MONTEJO'S FLAG.
Belongs TO the Government and VIII
Become Part of the ofBcial
Archives.

Claims are made in certain quarters
to the possession of the flag captured by
Admiral Dewey from the flagship of the
Spanish feet at Manila. These claims
seem to be without foundation. Sec
tion 1854 of the revised statutes pro-
vides: That the secretary of the navy
shall cause to be collected and trans
mitted to him at the seat of govern
ment all flags. standards or colors cap
tured from enemies of the United
States" The following section directs
hip to deliver them to the president for
the purpose of being preserved and
displayed" under the direction of the
president. These laws are mandatory
and must be obeyed by the president, as
well as all laws. by the humblest citizen.
Before these flags can pass out of the
possession of the government a special
act of congress is required, and as proof
of the correctness of this statement, a
measure is DOW pending in congress au-
thoriZing the president to return cap
tured confederate flags. Several futile
attempts in this direction have been
made, but the flags still repose in the
basement of the war, state and navy
building. where they will in all proba-
bilty be joined by the flags captured at
Manila and elsewhere during the prog
ress of this war.

Origin of the Cocktail.

1t ts asserted that a certain Col Car.
tor, not Of CartersvllIe, but cf CuIpcp-
per Court House, Va. belongs the hon.
or Of inventng the cocktail, and this is
how it all happened: Near Cnlpepper
Court House there used to stond ar
old inn, built to initiate the famous
roadhouses Of England, and bearing
the storied sign Of Cock and Bottle"
The former word in the old vernacular,
stood for the tap. The point is that
the man who got the last drink and the
muddy portion of the tap, was said to
have received the cocktail" Col.
Carter was once subjected to this Ia
dignity, and threw the stuff upon the
floor. "Heahaftah," he said, 'I'll drink
cocktails Of ma own concoction, sah."
And, starting to ''clean out the shop"
he dashed together bitters, sugar, bits
Of lemon peel and Holland gin. Great
oaks from little acorns grow, and this
was the genesis of the cocktail.

Without Anything Feminine.

There Is only one territory Of any
size-and never has been but one-oc-
cupied by any considerable population
from which woman is entirely exclud-
ed. Yet such place exists to-day, and
has existed for centuries. AS far back
as history reaches, to all females it has
been forbidden ground. This country
without women is situated on a bold
plateau between the old peninsula OF
Acte, in the Grecian archipelago, and
the mainland. Here, in the midst of
cultivated fields and extensive wood
lands, dwells a monastic federation OF
Greek Christians, with twenty-threel
converts and numbering more thai
1000 souls. Not one Of the monasteries
dates from a later time than the
twelfth century. A few soldiers guard
the borders Of the land, and no woman
is allowed to cross the frontier. Nor IA
this all; the rule Is extended to every
female creature. and from time imme-
mortal no cow, mare, hen, duck or
goose has been permitted to enter this
erritory.-Exchange.

| by the man who has money in his
pocket. Indeed, the receipt of Miss
Hetherington's draft had taken a
weight off his mind. as he had an ap-
pointment that evening with an in
dividual whose tastes were expensive
like his own.
His business during the day does not
concern us. but when it was evening,
and the lights were lit, the cafes
thronged, the footpaths full of people
coming and going, he reappeared in
the center Of the city. Lighting a ci-
gar, he strolled up and down; paused
at kiosk and bought a newspaper;
then. approaching the front of one Of
the great cafes, found vacant seat at
a table. ordered some coffee, and sat
down in the open air watching the
busy throng.
He was sitting thus when his atten-
tention was attracted to figure stand
ing close by him. 1t was that of a
young man dressed carelessly in a
tweed suit and wearing a wideawake
hat. He was standing in the light Of
one OF the windows, talking to an
other man. somewhat his senior, whom
he had just met. Caussidiere caught
a portion Of their conversation.
"And hoo lang hae ye been in Par
is?' asked the elder man.
"All the summer" replied the 9TH
er. Il came here to study and paint.
and have been doing very well. How
are all in Annandale?"
"Brawly, brawly. Where are you
staying?"
Caussidiere did not catch the reply,
and the two men moved away with
the crowd; but he had recognized, at a
glance, in the younger of the inter-
locutors, an old friend-John Suther-
land.
"Diable!" he muttered. What has
brought him to Paris? I must take
care that he and Marjorie do not
meet
He rose, paid for his refreshment,
and walked away. 1t was now 8
o'clock. Hailing fiacre, he jumped
in, and ordered the coachman to
drive to the theater du Chatelet.
Alighting at the door, Caussidiere
strolled into the vestibule, and paid for
seat in one of the balcony boxes. He
found the vast place thronged from
floor to ceiling to witness the per-
formance of fairy spectacle, then in
it's Tooth night, the Sept Files du Di-
able" founded on some fanciful east
ern story. 1t was a tawdry piece with
innumerable ballets, professions, pa
geants, varied with certain scenes OF
horse-play, in which a corpulent low
comedian, great popular favorite, was
conspicuous. Caussidiere was charmed,
concentrating his admiring eyes par
ticularly on one black-eyed, thickly-
painted lady, who personated fairy
prince and sang risky" songs, with
topical illusions and dancing accom-
paniments, in very high shrill voice,
to the great rapture Of the assembled
Parisians. At the end of the third
act Caussidiere left his seat and
atrolled round to the back of the thea
ter.

tes and stage carpenters till he reached
the greenroom.
Here he found many Of the perform
ers lounging about and standing in the
center Of the floor. Dressed in a tur-
ban and sultan's robes, and surround
ed by a group of ladies in all kinds of
scanty costumes, was the obese low
comedian-as loud voiced. low-fore-
headed a satyr of a man as could be
found in the theatrical profession, even
in Paris. -"
AS Caussidiere appeared, the actor
greeted him by name with loud
laugh.
Welcome, mon enfant, welcome" he
cried, shaking hands. "The Germans
are approaching. yet behold-we sur
vive!" ..
The ladies now turned to Caussidiere,
who greeted them by their Christian
names-Blanche, Rose, Ada, Adele.
Sarah, and so on. He seemed to know
them we'll. but. as he talked to them,
looked round impatiently for some per-
son who was not present.
