A True Story of the Philippines
Col. Win U Powell, in Hrooklyn Eairlc.
Have you ever been a soldier?
No? Then you do not realize
what comforts are, though you
sit bv \our cozy fireside, with the
partner ot your bosom near you ;
nr perhaps it may be an aged
mother, with her white hands
folded complacently across her
lap, occasionally casting a loving
glance at you, as you sit reading
the evening paper. Conveniences
you never had. You have not
enjoyed the great exceptional
luxuries which, once in a lifetime,
perhaps, bless a limited number
of men. H >w sad that you have
permitted to pass unimnroved
your opportunity of partaking ol
all tiie delicacies ot a soldier's
lite.
If yon had over heen a soldier,
r would recall the past ; once
more be hunsiry and eat ; once
more tired and rest ; once more
thirsty and drink ; once more cold
and wet, then sil by tin? roaring
camp fire and feci comfort creep
over you ; once more to lie on
the field of belt tie, bathed in
blood, and wait lor death, or for
comrades to cat her you in. Is i'
not pleasant '{
Eating is more than a conven
it ;. to t : wi lier ; it i a comfort
which rises almost to the height
of a consolation. The delights ot
knowing .just what your bill ol
lare will be for esich meal?
bacon, coffee and hard bread lor
breakfast.; eoll'ec, hard bread and
baeon lor dinner; arid hard br ad
bacon and cofi'-e f >r supper?yon
can never appreciate. And then
to think of how many thousands!
of miles you have to travel to
obtain these luxuries. la not
the lib? worth livinu ?
\ And fo you wi-h to hear some
/ thing of my poMkt'.s life? Well,)

ev? rv par:molar. It is ofll.dally
eut.en-it upon Aimv records. Just 1
wait until I liirht my pipe. Will'

mi<ht of all 1 his luxury? Yes. I

and with the golden aureole of a
prospective hero urging me on, I
enlisted. I was only a private,
with the bitter experience ol
having left a comfortable home,
a fond mother, a pretty sweet
heart, and a good position, to go
far across the water, to battle for
my country. 1 found delight in
the rough sea voyage, and did not
fail to do my duty beneath the
burning sun of the tropics. I did
not succumb to the deadly miasI
ma of the jungles, nor was 1 ever
effected by the steady downpour
I of the sheet of rain that fell in
those far away islands.
After two or three successful
contacts with the Filipinos, we
had settled down into a hum drum
| lend of camp life, and were lying
near C'apas, in northern Luzon,
j I had tired of the everlasting
ration, and so one day iu Novem
her, 185)1*, I, in company with
j private T?, C and L, armed with
hir rillet and ca.tridge belts, left
' tap and pr<?e cded to a barrio,
' seme two and a half miles to the
J s mtheast, for the purp >so < ! elab
| orating our diet by t fie purchase
ol some chickens from the natives
| As it was not altogether sate
totraNel any great viistanco from
our command, we Kept our e,\e?
open as to our surroundings. We
had not gone very far, however,
when we discovered a party of
armed men in the edge of the
wood near us, and at about the
same moment we were fired on
by t betn. Did you ever hear
a lot of bullets whistle as
they flew by you? No? Well,
take my word for it, the music is
not pleasant to the ear. I have
olten heard music that was more
agreeable on the vaudeville stage.
Wo returned the lireot our neighbors
and started to retreat. Then
we suddenly perceived that our
retreat had been out off by an
| other party, while the enemy,
fifty or sixty in number, began
closing in 011 us from all sides,
firing as they came.
We returned in kind the com
pliments they extended to us until
they came quite close, when
j Private B lei 1 to the ground with
a shot in his breast, apparently
mortally wounded. In the meantime
the enemy had suffered from
our lire. Three of their number
j had been killed and lour wounded.
This incensed them and they
rushed upon us furiously, evidently
with the determination <f
| killing us at once. Seeing that
further resistance was hopeless,
we surrendered, notwithstanding
I .vhich one of our captors approached
close tnoiigh to strike
one of our number a crushing
, blow on the head wpli the butt

, and over faint trails we were
pressed onward toward Mount
, Arayat, where our guards joined
1 a main body. There we found
, Sergeant l*? and Private N?
of the ?th United States Infani
try, who were being held as prisoners
of war. Then came weary
marches, in which we were almost
scorched with the intense
heat of the day and became chilled
to the marrow from the cold
at night when we halted.
We wondered among curse1 ves
as to what they would do with
us, for they heaped upon us all
kindR of abuse, and we were often
told that we were to be killed
lor our stubborn defense. One
of their favorite amusements was
to step up and present cocked
revolvers, and snap t'^tn in our
faces, we never knowing at the
time but that they were loaded. ,
To add to the terror which these
actions would inspire a Macoabee'
scout, who had been captured!
along with Serireanl P , had
his throat cut before our eyes,

These cruelties were partici |

guards, etc., except one comj
mandante, who had hceti in coiii-j
I mand of the party which hud ruptured
us, and who had prevented
our being hilled on the spot at'
the time. Ho complim uited us

against vastly superior numbers.
Gen. Aguino, whom we saw often,
was generally Very bar h. out he
sometimes give us cigarettes, and
held conversa'i >11 with us.
Our marches were terrible.
W e were ted s dely on i ire. <Ju 1 \

then three spoonful i of salmon
were issued to tl.r five f us. As

while we were at Oarnansi, iti the
midst of about a thousand insurgents,
we heard shots exchanged
with the outposts. Never was
the whiz ol bullets more welcome
to a soldier's ear. Shortly afterward
they became so frequent
that our hopes of reliel were I
raised to the highest pitch, be-!
.cause we were satisfied that our!
iriends were near. But, alas!
for the delusion. As the attack
increased, we were ta!*en out and
lined up by Gen. Aguino himself.
Then nine Filipinos were brought j
out and placed in iine lacing u> j
at some thirty paces, with loaded
rifles. I)M you ever lnok mjii.uvly
into the muzzle of a rifle,
knowing that death was lurking
there? All, my friend, all the

Well, as the firing continued!
to grow heavier, we were ordered
to kneel, and all obeyed hut the
sergeant, lie refused to do so
and stood up as straight as a
soldier on parade. (Ion. Aquino
i gave the order f?? the firing parly,
and as I ho command '-Fire!"
j was given I simply lmd time to
think "(lod bless my poor
