruisers and de- stroyers, and all the Limeys* said, \She'll get through. INothing will stop her.\ One of the boys aboard of her told me he had no idea the Dardanelles would be as hot a place as he found it was. \Gaw blimey,\ he said, \what with dodging shells and submarines, you cawn't 'elp but run onto a bloomin' mine. 111 don't mind tellin' yob,\ he said, \that II1 wag scared cold at first. And then III thinks of what 'Oly Joe' (the chaplain) told us one service. '111u (lines of dynger, look hupwards,' 'e says. ,So Hi loryks hupvvards, and bilmey hif there wasn't a batty plane a-droppin' bombs lion us. 'What price hipward looks, Oly Joe?' I sings out, but -lie weren't nowheres near, illarst me, there weren't nowhere you could look without dolie yer bloody heye a dirty trick.\ When the Queen Elizabeth entered the Dardanelles, the Turkish batteries on both shores opened right on her. They had ideal positions, and they. were banging away in great style. And the water was simply thick with mines, and for all anybody knew, with subs. Yet the old Lizzie sailed right along, with her band up on the main deck playing, \Everybody's Doing It.\ 'It made you feel shivery along the spine, and believe me, they got a great hand from the whole fleet. They say her Old Man told the boys he was going to drive right ahead and that if the ship was sunk he would know that tire enerity was somewhere in the vicinity. Well, they were headed right, but they never got past the Narrows. They stuck until the last minute though, and those who went up, went up with the right spirit. \Are we downhearted?\ they would yell. \No I\ And they were not, either. They did not brag when they put it over on the Turks, and they did not grouch when they ririw that their Red Caps had made mistakes. Their motto was, \Try again.\ and they tried day after day. I do not know much about the histories of armies, but I do not believe there was ever an army like that of the allies in the Gallipoli campaign, and I do not think any other army could have done what they did. I take off my hat to the Hritish army and navy after that. It was hotter than I have ever known it to be elsewhere, and there was no water for the boys ashore but what the navy brought to them—some- times a pint a day, and often none at all. The Turks had positions that you could not expect any army to take, were well supplied with ammunition and were used to the country and the climate. Most of tile British army were green troops. It was the Anzacs' first campaign. They were wonderful boys, these Australians and New Zealanders. Great big men, all of them, and finely built, and they folight like devils. I \Un Homme a Is Merl\ was hand-to-hand work half the time; hardly any sleep, no water, sometimes no food. They made a mark there at Gallipoli that the world will have to go some to beat. Our boys were on the job, too. We held our part of the works until the time came for everybody to quit, and it was no picnic, The French should be very proud of the work their navy did there in the Dardanelles. On our sixth trip I saw H. M. S. Goliath get It. She was struck three times bs torpedoes and then shelled. The men were floundering around in the water, with shrapnel cutting the VeliveR all around them. Cnly a hun- dred odd of her crew were eased. One day, off Cape Hellen, durint our seventh trick at the Dardanelles we sighted a eub periscope just about dinner time. The Prince George and a destroyer sighted the sub at the same time, and the Prince George let go two rounds before the periscope dis- appeared, but did not hit the mark. Transpprta, battleships and cruisers were thick around there, all at anchor, and ir was a great place for a sub to be. -- In no (line at all the destroyers breezed out with their tails in the air, throwing a smoke screen around the larger ships. They hunted high and low, all over the spot where she had been sighted and all around it, thinking to ram it or bring It to the surface, go we could take a crack at \I Saw a. M. S. Goliath Get It.\ it, sAll tif• rest of the fleet—battle. ships and transports—weighed anchor at once ahd steamed ahead at full speed. It was a great sight. Any new ship coming up would have thought the British and French navies had gone crazy. We did not have any fixed course, hut were steaming as fast, as we could in circles and half circles, and dashing madly from port to star- board. We were not going to allow that sub to get a straight shot at us, btit we almost rammed ourselves doing it. It was a case of chase -tail for every ship in the fleet. But the sub did not show itself again that day, and we anchored again. That night, while the destroy- ers were around the ships, we slipped our cables and patrolled the coast along the Australian position at Gabe Tepe, but we did not anchor. The following day the Albion went ashore in the fog, south of Gabe Tepe, and as soon as the fog lifted the Turks let loose and gave it to her hot. A Turkish ship came up and, with any kind of gunnery, could have raked her fore and aft, but the Turks must have been pretty shy of gun sense, for they only got in one hit before they were driven off by II. M. S. Cam opus, which has made such a fine record in this war. Then the Canopus pulled in close to the Albion, got a wire hawser aboard, and attempted to tow her out under a heavy fire, but 88 soon as she started pulling, the cable snapped. The crew of the Albion were ordered aft and jumped up on the quarter deck to try and shift the bow off the bank. At th'e same time the fore turret and the fore six-inch guns opened up a hot fire on the Turkish positions to lighter the ship and shift her by the concussions of the guns. For a long time they could not budge her. Theo the Canopus got another hawser aboard and, with guns going and the crew jumping end the Canopus pulling the old Albion finally slid off and both ships backed into deep water with little harm done 1.0 either. Then they returned to their old anchorages. , At Cape Hellos every one was wide. awake. We were all on the lookoul for subs and you could not find one man nappiog. Anything at all passed for a periscope—tins, barrels, spars. Dead horses generally float In the water with one foot sticking up, and we gave the alarm many a time when it was only some old nag on his way to Davy's locker. On the Cassard the Old Man posted a reward of 50 francs for the first man who sighted a periscope. This was a good idea, but believe me he would have had trouble making the award, for every man on the ship would be sUre to see it at the same time. Each man felt sore he would be the man to get the reward. The 14 -pounders were loaded and ready for action on a sec- ond's notice. But the reward war never claimed. Depew gets into a hot place when he volunteers for . service In the trenches at Gallipoli. After a battle he finds his pal a victim of Hun frightfulness. The next Installment tells the story. (TO LIE CONTINUED.) Martial Law. Martial law Is not a law at all In the usual sense of that term; it Is really the abrogation of law. It is an ordet that supersedes civil law, and is em. ployed in time of extreme peril to the state or municipality from without or within, when the general safety can- not be trusted to the ordinary admin- istration of government, or the public welfare demands the adoption and ssr ecution of extraordinary measures.
