Scott & Bowne, 'LIFE OF GENERAL PERSHING CHAPTER XII. (Copyright, 1918, by William Fox) 1 [ April, 1903, one tribe of the not been conquered hy Captain Persh- ing in the district controlled by Fort | Vicars on the Island of Mindanao This tribe, ruled by the Sultan of An- parugano, was in the Taraca count on the eastern shore of Lake Lanao. It was farthest removed from the in- fluence of civilization, and its mem- bers firnly believe they were more than a match for the American forces. There had been many reports of disturbances in this part of the dis~ trict, and Captain Pershing resolved | to teach the agitators a lesson which they would not soom forget. He | marched upon Lake Lanao with the | greater part of his force. There was no chance of his sur- prising the enemy. Their scouts could follow closely the American force : it cut its way through the dense| jungle with no danger of being ob- | served. Any American force that| moved through the Philippine jungle | did so with the knowledge that at any time a bolo, hurled by a native, might whistle through the air. After driving off several scattered attacks in the jungle Pershing ar- rived at Lake Lanao, where he found the enemy in force. On April 10 he | cleaned out the town of Bacolod by a heroic charge against the native It was a case of bayonets in the hands | of his soldiers against the krisses of the Moros. The stamina of the white race was predominant, but the battie was so flerce that very few natives | reaped with the news to their sultan. Making his way around the lake Captain Pershing fought a decisive battle with the entire force of the Sultan -of Anparugano on the east ghore of Lake Lanao and utterly de- feated him—115 Moros were killed and seven woundell e & Making forced ‘marches, Pershing hastened to the other strongholds of the natives and 'in a short time had captured ten forts which occupied formidable positions on the Tarac River. Thesc he dismantled, and re- turned to Fort Vicars with the satis- faction of having pacified for the first time the Tasaca region of the Island of Mindanao. He was services by and on May 11, 1903, secretary of war, cabled: “Express| to Captain Pershing and officers and men under his command the thanks of the War Department for their able and effective accom- plishment of a difficult and import- ant task.” Soon afterward Pershing was ap- pointed to ihe general staff of the army and ordered to Washington, in recoghition of his notable services in the Philippines. This new post was one much sought after by army offi- cers. On Sept. 16, 1904 he was selected by the chief of staff to take a coyrse of instruction in higher maneuvers at the Army War College in Wash- ington. This course was for the ben- efit of officers who were considered especially efficient in the art of war, and was usually preliminary to ad- vancement to an impoitant post. It may be worthy of note, particu- larly in view of later events, that about the time Pershipg was sta- tioned at the Army War College the believing that he could im- Moros who had congratulated for these his commanding officer, Elihu Root, SCOTTS EMULSION there remained only | ‘the long edges of the mask; tt’s helps solve the problem Bloomfield, N. J. 1823 press this country with the military tness of Germany, presented to United States government a | bronze statue of his warlike ancestor, derick the Great. This statue was | accepted by the nation and a place | was found for it at the Army War | College---at the point where the Ana- cost River joins the Potomac. Within the past few months this statue has been torn down, relegat- cd to a basement, and may be turned | into ammunition for use against the kaiser. It is doubtful if the future commander of the American forces against the Emperor of Germany found this tribute to Teutonic autoc- racy and militarism any inspiration in his work About the time of his appointment to the Army War College President Roosevelt, in the course of a mes- sage to congress spoke highly of Cap- tain Pershing's exploits in the Phil- ippines. That day is a memorable one with Pershing. In the evening he received an invitation to dinner from Miss Millard, daughter of Sen- ator Millard of Nebraska, who was prominent in Washington society. He accepted, little thinking that this dinner was to change the whole course of his life. He found that he was expected to take in a Miss Frances H. Warren. He knew Senator Warren of Wyo- ming, who was on the committee on military affairs and surmised that this was his daughter. He found in Miss Warren a charming girl, and expressed a wish to see her again. Later in the week there was a dance at Fort Myer, across the river from Washington. Captain Pershing was there, of course and so was Miss Warren, After that there were many meetings. The young woman was quite a belle in Washington, and Pershing, captured by Cupid, feund he was not alone in his suit for her hand.
