Before Judge York yesterday the case d
Blair ". Van Fleet was on trial This b .
suit to declare Hen or interest In certain
property belonging to the defendant to -
cure money claimed to BE- due BY the plain
tin. The case y somewhat complicated.
Blair sold Van Fleet ten acres Of land. Al
the time Blair was owing Van Fleet $500
and Van Fleet held Blair's wtfe's note for
$3.50. Van Fleet agreed to give Blair his
note and to assign to Blair the wife's note.
He did mot do this, but instead Cancelled
the mortgage securing the wife's note
which he had promised to amign to Blair.
The intent Of the Transaction II hardly
plain, but may become 90 before the end
Of the trial. The parties are relatives and
have evidently become mixed In their bust
ness dealings.

sALUTIN0 THE FLAG
An Interesting Ceremony Used in the
Army .s;>

Army 's;s
Soldiers Of all nations love the nag under
whose folds they fight, and those OF the
United States are far from lacking In
patriotism and a reverence for Old Glory.
In times past, however, this devotion has
only manifested itself on the field Of battle
or on shipboard under the enemy's guns.
when almost no end Of daring deeds have
been done to save the colors from capture
or dishonor.
Away from the smoke Of battle the nag
received no special homage. save the firing
of the sunset and sunrise guns. Now,
thanks to ceremonies devised by Captain
William r. Hamilton of the Seventh artil-
lery, United States army, the flag is treated
with proper military reverence; Vt Is not
dropped, as IL shot away from the staff. but
comes down with graceful dignity.
While different regimental commanders
had devised different ways Of honoring the
flag, It was not until recently that the army
regulations, following the suggestions Of
Captain Hamilton, laid down q law upon
the subject The following ID the ceremo-
NOUS manner in which at retreat" the
nag il lowered at an army post:
The entire garrison Is paraded near the
nag while the trumpets play retreat. As
the last notes die away and while the deep
boom Of the retreat gun awakens the
echoes, the nag halyards are cast loose and
the immense garrison nag u pulled slowly
and gracefully down the tapering stan, its
red and white stripes fiuttering in the
breeze as II keeping time to that grand old
air, 1.-THE Star Spangled Banner" which
the band lie playing in ito highest style. A

being carried to and from the drill field
the sentries before whose posts they are
borne salute them, and every man who
passes them either raises his hat or gives
formal salute.
While General Charles King was colonel
of the Wisconsin guard he instituted very
pleasing custom, which Is followed by
many army regiments. At the close of reg
