FIERCE NAVAL FIGHT |

THE WYOMING’S HEROIC BATTLE WITH THE JAPANESE,

Ee:

Against Overwhelming Odds the American

Commander McDugall Fought One of the

Most

mente In the History of Marine Warfare.

Daring and Successful Engage-

Strange as it may seem, the Wyo- ming’s oriental battle is an almost un- recorded chapter of our naval annals, though it ranks even higher in point of daring and success against overwhelm- ing odds than the defeat of the Ala- bama by the Wyoming’s sister ship, the Kearsarge. But the Wyoming never was in very great luck as a naval star. She had her part throughout the civil war inal] the hardest of blockading and cruising service, and fought well when- had the chance, but she did the luck of getting into the She was sent off at the same time as the Kearsarge to cruise for that scourge of the seas, the Alabama, and just missed her by the merest chance on two occasions in the China seas.

It was in 1863, toward the end of the dual reign of the tycoon and the mika- fo, when Japan was in the throes of civil war, and the forces of the rebel princes were resisting to the last the passing uf the old feudal system. The Prince of Nagato was one of these, and from his tiny kingdom that frozted on

the straits of i

ever she uot have

Na ners r’**t .

Simonoseki he declared himself lord paramvunt of everything in sight, including the neighboring seas, from which he took generous toll as did

ever the pirate chiefs of Tarifa. He had laid violent hands and hot shot upon the vessels of various powers, in-

that if the mikado could not take a fall out of his rebellious subject the Wyo- ming couid and would without much urging. This struck the government as a good thing and an easy way out of the international difficulty, so McDugall was given carte blanche to settle ac- counts with the Prince of Nagato in be- half of all the powers concerned, and he forthwith sailed away.

It was the middle of July when the Wyoming found herself in the strait of Simonoseki and in sight of the shore batteries which were a part of the prince’s defenses to seaward. Before she had time to open on the batteries two Japanese gunboats loomed up, one abead and one astern, in the narrow strait, and presently a third came cruis- ing out from among the neighboring is- lands. It was a nasty place for a fight, McDugall being without charts or pi- lots, and the odds were more than enough for Nelson himself, being 48 guns of the three Japanese vessels to the 26 of the old Wyoming, to say nothing of the batteries on shore. There was still a chance to run, barring some dan- ger of grounding in the narrow channels among the islands, but the idea does not seer to have occurred to any one aboard the frigate.

Working to windward of the nearest Japanese, the Wyoming opened at long range aad worked down on her till, when close aboard, there was nothing of the enemy left standing above decks.

' The other two vessels had come up in the meantime and engaged the Ameri- can on either side, but she lay to and gave then shot for shot, port and star- board, till her gunners were smoke blind and the flarae of the guns no lon-

Fighting themselves out of one smoke patch into aaciaes, the three com batants circled ¢eennd like two crows and a kingbizd #1: they had drifted down in rang: & th shore batteries, which gayly took s hand in the game. But McDugall ran across the hows of one of his iked her as he went and left her a floating wreck, aud then turned his attention to the bat teries. The Wyoming’s men rigged th smith’s forge on deek and tossed hot shot into the works ashore till they set them afire and the soldiers fled, and the other Japs csc ew e'semauting cruiser, de- ciding cnough was as good as a feast, followed their example.

A Nervous Toronto Woman Walked the Floor During the Night for Hours at a Time--She Makes a Statement.

TORONTO, ONT.—“I was troubled with nervousness. It was impossible for me to keep still andif the spells came over me during the night I had to get up and walk the floor for hours at a time My blood was very poor and I was subject to bilious attacks, My feet would swell and | was not able todo my own house- work. I treated with two of the best physicians here but only received relief for a time. I became discouraged. One day a friend called and advised me to try Hood’s Sarsaparilia. I laughed at thead- Vice but Iwas prevailed upon and pro- curec. one bottle. Before I used it all I began to feel better. I took several bote tles and also several boxes of Hood’s Pills. Now I can eat and drink heartily and sleep soundly. Eicod’s Sarsaparilla has entirely cured meand also strengthened me so that I now do all my own work. I cheerfully recommend Hood’s Sarsapa- rilla to all sufferers from nervousness, wea’ ness or general debility.” Mus. H.
