ElKS' MARCHING CLUB
 HAS BEEN ABANDONED
SMALL NUMBER CAN GO TO DEN- YER, AND PROMOTERS DE-
 cipE TO DROP MATTER.

At a meeting of the members of the Arizona Marching Club, which was or ganized among the local members of the B. F. O. E. several weeks ago, held at the office of Jack McGregor, in the Bank of Bisbee building on Monday evening, 1t was decided by a vote of those present to abandon the idea of a marching club.
 The officers of the club who have labored assiduously for the success of the undertaking are very much dis appointed over the turn affairs have taken of late. A number who signed the original membership list at the last minute were compelled to cancel their membership in the organization for business and other reasons. The disturbed conditions recently at Cana nea prevented number of Elks resId- ing there from going with the march ing club, and Douglas and Fl Paso did not respond to the invitation of the Bisbee Elks to join the club in as large numbers as had been expected.
 number of suits had already been ordered. but owing to the small num- Der who were positive that they would go, not more than twenty-five alto gether, 1t was. thought best to aban- don the marching club idea, and it was done. ".-. q. -.
 A number of Elks will go to Denver, however, from Bisbee, but will not be seen in the parade. s

Great National Event Was But Little Observed in
 BiSbee,
FIRST FLAG WAS BORN
 MID STIRRING EVENTS.
History of Its Making Closely Woven With Founding Of Great Republic, Which Is To- day Biggest of Nations.

Il Though yesterday was flag day. Bis
 bee tokk but little cognizance of ons l of the greatest events in the history of the nation. With few exceptions he many fiagpOles in this city were 1 unadorned with the Stars and stripes.
 Birth of the Flag.
 Saturday, the 14th of June. HIT, the 1 American Congress passed a resolu- 1 tion declaring that the flag of the | thirteen United States be thirteen striper, alternate read and wbite; that the Union be thirteen stars, white in blue field, representing a new con | stellation.'
 | Thus the flag was born This was 1 the first and the only legislation, so | far as records show, on the subject of national standard for the United States of America at that time. The first flag to represent the Un- ited States upon the high seas was a field striped in red and blue. with a rattlesnake crawling across it. It was this flag which Paul Jones flung to the breeze upon the Alfred in TITS. The Alfred was the flagship of the new born navy, which consisted of five ships The fiaship mounted twenty nine pounders. The weight of shot thrown from her entire battery, or both broad sides, was not equal to the weight O.. single shot thrown by one of our own monitors.
 On the day of the passage of the flag act by Congress it also resolved that Paul Jones be appointed to the command of the Ranger, a new war ship. This naval commander, who hnUn in e, with the government at that time, and with women as well, was a Scotchman. He was born on the 9th day of July. 1747, at Abingland, in the parish of Kirkbean and stewartry of Kirksud- bright He was christened John, but his fathers name was Paul. so that his name was John Paul, which ne saw fit to change to Paul Jones when he came to this country. None of his biographers, and they are numerous, can give valid reason for the change, as his own was an honorable and an honest family.
 A penciled note on the margin of one biography says:
 "The reason is simple He took the name of Jones in gratitude to Gen. Jones, of North Carolina, who procur- ed him an appointement as first lieu tenant in the navy, December P, in the year 1775."
 Known as Paul Jones Before.
 He had. however, been Paul Jones" long before that time. British writ CTS stigmatize him as pirate, rebel, robber," etc, and suggested that the change of name had a sinister pur- pose, when he was forced" to leave Great Britain. To this he replies in his memoirs:
 I was born in Great Britain, but do not inherit the degenerate spirit of the fallen nation. which I at once la ment and despise. America has been the home of my fond election from the age of thirteen, when I first saw it. I had the honor to hoist with my own

MiJ5KteMsUOaaId,

More than likely you speak the same words yourself, and no doubt yoiI feel far fromwen. The cause may be easily traced to some derangement of the fe- male organs which manifests itself in depression of spirits. reluctance to DO anywhere or do anything. backacbe bearing-down pains. fatulencv, nery- ousnesS. sleeplessness, or other fe- male weakness.
 These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless needed a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitabl result. The never failing remedy for all these symptoms is Lydia E. ,Pinkham's Veg etable Compound.
 Miss Kate Mcdonald of woodbriape N. J., writes:
 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
 Restored health has meant SO r1lcb to m, that cannot help from telling about it for the sake of other suffering women

Pink hams Vegetable Compound has entirely cured me. and made me well and strcpg. and feel 1t my duty to tell other suffering women what splendid medicine it is"

b0STW|CK WINS
 SUIT AGAINST BISbEE
Jury Awards Him Damages to Amount of S1,500, and
 Taxes Costs on City,

After deliberation for two hours the jury in the case of
 C. R. Bostwick versus the City } of Bisbee brought in a verdict } at Tombstone yesterday even ing at o'clock in favor of Bost- wick, awarding him $500 and { taxing the costs of the suit to ( Bisbee. Involved in this suit is much . of the early history of Bis { bees townsite patent. Bost- ( wick, while probate judge, made { the first survey for the patent, { which was never accepted by { } tae city. ' f Bostwick first made an ef- { } fort to force the city to accept , his survey and proceed with { the perfecting of it's patent, , which would have meant his { collecting all the fees incident , to the granting of deeds and { , titles to property within the { city limits. Though .Bostwick's survey {
 was never accepted by the city {
 it was used in the efforts maue {
 first by ex5Mavor Muirhead .
 and later ex-Mayor Taylor in (
 arranging for the city's patent {
 and the. giving out of rIrIes {
 and deeds.
 The decision rendered yes '
 terday by the jury in Tomb (
 stone means that unless the {
 city takes an appeal and wins {
 iS a higher court it must pay {
 Bostwick $500 and the costs (
 of the suit. Whether or not (
 the city will do this will prob .
 ably be decided within the next (
 few days.

South and Western Will be Built.

1t is said that the cost of the South
and Western road, through the noun
tains of North Carolina, will be at least
one hundred thousand dollars per mile.
A Spartanburg, s. c., correspondent
of the New York Comm ercisl claims
that the Seaboard Air Line, which con-
trolls the South and Eastern, is owned
by Thos. T. Ryan and the Pennsylyan-
ia. The following is told OF the work
of construction Of the South and West
ern. road in North Carolina:
"The road promises to be the best
and most costly ever built in this coun-
try. 1t is estim ted that the average
cost per mile, with II tunnels in 10
miles over the Blue Ridge mountains,
will far exceed 100000 a mile. The
excavations and embankments are be-
ing made from 20 to % feet deep, large
enough for a double. track railroad,
while the grade, one-half of per cent. i,
is an ideal one for heavy coal trains
carrying go to So cars. There are five
tunnels through solid rock on the top
of the Blue Ridge. These tunnels are
2,265, 1 900, 900, $50 and $50 feet long.

full by the New York Life Insurance
Company Of two policies held by my
son.
Icertainly appreciate the very prompt
manner in which this payment was
made when / take into consideration
the peculiar circumstances surrounding
this case, since, as everyone knows, my
son was accidentally drowned more
than two months ago; yet this claim
was paid before the body was recovered,
and the company even waived the exc
cution of bond, which / understand
is usually required in case OF this
kind. / appreciate that, had the com
pany been disposed to be technical in
this matter. we would have been put to
very considerable trouble in furnishing
proofs, and you may be sure | heartily
commend the New York Life.
In this connection may say that
this insurance comes as great blessing
to the family of my son, for without it
they would be left absolutely depend
emit on the charity of Others,
