July, 184 yeura ago, there was born in KIrkhean, County of Kirkcudbright, Scotland, to a gardener named John Paul, a son w10 wus destined to gj? play a role In the found 4yUDU Ing of a new nation. For the first twelve years of hla life young John Paul, for he was named after his father, lived the life of any boy of his time and there was nothing to Indicate the high destiny that awaited him. Then In 1759 he was apprenticed to a Whitehaven merchant, engaged In the American trade, and went to sea. And it was on the sea that this Scotch lad was to win his fame, was to become the . outstanding American naval officer of the Revolution and one of our great sea captains of all time. To most Americans the name John Paul Jones Is a familiar one but the ' extent of their knowledge of him Is . usually confined to that epic battle ' between the Bonhomme Richard and the Serapts during which. Jones uttered his Immortal words, "I have noj yet begun to fight." But there Is so much more of Interest In his career ' than Is given in our school 'book histories that It deserves wider knowledge among us of Ills adopted country,. For one thing, If for no other, his connection with the .early history of our national banner should give hint enduring fame. That Flagjind I. are twins," he once said. Born the. same day and the same hour. We cannot. be parted In life, or-i- n death. So long as we can float we shall float together. 'If we must sink, wt? shall go down ' ' as one." , The Scotch boy who went to qpa In 1759 rose rapidly, became a ship owner and by 1773 was making voyages to the West Indies and to India. In ttje meantime his brother, William Paul; had been adopted by a certain William Jones, and became a prosperous, planter. When he died John Paul Inherited his estate. Thereupon he added the Jones to his name and settled down as a planter in America which, as he characterised it, was the country of his fond selection since the age-oeighteen." Jones was not long to carry forward his ambition to become a Virginia gentleman. For the outbreak of the Revolution brought with It the necessity for the rebellious colonies to organize a navy with which to cope if possible with the "Mistress of the Seas, and more especially to waylay ships bringing supplies to the Itritisli army. So one of the early acts of the Continental congress was to choose a s naval commander-ln-ehiefour and a number of first, second and third lieutenants, and provide nhips for them. This new navy was mainly a New Englund affair and the commander-in-chie- f was Commodore Esek Ilopkins from Massachusetts. The only officers who were not New Englanders were Nicholas Biddle of Pennsylvania and John Paul Jones of Virginia. Jones first task was arming and manning the flagship of the fleet of eight vessels given to Commodore It was the Black Prince, a Ilopkins. merchant ship, which was renamed the Alfred. In January, 177G, Commodore Hopkins arrived In Philadelphia to go aboard his flagship. As he stepped over the side Captain Salton-etal- l gave the signal and Lieutenant Jones, who was flag lileutenant, hoisted over the Alfred two flags. The one which he raised to the mizzen peak, as the flag of the United Colonies, was the Grand Union flag of thirteen alternate red and white stripes with the Union Jack In the upper corner where In the future the field of blue with Its white stars was to appear. At the main peak he ran up as the fleet flag one of the famous rattlesnake flags, the first of which had been suggested by Benjamin Franklin. So came about John Paul Jones first connection with our national flag. After his return from this voyage, during which he distinguished himself for boldness and skill when the commander-ln-ehie- f displayed a timidity and a lack of skill not in keeping yith hla high position, Jones was giv- - J mmw I f f, cap-taln- left-han- d en command of t he lnovidcnce, a 1 gun brig. With her he captured L" prizes along the Atlantic coast and on October 10, 1770, he was made cap tain and given command of the Alfred a 24 gun vessel. On this ship he set out on his cruise which resulted in (he capture of seven ifritlsh vesseb which he brought Into port at Boston Convinced that more good .coufd Ue accomplished by harassing flie British Jn their own waters than by attacking their shipping ofT the American eoast,. he began urging congress to allow hi in to carry the war aaipst Eng land across the Atlantic. Accordingly on June 14, 1777, congress appointed him to Ihefoniinand of the Ranger, a new shj irt 18 guns, jepenlly com pleted at Portsmouth. New Ilanip shire. In Uib very shine hjur that the. resolution, giving Rim command of was the Ranger, was passed tig-ralso passed the historic resolution, which brought, ifitp being the Stars and Stripes. And it was this eircuiji-stane- e which inspired .Vines stivte-- . uuyiVtfiat he and the flag were .twins. . And it Is here that the stories of Jot pi Paul Jones and our national emblem began to run In parallel channels, a. story which is little known tt most Americans apd whk-las been brought out by a new book, The National Flag, by Willis Fletoho? Jdlin-sopublished recently by the Houghton Mifflin company. Upon, taking command of the Ranger Jones Immediately began preparing the ship tot .the tripbeross the Atlantic. Although there Is no record .of the. date whefl he Biist-djhStars and Stripes over her, tradition suys khut.lt was bn tlig Fourth of July.. Of Jones cruise of. 2& dajls fn British water with the Runger.it has been .said, -- For dtifing and success R.was unsurpassed In fhe annuls oN naval history! In iglditibii tovapturing the Drake, he burned the shipping In . Whitehaven and off name his made one of terror and along the coasts of Great Britain. But the months which followed Jones' success In the Ranger were months of anxiety for him also. Most of his troubles, however, were ashore rather than altoat. He was lftiding it very difficult to pay his men, sell, his prizes and secure a squadron for an- other and greater cruise w hich hb hud In mind. At last an old East India merchant ship was secured, renamed the Bonhomme Richard, in compliment to Benamin Franklin, and to this was joined the Alliance, a' 32s gun frigate pud thqee small French vessels. The commander Of 'the Alliance was Capt. Pierre Dundais, who, as Jones wrote to Franklin, was a crazy man. If, ns Jones had complained that the Ranger was a poor fighting ship because it was cranky, slow and of trilling force," he soon found that ttie Bonhomme Richard was worse. Her hull was rotten and later In his great battle with the Serapis one of the heaviest guns blew up at 'the start forcing a whole battery to be abandoned. . The crew was a mixture of Americans and Europeans and with the untrustworthy support of the crazy Dundais, his venture was a perilous one at best. But disregarding his many handicaps, Jones'sailed from France on August 14, 1779. By September 22, he had nearly completed the circuit of the British Isles, had captured 17 vessels and thrown the entire eoast Into a state of perpetual alurm. What Jones could expect If he were defeated and captured was shown by the British authorities proclaiming him as the pirate Jones, a rebel subject and criminal of the n, CarriV-kfergus- state. On September 23 off Flauiborough Head, Jones met the Baltic trade, a convoy of 41 vessels, escorted by the Serapis and the Countess of Scarborough. Then followed the historic engagement of which It has been said the annals of the American navy contain no finer example of skill, courage and leadership than that found in the duel off Flamborough Head. Rarely has a commander who won his fight contended with such overwhelming obstacles." The story of that engagement la too familiar to need retelling here how Jones soon realized that the Serapis would destroy him in a long range battle, how he Pearson, the British cominand- - Humoi Jackson, Mieh.

What followed is a striking illustration of the old saying about how a For more than a republip forgets. hundred years the republic which he had helped establish forgot John Paul Jones, at least so fhr as pnying any honor to his ashes was concerned. In 1905 Ambassador Horace Porter, after a long search, found Jones' grave In the old St Louis cemetery for foreign Protestants. Under Instructions from President Roosevelt his remains were exhumed and brought to the United States by an American naval squadron sent especially for that purpose. They were taken to the United States naval academy and then as a final ironical touch to the way in which the richest and stingiest government in the world rewards Its heroes (for neither his salary, the money he had advanced to the United States government, nor his prize money was paid until a generation after his death) the casket containing his body was left behind a staircase resting on a couple of rough In one of the buildcarpenter-horse- s ings at Annapolis for seven years! Then, when the scandal of this threatened to be aired In congress, he was buried with the honors due him.
