POINTS ABOUT FLAGS.
The Two-stnrred Flag on the Govern
Or's Island Tug.

Or's Island Tug.
The president of the United States
has his very gorgeous flag; the sec
retary of the navy and the assistant
secretary have their flags; admirals
have theirs, and so do ,commodores;
but it isn't known very widely, perhaps,
that generals of the army also have
flags, which are hoisted sometimes, says
the New York Sun. The other day the
Governors Island tug left the land
ing at the Battery with a little blue
flag on her center flagstaff; on the
blue field of the flag were two white
stars. The major general command
ing the department of the east was on
the tug, and the little blue flag sig
nailed the fact to all who saw it and
knew what it meant. To those who
didn't know what it meant, it seemed
as if the flag was simply the remains
of full-sized American flag, the rest
Of which had been blown away during
its faithful service. The flag gave
warning to the Governors Islanders
that the general was coming, and so let
them prepare to receive him as regula-
tions prescribe.
The blue flag with white stars hoist
ed at the bow of one of our men-of-war
when in port is the jack, and IS run up
on the jack staff. 1t is sign that the
vessel is in shipshape. When the ships
wash goes up to dry, the jack comes
down, because not even the best of
ships is in order with the wash flap
ping in the breeze. If the wash is up,
and the vessel suddenly has to fire a
salute, down comes the wash; because
a vessel with its wash up isn't in fit
condition to do the polite. AS soon
as the wash is hauled down, up goes
the jack, and the salute is fired. Then
down comes the jack, and up goes the
wash again.

The case of burial .ong delayed has

proved His GrUfYness.
The passengers on crowded cable
car the other day were immensely
"ticlled" at the discontinue of a con-
ductor, who was both rude and dis
obliging, but was cleverly circumvent-
ed, says the New York Commercial Ad-
vertiser.
The conductor handed five pennies in
change to well-dressed woman. She
requested that nickel be given TO her
Instead, as she had no purse and the
pennies would probably be lost. Gentle
as was the request, it irritated the con-
ductor, and he said: mo, 1 Ihave to take
pennies and you can do the same. They
will buy just as much as q nickel" The
woman remained silent and the COLI
ductor proceeded down the car.
At that moment man who was about
to pay his fare touched the lady's arm
and handed her q nickel, taking in ex-
change the pennies, which he immedi-
ately gave to the conductor. 1t was all
done quietly and quickly, yet many saw
the play, and all who did smiled with
satisfaction

BEATING a RAILROAD.
And 1t Was Done on the Roads Own
Tariff ut phat.

Eur1n TT UhUt.
''It is not often that railroad can be
beaten on its own passenger tariff
sheet" said salesman the other day,
according to the St. Louis Republic.
But there is vulnerable point once in
awhile, and the travelling man is not
SLOW to take advantage of it.
Such an instance happens on the
Burlington road between Leavenworth,
Kan, and St. Joseph, Mo-, and is OF al
most daily occurrence.
THE new man gets on the train at the
Kansas town and tells the conductor
that he wants to go to ST. Joseph. The
conductor pulls 81 miles from the mile
age book-the scheduled distance
gives him a transfer ticket to St. Joe,
and the new passenger takes up the fir
tation with the pretty girl just where
he left off and is satisfied. The old trav-
eler, however, tells the conductor that
he goes to Atchison, and the railroad
representative pulls 81 miles, returning
his book with transfer to Atchison via
Armour Junction. This is to compete
with the Missouri Pacific on the west
side of the river.
! AT Armour Junction the traveller
changes his mind, remains on the st.
Joe train and gives the conductor II
miles, the scheduled distance to the
Missouri city. He has complied with all
the requirements of the passenger tariff
and yet is ahead just 13 miles"

TEN INNINGS.
Marietta Cambridge Game Called on Ac-
count of Darkness with the Score Tie.

Marietta Cambridge Game Called on Ac-
count of Darkness with the Score a Tie.
Considering the three straight defeats
which the home team suffered last
week at the hands of Parkersburg,
there was good attendance at the
Marie a.Cam bridge game here Mon
day afternoon The contest was the
best in which the Marietta's have par
ticipated this season and was an en-
joyable exhibition of good ball playing.
At the end of the tenth inning, with
the score six to six, the umpire called
the game on account of darkness.
Elmer Spence. the young left handed
pitcher from McConnelsvil,e was given
trial by Marietta and put up good
stiff game which he should have won.
In the ninth inning Dolan batted for
him and pitched the remaing inning.
Williams, who pitched for Cambridge,
was relieved by Daniels, who did good
work.
The fielding work of the visitors was
much below that of the home team,
but they were in luck with their hits.
Shiers and McCammon both pounded
out home runs and the batting of
uutchins was also feature of the
game. Tie good work of Shortstop
Gilligan and Catcher Donahue was al
SO noticeable.

Another blow for silver.

The Peruvian goSernmeift in April
suspended the coinage of silver and de-
cided to prohibit its importation after
May 10. 1t is probable that Peru wished
to borrow money and that she could not
do so while on a silver basis without
paying very high rates of interest. The
Shylocks of Europe refused to loan at
low rates and to take chances of losing
more by the depreciation of silver than
they would gain from the interest. Oh.
these wicked. grasping Shylocks who
refuse TO loan money at a loss

TRUST IN THE SENATOR.
A Constituent Who Relied Upon His
Representative.

Hope springs eternal in the human
breast" even if it be the breast of
pessimist as apprehensive as Senator
Hale's constituent, of whom the fol-
lowing story is told by the Washington
correspondent of the New York Trib-
rne:
A local lawyer of some prominence,
who spends his summers at Castine,
on the coast of Maine, says he was
much entertained by one of the skip
pers living in that town whom he fire.
quently hired to take him out fishing.
This worthy was possessed of unusual
intelligence, a pretty wit, and had
creditable knowledge of current politics,
but he took a pessimistic view of the
state of the country.
On the money question he had
thought long and deeply, and had dc
veloped a system of his own for carry
ing on the financial affairs of the ma
ton. He had eccentric and original
views on the civil service, and in regard
to foreign matters he outjingoed the
jingoes.
The ideas and views of this fisherman
were so radically opposed to the ideas
and views of the man who represents
that region in the senate that it was
an invariable surprise to the visiting
lawyer when he wound up his remarks,
as he always did:
"Wal, they amt no sorter use in
botherin' my head bout these things,
fer ez long ez Gene Hale is in the SEN
ate he'll save the country from goin
Tor the dors."

Poor Prospects for Fruit and Crops of all
Kinds.
Wheat in this end of the County
never looked more promising than 1t
does now. Ground broke up fiue for
corn but the last rains have packed it
badly. The splendid bloom on the
apple trees caused farmers to feel quite
jubilant over the prospect of good
crop, but from some cause there will
not be more than one-fourth of crop.
Cherries only partial crop and no
pears Black berries are putting out a
fine blossom and is quite an Important
crop when they are plenty. Grass seed
sown on hill land last year seemed to
catch we'll but the winter killed out
the most of it. There has been a vast
amount of money paid for seed during
the past five years and ninety per cent
OF it has been a total loss. Very little
corn planted

HIS Subject.

The Pearly Nautilus, Not the Hen, Is
HIS Subject.
Scientists are Offering congratula-
tions to DR.. Arthur Wiley on the sue
cess of his search for the eggs CT the
pearly nautilus. The pearly nautilus
is the only living representative Of the
great group of extinct animals whose
shells are known as lmmonites, says
the Pittsburgh Dispatch. So rare were
specimens of the animal itself that %
years ago 500 was paid in London fer
two preserved in spirits. The structure
of the animal is extremely curious, and
an account Of it formed the first sc!er-
tifc memoir produced by Sir Richard
Owen. Setting out two wears and half
ago for the south seas, Dr.. Wiley pro-
cecded first to Palum, New Britain,
where he spent 4 year trapping the
nautilus in 70 iathoms of water and
dredging in vain for its eggs. lie then
tried a station on the coast Of New
Guinea, where lie was nearly drowned
by the capsizing Of his small craft.
After passing through New Caledonia
he arrived last summer in L.fu, one Of
the Loyalty islands, where nautilus can
be captured in three f0thoms depth
only. Here he constructed a large sub
marine cage, in which he kept specl-
mems of nautilus, feeding them daily.
In December last his patient cndeavors
were rewarded. Some of the nautilus
| spawned in tie cage, and lie was able
| to obtain abundant samples of the eggs.
Each egg is as large as a grape and is
deposited separately by the mother nau-
titus. 1t is expected that by this time
DR.. Wiley has obtained the young in
+ all stages Of growth.
