RECORD IS A PROUD ONE First to Fight 8panlards In Cuba, Took Prominent Part In Relleving Em- bassies in Pekin—S8ervice In Mexico. By GEORGE CLINTON. ‘Washington.—The reported requesc from the American minister at the City of Mexico for marines to guard the legation there in case that the up- rising against the president of Mexico should endanger the lives of Amerl- cans, accentuates the fact that the ma- rines of the United States service al- most always have been the first of the American armed forces to be call- ed on for service in case that this country is threatened with trouble abroad. “Tell it to the Marines” is an old saying and the implication in it is that the marines will belfsve anything and there 18 also sometLing of a sneer in the saying. This “remark of re- proach” is not nearly one, for the sail- ors who originated it only meant to intimate that the marines did not know anything sbout sailing a ship. No sailor has ever contended that the marine is not a good fighter and “all for the colors.” The American marines had the first fight with the Spaniards in Cuba. They were sent into China at the time that the embassies were beleaguered in 1900 and at the Battle of Tientsin the marines lost heavily. They have been landed in Mexico before this and in several of the South American countries and always have they done good service. Years ago over in Korea the marines of this government fought and fought well. The record of the marines ig a long one and an honorable one. General George F. Elliott of the ma- rine corps years ago with 21 marines and 29 sailors made a hurry-up march from Chemulpo to Seoul in Korea In order to protect the American consu- late and the missionaries at that place’ during the war between China and Ja- pan. At that time Elliott was a leu- tenant attached to the U. S. S. Balth more. News came to the ‘ship that the Koreans were ralsing the ecry “Korea for the Koreans” and were about to massacre all the foreigners at the Korean capital. Admiral Me- Nair ordered Elliott and his little com- mand to take up a “double time” across country to save the mission- rries. A Hazardous Trip, It is probable that few military bod- fes were ever asked to engage in such a trip as that turned out to be. It waa 50 hot that the marines turned the tables and told the sailors that their belt bucklés melted in the sun. Near- ly the whole line of the march was through submerged rice flelds, the men being up to their knees in water half the time, with their footsteps clogged by the plant roots and stems. Under these conditions they made pace at the rate of five miles an hour, and they reached their destination in time to perform the service for which the call for the march had been is- sued. General Elliott has seen service in all sorts of climatic conditions. He was assigned to the Alllance for her cruise to the Arctic years ago, and on the voyage the ship’s crew reached a northern point of 80 degrees and 10 minutes, the record up to that time. Tt was immediately upon his return from the Arctic that Elliott was order- ed to the tropics, and he saw fighting in Panama, which was then in the hands of the revolutionary forces. During this Panama service the rev- olutionists made an attempt to blow Elliott and his command off the face of the isthmus with dynamite. Blliott and a private of marines caught the man hired to explode the stuff just as he was about to light the fuse. It was Pperhaps a narrower escape than any which the general ever had, and his narrow escapes besprinkle plentifully bis record. - Natlonal Press Club. The National Press Olub of Wash- inugten wants the newspaper men of the, country to understand that the club is' just' what its name suggests, national in its scope. It is true that active membership is confined to working newspaper men in the capi- tal city, correspondents and members of the staffs of the local papers, but non-resident membership is open to every legitimate newspaper man in the United States who properly can be vouched for and whose newspaper standing can undergo the test of the board of governors. Any newspaper man in the United States who would like to become a non-resident mem- ber of the National Press club can get such Information as he needs by ad- dressing the secretary of the club. The National Press club today Is en- tirely out of debt. It had a bond burn- ing entertainment recently and the flames of the fire in the big open fire- place in the main gathering room lick. ed up the last evidences of the club’s indebtedness. Ladies’ day ‘will soon be recognized by the membership. Last year Madame Sara Bernhardt was the chief visiting guest of the day.
