WAR CORRESPONDENTS
NOW ON THE JOB
Shepherd Writes Interestingly
How They Were Called To
The Front by Federal
Four Flushers.
United Press Service.
Vera Cruz, May 2—The first
opportunity for all the war cor
respondents to get together on
the job at one and the same time
came today. Before now we’ve
I worked in relays. When “war”
broke put some correspondents
were in Mexico City and had to
.come down to Vera Cruz dis
guised as Englishmen. They
got here too late for the battle.
At that same time a large num
ber of correspondents were on
: the high seas, on battleships and
I chartered boats and they, too,
missed the battle. There were
■only a few correspondents in
jVera Cruz at the time of the ac
tual fighting. But, within the
past few days, we’ve all met
I here—some 250 of us—and to
day was the first chance that
the w'hole crowd had found a
jchahce to work together, en
masse.
It was a terrible sight; we al
most upset the army routine;
we had General Funston and his
entire staff trying to keep out of
our way so that they could take
]care of a fight that was impend
ing. It was like this:
Wav nnf in fhp cnnrihilla pioHht
j miles from the city, a Mexican
| captain had taken it into his
head, if he could get hold of the
water works of Vera Cruz,
which were within a mile of his
line, he could control Vera Cruz
and kill the American invaders
by thirst. To carry out this
plan, he sent a lieutenant and
three men, under a flag of truce,
!to Major Russell, wrho had
charge of the 130 marines at the
waterworks, with the demand
that the major immediately sur
render the waterworks, intimat
ing that something would be do
ing. “You must surrender in 10
minutes or we will attack." said
the envoy.
When Russell, over the field
wireless, flashed the news of
the incident across the bleak
sandhills, to General Funston’s
headquarters in Vera Cruz,
there really was something do
ing. But it was among the cor
respondents and not among the
officers and soldiers. In the
first place nbne of the 250 of us
had army passes, but only tick
ets which the navy had given us.
We had to have army passes.
We rushed up to headquarters in
street cars, coaches, on foot; we
besieged the building in which
Funston has his headquarters.
They wouldn’t let us in. Gener
al Funston was busy, they said,
getting reinforcements out to
the waterworks.
“Reinforcements,” said an in
dignant war correspondent
“That’s all right but what about
us?”
“There won’t be any battle for
you fellows to see, if we don’t
get somebody out to the water
works to fight,” said a lieuten
ant. “We have to get rein
forcements out there first, and
that’s what the general is busy
about.”
young Lieutenant named Wil
liam Bell, should sign our pass
es, permitting us to go to the
scene. But we couldn’t get into
the building; we must line up
on the side walk before a door
like window which opened into
the room where Lieutenant Bell
sat- We were dead willing. It
was our fault anyhow, because
I we hadn’t arranged for our pass
es earlier. We stood in line like
(people at a theater box office.
jAs soon as a man got his pass,
i he started for “the front”.
“Starting for the front” consist
ing in finding something to ride
on or in. One young corres
pondent dashed into the middle
of the stret, dragged a Mexican
SSEaSISayan
Peon from a burro, bought the
burro, saddle and bridle outright
for 50 pesos and started off a
long the asphalt pavement, in
entirely the wrong direction.
Two very plump English war
correspondents hired a coach and
ordered the driver to take them
to the water works. He took
them to the edge of the town,
got stuck in the sand and
|brought the pair back in the ev
ening, after they had ridden
; four miles. There was one
party of real war correspond
ents—chaps who have been in
wars from Russia to Montene
gro—who were caught napping,
not yet having secured horses.
They rode on a street car to the
edge of town and then started to
walk the rest of the way in the
broiling sun. They had plenty
of ginger and energy and enthu
siasm and bravery—three of
the seven carried huge revolv
ers—and everthing was all
right about the expedition, ex
cept that they went in exactly
the . wrong direction. They
started out at noon, saw some
federals through a field glass
at 3 o’clock, at the same hour
turned back for Vera Cruz and
'reached the city again eager to
buy cold cheam for sunburns.
Seven photographers seized a
handcar and pumped themselves
fifteen miles along the narrow
gauge railroad, five miles into
the Mexican lines. As soon as
they saw Mexican federals they
pumped themselves back again,
and reacnea tne American lines
exhausted. Nobody could find
the waterworks, in time to see
the rumpus. True, very late in
the afternoon one war corres
pondent on a mule, who had lost
his way, wound up, by accident,
at the water works and got the
story of what happened, first
hand, from some of the soldiers
who had witnessed the affair.
He got back to town about 9 in
the evening and dashed madly
to the cable office, only to learn
that every correspondent in town
had heard the story and put it
on the cable many hours before
It had all been a matter of field
wireless. General Funston, and
his staff officers, had been inj
constant communication with
the forces near the waterworks
and a few correspondents who
had been forced to stay, broken
hearted with disappointment at
headquarters, were handed the
story on a silver tray, as it were,
hours before the war corres
pondents who had “gone to the
front” could get back and find
out that there hadn’t been a bat
tle and that the Mexicans had
withdrawn.

__
No need to leave Newport to
hunt up proof, because you have
it here at home. The straight
forward statement of a Newport
resident like that given below,
bears an interest for every man,
woman or child here in Newport,
Mrs. A. Bullard, Laurel &
Sixth Sts., Newport, says: “I
don’t mind giving Doan’s Kid
ney Pills a public endorsement.
I had occasion to use a kidney
medicine not long ago and on
taking Doan's Kidney Pills, I
found prompt relief. I used
about four boxes in all, getting
them from Sevens’ Drug Store.
Since taking Doan’s Kidney Pills
I haven’t noticed any signs of
kidney trouble. There can be no
doubt that Doan’s Kidney Pills
will bring satisfactory results
if given a thorough trial.”
Price 50c at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy
—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the
same that Mrs- Bullard had!
