HONOR THE FLAG IN THE HOMES.

Sometimes we learn from foreigners
real lessons in patriotism. 1t was the
French wife of an American congress-
man who introduced the custom in Wash
ington of making the Stars and Stripes
as prominent as possible in the drawing G.
room decorations. It makes one feel like
throwing up his hat and cheering, too,
when he sees such manifestations of loy-
atty. The practice should find favor in
every American home; we made it rule
in ours some years ago that the flag
should claim its place of honor. This is
only little thing. perhaps, but what a
sad commentary it is upon great gov
eminent that in millions of homes can be
found not even the slightest evidence of
that sentiment that always wells up
magnifcently during a great crisis or
time of peril.
During the Civil War, for example,
there were few homes in which the flag
was not found. In these days of steam
radiators, telephones and all the prosaic
utilities that exist, it does seem refresh
ing to find sentiment in vogue that will
bring out the national colors from the
dusty garnet at other times than on ma
tional holidays. There has been time
and there may again come time when

HIS LAST VOYAGE.
Captain David A. Scribner, Well Known
Maine Schumacher. Dies in New York.


Maine Shipmaster, Dies in New York.
Capt. David A. Scribner, one OF Maine 9
best known shipmasters, died FEBRUARY
9Th in New York, aged about Q! years.
A widow, two daughters, MISS Ella
Scribner and Miss Mary Scrlpner, and
son, larry A. Scribner, all OF brooklyn,
survive.
Forty-three times around Cape Horn
is the remarkable record made by Capt.
Scribner during the 40 years that he
followed the sea, beginning IN 1850,
when he went to sea in the brunswlck-
built ship CONSIGNMENT, and ending in
1900, when he delivered the snip Henry
B. Hyde to new owners in California.
Capt. Scribner was born IN Iopsham,
his father being David Scrlbner, the
senior member of the well-known mill
ing firm of D. & C. e. Scribner of
Brunswick, which was established in
1859. Capt. Scribner succeeded his
father IN this firm, but owing 70 his alb
sence at sea was never actively connect
ed with the business.
Capt, Scribner remained on the ship
CONSIGNMENT two years, leaving her to
90 in the ship Charles S. Pencil, which
was also built in Brunswick. In 1865
Capt. Scribner entered the employ of
Chapman & Flint of New York, with
which firm he remained during the re-
mainder of his going to sea. He first
sailed on the ship Pactolus and was in her
for four years in the California trade.
In 1869 he sailed as chief officer of the
ship St. Charles and the next year took
command of the vessel. He was soon
transferred to the ship St. Lucie, which
he commanded for five years, most of
that time being engaged in the Califor-
MIA trade.
Capt. Scribner's next ship was the St.
John, which in 1882 he gave up to take
command of the new 1900 ton ship St.
Francis. He remained with this ship for
II wears, part of the time in the Califor-
mia trade, and part of the time carrying
case oil to various ports in Japan and tea
from there to San Francisco and Puget
Sound ports.
In 1900 he took command of his last
ship, the 2500-t ton ship, Henry B. Hyde.
His first voyage was from San Francisco
to Honolulu, where he loaded with 1000
tons of sugar for New York. In 1900 he
took the ship with load of coal for Hon
oulu, after which he was to deliver the
vessel to new owners in California.
When off Cape Horn, 1,400 miles from
Valparaiso, Chill, the ship and cargo
were discovered to be on fire and for 10
days the men fought for their lives, fl
nally getting the vessel to port, where
the fire was drowned out In fighting
the fire Capt. Scribner burned his hands
terribly and for a time it was feared
that they would have to be amputated.
After delivering the vessel to her new
owners, Capt. Scribner returned to New
York, where he had since lived He was
one of the trustees of Sailors Snug Har-
Dor, New York, and was vice president
of the Marine Society of New York.

Cyclopaedia for February.

The average pugilist born in February
is quick-tempered and is not likely to re-
turn kiss for blow. 1t is, therefore,
advisable never to hit one of these save
in very dark spot, where you have am
pie provisions for getting away unob-
served before he RECEIVERS and discovers
your identity.
The February born should marry those
born in August, not because they are
temperamentally better suited to each
other, but for economical reasons. 1t
comes easier buying the family birthday
presents if there is considerable inter-
val between the days you celebrate.
If a child born in February hits a
hackman born on the 18th of March in
the back of his neck with slushy snow
ball at any time between January 23d
and April 9th it is sign of trouble for
the child, but whether trouble ahead or
at the rear depends entirely upon the
temperamental peculiarities of the hack
man-Harper's Weekly.
