WHERE JOAN OF ARC WAS BURNED.

Joan of Arc was burned at the stake.
For a century and half after the conquest

from William of Normandy. Rouen here was an
English town. Then the French captured and
held 1t until 1919 when 1t fell once more into

against the English this was stronghold Of her
enemies. and every victory she won made their
hatred blacker. According to the old chronicles
she had premonitions that her mission for
France accomplished when she raised the
siege of Orleans and secured the coronation of
Charles VII at Rheims; but the king would not
let her go back to private life
In 1880 at Compiegne, she was taken prisoner
by the Burgundian allies of the English, and by
them sold to those against whom she had de-
Tended her country. 1t was in an old castle half
a mile away behind (the building itself is not
now in exstence). that she was tried for heresy
and condemned to death a witch: the spot
where the slab is set in the pavement G43D she

France under Napoleon. This battle the
elimination of the campaign following the escape
of Napoleon from his exile at Elba. Napoleon
was defeated; he left the field in the center Of
a square with somber but calm countenance,

that more than a battle had been lost that day."

How ParneII Left the World

Among the curious characteristics n,
Pamell as leading statesman was his
capacity for avoiding publicity. 1t is
not only that he disappeared for
weeks and months. But he evidently
achieved the habit in early years OF
cutting himself of at will from the
outside world. At the first meeting
with Mrs. O'Shea in Palace Yard he
confessed that he had not answered
her invitation to dinner because he
had not opened his letters for days"
