SIX FRENCH JACKIEs
 IN A HEROIC FEAT

Paris, Jan. 4.-How the heroic self sacrifice of six French bluejackets made possible the capture of St. Georges, a town of less than two miles from Nieuport is described by the Mathis war correspondent in Elan ders. He says:
 The attackers had driven the Ger mans from the advance trenches but taking refuge in the houses in the vtI- assailants in a, difficult position. The situation of a force of BeIgians isoIat- ed on a strip of land surrounded by a hood became critical and the artfI- ,lery alone was able to effect any thing against the esemy. The British batteries at Ramscapelle tried but their shells burst over the French.
 Six bluejackets then hoisted a three-inch gun on large punt and poled along the canal behind, the viI- 1age, running the gauntlet of the Ger man rifles. As one was hit another took the pole and continued until he in turn fell stricken. The sixth man was mortally wounded as with a last push he sent the punt to the hank. where the French advance guard was waiting.
 The gun was quickly landed, and a few shots of 300 yards brought the houses on top of the Germans, who retreated into the arms of a batta,l- ion of Belgians. The latter complet- ed the enemy's ro11t
 Meanwhile the French column tri- unnphant1y took possession of the hear of ruins which was formerly St Georges, and before night the engin. eers had established a. bridge head enabling the Allies artillery to de. bouch on the right bank of the Yser.'
