THE NEWEST FLAG.
Oklahoma Member Had It Floated
 To The Breeze.

To The Breeze.
 Washington, March 19.--Floating over the capital few days ago, was an American flag bearing forty-six stars in its union. It was the first flag ever made indicating that there were forty-six states representing in dividual sovereignties in the United States. It was furnished by Repre- sentative Mcclure, of Oklahoma, on whose request it was raised over the house end of the Capitol.
 That forty-six starred flag remain ed over the Capitol only one day. It was lowered and returned to Mir Me- Guire, who sent it immediately to Oklahoma, where it will float over the state capitol. The arrangement of the stars in the union was purely mathematical, no attempt being made to incorporate them into a pie turesque design.
 Ever since the admission of Okla homa into the union of states, patri- otically inclined persons throughout the country have been offering sug- gestions about the arrangement of the stars in the union. Some of the suggestions have been regarded as impossible, while others have appeal ed strongly to congress and to the officials of the government One of the best suggestions that has been made came from George W. Wilson, of Lafayette, Indiana, who sent his proposition to Senator Hemenway, of Indiana, with the idea of having it adopted by the government author- ties. Senator Hemenway was inn pressed with MT Wilson's idea and immediately brought it to the atten- tion of the state department. He presented photograph of the pro- posed design of the union and Mr Wilson's description of it, which fol lows:
 .'The proposition is to group each of the stars signifying a state, forty six in number. into one great star, representing the national union. The star in the center of the great star represents Massachusetts. the mother state for the reason that in this. state the first and last battle for independence was fought, hence as a natural consequence Massachu- sets should by right occupy such a position on the flag. Around the single star is circle of twelve stars, together representing the thirteen states, and are made the foundation of the great star New stars may be added without in any way disarrang- ing the grouping as indicated on the photograph by the dark stars. Pro- visions are made in the arrangement for our incoming territories and CO., lonial possessions, not being part of the star. They can be placed in the shadow of it, denoting our na- tional protection over them; and as they are admitted as states, they can be merged into the great star. The new grouping of the stars indicates the history of the American flag: it symbolizes the motto "E Pluribus Unum" (many in one) or one star composed of many stars, and repre- sents union of states, with the thir- teen original states as the founda-

 He went to the cabin. They heard him unlock the door and enter. At that instant a startling hail came from two sailors stationed on the poop.
 '1ndianos!' they yelled.
 The three men were on the spar deck a second later. straining their eyes into the black vagueness of the water.
 "Indianos.' shouted two other sail ors on the forecsstle. and from the spar deck 1t seemed to be possible to distinguish several black objects nov ing toward the shin.
 ''The siren. Boyle" cried Courtensy, striking match. At once the swelling note of the fog horn smote the air and thundered away in tremendous sound waves. Soon a hissing. fiery serpent ran up the port wall of the chart house. and a fine star rocket scared into the sky. 1t illuminated a wide area of the tay and revealed a number of crowded csnoes dsrtinE in on the ship from all sides Courtenay Erssped the line con- nected with the remaining mines and haHlei for dear life.

 A death chill gripped her heart at Frascuelo's words.
