The Dragon Flag of Wales. "Quarterly azure, and gules, four j Hons passant gardant counter-charg- | ed.” Walsh people desire the Welsh j arms added to the standard, and Lon- j don heralds say that if Wales has any j arms, these are they. But are the , heralds correct? The dragon of Brit ain figures in Gildas as well as In Tennyson, anvt the dragon was the flag of the Dux Britanniae of Roman days. ] The house of Cunedda appears to have i kept the dragon flag and the title of King of Britain for a time. After Cadwallon’s death, however, they be come merely princes, and curiously adopt the lion as their emblem, while the dragon passes perhaps as part of the hegemony of the island to the Saxon Kings of Wessex. Hastings field made an end of the dragon as an English flag. The dragon, however, became the Welsh flag again when Owen Glendower, “by the grace of God Prince of Wales,” rose in revolt against Henry IV., and it was also under the Red Dragon that Henry VII. (who claimed to be heir of Arthur and Cadwallon) marched to Bosworth. That dragon flag was subsequently hung up at Westminster. There is, however, some historical justification for adding the red dragon to the Eng lish standard to represent Wales. It would, however, be interesting to know the exact device on the flag of the Britons borne before Charles 1., when as Prince of Wales he kept court at Ludlow Castle. —The Saturday Review Sand and the Suez Canal. One of the problems which has given the management of Suez Canal much trouble is that of the sand that blows into it, adding to the dredging ex penses. A considerable number of plants have been tried in the effort to fix the sands so that a comparatively small quantity would be blown into the canal. All of these plants have failed except one, which. It is now believed, will be quite effective in keeping the sand in place. This large plant is the casuarine tree. It thrives in the southern hemisphere, and grows well on the sand batiks that skirt the Suez Canal. It not only survives intense drought, but also ex cessive humidity, which is important, s* the northern part of the canal is subject to Inundations at some periods and droughts at other seasons of the year. The roots of this tree penetrate the sand so deeply that they tap subter ranean sources of water. Many of the trees planted 25 years ago have thrived so well In their new habitat that they are now over forty feet in height. Ail who have studied the problem of sand fixation are certain that this tree will offer important re sistance to the movement of sand along the canal. Steps are being tak en to plant It extensively.

M’KINLEY IS ILL President’s Itinerary Is Changed Somewhat as a Result. LIVELY ROW OVER PRECEDENCE Ohio Party and Governor Nash’s Crowd Make a Big Howl Over Al leged Slight Accorded Them. The sudden illness of Mrs. McKinley has caused an unexpected change in the itinerary of President McKinley. He arrived in San Francisco Sunday afternoon several hours ahead of the time scheduled. The state of Mrs. Mc- Kinley’s health was such that the president decided to leave Delmonte with his wife for the home of Henry T. Scott, in San Francisco, where she could have complete rest and where a specialist could be consulted, if neces sary. Ohio Party Oiscomfitted. The Ohio party en route to San Francisco to see the launching of the battleship Ohio, enjoyed a sojourn at Del Monte, Cal., Saturday. The Ohio party and Governor Nash’s party clashed over a question of precedence, and harmony is wanting. The people of California have been very cordial, but naturally President McKinley has received the most attention, and Gov ernor Nash and party, who are travel ing on a separate train, have been a little in the background. At Los An geles it was all McKinley, and the Ohio senatorial party felt slighted. The chagrin of the party experienc ed over its alleged mistreatment at Los Angeles became more intense as the time passed and broke out into open revolt at conferences in the Ho tel Delmonte. The special cars bear ing the Ohio congressmen were at tached to the Ohio special at Los An geles. This seemed to add to the ill feeling of the governor’s party, who complained tnat they had been an an nexed section to the president’s party, and now were given third place. The congressmen seemed equally dissatisfied with the new arrangement, and finally it was decided that the congressmen should travel as they had done before reaching Los Angeles. The cars of the congressmen were ac cordingly taken off the Ohio special at Delmonte, and they left for San Fran cisco at noon Saturday, while Gover nor Nash and party left at 2 p. m. for San Francisco. Then Colonel J. B. El lison and Willis G. Bowland, who have charge of all arrangements for Gover nor Nash and the Ohio special, met a committee from San Jose and notified Chairman Minor that they would not visit San Jose as an annex of any other party. It was then decided that the special would go from San Francisco to San Jose Sunday night. It was also speci fied that the Ohio special would leave San Jose before the presidential train arrived. WANT DOLE REMOVED. Hawaiian Legislature and Governor of Island at Loggerheads. Advices from Honolulu state that the first territorial legislature of Ha waii came to an end on the evening of April 30th, according to Governor Dole, and on the next night, according to the majority of both houses. The legislature ended its existence at log gerheads with the governor and with out having passed a single important measure to which the home rulers were committed except the county government act, which the governor killed by a pocket veto. The last act of the house on the evening of the 30th was to pass a concurrent resolution containing a me morial to President McKinley asking for the removal of Governor Dole. He is charged with having hindered the work c £ the session by his hostility toward the legislature, withholding in formation ana reports mat were called for, ami refusing to co-operate with the law-makers. President McKinley is ashed in the resolution to use his In fluence in behalf o. an extra session of the legislature to transact general leg islation which General Dole refuses to grant. STRIKE SEEMS INEVITABLE. Machinists Are determined that Their Demands Shall Be Granted. The representatives of the Machin ists and Allied Metal Trades National and International Unions, who have been in session in Washington for two days considering the enforcement of a demand that .union machinists here after shall be required to work only nine hours a day with an increase of wages that would make the daily pay the same as under the present ten hour scale, late Tuesday afternoon de cided that there should be a strike on May 20th in shops refusing to grant the desired concessions. * _ PORTO RICAN GOODS SEIZED.

WILL AWAIT DEVELOPMENTS. United States Remains Quiescent In Row With Sultan. A Washington special says: In re i gard to the reported trouble with Tur key about foreign post offices and the talk of a naval display in Constantino ple by Great Britain and other nations, it is believed that the United States will allow the other nations to take the initiative. The interests of nations nearer Turkey are so much greater than those of the United States that it is likely that they will lead in any move that may be made. TO COERCE SULTAN. Powers May Force Turkish Ruler to Yield on Post Office Matter. The correspondent at Paris of the Associated Press learns on trustwor thy authority that unless the sultan of Turkey yields on the question of in terference with the foreign post offices the powers will probably present an ultimatum in a few days, backed by a naval demonstration. The powers, in cluding Germany, are acting in perfect unison in this matter. SCHLEY HURRYING HOME. Illness of His Son Curtails Admiral’s Visit on the Continent.

REDUCING ASIATIC FLEET. Admiral Kempff Ordered to Send Home Three More Vessels. The navy department has sent or ders to Rear Admiral Kempff, acting commander of the Asiatic station, to send home the ships Concord, Mariet ta and Castine during the latter part of the coming summer. This is in pursuance of the policy announced some time ago of reducing the naval strength in the east.

When this long canal is blockaded* look out for trouble —furred tongue* bad breath* belching of gases, vallow spots* pimples and boils* headaches* spitting up of food after eating —an all-around disgusting nuisance. Violent calomel purges or griping salts are dan gerous to use for cleaning out the bowels. They force out the obstruction by causing violent spasms of the bowels, but they leave the intestines freak and even less able to keep up regular movements than before, and nuke a larger dose necessary next time.
