guns touching each other!
The conflict was terrible!
+ The smoke was stifling!
The boom! boom! of the guns was
incessant!
And both ships were nearly shat
tered to smithereens with shot and
shell!
At one time, so fierce became the
onslaught of Commodore Jones, the
Scraps caught on fire in dozen
places at once and seemed as if it
must burn and sink within the hour!
Just as the moon rose over the
fiery combat the Bon Homme Rich
ard took fire, too, Jones saw that his
ship was in such a dreadful condition
it could not stay afloat much longer.
But he was game and he meant to
win the great naval battle whatever
the cost.
He thought like lightning and
acted just as FAST!
Hand to hand combat" he
shouted.
His voice carried above : the din.
His men followed him. Bayonets and
guns and pistols and spears were all
brought into play!
All this time the flames were creep
ing up the mainmast of the Scraps.
By the light of this. fire Jones could
see that, one of his shot had split the

the NEWEST NAVY on all the high
SeaSr'
They listened to John Paul Jones,
and he had HIS. way!
Sailing the seas with all the as
surance of a commander with great
navy, he struck terror into the hearts
of merchantmen, won medals for his
bravery, and carried out his deter
mination to make the world recog-
nize the sea forces of the young
United States.
The finest feather in the cap of the
Commodore was his victory in the
great naval battle between his flag
ship, the Bon Homme Richard, and
the Scraps, British vessel.
Jones' small squadron was lying a
few leagues north of the Humber
river when the Commodore sudden
ly spied the Baltic fleet of 40 mer-
chantmen, conveyed by the 44-gun
Scraps and the Countess of Scarbor-
ough, with % guns.
He saw his chance and gave the or
der to follow!
Then, at o'clock on the evening
of Sept. %, 1873, one of the most
desperate sea fights ever recorded
commenced!
The British ship was commanded
by Captain Pearson. ..
The Bon Homme Franklin, named
after Benjamin Franklin, was in
charge of Commodore Jones.
There was very little light. Both
commanders were determined to get
the advantage. Running up to such
close range that their spars and rig.
gings became entangled, the two
ships looked like a solid mass of steel
and wood honeycombed with human
beings.
Jones saw the possibility of the

Pictures of Battle withdrawn From

Authorities.

Anton Won Werner, Germany's ccle,,
brated painter OF battle scenes and
honorary director of the Royal Art
school, contributes this month an inter
estirg sidelight on the history OF In
teruational relations during the recent
European crisis, illustrating the precaO-

eninC the situation.
For some time rumors concerning n
withdrawal from exhibition OF some OF
Wcrner's paintings for political rea
sons have been in circulation. These
have now been confirmed by the painter
himself, with the addition that, the
withdrawal was at the request of the
foreign office, which was anxious TO
avoid anything which might stir up
hostility in France. Last autumn Wer-
ner was invited TO participate in the

years Of service in the army. AS the
pay OF the men does not suffice for
their needs their parents have to send
them money and gifts that average
about $40 year. Besides this the
peasant must hire farm laborer as a
substitute for his son which means a
further expense of $50, These figures
appear all the more serious when it is
membered that over half of the fami-
lies included in the investigation fur
nished the country at least four soldiers
each, while the number went as high
as eight or nine in some families.
A striking feature of the situation is
the virtual ruin of some small farms by
the removal of the young men TO do
their term Of service. Such cases are by
no means rare. One peasant who sup

malady. now so well in hand, pales into
insignificance beside tho new terror
that has arisen There is little rash
ness in prophesying that within five
years cancer will have outstripped its
rival and will have heavier death
roll than consumption. The Que, more
over, is a dying and conquered foe; the
other shows a prime vitality and rides
roughshod over the whole realm of
medical ingenuity. Yet the public has
campaigners galore against consump-
ton but its war against cancer has
been left practically to n single i'm
perial committee -
The annual death roll from cancer
in the United Kingdom during the
sixty years covered by the survey Of
this committee has increased from H.
365 (497 a million) to 43,l34 (960 a

of mortality statistics from 1851 to
