General Gnidl'e Csecho-Slovaks fight-
ing their way through 2,600 miles of
hostile territory furnishes a tale no
less thrilling than that related or Cor-
tez' drive from Vera Cruz to the an
clent Aztec capital in the sixteenth
century. Like his illustrious predecea-
sor. he saw‘his forces grow as his suc-
cesses multiplied, but his successes,
also like those of the adventurous Span-
iard, were due to his unflagging cour-
age and ingenious tactics and to the
loyalty of his men.
When the order came from Perograd
counter-mending the permission given
for the free movement of the Czecho-
Slovaks toward Vladivostok. it found
them Silll‘ll. out in a thin line front the
Volga. to \ladi‘-oslok. A 12-day truce
following the first. serious clash at
li‘kutsk, when the ilolsheviki under-
took tu disarm a trainload of Fuchs,
applied only to Eastern sum-i2. and
was utilized by Gaida‘s men to Lrl a
running start for the plunge thiougll

ter his policy appears to have been to
constantly prepare and execute some.
new surprisehuntli the enemy was in
such a slate of" nerves that the. ap.
proach of a body of Ult’choslovakfi, no
matter lit-u le-ill. was likely to throw
him into a panic.
Assisted L, t‘ossacks and by Czechs
from t‘lliliabinak, Colonel Kadlets,
then commander of the Czech forces
west of Irkutsk, fought his way west
to Omsk, taking towns en route. He
improved the time during the armis-
tice to clean up tile line westward to
the Urals.
Meantime ,with resumption of bets-
tiltties to the eastward the (leech-Sio-
vak forces between Kraunoyank and
irkutsk found themselves hard press-
ed and near to the end of their re-
sources. Kndlets doubled back our
ward and by a series of flanking move
menta, failing upon the Boiebcvfki in
the night, unimpeded them. time after
time. in this 'way he pushed through
'to the.rehef of his mntrym at
Knenoyarek and Irkutsk.
From lrkutsk to the southernth
point of Lake Baikal there are forty-
one tunnels. it was the Czeche‘ aim
to clear out the Bolshevlki without
giving them time to blow up these tun-
nels and. to that end, they started I
smell contingent overland to surprise
the Bolshevikl beyond the series of
tunnels. These men marched four
days under greatest difficulties. They
became so pressed for food supplies
that. they had to eat their horses. But
they accomplished their object. They
attacked the Bolshevikl in the middle
of the night. captured their machine
guns and started them northward in
disorder. The Bolehevtkt “wooded
in blowing up one tunnel the last one
in the series.
The Czechs and their Russian allies
now had a clear track to the southern
extremity of the lake, to a village
named Slujinnkn, where the blocked
tunnel presented a serious obstacle to
further progress. They drugged a few
light guns ever the ridge. and marched
several contingeuis of troops around
the obstruction only to find the Bolshe-
vlkl massed in force some twenty
miles beyond. The Czechs and Rus-
einns suti’emd heavy losses in the
fighting beta and were forced back to
within a few miles of the tunnel.
Meantime the (‘zechs had cleared
the tunnel s'ufilciently to pass troops
through. on foot. General Guide. who
had succeeded Colonel Kudicts in
command. caused decoy messages to
fall into the enemy's hands, begging
jfor help and declaring that the tunnel
was hopelessly blocked and he in des-
perate straits. surrounded and at the
end of his resources. The Bolsheviki
thereupon moved southward, in high
,spirits. throwing aside all caution.
Bands played and their progress was
in the nature of n triumphal march.
A few miles from the tunnel they
ran into an ambush which completely
demoralizeu them. Machine guns rak-
ed them born the hillsides and field
guns shelled them front and rear.
tattered remnant of the Bolshevik
army fled northward with the. few
trains they were able to save.

HARTFORD, Nov. 9.—Willlam A.
Malbone, 52, is dead and Samuel J.
Brown is dying as a result of a gun
fight between the two men at a lonely
spot along the West Hartford boule-
vard late yesterday. At a hospital last
night Browp admitted he killed Mal-
bone. He said Malbone had been pay-
ing annoying attentions to Mrs. Brown
and that he went to the guard house,
where Malbone was employed by the
Hartford Water Works, and asked him
to cease his attentions. An argument
ensued and Melbone fired the first shot
he said. Five other, diets were fired.
Capt. Robert P. Hurley. of the state
police and other officers investigated.
, Malbone leaves a wife and a max.
ried daughter. He was well-known in
Hartford and was a 32d degree Mason

over there.
:‘I wonder if he is cold tonight." the mother
said. “I Wonder if he has a place to warm him-
self and dry his clothes; and something good to
cut.”
“What: wouldn't I
give to be with him.” she
said and we were silentwknowing her heart.
But I thought of the Soldiers of Fricndlincss
