HAULED
DOWN
FLAG
American Soldiers Would not
Allow British Emblem
Alone

New York, July 13.-Major Murray,
commander at Fort Totten, Willets
Point, it is understood, will make an
investigation Of the charge of the
hauling down of a British flag by a
| sergeant, corporal and three privates,
who are stationed at the Point. It is
claimed that on the Fourth of July the
FIVE men saw the British flag flying
from a pole on the grounds Of John
Armstrong, a British subject, who re-
sides neal the post.
No boisterous language nor any un-
gentlemanly conduct was INDUCED in
by the five soldiers, who had been
granted a days leave, but they delib-
erately hauled down the flag, it is
stated.
Mr.. Armstrong intends to place the
facts before the British Consul in
New York City.
The soldiers requested Mr., Arm
strong t either remove the flag or
place an American flag either at the
top o. alongside of the British en-
blem. This he refused to DO, and he
also refused to remove the flag. The
soldiers then proceeded to take it
down, after which they folded it up
carefully and handed it to its owner,
who refused to take it.
The authorities will, it is said make
a searching investigation and punish
the offenders.

Defends the EIks.

In defense and explanation of the
Order of B. P. o. Fix, Rev. Ray
Palmer of the First Baptist church
of Portland preached a sermon last
Sunday evening in which he endeav-
ored to remove some of the preju-
dice which he said existed against the
order. All of this prejudice is based
on a misunderstanding of the prin-
ciples of the lodge, he said:
But. we VINO know the great and
good principles of that order, for
am a member and, therefore, know,
could surprise the world by their
teachings. They comprise the funda-
mental principles of church, state
and home. The seven-jeweled crown
means a great deal. 1t has a great
significance and each Of the shining
gems is symbolical of good"
From the first shining stone denot-
ing charity, which was taught by
Christ, and is practiced and taught
by the Elks, the speaker took the pre-
cious emblems, N by n and drew
from each a lesson. The amtehysts
of justice, the onyx of brotherly
love, the topaz of fidelity, the ruby
of protection, the sapphire of good
cheer and the emerald of faith, all
served to show the pure teachings
of the order. In regard TO the en-
blem of good cheer, Mr.. Palmer stated
that the idea entertained by many
people that to be an Elk meant to
carouse and drink, was a great mis-
take. They believe in good sheer,
and he thought that the Lord meant
all to be OF good sheer.

The nutmeg is the original musk

To tell whether or not melon is

and If so there will be a dimple In

Must you beat and bruise someone

Meanwhile, who is left to comfort

Every one will wear the colors of
the champion in battle.
Where is the man or woman who
is brave enough to fling to the breeze
the colors of the defeated?
What a difference it would make
in the world if the shouts were to
encourage the one who is down!
What a change there would be in
the world If it were the under dog
that is carried on the shoulders of
the multitude!
But the under dog must pick him
self up and sneak home, scorned,
forgotten. Why? Only because he
is the under dog.
And YOU and / and the rest of the
race of tickle men are not ashamed
of being but the echoes of another's
