COMMERCIAL CLUB
A BUSY LOCATION
With Settlement of Strike Of IRON
workers. Things Arc Moving
With u Hum.

{ The passerby at the new Commercial
club building on Cactus street did not
need to be told this morning that the
labor trouble there had been settled
the whole air of the place, With the re-
cent indifference OF uncertainty was re-
placed with the hustle of activity that
means that work is now on In earnest.
When the S4o'cloak whistle blew this
morning there was 81 crew of men
that jumped actively into the work, and
in less than ID minutes the success Of
the settlement OF the trouble by giving
the contract to the local firm of T.. II .
fDundas was manifest. Under the quick,
sharp orders of a foreman, whose rov-
ing eye seemed to take III the entire
work at the one glance, and only rest
ed long enough tc point out to$this man
or the other Just what to do, the struc-
itural men began work with a VIM, the
carpenters and bricklayers were no. less
behind, and the animated scene WAS
best expressed in the remark of the
superintendent of the general contrac-
tors when. with chucklc, he said:
Nov. watch the building go up"
Today's work has been "prelimin-
aryy,' and a. full crew Is not vet en-
| ployed. About eight men on the
morning. but their work today has
consisted Of the placing of equipment,
such as &derricis. etc. getting every
thing in readiness for actual con-
structiye work. Within a day or two
| IS or 20 men will be added to the
working force.
Another noticeable feature OF the
settlement of the trouble was the
tearing down offthe high board fence

LOG BOOK OF PAUL
JONES' RANG GER FOUND.

~ 8. "
a Boston, Mass, June 14.-"Flag day"
will become rnelnora bic in the historical
annals Of the national emblem through
the discovery of the log of Paul Jones
ship Of war, Ranger, the first vessel
TO fly the American flag in the eyes of
the Britons.
This log was found among relics left
by the late Erastus Perry Jewell. Of
f4aconia, N. FL. who died q few days
ago. 1t may become the property OF
the national government within short
time.
The beginning OF the8lo appears to
he in Handwriting OF Capt. Jones him-
self, as it bears resemblance to n
fac-simile OF letter to Gen. WASH
Sington found in the Boston public lib
rarya and taken from the original in the
archives at the national capitol. y
perusal OF the log tends to prove two
important! facts: =
First. that Capt. Jones was part au-,
thor of the resolution in Congress-,
passed June Ia, 1T77, for the design Of
the flag, and, second. that before le
went to France; he made several trips
to clear the northern Atlantic of British
priyateers and to prey on British COM
Einerce. It. was worded so modestly,
that it does not give details, but enough,
is shownSto warrant such a conclusion.
The log proves concluslvely that Capt.
Jones chased every ship in sight with
the new Ranger which was among the
3swiftest of vessels. His prizes We're
