their liberal incorporation laws passed
by the last general assembly.
The receipts of $1,000 one

prosperity is bringing into existence
have swslled the net revenue from cor

to pay the salaries of Governor, Sec

LARGEST FLAG IN THE WORLD,
MADE BY MISS MULFORD, OF MADISON,
N. j.. AND HAS 325,OOO STITCHES.
Exhibited for Patriotic Purposes, Then
Given to the COuntry.-A Very Inter-
esting Feature of Its Construction.

"A
esting Feature of Its Construction.
The largest flag in the world is to be
exhibited next fall under the auspices
of the Daughters of the American Rev
Olution, says the New York Times.
This is the flag made during the late
war with Spain by Miss Josephine
Mulford, of Madison, n. j. There are
1885, 900 stitches in this fiag-Miss Null
ford counted them as they were placed
--one for each soldier and sailor of the
army and navy engaged in the war.
The flag measured 100 by So feet, and
the blue field is 40 by 35 feet. The
stripes are feet wide and each star is
two feet inches across. The bunting
was manufactured especially for il, land
it is sewed with the BEST of silk.
ga feature of the making of the
flag, said Misss Mulford, ''is that five
of the stars, representing as many
States, were made in places in the
states associated with great historic
events. The Pennsylvania star, made
in Philadelphia, was partly in the
house of Betsy Ross, in the very room
in which she made the first American
flag, in 1776; partly at Carpenters
Hall, in the room where the first Con-
tinental Congress met; and partly
while sitting at Hancock's chair at
Independence Hall, the chair he sat in
when he signed the Declaration of In
dependence. The star New Jersey was
made in Washington's headquar-
ters at Morristown. The Maryland
star was made at Fort McHenrv. in
honor of Francis Scott Keys fag-our
everlasting tar-Spangled Banner.
The star Virginia was made in the
Lafayette room at Washingtons home,
Mount Vernon. The New York star
represents two of our victors. 1t was
made partly in the. Long Room at
Fraunces's tavern, where Washington
bade farewell to his officers after the
revolution, and partly on board the
flagship New York of our victorious
squadron of the late war.
Each of the forty-five stars is en-
broidered with the name of the State it
represents and the date of its admission
into the Union, and all are arranged
in the field in chronological order. On
the halyard canvass is embroidered a
letter to the victorious army and
navy.
The flag is to be presented by the ma
ton, it is hoped, on the first anniver-
sary of the signing of the treaty of
peace by the peace commissioners in
Paris. But it is to be a national offer
ing to the country, and subscriptions
may be sent to Miss Josephine Null
ford, care First National Bank, Madi-
son, n. J. Each subscriber will re-
ceive an engraved receipt of original
design. Miss MulfOrd has received a
letter of appreciation from President
Mckinley for her work. In the inter
val before the presentation, the flag
will be exhibited for the benefit of
worthy patriotic objects.
