The Forrest City times., 1903-12-18

At the time of Admiral Jones' death the French people believed that the United States, whom he had so essen ually served, and with so much honor to himself, would claim his remains and in order that disinterment and shipment might be made easy, as we have already said. the body was placed in leaden coffin. The American con- Sress, then called the national assem- bly. paid the memory of the dead naval hero the honor of sending a deputation or F of their body to attend the fu- neral, but that was all Neither the American ambassador, Goueverneur Morris, nor the United States thought 1t necessary to claim the remains and have them returned to the land of his adoption. No marble slab or monu- ment has ever marked the grave. but instead the vulgar tread of business life has been felt over the spot. and not even tablet set in the wall of the building is visible to remind one that i somewhere way down in the soil be- heath there lie the bones of one of the greatest naval heroes which ever walked a deck or faced an enemy in deadly combat
 But the failure of the United States to honor Admiral Jones does not arise from his lack of claim upon this coun- try as one of it's loyal citizens, for by | direct avowal on his part America was the land of his adoption. He used to say: America has been the country of my fond election from the age of 13. when first saw it." And it may not be known that his hand was the first which ever raised the stars and stripes over ship. His account of this i'm.

portant event is as follows: "I had the honor to hoist with my own hands the flag of freedom, the first time 1t was displayed, on the Delaware; and have attended it with veneration ever since on the ocean"
 The account of how Jones won rec
 ognition for the flag from France, the first ever given it by foreign nation. is exceedingly interesting. It was at Quiberon, France, where the Ranger, his ship, was being rcfitted, prepara- tory to a descent upon the coast and shipping of Great Britain. Jones dis played great professional address and
 characteristic firmness in compelling
 the French admiral to give the Ameri-
 can flag the first salute it ever received.
 He wrote to the French commander,
 who had ignored his claims. "It is true,
 my command at present is not impor-
 tant, yet, as the senior American off cer at present in Europe it is my duty
 to claim an equal return of respect to the flag of the United States that would be shown to any other flag whatever" ! And he stood by his contention until
 the boom of the French guns was heard
 in salute of the then young Glory. Of
 his triumph he was naturally very proud and wrote to the marine
 committee at home: "I am happy in
 having it in my power to congratulate you on my having seen the American | flag recognized in the fullest and com pletest manner by the flag of France" | The story of Paul Jones exploits reads ] like the widest fiction. The engage
 ment between the Serapis and the Bon ] Homme Richard so named in honor of his friend Franklin, was the most des- l perate and most remarkable in naval | chronicles. As close and deadly fight,
 hand to hand, and accompanied by the dreadful circumstances that can attend a sea engagement, it has no parallel. | It's incidents have been selected as the ! foundation of fictitious narratives of
 maritime combats. Mir. Cooper. the celebrated American novelist. and AL
 len Cunningham, have both chosen
 Paul Jones as the hero of romances.
 | For his services congress gave him a
 vote of thanks and later presented him
 with a gold medal, and now. after a l century and quarter since he won
 the victory over the Serapis, it may be
 that money will be appropriated to
 bring his remains back 10 this country
 and give them distinguished burial.

Briuht's Disease Cured.

Whitehall, Ill., Dec. "A case has been recorded in this place recently, which up sets the theory of many physicians that Bright's Disease IS incurable. It is the case of MT. Lon Manley, whom the doc tors told that he could never recover Mir Manley tells the story of his case and how he was cured in this way:
 '1 began using Dodd's Kidney Pills after the doctors had given me up. For four or five years had Kidney, Stomach and Liver Troubles: l was a general wreck and at times would get down with m, back SO bad that l could not turn myself in bed for three or four days at time.

ed the spot underneath the floor of the photograph gallery as the place where John Paul Jones was buried It is also said that a plan of the cemetery is in existence which indicates the exact To- cation of Jones grave. But some doubt has been expressed as to whether the actual bones of the famous commander of the Bon Hommie Richard could be recovered, even though the grave were accurately located. for. lying in such 'ose proximity to others who were buried in the cemetery, there would be great danger of confusion. It has been suggested as a way around this diff culty that the remains of Jones could be identified by the skull. if by no other means. for the admiral had a head which was nearly twice as large as that of an ordinary man. But in considering the difficulty the fact has been overlooked that at the time oi burial the remains were enclosed in a leaden casket. which ought to keep the dust and bones from mixing with the surrounding soil and make identifiea- tion easy.
