WHERE IS THE AMERICAN FLAG :?

Ask, and the worldwide winds will answer
AS they blow from the land and the sea
The flag of America is waving
In the highlands Of Liberty.
Wherever nation OF people
Is cozened, cOerced and oppressed
You'll find the American ensign
Beloved and honored and blest,
Where the hosts of the nation are fighting,
And the Russian bullets speed by,
The conquering Jap points proudly.
To the flag that floats near by;
And there they greet with welcome
The flag they know to be true
To them tits the voice of Freedom
That bids them struggle through
1t has never been waved for conquest,
70, Nor Haunted DER deeds of shame,
Nor waved DER the fell marauder
AS he ravlShed with sword and flame.
1t has opened the gates of commerce
To the HindOO's fertile shore;
1t has carried it's blessing to China
And opened her fast-clOsed door.
The Armenian looks to it in trouble
And again with his dying breath,
The Cuban with it's folds around him
Has hallOwed it's memory in death.
Loved as the emblem of freedom,
When Spain's starving subjects were slain
1t encouraged the dauntless Cuban
To struggle for freedom again.
Where is the American Ensign?
Seek where the oppressed are found
Struggling to gain their freedom
From burdens that weigh to the ground
Go, search where the homes are happy,
And the lands are free from strife
Where the birds sing ever OF freedom
And the cities are teeming with life. ~
Where is the American Ensign?
1t is waving on every sea;
Its message is peace, to the struggling:
And its motto is liberty.
Go search where the Christian religion
Has entered the savage'S lair;
Where prosperity blesses the people
The flag of America is there

Overcome by Coal Gas.

During the present winter there have
been several cases of partial asphyxi-
alton in New Ulm. One occurred last
Tuesday night when Ernst Eyrich. the
popular clerk at Crone Bros, was
overcome by coal gas. That night
a stovepipe slipped from its position
and allowed coal gas to escape into
Mr.. Eyrich's bed-chamber. When he
was aroused by his wife Wednesday
morning he started to cross the room
but in doing SO fell to the floor un-

the question is hard to determine, but
as far as the actual necessity of having

does not need it any more than a dog

President Roosevelt has decided not
to make a campaign tour of speeches.
He will content himself with receiving
at the White House. He may not be
doing this on the precedent established
by other presidents, but it is true
nevertheless that no candidate for
president has been elected who has
made an extensive campaign tour.

themselves busiest about their own
affairs. 1t is reasonably safe to as
sumo that such men, once they are in

true in every case, that if yon have
work to do get the busiest man to do
it. A man who has his own business
to attend to has no time to go on use
less junketing trips at the expense of
the city.

by Conditions During
Past Week,

Washington, Sept 2S.-The weather
bureaus weekly summary of crop con-
ditions is as follows:
Unusually low temperature for the
season was the marked feature of the
week in the northern section of the
country east of the Rocky mountains,
heavy and killing frosts occurring on the
21st to 23d in New England, portions Of
the middle Atlantic states and lake re-
gion, Minnesota and the Dakotas. In
the central valleys and southern dis
tricts more favorable temperature pre-
vailed. The rainfall was unequally dis
tributed, being excessive in portions of
the gulf states and Oklahoma, and alb
normally heavy on the southern Pacific
coast, where much damage resulted.
Beneficial rains fell in Illinois. In
diana, lower Michigan and portions of
Iowa and Missouri, and showers delayed
work in Minnesota and North Dakota,
but elsewhere only light showers or no
rain fell, the conditions being favorable
for gathering late crops,
Good Weather for Corn.
In the principal corn-producing states
west of the Mississippi river late corn
has experienced favorable weather con-
ditions; the crop is generally maturing
rapidly, except in northern Missouri,
with no material damage from frost. In
Iowa a week of warm and dry weather is
required to mature the greater part of
the late planted.
The harvest of spring wheat is COM
pleted; threshing is well advanced in
the northern portion of the spring wheat
region, although delayed by rains in
Minnesota and North Dakota, and the
crop is nearly all stored in Washing
ton. z4r
The harvest of tobacco is practically
completed in the more .northerly sec
tions, the crop being generally housed,

Good Crop of Apples.
Although damaged by high winds in
New York, a goodcrop of apples is prom
ised in that state; little injury was
caused to apples by the recent freeze in
New England, and a large crop of good
quality is being picked in Michigan.
Fall seeding is advancing under gen.
orally favorable conditions in northern
districts, being practically completed
in some sections, with early-sown wheat
up to good stands in Oklahoma, and
showing green in Missouri and Illinois.
Very little plowing was done in the
southern states, on account of baked soil,
and rain is needed in Minnesota, Ne

RUSSIANS FIGHTING WITH DlMIN-

FORTRESS REPORTED FALLEN
Rumor Causes Alarm at ST. Peters
burg, But is Not verified--Gen.
Stoessel Says He is Good
For Six Months.

London, Sept28.--A dispatch to the
Standard from Lao Yang, dated Sept.
26, via Tientsin, states that the crisis
at Port Arthur is rapidly approaching.
The speedy capture of the last line of
defense is anticipated. The recent
successful assault by the Japanese
sealed the fate of the fortress, enab-
ling the besiegers to mount heavy
guns on the hills to the eastward,
which command section of the town
and the harbor.
The Russian fire for many days has
not been as vigorous as usual. 1t is
believed their ammunition is scarce.
The correspondent confirms the re-
ports of severe bombardments, severe
losses by the garrison, and the cut
ting off of the main aqueduct supply
ing the fortress with water.
5attering the Last Line.
London, Sept 2S--A dispatch to the
Chronicle, vaguely dated "Liaotung
peninsula, Sept. 26," reports that the
bombardment of Port Arthur goes on
increasingly. The fortress is sur
rounded by ring of fire from Japan
ese shells. The last line of the de-
fenses is being battered to pieces pre-
paratory to the final assault.
At one point the Japanese have
sapped to within few hundred yards
of the Russians, but it will be difficult
to cross the intervening Space owing
tothe intensity of the Russian rife
fire.
The correspondent mentions that
the Russians made sortie, but were
driven back into the fortress. They
lost some howitzers. Both sides are
displaying unparalleled fortitude and
determination. The bands Of Port
Arthur play anthems nightly, while
the defenders in the advanced works
sing. The Japanese respond with
cries ofEye 4 4 zai' and by singing patri,
