CAIIIO, Egypt, May 20. "Five

turn at tlio 'unspeakable Turk and
, IIioro arc tlio only worda to describe
It rivedayHof hdllj"
Tho ejaculation sot tlio Now Zea
land "non-com" back on tlio pillows
gasping for breath and a nurse hur

pledgo not to excite him won per

lie waR a top nergennt on duty as
muse finder for his Australian refi

him In the back as ho waB carrying
it wounded comrade to safety.
Kveryono remembers tlio terrific
slaughter on the western front In
Kuropo during the first few months
of tho war. Well, add the well known
methods of tho Turk to thin nnd you
S have an Idea of what tho Australian!)
who formed tho landing forces for
tho bombarding fleet In the Darda
nelles had to go through.
"I had been watching tho landing
of the first detachment through
field glasses," said the sergeant.
"Sonio whlto boats on the bench and
some brown figures sadly still on the
gray sand, the green grass nnd a till
ed field over which advanced lines
of our attacking forco, formed tho
foreground. It was like a marvelous
cinematograph (moving picture).
Steep hills, covered with dense shrub
bery, over which cottonwood puffs
of shrapnel npepared and disappear
ed formed tho background.

"Tow Is It llko over there?" we
nsked as our destroyer came along
side with Its string of boats.
"Pretty hot, boy," answered a smlL
Jng old gunner.
"And ho was right. Straight for
tho beach wo ran, to the foot of the
hill (lube Tope, all of us laying flat
In tho iboats smiling sickly smiles
nt each other, while the bullets pur
red and whistled over and around
lis. The sharp pointed bullet 'meows'
like a motherless kitten as It passes.
"Then camo tho tlmo for us to wnde
nnd swim as tho destroyer had gone
ns closo to the beach as possible with
Its tows. Wo Jumped, holding our
rifles high and reached tho shore.
"I had often wondered how one
would feel going Into a tight corner
for tho first tlmo, and thon I knew.
It was as If someono had given mo a
hlow In the stomach with the flat sldo
of a heavy spade. Later, however,
enmo a sense of elation.
"Reinforcements at the double
rjulck on the left," bellowed an offi
cer through a megaphone, and falling
in, we scrambled up the hill to the
firing line. In an Instant wo wero
In the midst of dead Turks, bayonet
ed, scattered ammunition and rifles,
nnd millions of files. A terrific sun
nnd purring bullets overhead and hot
oands and dead Turks under feet,
"Wounded on their way back pass
ed us, cheerfully saying, 'It's hot
ns hell up there.'
"Over a hill wo went, sliding, scrap
tng, rolling Into the gully below. At
tho bottom I saw a wounded man
grinning hideously with his shatter
ed mouth. 'Hot It where tho chicken
got the ax," he wheezed and faint
ed as the stretcher bearers came up.
Dying Mini's Last Shot
"Reaching the firing line I got
on the Job finding ranges. With my
powerful telescope I could see the
Turks retiring. Still the wounded

of Information and profanity,
"Then right near me things began
to happen, I think a Turk sniper
saw my range finder. Two bullets
lobbed Into tho trench parapet and
tho man next to me stood straight
tip and fell hark over my legs.
'Maflsh,' he said, quaintly, the Arabic
for finished, and then more slowly,
'.Money-belt missus and kids dirty

"Then a strange thins happened.
Dying, shattered beyond recognition,
he rose to his knee and dragged his
rifle to the parapet. With a weak
finger he took shaky aim at the sky
ninl flrott his last shot. t collapse
finally In the bottom of the trench.
"Hot our ran Re,' said an Austral-
tan aconlj!l
tie target practice.' He placed u
dead man's hat on tho parapet and
five 'bullets found It In an Instnnt.
"Then we spotted our snipor. Two
men crawled out through the bushes.
All unconscious the Turk continued
his rifle practice until two shots rang
out nnd our pair of heroes appeared
on our left waving the sniper's hat
their equivalent for n scalp. After
that wo hnd comparative peace.
"Machine guns Rtnrtcd to purr and
above soared a seaplane from our
fleet. The Turks lobbed some shrap
nel nt tho airmen but they escnped
nnd turned to report the rnnge.
Klftceu-Incli Naval Guns Open Up.
"The nnvnl shell screnmed over our
heads to explode amidst the Turks.
The fi-lnch batteries opened up and
the air was filled with sound. Then
the 15-lnchers opened up with their
terrific boom nnd we tore up our
'first-aid' bandages to stuff our ears.
For three hourH the ennnonndo con
tinued and nt last we had gained
our footing, but at a terrific cost.
At least a mile square of the Gal
llpoll iHmlnsuln was ours!
"As night came the stretcher-benr-ers
tolled with their sad loads. Tho
doctors tolled like machines, probing,
washing, bandaging. Often tho hurts
wero beyond aid nnd frequently a
handkerchief covered tho face of
some man I had known an a cheer
ful fun maker aboard tho transport.
"The brigadier general was send
ing off innumerable messages cool,
ublqitltoouH nnd buslnesB-Uko ho In
spired others to emulate him. Three
wireless stations spring up suddenly
and the buzzing sparks told tho fleet
where to send their screaming mis
siles. Troops and supplies continued
to land. It didn't seem llko war
more llko a hugo construction camp.
"On our left along tho beach about
half a mile, u boat, flunk In tho surf,
rocked uneasily. With tho aid of a
glass I could see Its freight. Sitting
upright wero at leaBt eight dend men,
and on the beach another 20. A
sartor, distinguishable by his whlto
enp cover, lay In an nttltudo strange
ly llfelllo, his chin resting on his
hand, hie face turned to our position.
"Tho next afternoon I casually
turned my glasses on the pathetic
group, and saw' that the sailor was
now lying on his back with hlB fnco
to tho sky. There was no mlntako;
ho had been alive, and perhaps' even
now nfter lying there nearly 3(1 hours
he wr still alive. I was destined to
get yet another thrill. In the center
of the henp on tho beach there was
some movement.

".And then I miw distinctly a khaki
enp waving wcftkly, nnd presently n
man detached himself from tho group
nnd hobbled slowly towards us along
tlio bench. Immediately the snipers
started t.frcsh.
"Four other men and myself mndo
of; along the bench to moet tho sad
figure, winch by this time had col-
lapsed. Ten yards out from our
trench wo drew fire, nnd tho bullets
whispered confidently 'Duck,' nnd as
they tonercd tho water or hit the
stones by our feet, 'Run llko tho
devil!' I personally cut out tho first
hundred yards In, well under 10 sec
onds, and although my style might
have boon rngged, It was good enough
and got me to a small sandy knoll
where l was ahlo to talk to tho man.
" 'There wore four others still alive
out there,' ho said, 'and last night
there wero eight, but It was cold,
and they'd had no water or food, and
couldn't last It out,' That was all.
"Wo got him In slowly, and after
wards the others, but not until one
of tho warships had dealt with tho
snipers. I.uter we burled all tho
others,
