George S. Hazen; brother
of General W, B. Hazen,
and is now at the residence
of Captain Hazen's daugh-
ters, Miss Agnes Hazen and
Mrs. Grace E. Adams, near
Meeker, Colorado, says the
Springdale News.
This is one of the his
torical flags of the earlier
part of our civil war of
1861-65, and is one of the
first if not the very first flag
to represent the Southern
Confederacy, and foated
over Fort Sumpter, April
IA, 1861, and was unfurled
by General Beauregard on
that day upon the surrender
of the fort by the United
States troops to the Con-
federate commander, which
makes it a relic of more than
ordinary interest.
The old flag was made
of bunting of fifteen white
and blue stripes running
lengthwise. The fl a G i s

tation of a palmetto tree
in the center, with a half
moon or crescent overlooking
it, and fifteen stars running
clear across the flag in the
form of a crescent, repre-
senting the fifteen states
that were supposed to have
seeded from the general
government. This flag was
constructed by the ladies
of Charleston, South Car
olina, and by them presented
to General Beauregard, with
the the request that he un-
furl it and keep it floating
over the fort until the Con-
federacy should be recog-
nlzed as an independent
government by all the ma
tions of the world; but
when it became evident that
the Union forces would re.
capture the post, it was
hauled down by the same
hand that unfurled it, and
returned to the ladies for
safekeeping. These ladies'
feared for it's safety, and
lest it might be discovered
in their possession, placed
it in charge of a faithful
old negro woman, who
afterwards presented it to
Lieutenant Henry e. Hazen.

Another town that promises
much was added to the increasing
list Of Shreyeport's tributary towns
yesterday by the opening Of Horn
beck, the new division station on
the Kansas City, Pittsburg and
Gulf Railway The new town is in
Vernon parish, 100 miles south OF
Shreveport, and is situated mid
way between Shreveport and Port
Arthur.
The opening was a complete sue
cess. Over $4,000 worth Of lots
were sold. 1t was celebrated by an
excursion from Kansas City to

TOWNSHIP comprises 100 acres, 1t Is
In the center Of the railroad com
panys extensive timber holdings,
which are larger In Vernon parish
than anywhere else on the line.
The townsite slopes easily up from
the track, making the drainage all
that heart or sanitary science could
desire. New buildings are in pro-
cess Of construction The company
is building sidewalks along the prin-
opal streets, grading all the streets,
and work on the new round house,
shops, station, etc. will soon begin,
AS a divisional station, Hornbeck
will profit largely by the railway
