vestigated the subject, that the Fort
Stanwix flag was tricolor of red,
white and blue stripes, and not red
and white stripes with blue field up
on which appeared stars. In fact so
far as documentary evidence is con-
cerned, there is no mention of stars,
so that it now seems certain that the
Fort Stanwix flag was neither the ''first
Stars and Stripes to face the enemy"
nor the first Stars and Stripes to be
hoisted over an American fort"
There are at least two other occa-
sions upon which it has been asserted
that the Stars and Stripes were first
carried into BATTLE, and therefore
''first faced the enemy" The usual
statement is that this first occurred at
the Battle of Brandywine on Septem-
Der IL, 1777. But this is disputed by
the citizens of Delaware who declare
that this took place at the only Revo-
lutionary engagement fought in that
state, and that was eight days before
Brandywine. A monument declaring
tmat ''The Stars and Stripes were first
unfurled in battle at Cooch's bridge
September 8, 1777," was erected there
in 1901 as proof of their belief.
But New York, Pennsylvania and
Delaware are not the only states
which claim that honor. Vermont al
so claims it and apparently she has
the strongest evidence that has yet
been brought forth to support the
claim. Researches made by John
Spargo, president of the Vermont His
tOrical society, have revealed the fact
that when John Stark defeated the
British and Hessians at the famous
Battle of Bennington on August 16,
1777, his men fought under an Amer
lean flag that was made of thirteen
red-and-white stripes and a field Of
blue upon which appeared thirteen
white stars arranged in the form of
circle. That flag is preserved in the
Bennington battle museum and the
evidence in support of the fact that
"the Stars and Stripes first faced the
enemy" and that 'Old Glory received
it's first baptism of fire" at the Battle
of Bennington on August 16, 1777,
more than year before Cooch's
Bridge or Brandywine, seems indisput-
able. But, at that, Vermont, in depriv-
ing New York of the honor by proving
that the Fort Schuyler banner was not
true Stars and Stripes, must share
its honor witt tbs Empire state. For
the so-called Battle of Bennington was
not fought at Bennington at all. 1t
was fought six miles from Bennington
at Walloomsac, and Walloomsac is on
the soil of New York!
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1928-06-01

for the flag listed above are too OBJ
vious to need explanation.
Due to the fragmentary records in
the early history of the flag, there
have been a number of disputed points
in regard to the matter of historical
firsts." Did Betsy Ross of Philadel-
phia or Francis Hopkinson of New
Jersey design the frs. Stars and
Stripes? No one can say for certain.
Within the last year a new story
about the first Stars and Stripes has
come to light. Among the effects of
Capt. John Hubert, who commanded
a Long Island company which went
to Ticonderoga at the outbreak of the
war and returned with British pris-
'Oners to show to congress in Philadel-
phia on November 20, 1775, has been
found a flag, believed to have been
the company flag of Captain Hulbert's
organization, which has thirteen red
and white stripes and thirteen six
pointed stars which are arranged in
a sort of cross. This flag was found
in the attic of an old Long Island
home and is now in the possession of
William D. Halsey of Bridgehampton.
Historians, who have seen the flag and
the documents found with it, believe
it possible that this flag, carried by
Captain Hulbert's men, made such an
impression upon the members OF con-
gress that, when they came to adopt
national ensign, they simply asked
a local seamstress, (Betsy Ross), to
make similar flag. Or HOpkinson
may have seen it, made design aft
err it and submitted to congress that
design which was accepted and which
led to the historic resolution of June
IA, 1777.
Just as there is a dispute over the
origin of the Stars and Stripes, so is
there dispute over the question of
when the new flag, after its adoption
by congress, received its first baptism
of fire. The usual view is that this
occurred at Fort Schuyler Cor Fort
Stanwix) near Rome, N. Y, on Au-
gust 3, 1777. However, it has been
pointed out by historians, who have in
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1928-06-01

u6r OF fTeeQOul, the Idlu-
bow of Hope, or the "Colors." They
all mean the same, for they all refer
to the Flag, the symbol of the United
States of America, and June IA of each
year is Flag day, a day for honoring
the Flag.
How did it get all of those names?
They are a part of the story of Old
Glory, the story of one of the oldest
national standards of the world with
its century and half of thrilling in
cident and history-making events. On
June IA, 1777, the Second Continental
congress in session at Philadelphia
passed a resolution which stated that
the flag of the United States should
be thirteen stripes, alternate red and
white, that the union be thirteen
stars, white in blue field, represent
ing a new constellation" And that is
why we call the Flag the Stars and
Stripes or the Red, White and Blue.
On the night of September u, 1914,
Francis Scott Key, a young lawyer,
was detained upon board British
man-of-war, which was bOmbarding
Fort McHenry, the principal defense
of Baltimore and the national capital,
Washington, ID. @. All night long the
guns of the British fleet roared, and
oil night long the fort answered with
such artillery as could reach the en-
envy. As the dawn of September Ii
broke, Key strained his eyes to see
if the fort still held out or if its guns
had been silenced. When he saw that
"our flag was still there" he sat down
and on the back of an old envelope
expressed in poem his great joy that
'the Star-Spangled Banner doth wave,
Der the Land of the Free and the
Home of. the Brave" His poem, set
to music, became the national anthem,
and the Stars and Stripes became the
Star-Spangled Banner.
On August 10, 1881, Capt. William
Driver of the brig Charles Doggett,
ready to sail his ship to the South
Seas, was presented with a fine new
American flag, a magnificent banner
containing 40 yards of bunting. As
it was hoisted over the ship, the cap
tain named it "Old Glory" and Old
Glory, the American flag has been ever
since. The reason for the other names

Salt as a Condiment

Not all tribes of American Indians
were accustomed to use salt, whether
from the difficulty of procuring it, the
absence of the habit, a repugnance for
the mineral, or for religious reasons,
it is not always possible to say. Salt
was eaten as cOndiment, the only
instance of its use as preservative
being it's addition to yeast to prevent
putrefaction. The desire for salt is
presumed to arise from a physiological
