Asstory has been published recently to the effect that in the headquarters of the memorial committee of the Grand Army of the Republic in the basement of the Brooklyn city hall may be seen a flag that hasa history of real inter- est. It issaid to be the standard to which Jobn A. Dix referred when he sent his famous message: “If any one attempts to haul down the American flag shoot him on the spot.” The story goes on to say that this flag was on the masthead of the revenue cutter Harriet Lane at that time, 1861, and it was the commander of the Lane who telegraphed to Secretary Dix to know what he shonld do if any attempt was made to take down that flag. In conversation with a Star Feporter today an old revenue marine officer said that it was very clear to him that there was some mistake about the flag. “In the first place,” said he, “that standard was not on the Harriet Lane at all, but on the revenue cutter Kobert MeClelland, which was on duty at the time in the Mississippi below New Orleans. Mr. Hatch, collector of the port at New Orleans, ordered Capt. Breshwood of the McClelland to anchor her opposite the city for the purpose of getting her into the sion of the state of Louisiana. Mr. Hatch was in & conspiracy against the United States and Capt. Lreshwood was involved in it also. “It was not the commander of the Lane that telegraphed to John A. Dix for instructions, but it was Mr. W. H. Jones, a special agent of the treasury. It was to him, at New Orleans, that Secretary Dix sent his’ famous message | bidding him tell Lieut. Caldwell to arrest Capt eshwood and assume command, and in case Capt. Breshwood interferred with the com- mand of the cutter to treat him asa mutineer. The message closed with the famous phrase with reference to the American flag. “But the tlag that was on the cutter McClel- land was nota ional flag at all, but a rev- enue marine flag. Overcome by the Heat. Yesterday George Young, a white man of forty-five years, living at 907 1st street south- west, was overcome by the heat at $d street and Maryland avenue and sent to his home. Frank King, living at 1135 4th street north- west, was sunstruck yesterday while working in an excavation at 18th and E streets northwest. Alex. Meehan of 610 Virginia avenue was overcome by the heat at 512 12th street north- west yesterday and taken to the Emergency Hospital. John Fields, employed on the Washington and Georgetown railroad, was overcome by the heat on Pennsylvania avenue and 25th street yesterday and taken to his home, 10067th street southeast. James Davis, an old colored man, shoving a scow in the river, was overcome by the h yesterday and was attended by Dr. at the Emergency Hospital. ————_— Supposed Case of Incendiariam.

Sometime ago he had an idea that he would like to join Uncle Sam's army, and so he enlisted in the marine corps. Soldier life was not what he thought it was and he soon tired of it. The only way to give it up was to desert, and that was the course he adopted. If that had been all, he would have gotten off with light punishment in amilitary guard house or other prison, but he did something else that put bim in the hands of the federal authorities, and his chances for escaping the Albany penitentiary are exceed- ingly slim. After deserting the marine cory he hired a horse and buggy from Burgdorf’s livery stable and started west, probably ii tending to return home. He could not drive all the way to Chicago and he was short of funds, so he stopped at the house of Farmer Jackson near the Great Falls and offered the turnout for $200. The amount was too large for the countryman, and the young man finally said he would take #75 cash. Even that, the farmer said, was more money than he had about him, but he told Young that he would go to the and get the money, and there's where the countryman caught him’ ina trap. He had no ide of getting the money, but came here in rch Of an officer, and when he returned De- tective Mattingly went with him. Young. or Underwood, ax he gave his name, returned to the city with the officer, and yesterday in the Police Court he plead guilty to the charge. Judge Miller held him in §500 bail for the grand jury. SJANDORF CONVICTED. Judge Bradley's Plain and Forcible Charge tothe Jury. Yesterday afternoon in the Criminal Court the jury in the case of Henry Jandorf, alias Solomons, found him guilty of violating the humane law in sending his child wife to a house of ill fame. The defendant was completely un- nerved on the rendition of the verdict. A number of exceptions were taken by his coun- sel, Mr. Bendheim, to the rulings of the court and he gave notice of a motion for a new trial. Judge Bradley, in charging the jury, said the policy of the law was to prevent just what was charged in this case—the sending of girls under eighteen years of age to lives of prostitution. It was no justification if the girl had made a misstep previously or that he was persuaded. It was known that she was under age and even if she expressed a desire to go to such place the defendant should have taken no steps toward placing her there. It was his duty to dissuade er from such course if his story was true. The jury were out but a few moments. EB AS Strawberry and Icc Cream Festival. The Memorial Chapel of Calvary Bap- tists Charch held a most successful enter- tainment and strawberry festival on Monday and Tuesday evenings. The festival was under the management of Mr. Charls E.

On Monday evening there was a hoop drill under the tutelage of Miss Jessie Hodg- kins, after which Mr. M. F.

About a quarter of a mile to the south of the Aqueduct bridge, ina gathering of shanties known as “Bricktown,” a great many families ‘are suffering with chillsand fevers. The in- habitants of the little place are mostly forcign- ers and as they tell the stranger in their broken English the story of their trials and sufferings the sadness of their condition is added to. Like the majority of poor men, their families are very large and every day they absent them- selves from the » where they are mostly employed, means a seantier meal on the follow- ing. A number of colored families also live about here, bu: the chills and fevers do not seem to affect them as much as they do the for- eigners. The dwellings of these xr white men are no better than their condition, being constructed of rough pine boards rudely nailed together, and the large cracks serve as ready entrances for heat, cold and rain. The furni- ture within consists of, generally, a broken stove, a board laid across two trels for & table and several soap boxes as chairs. The bed is but several dirty blankets piled in a heap in the corner. In one room, dimensions ot which did did not exceed eight by ten feet, was noticed sickly children, two of whom the stricken mother said baye been ill for two months. They lay there gcarcely covered with clothes or blankets, with bottle filled with milk between them, and their dark little eves turned hun- grily toward the smoked ceiling. On each be- ing given a sinall piece of money it ly, and for an instant their faces as- sumed a brighter aspect only to relay again into their first appearance. The needs of poor families are certainly great, and their small and irregular wages are not sufticient to supply the necessities of lite. 4 HIGH SCHOOL ProxIc. The pupils of the Western High School gave a well-attended and exceedingly enjoyable pic- nic last night on the Virginia shore near the Potomac landing. The party went in steam- boats, flat-bottomed boats and gigs and the hillsides echoed with their joyous songs as the pienicing grounds were neared. On their ar- Tival all-sorts of games were played, dancing was indulged in, and the declamations and cho- ruses made the evening pass pleasantly. Nearly the whole school attended, besides many invited guests. WORK ON THE CABLE ROAD. Work on this end of the cable road is pro- gressing rapidly and in a week or two the torn- up dusty street will be repaved and the work- men moved further eastward. The condition the street is in has really affected the business on it, the merchants say, but they do not com- plain. They only wish for the speedy com- pletion of the road. Bridge street being so much more narrow than the avenue the oceu- pation of it by the railroad company is more greatly felt. POLICE COURT MATTERS. Jonas Rhodes, a colored boy, has been em- ployed at the steam flying horses and last Mon- day he was found wearing an outing shirt that had been stolen from his employer, Mr. Ryan. As he was suspected of being dishonest Mr. Ryan discharged .him, and before leaving he attempted to get even by trying to burn the tent. He was arrested, and in addition to being charged with larceny a charge of arson was preferred against him. The case was heard in the Police Court thismorning and Jonas was held on both charges. For the larceny he was fined $10 or thirty days and on the charge of arson he was held in $500 bail for the grand jury. Maria Hamilton and Florence Hall were in 5 | Judge Miller's court today charged with keep- ing disorderly houses. ‘The testimony of sev- eral police officers convinced the judge that the houses kept by the women should be broken upand he therefore fined them $25 or sixty days each.
