English sailors to abando theirro bridges
and gun decks, and Just as he saw that he
was master another English vessel came to
the aid of his victim The three French
merchantmen, instead Of delivering combat
as had been agreed, ran away. The English
then attacked the two French figates at
such close quarters as to change the order
of the battle, which then became terrible
Jean Bart and the count fought like q
couple of lions in order to give the mer-
chant vessels time to escape. At last the
greater part of their sailors had persisted.
The masts of the vessels had been cut away,
and they were unable to defend themselves
longer. The victory cost the English dear.
A great number Of their sailors persisted,
count were taken prisoners and carried to
Plymouth &
In few days they escaped during fog,
accompanied by two or three sailors. They
seized the yawl of merchant vessel and
pulled to the French coast After 48 hours
of exposure and excessive labor they land
ed in Brittany. Bart was made captain
for this exploit, and about that time Louis
XIV for the first tiR1e saw the brave sailor.
Summoning him to his side, he said, "Jean
Bart, appoint you chief,of the squadron"
Sire, that is the right thing to do re
sponded the rough old sailor He soon
went to sea, commanding squadron with
which he had several actions and made
many captures. In 1890 he commanded the
Alcyon under the celebrated Admiral Tour
vile in the war to place James II on the
throne of England. Upon his return from
that campaign he was allowed to carry out
the idea of forming a special squadron
to destroy Dutch commerce. The vessels
were fast frigates, operating as corsairs in
chasing down the enemy's vessels and on
occasion uniting to fight in line of battle,
something in the nature Of sea cavalry. His
first cruise with the squadron was in the
North sea and the Baltic. When he was
ready to sail, he found himself blockaded by
IS English and Dutch vessels. He managed
to elude them, made his cruise, burned
nearly 100 English vessels and returned to
port with his squadron intact. -
Now Louis XIV sent for him. His brusque
ways and manners gained for him at court
the sobriquet of 1.-THE Sea Bear" Ill.
In the presence of the grand monarch he
smoked his pipe Familiarity, slapped the
princes of the blood on the back and acted
in every respect like a genuine sea dog
During great famine in France he con-
voyed fleet of provision ships safely to her
coast after having severe battle with an
Anglo-Dutch fleet. A medal was struck
to commemorate the event. Louis XIV
conferred upon him letters of nobility, the
cross of St. Louis and the right to wear the
fower-de-luce. He took another trip to the
North sea and narrowly missed capturing
William of Orange, who happened to be

Definitions of

At an examination Of applicants for adj
mission to the bar, held not long ago, a
student was asked to define ''law." He
asked, DO you want the definition of
Coke, Blackstone or Kent about it's repre-
senting a rule of action, or the one that it
is the perfection Of reason or another that
it is a spark caught from the ashes Of all
sciences?'" The chief examiner, after con
sulting with his associates, smilingly said,
"Give us your own own ideas on the sub
ject." Then came this rejoinder, s'Person-
ally my observation, reflection and reading
have satisfied me that in average practice
law is injustice boiled down to science +"
He passed and is said to be zealously refut-
ing at the bar his own definition. New
