LIGHTING REBELS
J. W. Head Writes That Put
ting Down a Nicaraguan
Revolt Is No Picnic.
Central American warfare long has
been the subject of satire of humorous
writers, comic opera, libbretists, and
jokesmiths In general. But it's no jest,
according to J. W. Head, an Atlanta
boy now in the United States marine
corps, who for several months has been
in Nlcarauga endeavoring to preserve
peace with the aid of machine guns.
The young sea soldier has written hie
father, O. T. Head, a thrilling account
of his experiences ,and from his recital
there is little of the opera bufte to the
fighting that has been going on in
Central America recently.
“T thought I was going to have a pic
nic,” he writes, "but after the dead and
wounded commenced to come in it was
pretty strenuous here, and the worst
of it was the uncertainty of the thing.
You didn’t know what time one of those
•tray bullets would hunt you out.
"They have a kind of wierd sound —
not pleasant to hear, when they go
whistling by. The federal? have a fort
next to our camp, where they used to
shoot the prisoners and they would al
ways celebrate the event by yelling and
shouting.
“The women fight here, too —go to
war along with the men, some of them
carrying young babies. The boys shoul
der a rifle when they get about 10 or
12 years old. They have so many rev
olutions here that they are practically
raised in the battlefields. But even at
that, we have shown them a few things
about fighting. We have some brave
officers in this outfit, especially Major
Butler. At the battle of Mayaya, the
only gun that was doing any harm was
a machine gun. They had it trained
across an open space, and were mow
ing down every man that showed up on
it. But it had only fired about fifteen
shots when a lucky shot from outside
jammed the breech and put it out of
commission. It saved the lives of a lot
of our boys.”
Head gives a glowing account of the
agricultural advantages of the country,
especially for corn culture, but he closes
with a wish to see Georgia’s red hills
as soon as possible.
