Dissertation orthe Flag.

A bill was reported in the national
house of representatives yesterday which
every citizen who reveres the starry ban
ner of national freedom will endorse. 1t
reads:
BE 1t enacted by the senate and house
OF representatives of the United States,
IN congress assembled. That any person
or persons who shall use the nation al
flag. either by printing. painting, or
affixing on said flag, or otherwise attach
ing to the same, any advertisement for
public display or private gain, shall be
guilty of misdemeanor. and on convic-
ton thereof in the district court of the
United States shall he fined in any sum
not exceeding $50 or imprisoned not less
than thirty days. or both. ut The discre
ton of the court.
III that bill passes it will strike a Rock
Island firm that has been guilty
for some time of dissertation of the
flag by displaying their firm name
in bold black letters upon it, thus
forgetting the patriotic reverence that
should he sho Sn the flag wherever
found, in order that 'busi ness" NAV
not be lost sight of. There are
business firms INSCRIPTIONS enough to
efface and deface the monument to the
memory of the beloved who have gone
beyond. in order to keep then selves con-
spicuous in the public eye. Advertising
like all things else has its proper chan
nels, and its proper modes, but there are
methods adopted in the interests of econ>
omy that are not proper. and not legiti>
mate. and for which nothing whatever
is gained either in reputation, or in dol
lars and cents.

The richest unmarried women in New
York-that is. rich now, andjn their own
right?
Well, to begin with, the fortunes of the
rich women in the metropolis have been
greatly exaggerated. There are not many
that enter the million mark, and as to the
hundred thousands-they do not tempt the
imagination as they once did. Neither are
they, to the rich woman herself, of the
same practical Importance since expendi-
ture has become so much more lavish than
1T was generation or so ago.
The richest unmarried women in New
York are probably the Misses Rhinelander,
who live in a big mansion, one OF the fine
old residences of the city, at the corner of
Fifth avenue and Washington square 1t

ANOTHER landmark is disappearing
with the tearing down of the William
Barn, tspelling it with big B out of re-
gard for its age.) Many years it stood

fair city was not growing but how now,
wanderer from home? When you return
where you were wont to stop and gaze at
can-can and circus advertisements, you
will find Z. S. Stamp Deputy Schultz
basking in the afternoon sun, and you
will lose your bearings. Long years ago
the old barn was the site of the town
pump where the Rebeccas from MANY
blocks around would meet to chat and
chatter. where the boys and girls would
slake their thirst on coming home from
school, and where the tillers of the soil
would find refreshment for man and
beast. This central station of our ancient
water works system contained well of
the purest, clearest, coolest water; the
handle and mouth of its pump extended
through the sides of the barn and over
onto the sidewalk. A hook was attached

while above these one read the warning:
Water that never fails,
Don't carry away the pals,
When done, please look,

Deafness is the result, and unless the in

Rev. FATHER PEIL of this city an
nounced from his pulpit on last Sunday
that IN the present controversy he is on
the side of the English language. The
announcement was not necessary, for anv
one who knows the reverend gentleman
and the school he manages will readily
concede that he has always held the same
views. The school is in charge of com.
petent teachers and all that could posi-
bly, be expected has been done to provide
the school with everything necessary to
accomplish good work. No one with any
regard for the rights OF private schools
could ever think of pronouncing the
results of the school referred to other
than satisfactory. Like all schools pub
lie and private it has not reached perfec-
ton but we oandidly declare that our
belief Is that it is making progressive
de yelopment. There is no law that could
interfere with it no matter what it's con-
dltlon might be, and there is certainly
no design anywhere even to criticise the
work so fairly, honestly and intelligentlv
conducted; and it is gratifying to feel
that the patrons OF the school have not
been made the victims of the too popular
dsiaslon that the state proposes to inter-
fere with the institution they so self sacri-
hc.ngly maintain. Their clergyman is a
gentleman of high character.and whatever
ny be his opinions on purely secular
education, he is too honorable and too
enlightened TO teach bis people that their
religion will be imperited il their Ian
guage Is not made predominant. He
knows religion is thought and feeling and
language only its feeble expression.
