which Nr. Bryan afforded during the
trying period Immediately preceding
his nomination. Most Of the dele

Instructed 20 cast their votes for the
nomination Of the Sebrasksn for the
presidency. Upon this point there
never was any disagreement but
among the delegates were those repre-

resentatiyes came from regions widely
removed both By distance and by the
character IL their respective eonstitu~

Set a Thief to Catch One.

One of the most conspicuous in
stances of setting thief to catch a
thief is that of Jean Bart, the popu-
lar naval hero of France. Born and
bred pirate, he became the boldest
and most successful buccaneer on Eu.
ropean waters. What he did not know
about that business was not worth
knowing. Recognizing the mans pro-
wesS, and anxious to increase the
prestige of the French navy then at
a low ebb, Colbert. the Minister of
Louis XIV. won Bart over to loyalty
to his country, gave him commits
sion, and found his choice and his
hopes justified in a series of brilliant.
ly successful naval exploits directed
by Bart against piratical rovers in
general and the enemies of French
commerce in particular. He secured
enormous prizes in ships and bullion,
and by intercepting Il marauding fleet
carrying off some French wheat ships
he once in a season of bad crops
STAYED off famine, and captured the
would-be robbers, bringing his spoils
into port amid storm of enthusiasts
tic reclamation.
