French Revolution
the
A
S L O VENLY
unkempt lit-
tin dwarf-
scarce flv
foot tall with
bleared eyes peer-
ing forth from a
.blotched and pal-
lid face. Such was
Jean Paul Marat
ruler of France's
destinies at a day
when France was a slaughter house.
Tbo French Revolution was at Its
height. After throwing off the cruel
bondage of royalty under which they
had groaned for centuries the French
people beheaded their old tyrants the
aristocrats. Then the thirst for
blood being still unslaked they fell
to beheading each other. The "Reign
of Terror" set In. First the revolu-
tionists who believed In higher Ideals
and gentler methods were slain. Then
the more rabid revolutionists divided
Into several parlies or fuctions. And
whichever faction chanced at the mo-
ment to be uppermost executed mem-
bers of the others. One leader ater
ano'her arose to outdo his predeces-
sors In deeds of violence only to lose
his own life anl 'tower to some still
more murderous 1 r.i:igogue.
And the heart and soul of the Reign
of Terror was Marat. He was a Swiss
by birth and had at various times
been a scientist a literary man. a
physician and so says Carlyle a
horse doctor. When the revolution be-
gan he started a paper called "The
Friend of the People." It was prob-
ably the most scurrilous bloodthirsty
sheet ever published.
The revolution at that time had
not wholly thrown sanity aside.
Marat's arreat was ordered. He es-
caped and fled to the lowest slums.
There hiding In the sewers and cel-
lars he spent his time making friends
with the vile outcasts of the Paris un-
derworld and In preaching to them his
doctrine of wholesale murder. From
time to time as the revolution waxed
more fierce he would emerge from
biding with new plans for deeds of
violence. Each time the saner leaders
denounced him. But soon or late
they followed his advice. And thus
the revolution grew dally Into the
Reign of Teror.
At last It became safe for Marat to
come wholly out of seclusion and to
proclaim aloud by voice and by his
newspaper his Ideas for the death of
his fellowmen. The revolutionary
leaders feared and hated him. They
held him In contempt for his squalid
filth and his shrieking clamor for
blood nut they could no longer send
him Into biding. For the worst ele-
ment of the mob now ruled Paris.
And the mob adored Marat. He grew
In power and his most terrible orders
were obeyed.
He framed a law by which 400000
persons were arrested on suspicion of
being false to the revolution. Hun-
dreds more were guillotined at his
command. He even gravely expressed
a wish to behead an entire French
army of 270000 officers and men.
With Robespierre and Danton (both
of whom later fell victims to the guillo-
tine) he formed a triumvirate to gov-
ern the French people. For a time he
was the ruling spirit In this combina
tion. In vain did his opponents call
him "sewer rat" and even less com
pllmentary names. In vain did they
plot for his downfall. By sheer force
of evil he crushed all opposition. And
the crazy mob slavishly followed his
one virtue. By grafting as did other
revolutionary chiefs he might have
made millions of dollars. He died
with Just twenty-one cents.
Nature at last did what man could
not. to shorten the career of this "star
villain" of France's Scarlet Tragedy.
Marat's health gave out. He suffered
Intolerable pain. The only relief he
could get was to He for hours In a tub
of hot water. The great unwashed
was actually forced to bathe!
It was while he was wrapped In a
sheet In the steaming bathtub on the
evening of July 13. 1793 that a young
girl from the provinces called to see
blm. She said sbe had with her a
list of traitors' names and began to
read them to him. Marat listened
greedily. At the end he croaked:
"They shall die! Every one of
them!"
As he spoke the girl Charlotte
Corday stabbed him to the heart.
She had hoped to free France from a
tyrant. But she did more harm than
good. In the first place Marat had
already been dying from disease and
at most could have had but a few
weeks to live. Ia the second she
made the people regard a monster as
a martyr. And. for months the mo.s
atrocious cruelties were carried on.
tinder the pretext that Marat would
have wished them.
Instead of ending the Reign of Ter-
ror. Charlotte Corday had but In-
creased Its horrors. Here was a
wasted crime.
There Is said to be a woman some-
where wno can actually sharpen a
lead pencil so well that it doesn't

George Jeffrey The "Demon
Judge"
A
T E N-YEAR-
old English
schoolboy In
16.18 watch
ed a gorgeous pro
cession of robed
judges march past
his father's door.
Ho walked Into
the house with the
announcement that
he Intended to bo JUDGE JlfftttrS
a judge. Young as he was the
lad George Jeffreys was already
accustomed to have his way. He
bullied or cajoled his parents In
to giving him a costly school ed-
ucation and a law course that they
could til afford. Thus started a ca-
reer that was to coRt England many
hundred Innocent lives.
From the very first young Jeffreys'
was a tun n of mark. He was brilliant
strikingly handsome and had an al
most supernatural power of reading
other men's minds and purposes. Ha
took scant pains to study and neve
had much real knowledge of law. But
his cleverness supplied what hla
learning lacked.
He took up criminal practice and
handled cases no decent lawyer would
touch. He had a genius for making
Influential friends. Through these
friends and his own cunning be rose
fast In his profession. At last he at-
tracted the notice of the easy-going
unscrupulous King Charles II. Charles
despised Jeffreys as a man but was
not above using the young lawyer to
do his dirty work. A strong faction
of the people were the king's political
opponents. Jeffreys publicly declared
himself the people's friend and se-
cretly worked for the king. From
both factions he received high re-
wards. By the time he was thirty he was
a baronet and Chief Justice of Eng
land. Then he threw off all pretense
of decency. His drunkenness his In-
sane temper his Insolence made him
generally loathed. He could cry at
will. Often In court he would brow-
beat witnesses with a volley of filthy
bitter blasphemous sarcasm make
the Jury tremble by a maniac glare
of his black eyes foam at the mouth
with rage then break into a spasm of
loud laughter or Into a flood of tears.
When Charles II. died without di-
rect heir the dead monarch's younger
brother took the throne as James
II. Jeffreys had already curried favor
with James and now rose to higher
power than ever. James made him a
baron and showered favors on him.
It was during this king's reign. In
1685 thnt Jeffreys enacted his vilest
crimes. Tbe Duke of Monmouth had
laid claim to the English throne and
had fooled thousands of simple-minded
farmers and shop folk Into Joining
his rebellion. The uprising was crush-
ed. The duke was beheaded. His
captured followers were brought be
fore Jeffreys for trial. Then came a
horror still known as the "Bloody
Assizes "
Jeffreys (first making his work
easier by falsely hinting that those
who pleaded "guilty" would be spar-
ed) condemned to death 320 men and
boys. (Some historians say 700.)
These were hanged after a mere mock-
ery of a trial during which Jeffreys
alternately raved cursed drank wept
howled with laughter and behaved In
general like a madman. Even the
hardest-hearted servants of the king
were horrified by such slaughter the
more so stnoe many of the condemned
were innocent people who had taken
no part In the rebellion. Jeffreys was
ordered to be more lenient. So be
sent 841 of the remaining prisoners
Jo be sold Into slavery In India and
the Barbadoes and had the rest
scourged or thrown Into Jail.
Throughout tbe trial he spared aoy
one who could pay hlra a large enough
bribe. But few of these country folk
and tradesmen could raise such sums
as he demanded. For his work at the
'Woody Assizes" Jeffreys was made
Lord Chancellor of England. He
boasted that as chief justice be had
hanged more men and women than
all his predecessors put together.
Three years later the English peo
ple grew tired of James II. and over
threw him. He fled Into exile. Jef
freys knowing how he himself was
hated by the people tried to get se-
cretly out of England. He shaved
off bis shaggy eyebrows dressed as a
sailor and boarded an outgoing ship.
But on the eve of sailing he went
ashore and got drunk in a waterside
tavern. A poor writer whom he had
once unjustly punished recognized
him.
"It ts the bloody Judge!" shouted
the writer.
The mob hurled themselves upon
the disguised Jeffreys and were tear-
ing him to plvces when the authorities
rescued him. He was taken to the
Tower of London and Imprisoned
there until at the age of forty he
drank himself to death. Though he
had ten children his family soon died
out. His own name however ts still
remembered and cursed throughout
Eaglaad.
