How 1t Was Appreciated by Richard
Henry SaHapa. the NoxoIiu4


Henry Savage, the Novelist.
Americans who are accustomed to seeing
the stars and stripes wave over their heads
without feeling any particular emotion, sim
ply considering it an everyday affair, will
no doubt learn something from an incident
Richard Henry Savage, the novelist, expe-
rienced while in Russia recently. His
daughter is the wife of a Russian noble
man living at Odessa, and some time ago
while visiting her Major Savage became
surfeited with seeing the flags OF all ma
items but America flying from the flagstaffs
of the ships in the harbor. In describing
his feelings to Governor Mount, recently,
he said 1t seemed as though no country was
too insignificant to be represented there
except the United States, and he searched
for days in the vain hope of seeing 1.-THE
star-spangled banner flying from even a.
masthead. Everywhere he saw the union
jack, the tricolor of France, and the en-
signs of Italy, Germany, Spain and Turkey,
but never the flag of America Finally one
day in the midst of his detection he saw an
insignificant little Standard Oil Company
tank steam into the harbor to load with
Russian petroleum for the English market
To his establishment, over its stern f1oated
the much-sought flag of his country. Such
q dirty and unsightly boat, in this country
he would have been ashamed to own but
at that moment it seemed to be fioa ting
palace. Running downstairs to his daugh-
ter, he said, excitedIy:
There's boat from the Uaited States in
port, and am going to shake hands with
her skipper"
His daughter, much surprised, ssid
why, it's only an old oil tank, and don't
amount to anything
Maybe not" replied Major Savage, "but
that's the first American flag I've seen
makes me think of home"
Making his way to the port the novelist
was rowed to the greasy lit-le craft, ami
on telling the captain who he was, found
warm welcome. Each of tham was horne
sick. and thoroughly enjoyed a social hour
spent in the stuffy little cabin over pipes
and enthusiastically American drinks
Major Savage maintains To th's day shat
this occasion was among the happiest he
ever experienced and taught him to fully
appreciate the beauties of his country's flag
as he never did before.

COURT HEARS ARGUMENT
SUIT OF WESLEY BURFORD AGAINST
ASSIGNEE JOHN ROBSON.
Grows Out OF the Mathews Ten-Cent-
store Assignment-Judge Woods
Names a Receiver.

In the Circuit Court, yesterday afternoon,
Judge Allen heard argument in the matter
of making permanent the order restraining
John Robson, assignee, from selling the
stock of Mathewss ten-cent store on
Washington street, at public auction. The
court took the question under advisement.
1t will be remembered that some time ago
Mathews made an assignment. Prior to the
assignment mortgages for about $4,000
were executed in favor of preferred credi-
tors. Recently Assignee Robson decided to
sell the stock in bulk. Suit to enjoin the
sale was brought by Wesley Burford, who
averred that at the time the assignment
was made there was an agreement that the
assignee should continue to sell the stock
at retail for the benefit of all the creditors.
Instead, he alleges, the assignee applied the
proceeds of sales to the preferred creditors.
Burford charges that if the stock is sold in
bulk the entire proceeds will be consumed
in paying preferred creditors. and that
there will be nothing left for others A
temporary restraining order was issued by
Judge Allen few days ago.

THE VACATION SCHOOL"
An Institution Which Promises to BE
Popular.

The vacation school, which is being con-
Quoted under the supervision of Miss Har-
riet Noble in No. school building, on West
Washington street, is Just now attracting
the attention of many OF the best people
of the city. The school is the result of
study and investigation on the part of Miss
Noble of the idea that manuel training is
making a higher place for itself year by
year in the curriculum of the public schools
1t was established with view to break
ing the long interval of vacation, which is
so demoralizing to the studies of the pupils
and at the same time making the studies
pleansant to the pupils
AS result there is not a text book In use
in the school. The studies taken up are:
Vocal music. wood carving. printing, nature
study. sewing and cooking. The children
have taken to the plan with even greater
enthusiasm than was anticipated and the
daily attendance has averaged over one
hundred since the school was opened July 5.
At the outset it was estimated that 5000
would be necessary TO carry the work
through the season until Aug. 5, and after
much difficulty the amount was raised
though not until Miss Noble had made 81
personal canvass among the business men
of the city for subscriptions. So far there
has been surprising progress made by the
pupils in all brapches OF study. In the

woman named Dinnin, who is employed at

to two men, but Immediately turned and
put UP a package for sale. He explained
