Just as the front nihk a llassogawa's
brigade was closing in upon Shoju a Jap-
snes shell exploded inside the northern
fort..and with a groan and shock that
stopped the battle for a moment the shells
for the heavy guns which were piled on
the floor of the fort unprotected by trav-
erses blew up.
The garrison scrambled out over the
hilltops, and Hossagawn’s men came
sweeping around the rough mountain to

That ended all hope of defending the
seven forts. The Chinese fled along the
ridge and down the valley roads. Has-

the plateau above the drill grounds and
knelt in a semicircle. sending volley upon
volley across the stream against the rifle

through a sheltered road to a wall on the
southern side of the drill grounds. For
in minutes then thres skirmish lines kept
upadre. and the plucky Chinamenwere
driven from the position.
Finally a small column. covered by the
skirmishers. advanced acro- the bridge
and marched along the road leading to
the town.
At the urns time Harshal Oynmacr»
tiered the reserve center to move down the
valley. and thousands of them came pour-
