Again the Southern Society.

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE IA
nous Southern Society OF New
York, to which all the prominent
men of the south belong, and
which, by the Introduction OF club
features in the last few years, has
been the Southern club, is again to
become the Southern society by
the elimination Of those features.
There has been some debate of late
among the members Of this or
ganization as to whether or not it
should be run purely as a social
society without club features, such
as a barroom, pool or billiards.
The question will be brought to
climax today at a meeting of the
society. The executive committee
unanimously resolved to report
that all club features which have
crept into the society within the
last four or five years shall be dis
continued. 1t recommends that
the organization return to the OBJ
iects for which it was organized,
viz, giving entertainments, hold
ing receptions, the annual and
other banquets, and creating and
maintaining a charity fund.

Hair-Splitting..Legal Decision.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., June A.
The Supreme court of the district
this morning dismissed Colonel
Ainsworth's petition for man.
damus on two grounds: First,
holding that the deputy coroner is
not a legal officer. This invaidates
the inquest as far as held; second,
that the right of a person to be
present at an inquest, in person, or
by counsel, is discretionary with
the coroner, and therefore
not a subject for mandamus.
In Difference to the decision of the
Supreme court of the District of
Columbia, that there is no such
an officer Of the District of Column
bia, as deputy coroner; DR.. Shatfer,
who had been conducting,
an inquest at Wizards hall, in
that supposed capacity, immedi-
ately adjourned proceedings until
tomorrow, at IL o'clock. A curious
point now developed, is that no
dead body has been viewed by a
legally constituted coroner's jury.
Unless one of the injured victims,
who are still lingering, should die,
it may be necessary to eXhume the

A Cutting Scrape.

1t is reported over the city that
two well known men, employees Of
two ice factories, had difficulty
last night, and rough and tumble
"scrap" ensued. In the combat one
of the participants was severely cut
by his opponent with knife. The
matter has been thoroughly looked
into by reporter for the LIGHT,
who failed to obtain any facts
other than the above. In some
cases, especially where an offender
has "friend" among the authori-
ties, it is utterly impossible for a
newspaper man to get statement
for publication, unless an arrest
has been made, and the evidence
heard in court by the reporter.

MGR. Satolli is Huffy.

NEW YORK, June 14--Fa ther
Corrigan, of Hoboken, is the au-
thority for the statement that Mgr.
Sotolli will not attend the COM
mencement exercises at Seton
Hall college, Orange, today. Father
Corrigan says Manager will take
this course because of the action of
Bishop Wigger, during the Papal
ablegate's recent visit to Hoboken,
and west Hoboken, in refusing
to. meet him at Father
Corrigan's house, and compelling
him to go to the Passionist mon
astery, at West Hoboken. 1t is also
reported that Bishop Wigger has
taken offense at the Archbishop's
course, and would sail for Rome,
on July Z, to lay the matter before
the Propaganda. Bishop Wigger's
friends, however, say that his visit
to Rome was arranged two months
ago, and that he will merely pay
a visit of ceremony to the Vatican,
and then make tour of Europe.
The trip was arranged purely for
the benefit of his health, and has
no other significance according to
Father Hoffschneider of st. Peter
and st. Paul's church at Hoboken'

Yellow Fever and Rsvolutionist
News,

PANAMA, June l4.-Foreign con-
suls stationed at Port Limon, Cos
ia Rica, state that yellow fever is
prevalent at that port. Steamship
companies here have consequently
ordered their vessels not to call at

ties admit that there lisa unusual
amount of bilious remittant fever
in Port Limon, and that in
many cases the persons who
have been attacked have died.
Stringent sanitary measures have
been adopted by the Port Limon
authorities, and it is expected that
the epidemic will soon disappear.
General Pierola, eX-president of
Peru, has embarked on board of
the KOslos Line Steamer Seteos for

OUR U. S. FLAG.
Celebrating the Anniversary Today

WASHINGTON, June l4.-At the
instance of the Pennsylvania
society of Colonial Wars, the
Worlds fair in Chicago and the
schools of almost half the country
are today celebrating the Column
bian year anniversary of the adopt
ion of the American flag. About
or 6 years ago the public schools
in Massachusetts, at the sugges-
ton of the Board of Education, be-
gan to celebrate the anniversary,
some simply with recitations and
declarations, others with appro-
pirate historical papers,processions
and singing of patriotic songs.
From the Old Bay State the inno-
walton spread rapidly through
the New England States until
now it has become a practice, and
almost all the district and many of
the private New England schools
commemorate the day in one way
or another. Many of the Western
and some of the Southern States
officially recognize the day. lndi-
vidual teachers in other states pro-
coed on their own initiative and
pay tribute in a diversity of man.
ners to the occasion, many of them
receiving assistance from local
posts of the Grand Army of the
Republic.
Early in June, 1777, while wild
rumors of an invasion from Cana
da by an immense army under
Burgoyne and of a movement by
Lord Howe on the Quaker City it
self wer. circulating, committee
was appointed to study designs for
a national flag. Concerning the
membership of this committee
little is actually known. Still this
much is history, that stern old
John Adams, the austere Puritan
of whilom Massachusetts, Bay col
ony, was it's master spirit.
After numerous sessions, during
which the banners of various colo
MES and the representations of the
larger colonies in the Continental
army was carefully scrutinized, the
committee made its report on the
memorable June II, the coming
anniversary of the brilliant Ma
poleonic victories of Marengo and
Friedland, and of the birth of Har-
riet Beecher Stowe. 1t recon-
mended:
"That the flag of the thirteen
| United States be thirteen stripes,
alternate red and white; that the
union be thirteen stars, white in a
blue field, representing a new con-
| ISOLATION"
This report was accepted unani-
mously and without discussion. A
sample flag was made at once of
silk and was displayed in Congress

thirteen stars were arranged as
the circumference of a circle. Re-
cords of the session of the Flag
| Committee are wanting, and con-
sequently some points about the
details Of our national ensign are
matters open to question, though
most were explained by subse-
| Quent statements.
