Ona feels an rupee 1ml udDMi over ths men who died with Oscar F. Miller on Killer hill, and over those who were falling In front of the Baumy woods at the same time. There was western Im petuosity In the way the 361st and 164th battalions hurried through the woods after noon of the 23th and tried to break through the next German line. Tired soldiers, and hungry, looked on ahead to ridges specked with machine guns, to thickets iwirnlm with snipers, to wooded hills farther back alive with artillery. They had not had fighting like this on Thursday and Friday: thia trial of (Saturday afternoon. September U. third day of the battle, waa hardest to date because of the concentration of fire on a much lesser area. Except before Epinonvllle there had been room to maneuver before. It waa a thicker thins they were now walking Into, but aa Major Miller had put it aa he lay mortally wounded. "We're coins on through." Taewsaa Maa Makes Saertftea. Sergeant Charles Huckaba of com pany 1, lst. Tacoma. was one of the killed. Just before noon Huckaba said to Private Lara Anderson of company I. "I don't know what's the matter with me: I'm so scared and nervous today.- The writer has steadily re fused to believe In presentiments, and yet over and over again Slst men about to die seemed to have them. There were even men who tried to giveaway their possessions on the day they were killed. Huckaba hurried on forward, how ever, with his platoon. He waa In that rapid advance with the major to the bottom of Miller hilL He went on tip to the top and down the far side, tut could not get up the next ridge. Mi'ler waa stricken. Everywhere men were retiring up Miller bill again. Huckaba waa part way up and waa In a shell hole, when a fragment struck the side of bis head. Private Roderick McLen nan of Casper. Wyo.. took hold of his body, which waa In a crouching posi tion, but found no signs of life. Two other company I men pulled him out of the hole to sea If he could be helped; but ha could not; so they lay him down on tha bank and went on their way. Harry Beaaaaaa Eager Fighter. Harry Seamana of company I waa an eager fighter in the Miller hill charge. He was a Washington boy from Orting. He came up to the hole in which Cor poral Claude L, McDermott of Doug las Wyo.. was lying, and the corporal aald. Seamans. you'd better lie down. Peaman replied. "I'm going to get some of the devils., or they'll have to get me" always ,. dangerous aoldier who must get or be got..

Kleven days later Asima kopouloa died at the edge of a .thicket on its. Corporal John Harrison Pierce, a Bandon. Or., man. also of company 1. waa lying flat when tha order came to retire, about :lu o'clock. It looked as If. like the others, he waa just escaping the worst of the storm. The rest started back. Private Allanro shook him and said they were moving, but could get no response. Many Meat Are Weaaded. I company had -already lost Salter and Jensen In the forenoon. It had many men wounded on Miller hilL Many still lay there with Huckaba. Seamana and Pierce when the retire ment came: but that night exhausted men went out in a driving rain and brought them in. One of the leaders was a college professor of redoubtable spirit. He was Sergeant Howard Wight, who teaches economic xoology at Oregon Agricultural college. Corval- lia Profesnor Wight has a decoration for Ms work that nlrht. which he will behind. But tha major had been fa tally wounded and tha retirement waa on and a private named. Harry Poggensee of Auburn. Wash., said to Larsen. "We might as well go back while the rest are.- About all the L men were gone by this time except Poggensee. Larsen. Lieutenant Coats, Private Wrolf Olson and the men who were wounded. Lara Larsca Fearless. One of these wounded men lay in a thicket in pain. (There were two thickets Just beyond ' Miller hill). Tha man waa Stephen R. Weber, a private. and when Coats called to know who lay in the brush, be railed back Weber." So the officer said to Olson, "Help me bandage this wounded man' and Larsen joined ' in on his own aa count, instead of going back over the hill to shelter. There was not much fear in Lars Larsen. He said to Poggensee on the 2th. Just aa the drive began, "I don't want to be captured by any Hun. I'll eght to the last"; and here he waa staying behind of his own- volition, with the company gone, making three on a Job that tiro could have done all becausa he was that sort of stuff of which list men were made. The lieutenant waa on ona aide of Weber; Larsen was on the other. A Ger man battery sought out the thicket. The lieutenant'a helmet waa cut. but he waa not injured. Weber was wounded again, and was hard hit, but recovered. Lar sen waa atruck in the face. He felt forward dead, over the man he was helping. Bersea Haddle Together. Corporal Clarence O. Johnson of com pany L, whose father lived at HIS Twenty-first avenue. South Seattle, died in the Miller Hill charge. Men tend to huddle together aometimes In battle as If numbers were a protection instead of a menace. Some L men were grouped and Lieutenant Coats told them to scatter, but before they could do so, a shell lit am org them, killed Johnson Instantly, wounded another and shell- shocked the third. Johnson is one of the reasons why the writer discredits presentiments. He was very optimistic before he went in or pretended to be: he was sure he'd come out. Good fighter Johnson. "He was ona of the best line men in com pany L, He was alwaya anxious to go out and ret a Hun." aald Sergeant James Poole. This man Poole, whose home is at 208 Occident street, Portland, was a fine type of soldier, being one of sev eral great non-coma in company L, William Swenn waa a Finn in com pany L, drafted from Washington. He waa hit above the ear by h. e.. but waa not much Injured. He was glad, in fact, that hia hurt was so slight, and said he would be all right in a few days. He waa taken back to a dressing station on the south aide of Clerges woods, into which there fell the next morning a shell. Sween waa killed by the shell. Third Battallea Escapes. No Sd battalion company escaped In the Miller Hill charge. There waa the aad case of Krlppner of M. Krlpp- ner also cams from Seattle. As the company waa crossing tha opening be tween Clerges and Baulny woods, 1 knew she never had baked a cake and I was doubtful But I told her to go ahead. "She got my treasured -Royal Cook Book, my can of Royal Baking Pow der and all the fixings and sailed in.

Krlppner waa hit In the face and the body. The men of M then went on into the charge. That evening, after the withdrawal. Private Morris Berry of :C42 East 49th street. Portland, stopped by him. Krlppner called him by name and told him he had no chance to live. The quicker I die, the better I'm off," he told Berry. The Portlander put on a first aid pack, but the wounds were so many he could not do much. About 1 P. M. a party carried him back, the party Included a private named Talter W. Carroll of company M. who waa wounded a day or so later. ' "For God's sake, boys," Krlppner had said, "can't you get me soma help?" So they carried him back on a Herman about shelter tents. He died at 11 o'clock. Near by William Krlppner was Pri vate Robert McCutchen of company M, a Big Bend soldier from Reardan. The boya found McCutchen when they re tired. Being dead, he was spared Krlp pner's seven hours misery. Woaderfal Charge Recalled. Thua died the 91st men In the Miller Hill .charge. There were others than those described, who came up In the afternoon, went up onto Miller Hill in the charge, went on beyond, some of them, and did not come back. Corporal Kenna P. Plowman was one. He was of headquarters company. He was burled on top of the bill about a week later by Private Herman Vaadanen, 302 South Main Street, Butte, a headquar ters pioneer, and by others. Between and 5 o clock, four German prisoners were coming back under the guns of two Diet men, and Corporal Plowman stuck up their hands and Just I searched them. A UttJe later he went to the right of the skirmish line of com. pany L and was hit in the chest and stomach by a machine gun burst, four or five times. . He was from Caldwell, Idaho, rural route 1. The 3d battalion fell back. Dark ness was near. The wonderful charge was doubtless not futile. It had cleared out the nests from the Miller HU1 ridge. had gained the reverse slope ' of the ridge as a shelter for pits, and had es tablished the division on the right wing of the line north o Clerges .and. Baulny woods, from which It never withdrew and from which on the following day it made the great charge upon Gesnes. And it shook German morale. There are signs that during the night of the 28th, field pieces moved back, that In fantrymen moved back, that only the his men were gone, the charge was re pulsed, but who says that it did not pay aa war pays?
