ALL HAD TRAGIC HISTORY C^.oJina the Lsstcf o Quartet of Snips That Seemed to Be DoorneJ to Misfortune. "The sinking ol' the Carolina by a Gorman U-boat ro:n< ,-od tho last of a quartet of ships that have had a trajde history," remarked JJrooks Amiss .?f Baltimore, a former resident of Wash* Ington. nt the Will aril. according to tho Washington Post. "The Carolina was formerly the Grand Duchess, built l*or the Plant line in 1S9G. She made her first trip from Boston to Halifax and' two years later she was taken over by the government to be used as transport in the Spanish-American war. Her maiden voyage in the transport service was from Charleston. S. carrying a regiment of Wisconsin troops and high army officers to I'orto r R<to. ? "General Miles a short time before' had been placed in command of the American army and he left Washington with members of his staff early in July. At Charleston General Miles ' went on board the Yale, which had been the City of Paris of the American line. He left Gen. Roy Stone of his' staff at Charleston to recruit a gang of laborers for the army in Porto jRico. General Miles proceeded to Cuba on the Yale and after staying there a few days went to Guanica on the southern coast of Porto Rico. It : Ten's whilp wnc lv;n<r in tho wnnrlor. . ful little harbor of Ouanica on board the Cherokee, the Yale being too large ; to enter the harbor, that he was joined by members of his staff who had sailed 1 on the Grand Duchess. The Cherokee, ' another Plant liner, took the staff to \ Ponce, and among others on that ves- ] sel was the late Richard Harding Da-: \ vis, who had sailed from Cuba on a dispatch boat. The Cherokee arrived oft' Ponce the next morning to find that ^ the city had been taken the previous ] day by an ensign of the navy in a dis- J patch yacht. ' "A fp\V flnvs lntor the nrntnr>nl nnrl- 1 inc tho war was declared and most of 1 the members of the Miles party sailed ? back for the States on the Obdara, a transport that had been purchased * ^froTn the Holland-American line. v ^ "The curious part of the thinz is 1 " Yale was sunk in some man- 1 ' as- ; t^ie Obdam ran ashore off the 1 ' coasfT" Cuba while in the transport 1 servir** * ^ie Cherokee foundered some- * wfcer*- Jx ' ^e Atlantic and now the ( Grand- 'ie5?s> rechristened the Caro- 1 KnaV has >en s-CDt t0 the bottom by I *?' ?

For several lays we were at a large rest camp o collect the fragments of our regrr.ent arid to be equipped, then we noved into the area where we ar" o remain for some time. 'Until yes. erdav 1 was quartered with the staff r. one of the most beautiful chataux that T have ever seen. Tt is the !ome of a nobleman who happened tc >e on leave from the front.

Air raids are the lost common things we have now. An Air Raid. "Our first raid occurred while wo 'ere at the chantean and. a^ a first rnerience, if was most satisfactory. ire had all the thrills with very little anger. 7 was undressing about leven-thirty when one cf the officers Tiled to me that a raid was on. We Irrrhed out <?n the roof of a wing f the chateau and. sure enough* a ie show was on. The particular ob ctive at that time wa3 a town some ' miles from where we were, so wo could see the whole thing to ad-antage, both the offensive and tensive features. The raid had been i progress f^r sometime when the :>bleman asked ns to join him in the irk. which we did and he explained le whole thing to us. The defensive ensures which ar? taken are "most aborate. The raid was not without ; p musing features. While we were fbe nark a machine came directly "T -wherp we were.
