Worn by One of Our Battleships and
Consists of Flags.
Few realize the number of flags car
ried by a warship nor tho cost of all
the gay bunting which flutters from
mast to mast at holiday time. In ad
dition to fleet communication neces
eary during maneuvers in home water
says Army and Navy Life the ship
must be equipped with an extensive
array of flags on board for various
forms of ceremonial and official occa
slons.
This dress suit outfit of bunting con
slsts of 250 different flags tho materi
al and making of which cost just
$2500. Each ship is entitled to a new
flag equipment every three years
though owing to their constant use
a flagship will often require a new Bet
of signals in about a year.
A great deal more time and labor
is required to finish certain of these
flags than is generally supposed. -The
president's flag equires the longest
time of any to make as it takes one
treatment. The little fellow had
been ill for some time and the fond
parents were taking him to Ht. Louis
where he might have the best medi
cal treatment possible.
' Ills remains were brought to Vini-
ta on the Katy flyer this morning and
will be laid to rest tomorrow after
noon in the city cameUry.
Yes IJaby is dead a cloud of gloom
has hovered oyer a happy home. The
merry chatter of a baby's voice has
been silenced by death. It life was a
bright and fragrant iflower that
bloomed tn the morning and faded be-
fore the bright and refulgent rays of a
a noonday sun.
It broueht gladness and left sor-
row but in the taking away the grief
stricken parents should feel that the
precious one is safe in the carej?f Him
who doeth all things well ana that
only a short span lies between them
and the time when they will join the
one whom death cruelly snatched from
the bosom of the loving mother and
devoted father. The Chieftain ex
tends to them the deepest sympathy
and in the hour of grief they have a
host of friends who will skare with
them the great burden they have to
bear.
The life-sized eagle with out
stretched wings and other emblems
are all hand-sewed and Involve the
most patient work.
The most difficult to make are the
foreign flags. This is especially true
of the South and Central American
ones.
A half dozen specially skilled hand
device sewers are continually kept on
these flags. Every battleship carries
43 foreign flags 25 feet by 13 wide.
The most expensive ensign to make is
the German which owing to the dell
cate scrollwork of the large imperial
eagle and royal crown necessitating
delicate slow and careful sewing
costs $56.50.
The dragon flag of China consists of
200 Renarate nieces. Twelve to 14
days are ordinarily consumed in fin'
ishing this flag which costs $51.75.
The flag of Siam with the huge
white elephant coBts $38. The Mexi
can with its center design of a large
eagle holding a serpent on its bill
costs $39.50. The cheapest foreign flag
made is the Moorish which costs $21

"Antony and Cleopatra"
Chas B. Ilanford appeared for the
first time In Vinita last night in
Antony and Cleopatra and was greeted
with not the largest audience of the
season but as enthusiastic one. Mr.
Ilanford carries one of the best
companies ever seen here. While Mr.
ilanford Is a star and his acting
shows a through knowledge of
Shakespear his Co. is so well balanced
that even his and Miss Miller's superb
acting could not detract from them
their share of praise. Miss Miller
Interpolation of Cleopatra was equaly
as good as Mr. Ilanfords of Antony
and with the support of such a strong
Co; fine costumes scenery and

Praised Edgar Allan Poe.
When H. G. Wells the English nov
elist. was in Boston he praised Poe
at a dinner. "I think hardly of your
New England writers" he said "for
their contempt of Poe. I shall never
be able to forget that Emerson called
him 'that Jingle man.' To-day a thou-
sand read Poe where one reads Env
erson and not to know Poe's work is
rather a disgrace. There is a little
inn at home. It is rather a poorly
conducted little inn. The landlady
gets every visitor to write something
about it in a kind of autograph album
that she keeps on her drawing room
table. One visitor wrote in the rd-
bum many years ago: 'Quoth the
raven ' The landlady did not un-
derstand that quotation. She was not
well up in Poe. And ever since that
time she has shown the cryptie line
to every guest entreating him to tell
her if he can it's meaning. But the
guests are always too polite to tell
her. They pretend they do not know.
And hence year after year to every
visitor that comes the poor landlady
with her album gives herself away."

She that stints her heart to feed her

tho ghost of her husband's first love.
No man remembers any woman that

And What Could He Say?
"Ethelberta" said the young man
pressing her more firmly to his man
ly bosom "Ethelberta mayhap I
have no right to ask this question
but I must Have have you ever
kissed another man as you have just
kissed me?" There was silence for
a brief instant Then in a low pained
voice Bha spoke: "Oh! Julius how
can you ak? Believe me darling my
heart and my lips are as fresh and
virgin as your own!" And he spoke
no more but pondered.
New Relationship.
"Probate court is a great place for
untangling relationships and such
things" said Judge Merle N. A. Walk
er "but an entirely new relationship
new at least as far as I am concern
ed was brought out here recently.
"A case on trial rested largely on
the establishment of the fact that one
of the parties in the suit a woman
was compelled to 'work out' for her
living. One of the witnesses testified
he knew she did so.
" "How do yo know?' he was asked.
" 'I've seen her.'
" 'Are you around there often?'
" 'Well yes you might say so.'
" 'Kind of relation of the family
huh?'
" 'Well no and yes. I'm the mall
man.'" Indianapolis News.

Had No Use for "Jockey Pants."
John Sharp Williams is extremely
carelesT about his dress and does not
care about fine clothes on anyone else.
In a recent campaign he offered his
services to the Democratic speakers'
bureau and was sent north to help
out a congressional nominee. When
he returned to headquarters and was
plied with questions he said: "Don't
you know that fellow came down to
meet me in a pair of fashionable rid-
ing breeches and started to go around
with me with them on. I Just up and
told him that if he wanted to go to
consiess he had better take oft those
Jockey pants. After he left the blamed
things off we got along all right."

Scientist's Color Sense.
Rosaline Masson tells interesting
stories in Cornhill of Herbert Spen-
cer's color sense. Once he paid a boy
to get down on the floor and ink the
light Fpots in the carpet as they an-
noyed him. He used to cover up the
titles of books with drab curtains as
they annoyed him. She also adds one
never hears of women doing any of
these queer things for which men of
talent are remarkable. It is just pos-
sible that it Is because they have
never done such things that few of
them have as yet arrived at greatness.
Chicago Daily News.
Occasional attacks of backache ir-
regular urination headaches and
dizzy spells are common early symp-
toms of kidney disorders.' It's an
error to neglect these ills. The attacks
may pass off for a time but retnrnj
with greater Intensity. If there ara
symptoms of dropsy puffy swellings
below the eyes bloating of the limbs
and ankles or any part the body
don't delay one minute begin taking
Doan's Kidney pills and keep up the
treatment until the kidneys are well
when your old time health and vigor
will return. Cures fn Vinita prove
the effectiveness of this great kidney
remedy.
Daniel Duncan farmer 3 miles west
or vinita saysv "lor some time l
suffered from palnS through my loins
and kidneys which were often so
severe that I could hardly rise from a
chair without assistance I was also
troubled with a too frequent action of
trie kiJneys headaches and dizzy
spells. Hearing about Doan's Kidney
pills 1 procured a box at t he i'eople s
Drug Store and fcommenced their use.

troubles and urt until the present
time there has been no recurrence."
