The announcement that Julius

Julius Caesar did not appear at first,

TIE Merr,,nac,s Flag.

Lieutenant Richmond Pearson Hob
son, in his personal story of ''The
Sinking of the Merrimac" in the Gen.
tury. says:
With regard to the ensign, had
asked Captain Miller about the ensign
of the Merrimac. He said that he had
already considered the matter, but had
found that the strippers had taken off
the ensign and the contents of the
signal-chest, and even the signal-hal-
yards. In fact, the men I'D been SO
keen for relics and souvel IS, that
nothing seemed to have escaped. He
said that he had, however, an enor-
nous flag, blue field, or background.
with Maine across it in large let
ters, which he proposed to have bent
on. But was particularly anxious
for large national flag, and put 1t
down on the list of items for the ex-
ecutive officer to get us on the New
York. I was little afraid they would
not let us have the flag, SO I q asked the
executive officer not to say anything
about it to the captain until we were
gone, and told him that should not

ing so could in any way affect the sue
cess of the effort, but that did wish
very much to hoist it after firing the
torpedoes as the vessel sank. The
executive officer was not convinced.
and his instinct of the risk involved
was true; for though the captain let
me have the flag without asking any
questions, and it was bent on the hal
yards at the bridge ready for hoisting,
it was never hoisted, for after the work
was done, and the Merrimac was sink.
ing, and strong impulse set in to
have the flag flying, it was clear, lying
at the muzzles of the enemy's guns,
that any move to hoist it would betray
our position and cost the life of all.
Responsibility for the group forbade
the attempt.

A Preacher on Fire.

At Chacombe Church, :. 1bury,
during the harvest thanksgiving ser
vices on a recent Sunday evening, ac-
cording to the Westminster Gazette,
the vicar, the Rev. G.. j. Harmon,
while holding forth with his usual
stirring eloquence, was suddenly
disturbed by several members Of
the congregation rising from
their seats and exclaiming' you're
on fire, sir" On putting out
the fire with his hand the reverend
gentleman thanked his informers and
then proceeded with his discourse as
if nothing had happened. Afterward
it was found that the long lawn sleeve
had been burned, the reporter pa
thetically adds. ''beyond repair
Congratulations were accorded to the
vicar on his escape. The flames
nearly reached his head before he dis
covered the cause of alarm.

There was recently in the jail in New
Brunswick, N. j., a woman who was arrest
ed while participating in wild drunken
orgies with a gang Of tramps in the woods
near the town. She appears to-day moth
ing but besotted hag, but was only a
short time ago the dutiful wife of respec.
table man and the mother of three beauti-
full children. Her father, who is said to be
living in u village in New York State, is a
highly respected minister of the Methodist
Episcopal Church. Her children are in an
asylum, and her husband is a wanderer in
the West. The cause Of her ruin was beer,
prescribed for her by the family physician
as a tonic. At first she refused to take 1t,
having always been teetotaler, but per-
suaded to obey the physician, she soon ac-
quired taste for the drink that speedily
developed into the overmastering appetite,
which has brought her and hers to this sad
condition
