SION
To The Sea Shore-Old Point Com.
fort and Fortress Monroe via
c. " o. Ry., Thursday,
LII. nn..l

July 22nd, 1897.
Among the numerous resorts of
the Atlantic coast none has main
tanned its supremacy like Old Point
Comfort. An opportunity to visit
1t at popular priced round trip
rate is always taken advantage of by
thousands from the West who pre-
fer it, and rightly too, above the
other resorts. The Hygeia Hotel for
many years has held its place in
popular favor and Is so well known
as to need no description, but many
who have not visited Old Point
Comfort since the Chamberlin has
reached completion will be delight
ed with this magnificent hostelry,
immense in its proportions, luxur-
iously furnished, commanding a po-
sition at Old Point Comfort which
gives to Its guests an extended view
of Hampton Roads Harbor and the
broad Atlantic. Both the Hygeia
and Chamberlin are within stones
throw of Fortress Monroe, the great
training school of the United States
Army whose era nd mounts, reviews
and dress parades are never fail
ing source of interest to visitors.
Some representative ship of the
United States Navy, as we'll as some
other foreign navies, is nearly al
ways anchored in front of Old Point
Comfort while short excursions, can
be made TO the Soldiers home and
Indian Normal school at Hampton
40 minutes ride by electric cars) or
to the Gosport Navy yard at Ports
mouth, opposite Norfolk, Va, as
minutes by steamer) or to Ocean
View across Hampton Roads (2O
minutes by steamer) or to Virginia
Beach Preached by rail in 30 min
utes from Norfolk) or to the Three
Million Dollar ship yards and the
Foreign and Domestic shipping at
Newport News Preached in 25 min
utes by train.) These attractions,
with its surf bathing and fishing,
gives a greater variety to the scenes
around Old Point Comfort than to
any other American Sea Shore re-
sort. The Hygeia and Chamberlin
make rate of ST. per day for
this occasion. Round trip tickets
will be sold for the f. +. V Limited
leaving Cincinnati 1901 noon and
for the Atlantic Express leaving

for the round trip. Tickets will be
good returning within 10 days from

tinuous passage TO Old Point Com
fort on the going trip. On the re-
turn trip stop over privileges will
be granted at Richmond, Va, Nat

famous mountain resorts. The
scenery of the Chesapeake q Ohio
along the Ohio, Kanawha, New and

varied nature as to well repay one

PLANTED OLD GLORY,
Joseph keefer Tells Thrilling s ory
of Raising the First American
Flag in Alaska

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 26.-Of all
the stories told and written of Alaska
since the Klondyke fever set in there is
none more interesting than that of Joseph
Keefer, resident of this city, who had
the honor of assisting in the planting OF
the first American fiaS on Alaskan soil.
Mr.. Keefer accompanied the Seward
State Department expedition to Alaska in
1867 as aid-de-camp to Captain T. E.
Ketchum. The flag that was unfurled
when Alaska was officially and formally
taken possession of was the first ever
hoisted over Russian America. AS far as
can be learned Mr.. Keefer is the only sur
viving mem ber Of the famous expedition,
having ben at the time the trip was m ad G
into the far north a mere lad of II, while
the other members of the party were well
advanced in years.
According to the best records obtaina Bile
the last member of the party to perish
was Joe Rothrock, young photographer.

second trip to Alaska and while dying Ee
was wrapped in blankets and placed by
the furnace, although the heat or summer
was almost unbearable TO the ordinary
person. No explanation was ever offered
for his strange condition.
Mr.. Keefer now resides here. In 1894
he was prompted to institute search for
the historic bit of bunting which he car
ried with him to Alaska. Greatly to his
sa isfaction the flag was found in a box
behind the or -ginai Declaration of Inde-
pendence in the State Department. Upon
being unfurled it was discovered that a
large portion of the blue field had been
entirely destroyed by moths, while the
remainder OF the ensign was in Compare
lively perfect condition. 1t seems that
the portion OF the flag which had been de-
stroyed was once saturated with human
bloc. The story behind this blood stain
Is narrowing. As told by Mr.. Keefer, it is
as follows:
When the United States took posses
sion OF Alaska it was inhabited by low
class OF people, and aside from the half
civilized natives there were numerous
ticket-ot-leave men and ex-convicts from
Russia. This latter class knew very we'll
that when the Americans came upon the
scene they would have to seek other
climes, and therefore tried to make our lot
as disagreeable as possible. They told the
credulous natives that We were coming to
