Poetry With a Sting In 1t.


 On one occasion when William Ham. ilton Hayne was visiting Samuel Min turn Peck at the latter's home in Tus- kaloosa the two poets strolled into the woods and paused to rest beneath the shadows of the pines.
 "Here are your favorite pines. Hayne,' said Peck. Lets dream q few poems beneath them."
 The languid summer day had its ef, feet on them, and they were soon snor- ing and dreaming away.
 But suddenly both awole and both started down the home road at top speed, shouting as they ran.
 An army of yellow jackets had dis covered them, and, not being partial to poetry, had forcibly and feelingly resented its intrusion on their domain Later, at supper, Peck asked:
 "Did you make poem, Hayne?" "No." was the meek reply. "I made poultice!'
 "So did l." said Peck.

new flag equipment every three
years, though a flagship will often re-
quire a new set of signals, owing to
their constant use and handling, in
about a year.
A striking idea of the number of
flags carried by a single ship may be
CLEANED from one Of the accompany
ing illustrations, showing a pile fif-
teen feet long and nearly waist high
just finished for the new battleship
Connecticut. About one-half. OF
the lot is composed Of foreign flags,
incased in thick paper bags, with the
name of the country stenciled on the
bottom. The remainder, including
those for ordinary use, signal sets,
and the International code, etc., are
not wrapped, but merely tied in
round bundles. To cut out the varied
patterns and complete all these mis-
cellaneous flags, some thirty-fve
skilled machine sewers and needle
women and three men are employed.
With the bright-colored, fantastic
flags of all nations dangling from
their machines, the long row of flag
makers present a picturesque scene
The long spacious room is literally
a blaze of color. Owing to long SER
vice, the labor has become highly
specialized, and the women are kept
at work on the particular flags which
they can make the best. Some excel
in sewing in the stars, others in fin
tshihg certain others parts of the flag.
Nearly all have been in the establish
ment for years. Their pay averages
from $3.50 to 50 per day.
A great deal more time and labor
is required to finish certain Of these
flags than is generally supposed.
For instance, the Presidents flag re-
quires the longest time of any to
make, as it takes one woman a whole
month to complete it. The flag con-
sists of a blue ground with the coat
of arms of the United States in the

TOWN BUYS WOMAN A HAT.
How City Attorney of indianapolis
Forestalled q Suit For Damages.

ForeStal1ed q Suit For Damages.
The city of Indianapolis, as a mu-
nicipal corporation, bought a woman
a hat the other day.
Merely for convenience she may
be called Mrs. Smith, because for the
sake of her feelings James D. Pierce,
the Assistant City Attorney, who
made the deal. would not divulge
her name.
A contractor who was at work on
a street improvement left some bricks
in the street. Mrs. Smith, with her
husband, was on her way to the
theatre and as luck would have it
she stumbled over those bricks and
fell quite heavily.
Her husband helped her to her
feet and half carried her back home.
The next day a report of the accident
reached the Office of the City Attor.
ney. No claim had been filed for
damages, but the lawyers who look
after the city's legal business be-
lieved that there would be one. so
Pierce decided to e Mrs. Smith.
That noon, which was the first OF
last week, Pierce hurried out to the
North Side fiat where the woman
and her husband and her mother
live. The young woman came to the
door. He was ushered in and after
being informed that the woman be-
fore him was Mrs. Smith he began
to talk.
Mrs. Smith did not want to go to
court. She did not want to sue the
city and have all the papers say that
she stumbled and rolled over and
over in the street. She did not want
to face a jury and have a. dozen law
yers firing questions at her.
"The city will buy you a nice new
hat of your own selection and we
will call the thing square," said
Pierce.
But I had better see my hus-
band" said the young woman.
He would not wear the hat"
said Peirce.
mo, that's So" size said and
she smiled.
Well, we'll do that" she said.
She signed a release. Her hus-
band came a moment later. He
signed, too.
That afternoon the young woman
bought her hat and paid for it with
a ten dollar bill Pierce had given her.

What "ILaughter1" Means,

Is Irish wit completely dying out?
We ask because of the extraordinary
banalities which seem to be regarded
as gems of humor on the Nationalist
benches. Yesterday, for instance, Mr..
Flavin, desiring to retort upon an OPP
ponent who had raised his ire, shout
ed out, go and get your hair cut"
That Mr.. Flavin should scintillate
after this fashion will be no surprise
to his acquaintance. What is aston
ishing, and, in a sense, really melan-
choly, is that the remark, which even
a genuine guttersnipe would regard
as too devoid of originality and point
for use in a street brawl, should have
been received with shouts Of laughter
from the Nationalists. Do they really.

sired to address the Chair, as a di-

feet with bare head. HAT! HAITI.

gladly borrowed a neighbor's. Now.

British Patriotism VS.. Trade.

Until much less than a century ago
there we're no potteries Of any con-
sequence in this country, and our
srandmothers and great-grandmoth-
ers used tableware made in England.
With an eye on this growing trade
with the young States, certain pot
tiers Of Staffordshire began decorat-
ing dishes with American scenes
The idea took" and historical and
political subjects followed. 1t is
amusing to note to what extent the
lust for trade swallowed up the poll
teal animosities of those British pot
tiers. I have seen a pitcher bearing
a print of the surrender OF Cornwall

ed by some British historians as a
mere incident of a somewhat unfor-
tunate period. - Country Life in
