CARTER, President \ , H. N. FOLK, N.: EXPLAINING "JACK" IN FUG Origin of Emblem of the BHtish Empire Goes Back to the Days of Plate Armor. The Star-Spangled Banner" explains itself; like the "tricolor" of France. But who put the Jack in Union Jack? This curious term, which Is the only name t|y which we know the British flag, has been the subject i of much surmise; but so unique is its j history that you would never guess it | tn o fttniicon/J TTftorC I ui a uuvuouuu j vu&w In ancient times every English soldier in the field wore the protecting "Jacque" or surtont (over all), which was a garment of padded leather interspersed with pieces of plate armor, upon the breast the crimson cross of J St George. When the soldiers had I occasion to board a ship their Jacques were placed next each other along the I bulwarks of the ship in the same way that the Romans arranged their shields on board their galleys. The jacqnes so afforded the men protection against the arrows of their | adversaries on the water, and by their device npon the outer side proclaimed the nationality of the ship. Excepting the king's own ship, which flew the royal arms on a silken saili the Jacques ! bore the only indication of the nation- j ality of a vessel. In the course of time, when the j Jacques were not longer needed along the bulwarks, a solitary Jacque was i probably displayed at the bowsprit, and so the name "Jack" came into use j for the flag that superseded it. In 1801 the three kingdoms of England, Ireland and Scotland were formally united and the British flag made a combination of the cross of St George for England, of St. Andrew for Scotland and of St Patrick for Ireland. It was this union which ijade the British flag the "Union Jack." Reliable Information.

With a view to gathering information, the tourist addressed himself to ! a man in the crowd: "Say, mister, I suppose in an old place like this containing so many timber-fronted houses, you often have a fire?' "Pretty often," assented the man. j "How often, now, does a fire occurf , asked the American.
