Uncle Sam’s Popular Flag Harvests.
•While the print-flag .manufactories
are busy all the year. October. Novem
ber, December arid January are the
strenuous months. Sales are greatest
In,, the late winter and^in the spring,
vriile the lafrger deliveries are in
April. May and June. The greatest
demand for flags Is from the New
England, Central and Western States,
although Pennsylvania leads all other
States in the number and cost of the
flags annually purchased. "The West
ern States, as a whole, are the lergest
consumers.
Not the least notable figure of the
development of flag sentiment, during
the last decade is the growing demand
for flags of the better grade. Public
sentiment concerning the American
flag .was never so reverent as today.
There are three days of the year when
the flag Is more in evidence than at
other times. The first is May 30. Mem
orial day, when the number of flags
used Is far grealer than at any other
time. -Next comes Flag day. June 14,
the anniversary of the adoption of the
flag, celebrated especially by the pub

locals had scored two runs off him.
while Jack had managed by suberb
pitching to pull out of two deep holes
In the first and second.
In those memorable innings no less
than five men were left on the bases
where they had died from lack of the
necessary play to score.
The locals waited until the third and
bunched a pile of hits which under
ordinary conditions would have won
a game. Well, the conditions were not
ordinary and the game was lost.
Fepe struck out in the third, but
Quinn lifted one over right field fence
which was good for two bases. Mur
doch hit the first ball - for left field
fence, but he had his usual luck and it
missed being good for the, fifth time
during the week. Not to be outdone,
however, the fleet-footed center fielder
tried another scheme and laid down a
bunt which looked to all appearances
as If it would roll outside the base
line. The ball suddenly stopped rolling
and before anybody ’had observed it,
Murdy was resting on first. Lipe sin
gled and Murdoch went to third, hav
ing gained second previous on an error
by Raymond. Quinn scored on the
play. Chandler attempted to work the
squeeze play and Murdoch ran toward
home, but was caught in a chase ow-
to Chandler’s failure to hit the
ball.. For a long time Murdy chased
up and down through the assemblage
of Gulls until Rafferty got the ball and
then both lit for home. -It was a race
between the two fleet-footed fielders
with the advantage in favor of Raf
ferty on account of having a better
start. At that, however, the race was
a close one. Murdoch finally being put
out by Rafferty’s outstretched arm.
Chandler then hit to second and Lipe
scored ahead of the throw-in- of
Shinp’s.
Now, it seemed after-this that the
locals could not help but win until the
fifth came. In this inning Mullin
walked. Griffin hit one to Lipe and
the ball took a bad bounce, allowing
both, to be safe. Meaney hit to Quinn
and Mullin was out at third. Rafferty,
after fouling the ball for a long whiie
finally drew four bad one. Then, this

He Disobeyed When
Warned off Course
NEW LONDON, Conn., June 27.—
The Yale-Harvard boat race- on the
Thames river today was accompanied
by one disagreeable incident. This was
the arrest of E. H. Harriman, the
railroad magnate, by Lieutenant-
Commander Roscoe C. Bulmer,
President Roosevelt’s naval aide.
Lieut. Bulmer, who was in charge of
the revenue cutters, had warned every
boat owner not to follow the race.
The big ’varsity struggle had scarcely
been' started when Mr. Harriman. in a
powerful motor boat, started to follow
the race. Lieut. Bulmer and Chairman
Schweppe, who were aboard the
regSfla committee boat, the Arrow, re
peatedly warned Mr. Harriman to stop
his engine and get out of the course.
Mr. Harriman not only paid no atten
tion to them, hut took a position right
alongside of the referee’s boat and
held it. Off the navy yard. Lieut.
Bulmer signaled for a launch and toot
ed the revenue cutter whistle, which
finally caused Mr. Harriman to look
around.
"You are under arrest, sir,” shouted
Lieut Bulmer. “You will give your
self up to this man, who will take
you aboard the Gresham to await my
orders.”
Then it was discovered that the
man in the powerful and speedy mo
tor boat was Mr. Harriman. Chair
man Schweppe. of the regatta com- j
mittee, was angry, and he shouted to !
Mr. Harriman in terms which the lat- •
ter could not mistake.
The millionaire leveled his forefin- 1
ger at Chairman Schweppe and yelled (
back:
“Young man. I will see you later.”
Schweppe’s friends aboard the Ar- ;
row gave Mr. Harriman a gentle laugh. !
Mr. Harriman saw no more of the j
race, but was detained as any ordinary |
prisoner aboard the Gresham until
after the race was over, when Lieut.
Bulmer went aboard the Gresham and
released Mr. Harriman, but ordered
his boat tied up at the navy yard. The
Incident may cost Mr. Harriman a fine
of $500. This was the penalty im
posed on a yacht owner at last year's
race for transgressing the rules gov
erning the course.
SHERIFF SHIPP TOLD
OF JOHNSON LYNCHING
CHATTANOOGA. June 27.—When
the Shipp contempt case was called
after recess Sheriff Shipp was called
to the witness stand In the defense
of himself and his deputies. He teld
'all the circumstances connected with
the lynching of Ed Johnson’from the
time he first heard of a mob. through
the telephone suggestion of Attorney
General M. N. Whitaker, how he rush
ed into the jail, was captured by the
mob and imprisoned in the bath room
while the mob took the negro, and
how he had done everything in his
power to proty.t the rapist from mob
violence. He went home at 6:30 that
night intending to do some work at
home. The Attorney General called
him up and told him there was a mob
at the jail. He went there immediate
ly, pushing his way through the
crowd. He saw the jailor in. one cor
ner of a room guarded by three or
four men. He started to his aid but
was attacked from behind and made
prisoner. He was so firmly held that
physical resistance was useless. The
sheriff said he did not recognize any
one he saw except Dr. Sutton Night
Jailor Gibson. Frank Stoops and two
newspaper men. These, he said, Were,
not engaged in the lynching. Some of
the lynchers were masked and others
were not. He was guarded closely
while the mob secured the negro and
got away.
At the morning session Deputies
Galloway and Baker told of their part.

The Test of the Hobo.
From the New York Mail.
A pet hypothesis of the American
collectivists Is that the hobo, conceded
to be a- national nuisance, is a product
and consequence of capitalism. He is
idler and parasite at best and malefac
tor at worst, simply because long,
harsh years of wealth’s despotism have
deprived him of ail regular outlet and
demand for >7iis labor. Capital has
weaned him away from the will and
energy to add by his toil to the wel
fare and happiness of his fellows. But
that desire rests with him, lacking only
opportunity to revive: otherwise the
theory of the oppressed proletariat held
by those greatest of theorizers, the
soclaists,. falls to the ground.
"We are not such Utopians as to be
lieve that the apologists for the hobo
will be consistent enough to rejoice
because he is to have a chance lo
“make his proofs.” Nothing short of
obliteration of all existing civilization
could suit those large-idead individ
uals. Commonplace people who believe
I that annihilation is not the preface to

outline of their plan:
Vagrants can be divided into the em
