In reply to the question In what en-
gagements he considered hlmself To
have been in the greatest danger Of
losing his life Napoleon once said. In

Indeed. IL further proof were dema nded
TO show that he did not spare himself
at Toulon 1t Is only necessary to add
that during the ten weeks Of its siege
Napoleon. in addition to q bayonet
wound in his thigh. had three horses
shot under him. while at the siege Of
Acre during the expedition to Egypt he
lost no fewer than four In the same
manner.
During the last days Of his life, when
captivity, disappointment and sickness
had well nigh completed their work, it
Is said that the agony Of his fatal dis
ease drew from him on many occasions
the pltlful cry of, why did the cannon
balls spare me?"
During his long military career Napo-
Icon fought sixty battles, while Caesar
fought but fifty. In the early part Of
his career he was utterly reckless OF
danger while on the battlefield, and this
spirit of fearlessness contributed large
ly to the love and esteem in which he
was held by his armies. There was
curious belief among the English in Ma
poleon's time that he had never been
wounded, and indeed the report was
current that he carefully if not In
cowardly manner fefrained from ex-
posing himself. Nothing could be moro
contrary to the truth, for be was in re
ality several times severely wounded,
but as he wished to impress upon his
troops the belief that good fortune new
er deserted him and that, like Achilles.
he was well nigh invulnerable, he al
ways made secret of his many dan
gers. He therefore enjoined once for
all upon the part Of his immediate staff !
the most absolute silence regarding all
circumstances Of this nature, for 1t is |
almost impossible to calculate the con-
fusion and disorder which would have |
resulted from the slightest report or the |
smallest doubt relative to his existence |
Upon the single thread Of this mans |
life depended not only the fate and gov
eminent Of a great empire. but the |
whole policy and destiny Of Europe as

Better Late
Than Never
SUPERVISORS OF OAHU COUNTY
TO HAVE FIRST FLAG RAISING
TOMORROW

A new flag has been purchased by the
Board of Supervisors for the flag pole
on top of the County offices in the
Mcintyre building and will be unfurled
tomorrow morning at nine o'clock. The
band will be present at the ceremonies
and will play several patriotic airs. For
some reason the building has never
had Old Glory waving over it, and as
the Offices are public ones, the board
decided that it was only right that the
Stars and Stripes should be hoisted
every day the same as is done on
every other public building.
County government mas been IN eff
feet here little over two years, but
somehow or other the matter of flag
was overlooked until now. Having
once realized the need of a flag, how
ever, the Board is going to make
amends by raising it with due cere-
mony, and tomorrow Old Glory will be
flung to the breeze, if there is any,
with proper enthusiasm. Berger will
play THE Star Spangled Banner" and
a crowd will gather to see the Board
building Americanized.
