approaching trains, while the coal engine
proceeded 10 Gordon Following the coal
train came three empty engines. and the
road being blocked by the cars ahead they
had to await their removal
The fiagman OF the third and rear engine
was sent back the road to flag another
train following. He had not gone far
when the freight came in sight He gave
the warning, but owing to the heavy grade
the train was unable TO stop and went
crashing into the three engines and cars.
The wreck Immediately took fire, and a

From the San Francisco Wasp.
We wonder if Henry George will
ever forget that memorable anniver-
sary of the Declaration OF Independ-
ence, when he delivered the better
part OF Il seventeen-column grafton
at the California Theater? He began
his grafton late in the afternoon.
After he had spoken for an hour or
SO the gallery began to manifest I'M
1nistakable signs ofimpatience. The
orator deemed it timely to skip a
hundred pages, and conclude with
the p%eroration. This was deftly
done, and then, getting fresh wind,
he began:
"a thousand years hence who will
fight for liberty?"
"a thousand years hence who will
write for liberty?"
GA thousand years hence who will
speak for liberty?"
The pause at the last liberty-in-
spring interrogatory was broken by
a voice in the gallery, which rang
thus through the theater:
"You will! Harry George"
There was an explosion of laugh
ter. The Eerriment spread to the
stage, and in the midst oft Harry
George foldedhis papers and ''siIent-
ly stole away"

The Language of the Flag.

The black flag is a sign of piracy.
To "strike 81 flag" is to lower the
national colors in token Of submits
sion.
The yellow flag shows a vessel to
be at quarantine, or is the sign of a
contagious disease.
Dipping the flag is lowering it
slightly and then hosting itagainto
salute a vessel or fort.
A flag OF truce is a white fagdis-
played to an enemy to indicate a de-
sire for a parle.y or consultation.
A flag at half-mast means mourn
ing. Fishing or other vessels return
with u flag at half-mast to announce
the loss Dr. death Of some of the men.
Ii the president ofthe 'nited States
goes afloat the American Tag is car
ried in the bow OF his barge or hoist
| ed at the main of the vessel on board
OF which he is.
The red flag is a sign of defiance
and is often used by r%evolutists. 10
our service it is a mark of danger,
and shows a vessel is receiving or
discharging her powder.
The white flag is a sign of peace.
After n battle parties from both sides
often go out to the field to rescue the
wounded and bury the dead under
the protection OF a white flag.
Flags are used as the symbol Of
rank and command, the officers us.
ing them being called flag officers.
Such flags are square to distinguish
hem from other banners.
