Must Replace Flag, if Lowered.
WASHINGTON, April 27.-Palmas
Island belongs to the United States.
1t was included in the treaty cover
ing the Philippines Archipelago. If
there was any American flag afloat
on the island, which is doubted by Of
ficials of the Insular bureau, and the
colors were lowered, the Dutch will
have to replace the American colors.
The official explanation Of the re-
port that the Dutch had taken pos
session of the island and lowered the
American colors is that Dutch YES
sci may have been in port and raised
the Dutch flag, which was observed by
a passing vessel, whose officers jump
ed at conclusio on seeing the Dutch
flag flying. No significance is at
tached to the report by officials o.
the Insular bureau which had juris
diction oyerAthe Philippines.

life that while George was remark
ably studious he was also fond OF
"romping with one OF the largest
girls; this was so unusual that Il eX-
cited no little comment among the
other lads" II was while at this
school that George wrote the follow
