Flag Made bx Fair Columbians.

The following article, which ap-
peared in a recent issue of the New
Orleans World, will mutually be read
with a great deal of interest in Col
umbus. as the hands of her fair
daughters fashioned the historic
flag. which is now one of Mississippi's
most highly priced war relics:
The department of archieves and
history of the State of Mississippi has
gotten possession of a magnificent
old Mexican war flag that was car
ried by the First Mississippi regi-
ment under the leadership of Jeffer-
son Davis, at the battle OF Buena Wis
ia. The history of the flag and how
it happens at this late date to find
its way back home are told in a Jack
son special to the Birmingham Age
Herald as follows:
This 1ag was made by the women
of Columbus, Miss, and presented
by Miss Blewitt, the beautiful daugh-
ter of Major Thomas Blewitt, to
Colonel McClung, then captain of the
Tombigbee volunteers, and after the
arrival Of the company at Yicksburg
was made a lieutenant OF the First
Mississippi When the flag was pre-
sented, and after having made a felic-
itous rejoinder, expressing the thanks
OF the company, Captain McCIung
handed it to Color Bearer George w.
Campbell, who carried it all through
the war with Mexico and who was
waving it on the point of his bayonet
the pole having been shot to pieces,
when Colonel Davis in rallying the
Second Indiana cried out: Fall in
behind the First Mississippi
AT the close of hostilities Camp
bell settled at Brennan, Tex, and
there the old flag was found by the
department of history of Mississippi,
the property of Mrs. Sarita Tamplet,
a daughter of Campbell.
1T was Mrs. T. R. Henderson, of
Greenwood, daughter of Senator
George, who was himself a brave
soldier in Jefferson Davis regiment
in the Mexican war, who first sugges-
ted to the Daughters of the Confed-
eracy that the flag be purchased and
preserved by the state of Mississippi.
The owner demanded $500 for the
trophy and in course of time she got
in through the work of the Daughters
of the Confederacy. 1t is still in a
fine state of preservation, but is
pierced with several bullet and bayo-
net holes, evidence of the fact that
the troops who followed it were in
a hot place on some occasion"

QUITE A NEAT EVASION.
Pastor Could Not Be Drawn Into
Giving Direct Testimony.

The wealthy parishioner had with
him his pastor, and miles of road were
thrown into clouds of dust by the
plunging automobile. Halt" COM
manded the officer, but no more at
tention was given to him than to the
fitting telephone poles. Over those
poles, however, sped a message, and
at the next crossroads barrier was
encountered and also another repre-
sentative of the law. Not only did
he break the speed law" complained
the constable, when the party had as
sembled in court, but he also told me
to go to the devil "You lie" thun-
dered the wealthy parishioner, Il never
used such language" 1--WE must pro-
tect our officers from profanity" in

statement, will tell us whether or not
the devil was mentioned in this con-

that any additional allusion to him
would not impress itself upon me suf-
ficiently to remember the incident"

Beware of Frequent Colds.

A succession of colds or a pro-

end in chronic catarrh, fro m which
few persons ever wholly recover.
Give every cold the atte ntion it
deserves and you may avoid the
disagreeable disease. How can
you cure a cold? Why not try
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy?
1t is highly recommended. Mrs.
M. White, of Butler, Tenn, says,
"Several years ago was bother

The Country's Laws.


The country has too many laws
now, yet at Washington and every
state capital, where Legislature
is in session, and at the city halls
of every municipality the air is
heavy with appeals and proposals
for new laws. And no doubt
some of these appeals and pro-
posals should be listened to. Fur
ther, very few of them are wholly
without merit. Especially is this
true of the unwise and the bad
ones. A bad bill is always like a
measure of forced season straw
berries-it has its surface sprinkled
with attractiveness.
The main point, however, is
that every where we do not need
new laws; we have too many al
ready: what we need is the sens
ible and honest enforcement OF
existing laws. And we shall never
be greatly better off until we shut
our ears against reformers shout
ing for new legislation, and tricky
politicians calling for new grants
of power, when their only purpose
is to distract public attention from
the fact that they already have,
under the existing law, all the
power they need, if they would
but use it. Sensible Judges with
fogless minds, sensible executives
with courage and honesty-that is
our need. And swelling the stat
ute books only postpones the fill
ing OF that need.-,St. Joseph Oh
server.

EASY TO OVERCOME WORRY.
Simple Mental Treatment to Do Away
With Evil Habit.

Being human, happily or unhappily,
we cannot deny the comfort to be
found in the reflection that misery
never lacks the company it loves. We
all have our troubles, and some of us
derive much satisfaction from the con-
temptation of them. Indeed, there are
those who are happy only when
wretched; but these we believe to be
as few in number as they are disa-
greeable in association; the vast ma
jority of humans are normal, and dis
posed, therefore, in conformity with
natural law, to smile when the skies
are clear and to grieve under the por-
tent of clouds. Hence the ease with
which worry takes possession OF the
mind, colors the disposition and makes
cripple of effort. That causes abound
we know and must admit, as we do
almost unconsciously the certainty
Of death; but too little cognizance Is
taken of the fact that the effect OF
mere apprehension, which is all that
worry really is, may be subjected to
Simple mental treatment and be over

American Review.

EFFECTS OF THE FOG.
Even Blind Men Lose Their Way
The Ground "Sounds Different"

Nothing has such a bewildering ef-
feet as fog. Only animals which fin
their way by scent can get about in
1t with any certainty, says Chums.
Birds are entirely confused by it.
Iame pigeons remain all day motion
loss and half-asleep, huddled up, eth
er in or just outside their houses.
Chickens remain motionless for hours
during heavy fogs. No bird sings or
utteTs call, perhaps because it fears
TO oetray its whereabouts to an un-
seen foe. During one very thick fog
a hllnd man was found wandering
ABOUT a certain district of London.
Ihls man was in the habit of carrying
Rotes and parcels, and had scarcely
ever lost his way before. Asked why
he had gone astray, for he was quite
blind, and it was supposed that wealth.
er would have made no difference, he
said that in a fog the ground sounded
quite differently"

A Celebrated Celibate.

A young and handsome rector was
recently engaged for fashionable
church. One of the vestrymen with
a keen relish for joke circulated the
rumor that the new parson belonged
to the order of celibates, thinking
thereby to battle the spinsters and
widows Of the congregation who were
many. One matron, with several mar
riagable daughters, assembled these
and few young friends about her,
and gave the group solemn warning.
Now, girls she said, you must not
fall in love with the rector. You know
he is celebrity" And celebrity
the poor man remained so long as
he was rector of that church.
