OLD GLoaY's PERPETUAL YOUTH.
The flag at the Capitol Is Onen re
paired. but Never Renewed.

The flag at the Capitol Il Onen RE
paired. but Never Renewed.
1t is question which no one
can answer what becomes of the
flags which fly session alter SEES
sion over the two Houses of Con-
gress. The life of flag exposed
at such height to the tattering
winds naturally cannot be long.
Every now and then after storm
a great rent is seen in "Old
Glory" as it proclaims from the
housetop that our statesmen are
celebrating. Sometimes a stripe
is gone, or perhaps half the stars
may be torn away. Then in a
day or two it flies again with all
its stripes and its stars, as if it
had never suffered by the storm.
l asked what became of the old
flags. Nobody knew.
What do you do with themp
Nothing.
They are the same flags. That
is, there are no new ones. The
old flags are simply mended. There
is a patriotic poem in this. "Old
Glory" has perpetual life; that
is, the "Old Glory" that presides
over the capitol. When stripe
blows away new one is put in its
place, and the same old flag is
pulled to the head of the staff. If
it is the blue field and stars that is
gone this is reproduced. If only
a rent, it is darned; if hole it is
patched. Then another stripe
goes, and new one is added. So
on, the old portions are blown
away, the newer standing until
the new becomes the old in turn
and tears away, and in endless
revolution the old flag lives on. 1t
is always the same flag, but year
to year its entire texture is changed
and the small bits are blown away
by the winds, and other small bits
take their place. There is no
graveyard for sold Glory" 1t
has perpetual life. No one can
tell when the flag which floats over
the Senate was bought 1t is still
a perfect flag, but no part of what
was first drawn to the masthead is
now in Washington

Legislature Failed to Do Things
Specially Required Of It.
REVENUE BILLS ARE SHELVED
No senator Is Yet Elected and the
Governor Refuses TO Call
Special session.

Cincinnati, March 17.-The CONNER
cial Gazette special from Frankfort.
Ky, says:
The legislature adjourned tonight, af-
ter 60 days Of disgraceful chickering's.
The legislature failed to accomplish the
two important acts it had before it
the election of United States senator,
and the enactment OF legislation to save
the states financial reputation.
Governor Bradley has refused to or
der special session, and the state is in
bad way. The senate special COM
mittee backed down today and offered
a report that was so mild, when the
threats to unseat the governor are con-
sidered, that even the democrats
laughed.
BY a vote Of 10 to IA the report was
adopted.
In the house a resolution was passed
| denouncing the lawlessness and in
| dorsing Governor Bradley to the end.
| The troops had dress parade tonight
and leave tomorrow. Lieutenant Gov
ernor Worthington today issued the
call for a special election April IL to
fill the vacancy in the senate caused by
Senator Weissinger's death. Senator
Walton and Senator Jones will resign
tomorrow, and the governor will order
a special election, refusing to recognize
their expulsion by the senate.
When the senate convened this even
ing the republicans, led by Deboe, made
a fight to bring up the revenue bills for
consideration but the democrats pre-
vented legislation by hlibustering. An
effort was made to unseat President
Worthington and place Senator Goebe
in the chair, in order that he might pre-
vent any consideration of the revenue
bills, and it was only prevented by thu
republicans agreeing to allow the sen
ate to receive the report Of the specia
| committee, and then the democrat
were to assist the republicans and TAX
up the revenue bills.
After the report of the special com
mittee was heard the republicans agail
p, attempted TO bring up the revenue bills
= but were prevented by the democrati
, majority, and the house and senate ad
a iourned sine die.

quite as good as that of Minister de
LONE.
The reading of the Quesada state
ment proceeded. giving details of al
legged atrocities by General Weyler. the
branding of women on their breasts.
the assauting of defenseless women,
etc.
At the close of the statement, Sena-
tor Hale rose to state that he had this
horrible recital read in full to show that
such awful atrocities would not be ac-
cepted as true unless accompanied by
evidence.
Senator Morgan read further evil
dences of the Spanish cruelty in Cuba.
One referred TO the massacre of seven
young men VINO were stood against a
wall and shot to pieces by a regiment Of
soldiers.
"Who is responsible for that state
ment?" asked Senator Hale. rs any
name signed to that recital?'
Senator Morgan said it was taken
from the recital of an eyewitness given
in a New York paper. The massacre
of students was historically beyond a
question.
Senator Morgan went on to read from
personal letters received by him giving
the experience of men in Cuba. The let
ters told Of violations of girls and the
massacre of women and children. Six
men gathering bananas were killed and
bananas stuffed down their threats as
a Joke. A Cuban general was stripped
and exhibited before crowds of women
then killed and his body dragged mile
These atrocities were given with great
-. to , f1,a a
servation of the writer's Of the letters.
Senator Morgan said the letters dis
closed the existence of a bloody war
and it was the duty Of congress to rec
ognize that kind Of war as existing. The
senator said he had received posta
cards from the north bidding him tC
leave the country and console with th'
negro Maceo. But he could not be di
verted by these insults or by the attach
of some newspapers which asserted hi
was seeking a war with Spain in orde
to bring about the restoration of 5ilVe
coinage.
Senator Morgan said he believed tn
president should approve the course o
congress, but if he did not congress
would have discharged it's duty to tn
people, and the responsibility would b
left with the president. He did no
wish to give Spain any cause of com
plant and he therefore favored tn
mild, firm resolutions now pending
And yet, added he, in closing, Il hav
not doubted that any action woui
cause this fanatical nation to take u
the gauge of war.
Senator Mills gave notice that h
would follow on the Cuban question tC
- morrow.
, At $40 p. m. the senate adjourne
until tomorrow.

DON'T HAVE TO LIFT YOUR HAT
Spokane Man Has n Patent of Pc
cuItar Design.

Washington, March Thames c.
Boyle, an eccentric citizen of Spokane.
Wash, conceived the idea of doing away
with the polite lifting of the hat by
manual force by a man when he passes
a lady friend. as at times much incon-
venience is incurred by having to lift
the hand from the pocket to the head,
especially in very cold days and when
a mans hands are engaged.
A patent was recently granted to him.
which Boyle claims will make hat lift
ing unnecessary. All man has to do
is to slightly nod his head. There is a
click and Boyle's mechanism, which is
in the interior of the tile, starts The
hat is suddenly hoisted as if by magic
a foot above the head, where for mo-
ment it poises and describing semi
circle, settles back on the Uranium.

In the house Mr.. Barnett offered a res

Is NOT GUILTY OF IMMORTALITY
Pastor Brown Acquitted ON One
Charge by the Council.

San Francisco March 1.-THE council
that is sitting in judgment on Rev. Or.
Brown has acquitted the accused pastor
on one charge. The councilmen came to
the conclusion that Brown was not gull
ty of any immoral conduct with Mrs.
M. A. Stockton. They based their opin-
ion on the following facts:
First-That Mrs Stockton was not
woman whose testimony could be taken
for the truth. Second-That there was
no evidence introduced that was strong
enough in a legal sense to convict the
pastor. Third-That he had shown Mrs.
Stockton great kindness in the way that
a Christian minister should, and that
she had taken advantage of that kind
ness.
The council excused Browns actions
after the charges had been made public
on account Of his quick temper. With
regard to the young lady whom, 1t is
alleged, he threatened, the council says:
1--WE find his conduct to have violated
all rules which should control the ac-
lions Of a gentleman and Christian min
| lister, and we censure him for 1t. while
we gladly recognize the kindly and
manly words of appreciation and rep
aration offered by him to the young
lady in our presence
The council says Browns explanation
Of the payment of money to Mrs. Da-
wilson is unsatisfactory, but there is
not trace of suspicion in the minds
of the council concerning the hitherto
stainless reputation of DR.. Brown
Brown and his friends consider the YER
dict a complete vindication.
The Post says: "A verdict has beer
reached in the case of Rev. c. O. Brown
and that the committee on finding sucf
has declared the minister guilty of con
duct unbecoming a Christian minister
The committee finished its report toda,
and presented it to the council. The re
port, which is about 1000 words il
length, will not be made public until af
ter it has been submitted to the Con
gregational church, which will probabl,
be tomorrow night. 1t is believed tn
report of the council will eXonerat
Brown on the charge of immortality, bu
will find him guilty of unministeria
conduct. Upon the precise wording c
the report the unministerial conduc
specification will depend upon Brown

fix the punishment, but even if no per
