f'hs National FIaa.

The first display of the national flag
at military post was at Fort Schuy-
Ter, on the site of the present city Of
Rome, N. Y. The fort was besieged
early in August. 1777. The garrison
was without flag. so one was made
according to the prescription of con-
gress by cutting up sheets to form the
white stripes, bits of scarlet cloth for
the red stripes. and the blue ground
for the stars was made from a piece of
the blue cloak belonging to Captain
Abraham Swartwout of Duchess
county. N. Y. This flag was unfurled
over the fort on Aug. 3, 1777.
The national flag was first unfurled
In battle on the banks of the Brandy

June %. 1878, when Captain Rathbone
of the American sloop of war Provi-
dence captured Fort Nassau, on the
Bahama islands. Captain Paul Jones
was the first man to display the Amer
lean flag on an American vessel. This
flag was made by the women of Ports
mouth. n. H.. for the Ranger. which
was fitted out at that port for Captain
Jones. The Ranger sailed from Ports

Whistler as a Horseman.

Boggs. a cadet cavalry officer at
West Point academy. was an assist
ant in the riding hall. On one occa-
sion he overheard Whistler, who thor
oughly disliked TO ride, objecting siren
uously to the horse brought for his
use. The horse. he argued. was too
heavily built and much too large for a
man of his size. Whistler. with much
vehemence. urged the man next him
to 'swap." The man with whom he
wished to exchange horses was of
muscular build and a pretty generous
size and his horse lightweight an
imai. so it seemed TO Whistler that it
would be most fitting exchange"
"Oh. don't swap. Don't you swap.
Mr.. Whistler cried the dragoon.
"Yours is a war horse. sirw
"A war horse." exclaimed Whistler.
'That settles it. certainly don't want
him.

man. Hes a war horse. tell you. for
he'd rather die than run" Century.

Buried Landscapes.

One of the most curious results OF
geological exploration is the discovery
of buried landscapes" by which is
meant parts of the former face of the
earth now covered under later depos-
it's, but yet retaining so many Of their
original features that the geologist can
ideally reconstruct the scenes that
would have been presented to the eye
of man if he had been present among
them. Sometimes buried landscapes
exist in countries now densely inhabit-
ed. Investigation has shown that one
lies beneath the region in England
known as Charnwood forest. The
rocky projections seen there are the
peaks and aretes of a buried mountain
chain belonging to the old red sand
stone period. Several different phases
In the history Of this landscape have
been traced. At one time it contained
salt lakes and desert expanses. In its
modern form it is pastoral region.
