Washington and the Flag

So far as known Martha Washington
had nothing to do with designing the
American flag. According to tradition
General Washington and Colonel Ross
were appointed committee by con-
gress to design a flag, and they went
to a Mrs. Ross, who was an upholster-
er in Philadelphia. to have the has
made. Washington drew the design
on the spot, modifying it somewhat at
Mrs. Ross's suggestion. and she made
the first flag. The journals of con-
gress do not bear out the story but II
may be near the truth. The first Am
erican flag had the stripes, as now. but
the Union jack held the present place
of the stars. The flag was hoisted ov-
er washington's camp at Cambridge
on the I'd of January. 177s. The stars
and stripes were officially adopted by
congress, according to the journal, on
June IA, 1777.

Fought the 6-Hour Law

Judge Damon Wednesday sentenced
Peter Kair OF Silver City to pay a fine
Of 500 for having worked ten hours
in the Dazet quartz mill. The judge
stated that he believed the legislature
had exceeded its authority, but the
statutes left him no other resource.
AID he administered the minimum
fine.
Alfred Chartz was attorney for the
defendant, and he set up the PROPOSE
tion that the work upon which Kair
was engaged was in no sense inimical
to life. health or limb. and therefore
was beyond the Jurisdiction Of the leg
islature. so far as hours were con-
cerned.
AS soon as the testimony Is trans
cribed Attorney Chartz will prepare

that the case will 60 to the top for

500, 900 damages, and the case will be
one of particular interest. Electricians
from many states have visited the
scene of the death, and endeavored to
ascertain how 1t were possible for the
current to have accomplished the trag-
edy. But they are still in the dark.
The circuit was supposed to carry
only 110 volts. So far as electricians
know, It could not have carried a
much higher pressure; it was safe
guarded with the usual fuses, which SO
far as the history of electrical me-
chanics goes. never fall And yet,
there were marks upon the body indi-
eating heavy voltage. probably 1000
or more
Those who have investigated are of
the opinion that a new and heretofore
undiscovered principle is involved; but
whether the mystery will ever be sat
isfactorily explained is doubtful.
The whole electrical world is inter-
ested in the outcome, and many rep
resentatives of leading institutions will
be present at the trial.
