Another fire at the American Wooden
company mills occurred yesterday after
noon about $3.50 o'clock in the dryers Of
mill No ]. but was soon extngushed
without much damage. The local fire
department was called out as well as the
chemical fire truck from Burlington.
The response by the departments came
very quick, but they did not string any
hose Happening as Il did during the
day when so many Were at work. three
streams from the mill hose were thrown
on in very quick time. A great portion of
the male help in this mill are members
Of the fire department. Had the fire
broken out about ten minutes later
there would not have been any water
in the mill wards, which would have
given the fire a great Roadway, with the
probable result of n big conhagration.
Tho high pressure pump which was
used at the fire in the carbonizing plant
fire last Friday night has since been out
Of commission. The parts needed have
arrived and workmen were about to shut
off the water to make the repairs ye~ter-
day afternoon when the report came
that there was a fire in mill No l. 1t
will be a year ago tomorrow afternoon
that the Burlington chemical was called
for a fire I'm this same mill.

A FAMOUS OLD FLAG.
The Star SpsngIed Banner of Fort Me-
 Henry In 1914.

The Star spsngIed Banner of Fort Me-
 Henry In 1914.
 Hanging from the walls of the Ma tional museum in Washington is one of the most famous flags in the world the star spangled banner that foated over Fort McHenry during the British attack in September, 1874. The flag measures no less than 26 by 36 feet. At the time of the battle Fort Me- Henry, just outside the city of Balti- more, was in command of Major George Armistead. The garrison flag that flew from it's ramparts was made by Mrs. Mary Pinkersgill. assisted by her daughter. Mrs. Caroline T. Purdy.
 In the battle one of the stars was shot away by British shell. After the war the banner became the property of Major Armistead and was left by him to his daughter. Mrs. Appleton. It was from the son of that lady. MT. Eben l Appleton. that the museum received 1t two years ago. The arrangement Is that the flag shall remain permanently in the custody of the museum and must not be permitted to leave the building to be exhibited anywhere else. Time has somewhat marred the beauty of the banner, but no American can look at the fading and worn fabric without a thrill That is the flag that gave birth to the national anthem of his country.-Youth's Companion.

The ancient Berbers. who still live in the mountain territory of Kabylia, were never conquered by Roman Goth. Vandal. Arab or Turk. They made their first obeisance before the firearms of the French under the sec ond empire. Through all these millen. niums they have lived in their popu- lous villages perched high on the tops of steep hills. Around them in all di- rections is zone of trees. with pas ture above. beginning at about 5000 feet. and the oft conquered open val leys below Here for unknown ages the Berber has lived among and from his trees There are four staples of life in Kabylia-dried figs. olives. bread and meat For miles there is one intending succession of villages set in this open forest of figs and olives Argonaut.

CLANMISH MANxMEN.

They Still Use Their Own Tongue In
 PromuIgating Their Laws.
 The Isle of Man is in the Irish chan. nel. about equidistant from England. Scotland and Ireland and is famed for its lovely scenery. excellent climate and the quaint old world flavor of its places and people.
 Home rule has been enjoyed by the Manxmen for many years. Although there are fewer than 6O.O0O Manxmen, they have their own parliament and courts. The house of keys and the house of lords hold annual sessions in Douglas, the capital, and the laws they pass are read aloud every year from Tynwald hill. The statutes are pro- claimed in the Manx tongue, a lan- guage as distinct from English as Ital- ian or German.
 The Isle of Man was long bone of contention among the kings of North umberland. Scotland. Norway and Eng land. The government, as it is in operation today in Hall Gaines island. was established by Orry, Scandina- vian adventurer who made himself king of the island He divided his kingdom into six sheadings. and this division. with four municipal districts, still serves in the election of members of the house of keys. The bishopric of the Isle of Man is declared to have been founded by St. Patrick. who stopped off and established the see while on his way to Ireland.-New York World.

Cordovan Leather Boots.

At the court of Elizabeth the wide topped Spanish boot, handsome and, to our eyes. theatrical, became popular among the rival courtiers. each en. deavoring to outvie the other in the queens eyes. The most handsome and admired of all were made of white Cordova leather. edged with costly lace and having gold spurs. Some times buff and red and much more rarely the now prevalent black leath. CT was the material. Boots for men seem to have gone out of fashion dur ing the Stuart era. so far as the upper classes went. Your plain citizen al- ways adhered to more or less sub stantial shoe when at home and sel. dom drew on boots save when on 8 journey.-London Saturday Review.
