II RETURN OF THE

TO-.
The return Of Confederate fass
captured by Union soldiers is an.
other strand to bind together the
north and the south in an un.
broken union. There were some
who thought that all the oppos-
ing regimental days should have
been buried with the honors Of
war ut the close OF the conflict,
nevermore to have . resurfec-
ton. But they have been kept,
and now the Union soldier thinks
fondly Of bis own colors. rent
and stained. hanging In shreds
and patches. but sim the royal
emblems Of glory, and ultimate
victory. Let him rec them, and
he will press them to his lips
and rain tears Of Joy upon their
tattered folds. His heart inter
prets the feelings Of his Confed.

Fifty years ago the great strug-

which so many heroes gave

SUSPICIOUS DEATH
IN WINCHESTER
Frank Salawski Died of Apparent Poi
soning-Brother Causes Arrest of
Felix Buchanowski.

Felix Buchanowski of Winchester,
y. H., is under arrest on suspicion OF
having caused the death by poisoning
of Frank Salawski, OF that town, who
died under rather suspicious eircum-
stances 1T the hospital in Keene Friday
morning. Salawski had been i'll two
weeks, apparently suffering from some
form of poisoning. He was taken to
the hospital last week Monday but the
case failed to respond to treatment. a
post moftem examination was made by
Medical Examiner Dinsmore of keene
and some OF the organs were sent to
Concord for analysis, but the report
from there has not been received.
Buchanowski was arrested on com
plant of Adam Salawski a brother of
the deceased and was taken before the
district court in Winchester Saturday
lie pleaded not guilty to the charge
and because of the seriousness of the
charge Judge Pierce continued the ease
without evidence being submitted By
either side Buchanowsh was placed
in the hands of Winchester officers Il
await developments. The ease is de

that Salawski S death was not the re
suit of natural causes. There are nun
erous rumors afloat, however, Which

PRICE OF FLOUR
GOES SKYWARD
Best Grades Bring S7.15 in Chicago :
Advance of S1.S5 Since the
War Opened.

CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-War prices yes
terday not only hoisted wheat, but
dealt a stunning blow to consumers of
flour. Top grades of the best patent
flour. were elevated s. cents a barrel,
as compared with "a hours previous,
being held at $7.l5.
Second qualities Of flour that sold
for $3.50 last week were quoted at
$50 a barrel after yesterdays rise...
Flour that commanded today $7.t5. q.
barrel sold iii August for $3.50. The
reason given for the advance was the
fact that, owing to. the abnormal tlfue
ropean demand for breadstuffs, cash
wheat in Chicago had touched S1.36H
the highest January price in more than
DO years.
| Waves of buying in the wheat pit
on Change here carried the chief spec
aiatiSc option, May delivery, up to
$1.379s and u a leap of more than
| 10 cents week and of three cents or
more above last night.
| Many brokers declared that the
| latest upturn was merely another step
toward 81 wheat-that the price OF
the May option would go far beyond
the $1.S5 record established in the
Letter deal in 1898.
Such enthusiasts avowedly based
their predictions on belief that the
European war would last as much as
/ two years more.
On the other hand, the export buy
ing came to at least a temporary halt
today, so far as Chicago was concern
ed though not at the seabcard. It al
SO was a fact that great numbers Of
speculative traders, including many so
called 18th hour bulls, were. content t.
realize profits and get out. of the mar
ket.
Indeed at one time today during
backward sweep ;of prices some of TIL
: Iselling was said to be Of an ominou
stop-loss character.
