Several times he has escaped death by little stort of a miracle. ' The first exciting episode in his ca- reer occurred in 1880, when he was serving as lieutenant on H. M. 8. Monarch, near Gibraltar. The weath- er was thick and .tormy, and early one morning a Glasgow steamer, the Ettrickdale, was stranded off Europa Point, on the Spanish coast, about three miles from Gibraltar, heavy seas breaking over her. All attempts of her crew to'get the vessel off failed. The Monarch had gone out for tar- get practice, and had left all her boats but one small one behind. See- ing the almost hopeless position of the stiamer, the commander of the Monarch called for volunteers, and Lieut. Jellicoe and seven seamen got into the small boat and pulled for all they were worth. The boat, how- ever, could not live in such a moun- tainous sea,.and was quickly capsiz- ed. Fortunately each man had don- ned a cork jacket before starting, and Sir John all of them were washed ashore more dead than alive." TFiaally the crew of the steamer were rescued by a and his gallant comrades being re- warded by the Board of Trade with medals. The story of how he lost the medal is the story of This occurred on June 22nd, 1893, when he was in commanc. of Admiral Try- on's flagship Victoria, which was run into and sunk by the Camperdown in the Mediterranean, resulting in ths loss of 300 lives.

The press gang was an institution which flourished in Great Britain in the olden times when impressment was the mode resorted te for man- ning the navy. The practice, which had not only the sanction of custom, but the force of law, consisted in seizing by force, for gervice in the royal navy, seamen, river watermen, and si time lanismen. The pYress &£ang, an armed party of reliable men commanded by officers, usually pro- ceeded to such heuses in the seaport towns as were supposed to be the re- sort of the gea-faring population, laid violent hands on all eligible men, and conveyed them forcibly to the ships of war in the harbor. -Mitigations of the harsh laws on the subject were frequently introduced.
