Mourns for Old Laiaymttm Sqi$jjnfc That part of the city of WasllUiffton having pride in its traditions la troubled about what Is happening to historic Lafayette square. These green acres to the north of the White House are dominated by five more or lew Imposing statues. Lafayette and Rochambeau, the Frenchmen; Kosciusko, the Pole, and Von Steubeu, the Prussian, stand there In the heart of Washington In the center rides Andrew Jackson on his rearing, tearing charger. , It Is a haunted square, where old ghoets walk. Dolly Madison lived there. Henry Clay sauntered there. The Bl:»lrs, the Lees, the Rodgera and the Decatur* and many another name familiar to Americans are Identified In one way or another with the place. Bvery old house still standing had or deserves a commemorative tablet The square is about to be surrounded by tall buildings, steai-skeietoMd and fleshed with stone or concrete, except upon the south, where It f»c«ls on the White House. The east side Is being transformed, and likewise the north. A theater stands on the ground that Henry Clay traded to Commander Rodgera. The new chamber of Commerce and the veterans' bureau havfe wiped away some of the older houses. On the southeast corner rises the treasury annex. So fai the west side of the green quadrangle has changed only little, but the shadow of change Is over it. There was a time when the square might have been preserved as ft memorial to Yesterday. This Is no longer possible. Washington is growing, moving and marching out that way. In a few .rears historic Lafayette square will be dominated either by great commercial or official buildings.

Jean David Nau, alias Francis L'Ollonais (a name by which he Is best known), the French pirate, were strikingly similar. Both were terrible scourges for the Spaniard, and to both might fairly be applied the characterization of "archfiend." But the ends of their careers were very different. Morgan lived to be restored to some semblance of respectability (undeserved as it was), and after dying peacefully was burled amid great pomp and circumstance. Fate saw to It that L'Ollonais should be adequately punished for his crimes, and he died as horrible a death as any' of his hapless victims. L'Ollonais was transported In his youth froni his native land to the West Indies as an Indented laborer, and after serving his time joined the' buccaneers who were Just then rising to power on the Island of Hlspanlola. He served for a time as a sailor and conducted himself with such skill and courage that the French governor of Tortuga Island gave hlra" command of a ship and sent him. out on a privateering voyage against the, Spaniards. Then he stole a vessel and "went on account," but still prey ing upon the Spanish settlements. His first great success was the capture of the town of Mnracaibo ID South America, which he held for four weeks while bis wild followers pillaged and murdered. The spoil from this town was the vast sum of 200,000 pieces of eight, besides great quantl ties of silks, jewelry, and plate. Ti the credit of this pirate It must be sal* that he played square with his men Each man was given a Just share of the loot, a share was allowed for the next-of-kin of each man killed, and those of the pirates who lost an eye or a limb received extra rewards. L'Ollonais was as daring as he was cruel. At one time his ship was wrecked, and although most of the pirates got to shore they were Immediately set upon by a party of Span lards, and all killed except £he leader who was badl.v wounded. He escaped by smearing blood and sand^ over his face and hiding among his dead com rades. Then, disguised as a Spaniard, he entered the city of Carapeche, and with sardonic Joy watched the celebration of the citizens over his death! Another shipwreck on the coast of Honduras proved his undoing. He was captured by the Indians who, In the words of Esquemeilng, the famous historian of the buccaneers, "tbre htm In pieces alive, throwing his body, limb by limb. Into the fire and his ashes Into the air to the intent that no trace or memory might remain of such an Infamous human creature." ,>©. Wwt.m N*wap*p*r gjflyji. . 3 of Beauty DIAMONDS!
