As to Flags.

Each company reached Barancas with its own company flag. and these were as unlike as the uniforms, and bearing a striking resemblance to the Stars and Stripes of the Union. They generally agreed in one point only. that of having a single star. Some had been inscribed with mettoes and curious devices, such,

for instance as a rattlesnake in coil ready to strike his victim, with the motto. Don't tread on me-" This great diver sity of company flags was especially con- spicuous on regimental drill and dress pa- rade. On the adoption of a national flag during summer the ladies of Montgomery sent the Regiment a Confederate flag made of bunting, after which the com pany flags were seldom used.
 These flags were captured at Island No. 10, April, 1862, and are presumably in the archives of Northern States.

The Sweet Corn Crop.

The cry of a shortage in the sweet
often the case, by the corn packers to
influence the price of their products.
From all over Maine, where the best
sweet corn in the world is raised and
canned, and from other sections as
we'll, comes the report that the crop is
very backward, and that nothing but
an exceptionally late fall will save any
anout of it for the factories. AS there
has been a frost every month, thus far,
this year, We can hardly expect that
September will prove an exception to
1903's rule.
A good sweet corn crop means much
to the farmers of Maine, and its failure,
complete or partial, is something to be
deplored Some of the factories, we
understand, are making no prepara-
lions to open for business, and at most
Of the others there is little expectation
of putting up anything like the usual
amount Some of the largest corn can
ming factories in the world are in
southern Vermont, along the banks of
the Connecticut river, and on these
rich intervales, where the crops are
'. protected against frost by the thick
morning fog which never fails, there
will probably be a good crop of sweet
corn. Some Maine packers are inter
ested in these Vermont factories, but
! the prospect of I good crop there is lit
tie consolation to our Maine farmers.

For the first time in % years of inter-
national tennis contests, the champion
ship trophy goes to England. Three
times, in 1894, 1897 and 1902, the English
players got into the final round of the
tournament, and only single Ameri-
can stood between them and the cham
pionship. But in each instance, the
American was equal to the task before
him and kept the cup on this side. This
year, the great Doherty has shown him
self the best tennis player living, as far
as steadiness of playing goes, though
several Americans excel him in bril-
liancy of work But it is steadiness
which counts in the long run, and so
the most important American tennis
trophy now takes trip abroad. 1t is
certain that our players will not rest
content until it is brought back here.

The Boston Herald points out that
"Volapuk," the fantastic creation of
faddists who fancied they had invented
the universal language, seems likely to
have no good excuse for existing by
and by, since English is moving in the
direction of the fulflment of the
prophecy that our mother tongue will
some time be spoken the world over. 1t
shows that within 100 years French has
declined from the first to the fourth
place among influential languages, al
though the use of it has increased 64.5
per cent. Spanish has increased els;
German and Russian have advanced by
$50 per cent, while English, which now
stands at the head, has increased by
$50 per cent. English is taught in all
German schools and the Japanese
make it a part of their regula:
curriculum. English is destined to be
as near a universal language as this
world will ever see until the millennium
comes and the curse of Babel is re-
moved.

Waterville Mail: The Auburn man
who has sued his neighbor for damages
on account of his being deprived of
sleep through the growing of the neigh
boring roosters, deserves to win his
suit, whatever the courts opinion in
the case may be. On a farm where
bedtime often follows closely after
darkness. it is well enough for one to
be awakened early in the morning, and
whether the summons to arise, consists
of the growing of the cock or some
other alarm, matters little. But in
town, where people are fortunate to get
to BED before midnight, it means some
thing to be aroused at four or five in
the morning by the clamorous outcry
from a nearby poultry yard. A man
who would possess his soul in peace in
such circumstances, and not have re-
course to the courts for redress OF
grievances, is meeker than Moses ever
thought of being.
