Worn.0ut Flags Destroyed by the Government

vXTORN-OUT national flags used by
w the United States government in
the army and navy, on public build
ings, etc, never become mere pieces
of waste rags. The government sets
an example for the whole country by
requiring that WORKOUT flags shall be
burned. Whether or not any special
regulation covers the disposition OF
old flags, the universal practice Of the
army and navy whenever a flag Is no
longer fit for service is that 1t shall
be destroyed.
When flag used at an army post or
on a naval vessel is no longer s.rvice-
able, requisition of the quarternaster
is made for a new one and the I'D one
is burned. The same disposition is
made OF flags from public buildings.
Whether or not custodians build
ings outside of Washington follow the
official plan Of destroying flag is not
known.
Flags borne in battle are Invariably
preserved. either by the commands
which carried them, or, under instruc-
tons by the war department, by the

Early in the Morning.

New York.-The liner Franconia ar
rived the other day from Liverpool
coming by way of the Cove of Cork
In the steerage was Bernard Fitz-
simmons, thirty-three years old, a
huge Welshman, he was qualified by
his stature and prowess to join the
list of white hopes. He held up the
steamer in the North river for a full
hour. The Franconia anchored at
Quarantine during the night. Brigth
and early the next morning the health
officers were aboard and all hands
were mustered, so that the vessel
might quickly so to her dock. In sin
gle file all the passengers passed by
the inspectors. Then, when COM
parson was made with the passenger
list it was found that there was one
shy. He was Barney Fitzsimmons'

Right roughly, the first steward. who
entered his sleeping quarters, ripped
the blanket from him and yelled at
him: Here, get out Of this. You're

Barney Fitzsimmons sat bolt up
right in bed.

The steward did not stand on cere-

he reported on deck, the quarntine Of

the situation. Six stewards were
sent into the steerage to bring the
recalcitrant on the deck by force.
Bring him any way. they were told.
But BRING him!
Down into the depths went the al
lies. They pulled the bed clothes of
the side partner of Morpheus and
dragged him out on the floor.
Barney Fitzsimmons was indignant
at this. He let out right and left

story
The murder is a result Of a quarrel
over the division of 1000 acres of
land in which Benneker and his wife
we're accused of having endeavored
to use undue influence on David Shear
in, the venerable head of the Shearin
family.
Thomas Shearin is said to have in
formed his father that the other chill
dren were quarreling over the division
of the estate.
Young Benneker. whose brother
married Shearin's sister, sided against
Shearin, and this resulted in tanning a
flame OF jealousy which began with
the arrival of the newly-married pair
on the Shearin ranch two months ago.
The murder was one of the most
cold-blooded and brutal in the his
tory of the county. Shearin. after
tying the girl-wife In a chair, calmly
sat down and waited for Benneker. who
was attending to his chores, to return
from the barn. AS Benneker opened
the door Shearin arose and with .

head. killing him almost instantly.

The six stewards turned pale. They

didn't want any more Of Mr.. Fftz-

gentleman from Wales. But sailors
and stewards to the number of IA
mustered, and marched down to the
steerage.
They didn't pull the blankets from
Fitz. They rolled him up in the blan-
kets. They made a straightjacket of
the blankets and he couldn't use his
hands or his feet. They carried him
up to the deck by sheer strength Of

ARIZ0NA'S ALIEN LAW
Even Mexicans Are Barred by New
Signed by Governor.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Arizona's new alien bill. 1t prohibits
any alien whether of Caucasian or
Monaghan descent, from owning land
in Arizona If he has not declared his
intention of becoming a citizen.
The law not only bars Asiatics, who
cannot become citizens. but also many
wealthy Mexicans, who live on the
American side OF the line, but who
have maintained their allegiance to
Mexico.
A vigorous fight was made to have
the bill apply only to aliens ineligible
to citizenship, so that Mexican holders
OF property in Arizona will not be ar.
fected. There are few Japanese hold
ing property In the state, but many
Chinese hold titles and these, like
the noncitizens among the Mexicans,
will be required to dispose of their
real estate within five years.
The law exempts only mining claims
held by aliens or real property neces-
eary to the proper working Of mines.
Representative japanese conferred
with the governor in an effort to in
duce him to veto the bin, but he do
clined on the ground that such a law
was necessary in the interests of the

st. Louis.-The Southern Baptist
convention chose Nashville, Tenn, as
che next place of meeting and fixed
May 13, 1914, as the date. The Rev.
DR.. George w. Mcdaniel of Richmond,
Va, will preach the convention SER
mon. The Rev. Forest Smith Of Sher-
man, Texas, was named as alternate.
Nashville was chosen after a con
test over the proposition to make
place.
A movement which has been going
on quietly for several years TO organ
fze all the Baptists west of the Mis-
sissippi river into a separate conven-
ton was met by the introduction OF
resolutions by President +. Y. Mullins
OF the Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary OF Louisville, which were
adopted expressing feeling of frater
nifty and sympathy for the work be
ing done in the theological seminaries
at Fort Worth, Texas, and Liberty,
Mo.
The question of giving free educa-
tional advantages TO young men who
wish to enter the Baptist ministry
was brought before the convention by
Mr.. Mullins. He offered a resolution
to call on the various states in the
convention for a share of $4,000, the
money to go to the school of which he
is the head, and which is in debt for
students expenses to that amount. He
said he believed that if the Baptists
would offer free education to minis
terial students. 30O0,OOO.O00 converts
could be won in China alone during
the next 25 years. The resolution was
adopted.
II was decided by the officers of the
convention that the proposed amend
ment to the constitution allowing wom-

have to go over until next year as it
had not been introduced on the first
doy's session.
The Rev. l.. V. Warran of Atlanta,

He said that more than fourth of
the amount had been raised and that
