was from home, and the Countess
had no alternative but to hand the
pirates the plate. The following day
Paul encountered the British boat,
the Drake, and after terrible strug-
gle, Jones had complete victory.
He then cody sat down and wrote to
the Countess of Selkirk that the
struggle he was engaged in was a
fight to force freedom on America,
and IAN end to British misrule" He
would return the plate, and he did
it. Crossing to france Jones OBJ

sailed with squadron-the Alliance,
SO guns; the Vengeance, II guns; the

being his destination.
Jones Arrives in the Forth
On September Is, 1779, a mes
senger arrived from Eyemouth in
Edinburgh, and intimated that in the
afternoon of the preceding day three
ships of war had been seen in the
Forth. The ships were the Bon
Homme, the Pallas, and the Venge-
ance, the Alliance and the Serf hav-
ing deserted Jones to take up pirate
work on their own hook. Despite the
desertion Jones stuck to his original
plan. He wanted to get into Leith
and there burn every ship which lay
in the harbor if his terms were not
complied with. When off Pitenweem
Jones signaled for a pilot. Accord
ingly pilot went off on instructions
from the Burgh authorities, and on
getting on to Jones ship he was met
by the famous adventurer. "Any
news from Fife ?" asked Jones, and
the reply was that the inhabitants of
the east coast burghs were all ex-
element in case they should get
visit from the daring buccaneer,
Paul Jones'" Continuing, the pilot
said that guns had been mounted
near the harbor of Pitcnweem, and
he would like if the captain would
give him some powder and shot so
that they might sink any pirate boat
that attempted to enter the harbor.
Jones was highly amused at the mis-
take the Filters had made, and he
presented a barrel of gunpowder to
the pilot, but was sorry he must
apologize for not including shot in
the gift

Gasoline lnjunctions
Are Served By The
Standard Oil Co,

Three dealers in fuel oil in At
lantlc City were served last week
with preliminary injunctions issued
Oil Company of New Jersey, by
Chancellor Stevens, restraining them
from using STANDARD Gas" and
standard Gasoline" as the name of
product they offered for sale. The
interesting question of the difference
between noun and an adjective in
the promotion of trade is brought up.
The papers in the case allege that
the term STANDARD Gas" has been
used widely through the State to
describe the gasoline manufactured
by the Standard Oil Company.
Many garages which sell the
Standard Oil Company's product
were shown to have erected signs of
their own which read STANDARD
Cas-, despite the fact that the Com
pany furnishes signs describing it's
product as STANDARD Gasoline" and
standard Motor Gasoline"
The extensive advertising by the
Company of these terms STANDARD
Gasoline" and Standard Motor Gas
oline" was described to sustain the
plaintiffs claim to the use of the
nouns which have become familiar
all over the State featuring Polar
Inc and Standard Gasoline"
The Company contended that the
names STANDARD Gas" and "Stand-
ard Gasoline" have now become
peculiar trade names of it's product,
and that persons who ask for gas
ollne under these names in prac-
tlcally every instance are seeking to
buy its product, and nothing else,
and it claims the right to use the
word STANDARD" in the manner it is
used, as an Identifying term.
Competition in the Gasoline bust
ness in New Jersey is very active,
and various dealers who do not sell
the Standard Oil Company's product
have sought to increase their bust
ness by displaying signs reading
standard Cas-, and at the same
time have furnished the public, not
with the Standard Oil Company S
gasoline, but with something else
which, whatever it's merits, is not
STANDARD Gasoline"
The papers in these cases show
also that one at least of these de-
PENDANTS, On being demonstrated
with by the Standard Oil Company
for his use of this name, vigorously
asserted that in doing so he was
within the law. This is the very
question that the Standard Oil Com
pany wants to test, and have set
tied by a legal adjudication.

Who Was Paul Jones?

Paul Jones was a native of Kirk
bean, in the Stewarty of Kirkcud-
bright, and his real name was John
Paul. He began life as a sailor in
the Friendship, of Whitehaven,
America being his destination. He
studied navigation every spare min
ute, and became third mate in an
other Whitehaven boat when a mere
youth. In 1866, at the age of nine
teen years, he was full-fedged
mate, and was employed in the
American slave trade. He hated the
traffic, and set out for home on
Whitehaven boat. On the voyage the
captain and mate took i'll and died,
and Paul brought the vessel home. In
1773 he went to Virginia to settle
up the affairs of a brother who had
died. He was then caught in the
whirlwind of the American Revolu
ton, and, entering the service of the
colonies, became Paul Jones, in place
of plain John Paul, and cast in his
lot with America. He organized the
American Navy, and on December 7,
IT'S, hoisted the Stars and Stripes
with his own hands on the Alfred. In
1778 he commenced his famous pirat
ical cruise. On the Sloway Firth
he took advantage of his familiarity
with the scenes of his boyhood, and
fired one ship and spiked thirty-six
guns. He cast anchor in the Dee,
five miles from Kirkcudbright, and
there he selected a crew of fifteen,
and placing them under two lieuten-
ants, ordered the gang to row in a
small boat to St. Mary's Isle, the
seat of the Earl of Selkirk, and there
demand the silver plate. The Earl
