SAVED THE TOWN.

The Fisherman Lied, Stuck to His
Story and Got Surprise.
More than two centuries ago, when
an allied English and Dutch feet
under Admiral Russell, approached
Les Sables d'Olonne, on the, bay OF
Biscay, to lombard it, a difficulty
arose. The conformation of the shore
partly concealed the settlement be-
hind q ridge, and they did not know
how to train their guns. But they
had captured a fishing smack in the
bay, and Admiral Russell summoned
the fisherman, Daniel Fricaud, and or
dered him to tell exactly how the
town lay and where to aim in order to
destroy its principal buildings. Fri;
caud, who appeared to be poor, ig-
norant fellow, very much frightened,
pointed to a pier with group Of old,
rickety buildings. The admiral was
doubtful, but the trembling fisherman
assured him that just beyond and al
most exactly in range was the market
square, the very heart of the town.
''Do you understand" asked the ad-
miral sternly, "that if you are telling
me lie I shall soon find it out and
have you hanged from the yardarm
of my ship?'
'I know" answered the fisherman,
"and if I have lied you must hang me.
I can only tell you-it is there that you
should aim your guns"
Convinced that the man would not
venture a deception, Admiral Russell
ordered the bombardment to begin. A
little while after shells had begun to
fall behind the screening ridge and
shabby wharf, and great columns Of
smoke arose, which rapidly increased
in volume. It seemed that half the
place must be on fire. Only when he
thought its destruction nearly enough
accomplished did the feet withdraw
first releasing Fricaud and his fishing
boat.
The fisherman, amazed and anxious,
fastened to the town to learp what
could possibly nave happened, 1or ne
knew we'll that In the quarter that
had been shelled there were only a
few worthless sheds and storehouses
That was why, at the risk Of his
neck, he had pointed it out. Never
for a moment had he thought Of aid
ing the enemy to destroy his native
place, and he had fully expected to
pay the penalty. What could the
smoke be?
1t proved that the inhabitants had
practiced a clever ruse. Seeing that
the shells were falling exactly where
they did the least harm, they had
built huge bonfres to convey the i'm
preston of a confagration. The trick
had probably saved the town. 1t had
certainly saved a brave fisherman
from being hanged.-Youth's Compan-
