CAN'T TACK NAMES ON FLAG
So the Silverites Put Bryan's Name
on a Streamer.

Galesburg, Ill. Oct 19--Ten days
ago a crowd Of free silverites raised a
pole near Appleton. ten miles east Of
here, and on the pole they placed a
streamer above the American flag. This
streaner has a broad red border, a blue
center and white letters, spelling Bry-
an. The pole is sixty feet high, and,
the country there being fat the
streamer is visible for long distance
The appearance Of the streamer To the
people going by on a train is red, and
this has given rise to a story that req
flag was put up above the American
one. The pole was erected in a private
yard
The Santa Fe trainnen are very in
dignant over the affront to the Ameri-
can flag. and threaten they Will cut the
pole down the first time they have a
Iayover there They say the red in the
streamer is much more readily seen
than the colors it surrounds Besides
they don't like the idea Of the American
flag being below Bryan's name.
The excuse given by the free silver
men is that they were not allowed to
put the name on the American dag, and
SO they put it on the streamer. "a con-
ductor said tonight that the streamer
had caused much talk along the Santa
Fe. lit is believed demand will be
made on the crowd at Appleton to put
the streamer under the American flag

y NOVEL PARISH PAPER.
From st. Andrews Cross

The last ten years has seen n great in
crease in the number of parish papers.
Doubtless there would be hundreds more
If the possibilities Of making ends meet
dld not SEEN so remote in most smaller
parishes. Perhaps bit of my own ex-
pericncc may suggest to some Of the read
crs of st. Andrews Cross how they may
secure all the advantages of parish pa

| made arrangements with the editor by
which ! was to hecome responsible for
the colt..nii, and to furnish the copy" 70
fill it each week. 1t was hcade'. the
"Church Column, and in it were given
the order az services at the Church and
other parish notices. with such articles
concerning Shc parish or the faith as |
saw fit 90 write. The advantages of
such column of II parish paper were
many. II was II great deal cheaper: there
was nc work of getting advertisements
or mailing papers: it appeared weekly in
stead of monthly; it reached not only the
mensberS of the congregation, but nearly
every one in the village Country people
generally read every line in the local paper
and the Church Column reached
| many more people than II parish paper
could possibly have done. 1t gave an air
| of Importance to the church, which
counts for il great deal in villages and
| small towns.
Moreover, the column was Il benefit ia
the paper in which it was published, by
| increasing its circulation. Why so sim
pie and feasible Il plan has not been
| adopted elsewhere is certainly strange.
OF course, it is only possible in small
| places with weekly newspapers. If any
one else has tried the plan it might serve
| to extend it if the result of such trials
were sent 10 the editor of St Andrew :
| Cross.
