was given a more substantial token OF
approval than mere applause, those
present, from General Washington down
to the plainest citizen, cheerfully con-
tributing to a collection for his benefit.
The son of the sailor boy David Van
Arsdale is now a night inspector in the
Barge Office in New York.
Another incident, related by an eye
witness of the scene, may serve to illus
trate the reluctance with which the
British quilted their hold of the city
which they had so long claimed as their
own. By the conditions agreed upon
the city was to be surrendered at noon,
but an impatient shopkeeper in the
of Chambers street an
ticipated the arrangement and hoisted
the American flag during the course of
the morning. Provost Marshal Gun
ningham hastened to the spot and con-
ironted the proprietor. ''Pull down
that flag, he exclaimed, with an oath;
'the city belongs to the British till
loon." The man objected, hesitated,
md was on the point Of yielding, when
he good woman of the house came to |
he rescue. "The flag shall not come
lown, said she. Cunningham stormed |
md swore, and finally attempted to tear
lown the colors with his own hands; but
he woman assailed him so vigorously
With broomstick, striking a cloud of
'owder from his wig at every blow, that
Ie was forced at last to abandon the field
nd leave the American flag unmolested.

Bregman, the Cleveland diver, tells
the following story: " Once I went up
to Twin Lakes, near Gilead, Mich, to
dive for the body of a man who had gone
in swimming with two companions. I
found an immense concourse of people
on the shore. The grief-stricken mother
had erected a stand, and was doing an
immense business in sandwiches and
circus lemonade. A colleetion'of.$400 for
