i appearance was an occasion fol
much joy. The Directory gave
him every honor, changing the
name of the street in which he liy-
ed to rue de Ia Yictorie, and max
ing him member of the institute.
An invasion of England was now
discussed and Napoleon was to be
sent against her. He made an ex-
animation of the north coast. but
his report was adverse, SO he SUBJ
mitted a plan for the invasion of
Egypt. The Directory gladly ac-
cepted the change and he was made
commander in chief of the Army
OF Egypt. On May 10, 1898 he
sailed from France; on June 9th
he reached Malta and won the
strongest place in Europe. July
End he entered Alexandria and on
July %, Cairo, after the famous
battle of the Pyramids. The
French feet had remained in Abou-
kir Bay after landing the army
and on August 1st, was attacked
by Nelson, who completely des-
troyed it. This opened the ewes
OF Napoleon, who up till now had
not realized the power of the Eng
lish on the sea. He and his army
were now prisoners in the orient
and the winter was spent in reor-
ganizing the government and sci
entifc work.
On August 20 1899, he sailed
with the army in four small vessels
lin Paris. Two countries now re-
manned at war with France Eng
land and Italy. He offered them
terms of peace and they refused.
So nothing remained but to COM
pei it. The Austrians had two
armies, one on the Rhine against
which Moreau was sent, the other
in Italy, beseiging the French shut
up in Genoa.
Moreau defeated the Austrians
in the Rhine countries, fighting
two successful battles and driving
his opponent from Ulm. Napo-
leon decided to carry on the Ital-
ian campaign himself and conceiv-
ed the daring and brilliant plan of
crossing the Alps and falling on
the Austrians from the rear. This
goes to show the brilliant ingenu-
ity of the man who was born to be
made Emperor of France. He at
last drove the Austrians from Italy,
after winning the battle of Maren-
go. The campaign against them
was finished Dec, 3 1900, by the
battle of Hohenlinden wonby Nor
! eau and in February the Treaty Of
LuneviIle established peace.
i It was not until March 1902, thai
England came to terms, by sign

ing the treaty of Amiens. Napo
Ileon now undertook the work O
reconstructing t he government
which awaited him. He fill

Through his long absence ir
Corsica and the complaints thai
the Corsicans had made to the
French government, of the way he
handled his battalion of national
guards in a riot at Ajaccio, he lost
his place in the French army. He
came to Paris in the spring of 1892
hoping to regain it. He dined on
six-cent dishes in cheap restaurants
and was obliged to pawn his watch.
In August he was restored to
the army and in the following June
was sent with his regiment to the
south of France. Napoleon was
in the force sent against Toulon
and was soon promoted to the
command of the second regiment
of artillery. After the fall of Tou-
Ion and the withdrawal of the al
lies in December 1893, Bonaparte
was mentioned by the General In
Chief as one of those who have
most distinguished themselves in
aiding me, . and in February 1894,
was made general of brigade.
In April 1895, Napoleon received
orders to join the army of the
west. On reaching Paris he found
he was assigned to the infantry.
Such a change was considered a
retired. During bis period Of IN
activity he made many friends;
such was the impression he made
that Barras, the nominal head of
the defense, asked Napoleon to
command the forces which pro-
tected the Tuileries, where the con-
vention had gone into permanent
session. Il accept . he said to
Barras, "but l warn you that once
my sword is out Of the scabbard,
I shall not replace it till have es-
tablished order.''
On October rs, he was appoint
General In Chief of the Army OF
the Interior. 1t was proud po-
sition for a young man of twenty
six and speaks we'll of his ability
to conquer difficult obstacles. He
had faith in himself and once said
There is nothing / cannot do fol
myself. If the r e is no one tx
make powder for the cannon CAL
do it.
About this time Napoleon saw
something of society, chiefly thru
the instrumentality of Barras. 1
was at the latter's home that h
met his future wife, the Viscount
ess de Beauharnais, widow of th'
Marquis Beauharnais, who was gull

early feature of the Circle, and one
which must have added greatly to
the pleasure derived from it's meet

vocal selections at each meeting.
The choir was in charge of Mrs.

"Juason Harmon, governor OF Ohio'
has habit of saying what he THINKS
said a member of the Ohio deiee"
tion in congress, land he established
a reputation along that line when he
was a student at the University Oh
Cincinnati.
Harmon was in the graduatihs
class and was entitled to high hohorS
for scholarship achievements. A DAY
or two before the class was to receive
its diplomas Harmon made some re-
marks at student mass meeting
which incensed the faculty.
when the graduating class was as
sembled the president handed out the
sheen skins to each and every mem
Der of the class except the youngster
with unusually big hands That
youngster was Judson Harmon. There
was no diploma for him. The faculty.
at a special meeting, had decided that
the proper way to rebuke him for MS
| unbridled tongue was to Illuminate
him in the presence of the entire class.
Harmon may have been Inundated,
but his humiliation was not a marker
to the Indignation of his classmates
and their parents. There was mass
meeting Immediately after the presi-
dent of the university dismissed the
class, as a result of which a commit
I tee waited on the faculty and demand
ed that Harmon be given his diploma
quite as publicly as he had been hui
inflated. There was a lot of talk on
both sides, but in the end the stu
dents had their own way. The next
day the entire graduating class as
sempled in the same place, with Har-
mon in their midst, and the president
came forward with a solitary diploma
in his hands and presented it to Har-
