POPULATION OF MORRIS co.

What the Census Bulletins show In
Regard to Our Population.
The Secretary of State issues a Sc
ries of bulletins showing the results Of
the census and will continue the same
until the work is completed. For the
convenience of comparison we will pub
lish the returns for Morriscounty until
the official result is announced:
The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1905-08-01

Ine fame that he won In the next few
months came the undying hatred Of all
the people of his native country Brit
ish privateers had ravaged the Ameri-
can coast, had seized American mer-
chandise and had burned some Ameri-
can towns. Jones believed in making
reprisals, and he spread terror and
alarm along the Irish, Welsh and Eng
fish coasts.
He chose, however, as the place of di-
rect attack White Haven, where he had
lived as a boy and a youth, and the
masts of whose shipping were in sight
of his birthplace. He contemplated
burning all the vessels at the place and
looting the town. David Freeman, de-
serter from Jones' ship, spread the
alarm among the inhabitants of the
town. Wallingford, one of jones' lieu
tenants, was slow in carrying out
some of his instructions, and the ex-
petition accomplished nothing Of mo-
ment.
The Ranger had no sooner put out
from the Solway than it ran across the
British man-of-war Drake. The Drake
was by far the heavier armed and man
ned and better equipped vessel than
the Ranger. Jones, however. gave bat
tie at once, and after bloody fight he
took the British vessel and hauled
down its colors.
In 1910 Jones was put In command
Of the Bonhomme Richard, decayed

transformed into a ship of war. 1t had

can and two French--for the coast of
Scotland Off marlborough he fell in
with feet of forty-one merchantmen
returning from the Baltic sea conveyed
by two powerful men-of-war, the Sc
rapis and the Countess of Scarborough
Watching his opportunity to attack one
Of the vessels separately, he finally en-
gagged with the Scraps, and after three
hours Of desperate firing at close range

presenting him with gold handled
sword and decorating him with the GUS
tomary orders. Congress also did ev-
erythlng it could to show its gratitude
Jones was essentially a sailor of for
tune, and he went to St. Petersburg,
where he was made an admiral in the
Russian navy. On his way thither he
stopped long enough in Denmark to
f1irt with the princess royal, who fell
violently in love with him. Thirty
English officers In the service of Rus
STA threatened to resign If the pirate"
were commissioned. Catherine said,
You'll have to double your number to
make the loss equal to gain" They
stayed in the service After winning
honors for Russia Admiral Jones was
practically forced out by the Jealousy
Of Prince Potemkln and went to Paris.
There he was alternately grave and
gay. He could have married into the
houses Of any of the nobility, but the
memory of Scotch girl, Alice Duns-
combe, was in his heart, and there 1t
stayed to the exclusion of all other
loves until the day OF his death, July
is, 1902. at the age of forty-five.
Jones was hero, but he was far
more than hero He possessed an or
gambling mind and fertility of re-
source which no difficulties could ex-
haust He was compelled to create the
opportunity which he had for serving
his country. He also possessed the quail
tiles Of great naval commander.
Napoleon said that If he had lived
France might have had an admiral,"
and he lamented that Jones could not
have been matched somewhere against
Nelson with fairly equal force"

and appeared before the marine com
mittee appointed by congress to make
some provisions for a navy. He was
given commission as first lieutenant
of the Alfred, a merchantmen which
had been made over into a man-of-
war and placed under the command
of Commodore Hopkins. To the mast
head of this vessel Jones with his own
hands hoisted the first ensign ever
shown on an American ,man-of-war.
1t was the famed rattlesnake flag,
with the motto Don't Tread on Me-"
BY a remarkable coincidence, some
time later, on the Ranger, Jones dis
played at the peak the first bit of
stars and stripes bunting ever flung to
the breeze by an American man-of-war.
No man of that time promoted the
interests Of the navy with such signal
success, but his own personal interests
were overlooked or ignored When the
FIVE naval captains were appointed In
December, 1TT5, Jones name was not
on the list. The influence Of John Ad-

John Paul Jones physically was not

R. A. GRAND COUNCIL CALLED

Extraordinary Action Because of Disc
satisfaction Over Increase In Rates. 4
A special session of the Grand Coun-
Gil Of the Royal Arcanum of New Jer.
sey has been called by the Grand Re
gent, James Rogers, of Crawford, tx
be held in Columbia Hall, New Bruins
wick, on August IL.
1t will probably be two days SEES
sion and is for the purpose of taking
action upon the procedure of the SUI
preme Council at its session at Allan
tic City in May increasing the insur-
ance rates of the Arcanum.
A special session of the Grand Coun.
Gil is most unusual and shows the
gravity of the crisis confronting the
organization. The representatives tc
the Grand Council will be the same as
those attending the regular annual
meeting at Lakewood, as they are
elected for one year terms.
New Jersey has 122 subordinate
councils. All of these will be repre-
sented and it is expected that New
Jersey will express its Interpretation
of the proposed increase.
The whole matter of rates will re-
ceivea thorough airing.
There is no doubt that the Supreme
Council will be conyoked in special
session to consider the protests Of the
order throughout the country. This
announcement was made by a member
of the order who is prominent In the
Grand Council.

FOR THE CAPTURE
OF JOHN PAUL JONES,
Commanding an American ship. the
government will pay the sum
of 10000 guineas.

Z OF the man John Paul Jones, though
volumes Of speculation have been writ
ten, the world knows almost nothing.
From his youth he seemed to prefer
that everything touching his inner self
should be shrouded, though he was
nothing loath to demand proper recog-
milton for the acts which he performed
for his country's good.
There have never been lacking in
Situations that the real reason for the
admirars reticence arose from his de-
lsire to hide certain things which had
been said touching his parentage. It
was commonly reported at one time
that John Paul Jones, though born into
the family of John Paul, a thrifty
Scotch gardener at Arbigland, on the
Solway firth, was in reality the son
of Lord Selkirk, upon whose estate
Gardener Paul delved. Careful inquiry
has disproved the scandal Jennie Mac
duff, the mother OF the naval hero and
the wife Of Gardener Paul, was a
woman of character, possessed in full
measure of the domestic virtues.
The boy John Paul, the youngest of
five sons. was born In little cottage
standing in a. glade near where the
Nth comes flowing into the Solway,
When twelve years of age he was APP
prentIced to ship merchant at White
Haven. The future admlraps first voy-
Age took him to the Rappahannock riv-
err OF America. Twice or three times
the trip was repeated. Owing to the
death of his master the apprentice was
released from his engagement at the
age Of sixteen. An elder brother had
settled on the banks of the American
river, and with him the boy lived and
studied for some time. This brother
had been adopted by a wealthy Virgin
IA family, and when he died John Paul
was invited to take his place and
adopt the name Of his benefactor, 50
that he might logically succeed to the
estates. This he did and thereafter was
known as Paul Jones. his signatures
showing that he dropped the name
John altogether.
Jones' success on shore, however, did
not cure him Of his Unborn affection for
the sea. Long before the death OF his
brother, while he was still John Paul.
he disappeared from the estate on the
Rappahannock river, and letter to his
brother explained that he had sailed on
merchantmen bound for Liverpool.
This life on the sea continued with few
fnternaiselons until he arrived at his
majority ana came into possession or
the Virginia plantation. About that time

captain and mate both died on the
