A Famous Flag.

The war department has received
from William Clausen, of New York
city, the old flag of the First New York
fire Zouaves. This was the flag carried
by the command in the civil war. and is
the emblem which the gallant Col. Ellis
worth replaced on the staff of the m an
sion house at Alexandria, Va, when he
removed the confederate flag, for which
act he sacrificed his life. Mr.. Clausen
says he came into possession of the flag
as a gift from Andrew Goven, who was
treasurer of Ellsworth post, G.. A. R.. and
the custodian of the flag. Mr.. Clausen

The Earth.

The Santa Fe passenger department in Chicago commenced the publica- tion of monthly journal entitled ''The Earth" with a subtitle, ''es- pecially the best part of it, the Great Southwest.
 It will be devoted to exploiting the resources and business conditions gen. erally of the Pacific coast and other southwest territory reached by the Santa Fe system. Especial attention will be given to the farming and fruit raising industries, and correspond ence is invited from persons inter- ested in such matters. The editor is Capt. James W. Steele, former editor of the Corn Belt, and of wide exper- fence. His address is, care A. T. & s. F. Ry., Railway Exchange Build ing, Chicago, Ill.
 The journal will have a guaranteed circulation of 25,OOO monthly, prin- cipally among farmers and others in the Middle West
 The subscription price is 9 cents per year, but special offer is made to send to six addresses for six months for 50 cents. This is a good oppor- tunity for people hereabouts to secure copy for themselves and each of five eastern friends at very nominal rate. Copies of ''The Earth" may be seen at Santa Fe ticket offices.

It has been remarked that the Ellery band carries no vocal soloist. The reason for this is that after trying the experiment several times Mir. Ellery has discovered that no vocalist, un- less it should be a Melba, Sembrich or NOrdica, is sufficiently great to make an impression when placed in contrast with the grand climaxes of the band, and the artistic and thrill ing work of the instrumental soloists who form part of it. No average singer, however excellent her line, creates half the sensation that a De. elmo, Ferullo, Palma, Demitris or Curti creates. Opera house Tuesday, May 24.
