Centennial.
"OLD GLORY" 100 YEARS OLD
September 12, 1814, Marked Opening
of Three-Day Enrjaaement In the
War Which Gave Nation
Most Stirring Anthem.
Unltlmoro, Md. Baltlmoro opened
wido her gates to guests from all over
the United States when the national
Star-Spangled Banner centennial was
opened thoro for a week's duration.
Sunday, Septombor C, was designated
as patriots' day, and was featured by
a music festival by a massed orches
tra and a chorus of 5,000 voices. Sep
tember 7 was featured as industrial
day with a parade of 600 floats. The
middle states regatta was rowed on
that day.
Francis Scott Key day, on Septem
ber 8, was observed with a floral auto
mobile parade, a reception on battle
ships in tho harbor, a night carnival
and tournament and colonial lawn
fetes. On September 10, fraternal
day, a parade with 60.000 fraternal
men in line, accompanied by 50 bands
and 60 floats, was followed in tho
evening by a fraternal ball.
September 11 was celebrated as
army and navy day In tho evening
there was a military ball to the presi
dent, the cabinet, state governors and
other distinguished guests. Septem
ber 12, Star-Spangled Banner day, saw
tho original flag of Stars and Stripes
borne through the city to Fort Mc-
Francis Scott Key.

ident Wilson, state governors and a
picked guard of 100 men from each
Of the states of the union in 1814.
President Wilson addressed the
guests at the dedication of Fort Mc
Henry as a city park. But perhaps
greatest of all spectacles was the for
mation of a living Star-Spangled Ban
ner by 10,000 school children, who
sang the national anthem to the ac
companiment of massed bands num
bering l.BOO musicians. Tho flnal day
was peace day, when universal peace
was the theme in all Baltimore
churches.
The summer of 1814 was not a
bright one for the arms of the United
States. On land it was marked by
constant defeat, culminating in the
burning of Washington August 23.
But the end of that summer, never
theless, witnessed a glorious event,
celebrated in deathless verse wrung
from the heart of a burning patriot,
who had witnessed the night bombard
ment of the fortress which protected
his native shores and knew not until
morning whether the bravo little fort
had successfully withstood the as
sault or not.
There was no telegraph in 1814, few
and sparse means of communication,
but- after the skirmish of August 23,
sometimes called "battle" of Bladens
burg, a little Maryland town, six miles
from Washington, where about three
thousand raw militia, mostly farmers,
were quickly routed by tho trained
veterans of Gen. Robert Ross, the Brit
ish commander, the air about Balti
more was alive with news and rumors
of disaster.
The British fleet, which had left Ber
muda a month before, Was sailing
along the Chesapeake bay and its trib
utary rivers, burning and destroying;
Washington was In ruins, owing to a
disgraceful act of vandalism perpe
trated mainly through the agency of
Admiral Georgo Cockbum, who after
wards conveyed Napoleon to St. Hel
ena. Baltimore seemed Irretrievably
doomed. In its defonso It could only
marshal n "home guard," principally
consisting of boys and old men of Bal
timore, a fow country companies of
militia, hastily recruited from sur
rounding Maryland townB.and from
York and Hanover In Pennsylvania,
and about one thousand real soldiers'
spared to tho defenso of the city, In
all about ton thousand men, under tho
command of Gen. Samuel Smith, a
Revolutionary veteran, and General
Strlckler, the former as commander-in-chief
of the defonso of tho city and
tho latter an active head of the de
fensive operations.

BANNER
IN BALTIMORE CITY
To aid in thcBo operations of de
fonso was Fort Mclionry, at the
mouth of tho Patapsco river, Just out
sldo of tho city, by no means a formid
able fortress. It wns not bomb-pcoof,
and Its armament, oven for that day,
was woefully Inadequate. On tho op
poslto sldo of tho river earthworks
had been hastily thrown up under tho
direction of General Smith, and behind
theso wcro mounted 100 small cannon.
This was at a placo then known as
"Hampstead Hill," and It still bears
that name, although it 1b included in
what is now Patterson park, ono of
Baltimore's pleasure grounds. Guns
wero also posted nt North Point, some
dlstanco away, and at Lazaretto Point,
directly opposite Fort Mclionry.
To tho hurried erecting of theso for
tifications practically the entiro popu
lation of Baltimore men, women and
children devoted itself as soon as it
fwas learned that tho British purposed
an attack upon tho city.
On September It the dread news
that tho enemy's fleet was off the har
bor was made known. This fleet con
sisted of 50 ships, an extremely pow
erful armada for that day, carrying
9,000 veteran troops.
Troops were landed from tho fleet
on Monday, September 12, and on that
day began tho first flght, known as
"the battlo of North Point." For the
'number of men cngagpd, it was an ex
ceedingly sanguinary affair. It began
by an untoward happening to tho
British and ended with tho Americans
in possession of the field, after a hot
flght of doubtful issue.
Riding at the head of his troops,
General Ross was tho flrBt man to
fall. A fow American skirmishers
posted along the lino of march of tho
British saw their approach. Tradi
tion has it that two young sharpshoot
ers, Daniel Wells and Henry C. Mc
Comas, selected General Ross as their
target in the hope of halting tha Brit
ish advance, and fired at him with un
erring aim. These two boys, respect
ively eighteen and nineteen years old,
wero secreted In a clump of bushes
and Immediately after they had mor
tally wounded tho British commander
they were killed, ns they were certain
to be, by a tremendous volley fired
into their shelter. A monument to
those two lads stands today In Al
squlth square, at the conjunction of
Gay, Monument nnd Alsqulth streets,
in the city of Baltimore, being ono of
the several structures of the kind
which gave it tho name of the "Mon
umental city."
But this disaster only meant a tem
porary check to the British. Under
the direction of Admiral Cockburn
and Colonel Brooke, they continued to
advance, and in tho early afternoon
began tho real battlo of North Point.
The Americans wero short of ammuni
tion, but determinedly poured a fire of
shot, slugs, old -nails and scrap iron
into their foes. Fearful execution was
done during the hour nnd a halt of
this fight's duration, after which Gen
eral Strlckler fell back in good order
to his base, near Hampstead Hill.
The American loss was 150 killed and
tho British GOO.
A heavy rainstorm halted further
fighting for the day, and nt night, leav
ing their campflres burning, the Brit
ish withdrew to the cover of their
ships, defeated in their attempt to
carry tho defending works, and trust
ing to their fleet to reduce Fort Mc
Henry and thus give them an easier
entrance into the city.

under tho intrepid Major George Arm
Istead, awaiting tho inevitable attack.
It came tho next morning.
ill order to nrevent thn nnaamrn nt
the British fleot Into the mouth of
the river and thus render It ablo di
rectly to bombard Baltimore, a line of
huIkB was sunk across the river. This
acted as an effectual barrier and tho
bombardment of tho ships wus from
off tho mouth of tho stream.
Tho British ships had better offen
sive weapons than the fort. Their
cannon carried farther and sent a ver
itable rain of bombs and shot into tho
fort all that day and the following
night.
Major Armlstoad at first replied
sturdily, but ho found that his can
non had not sufficient range to rench
tho enemy's ships. Wisoly, then, ho
hold his flro and awaited events. As
a hostile vessel essayed to creep
closer to the fort the defenders' flro
drove It off. Ono ship was quickly dis
abled and was towed out of rango by
smallor boats. The fort, although In
flicting little damage, was sturdily
holding its own,

it was a great victory, more impor
tant than It would havo beon from its
direct effect, for It heartened Ameri
cans cast down by a succession of )and
defeats.
Still greater, however, was thlB vic
tory, for its horrors wero tho birth
pangs of a song which has sinco
stirred Americans for a hundred years.
During the bombardment of Fort Mc
Henry, Francis Scott Key, lawyer-sol-dler-poet,
wrote "Tho Star-Spangled
Banner," actually, if not ofllclally, tho
national anthem.
After the flght at Bladonsburg, the
British fleet had made its way down
tho Potomac river and up Chesapeake
bay, Landings of troops were fre
quent end theso often, burned homes
on the countryside. During ono of
these forays an aged physician. Dr.
William Beanes of Upper Marlbor
ough, Maryland, had arrested some
British soldiers for wanton destruc
tion of bis property. He was captured
and held a prisoner upon the prison
ship Minden.
Doctor Beanes was a close friend of
tho Key family, and to effect his re
lease Francis Scott Key, under a flag
of truce, made his way to the British
admiral. Ho was courteously received
and accomplished his purpose, but
neither ho nor Doctor Beanes 'was al
lowed to land Immediately, because
Just at this time tho bombardment of
Fort Mclionry had been resolved upon
and It was feared that they might re
veal the British plans.
During the terrible night of Septem
ber 13, in all the horrors of tlio bom
bardment. Key and Doctor Beanos
paced the deck of tho Mtnden, fear
ful at every lull In the firing that the
brave little fort had fallen. The fact
that the fort's guns could not carry to
tho hostile ships and therefore early
ceased firing until tho ships camo
within range, lont apparent corrobora
tion to their fears.
Morning broke, a fair, bright Sep
tember morning, and in the soft haze
tho blushing sun revealed tho great
flag which had been especially made
for the fortress by Mrs. Mary Patters
gill of Baltlmoro in her home at 60 Al
bemarle street, in a house which still
stands, Key'B Joy was boundless.
Tho words of the first stanza of his
glorious song of freedom formed them
selves in his mind. He and his com
panions wero released a few hours af
terward, and in a small boat, on their
way to Baltimore, tho song was writ
ten. It ;was found to flt perfectly to a
then popular English tune. "Anacreon
In Heaven." Tho poem was finished
that night September 14, 1814. Tho
next morning it was printed, and that
evening, September 15, it was sung
with rejoicing in all tho taverns and
public places In Baltimore, for by that
time the British fleot had sailed away
and the city was safe.
The city of Baltimore, which was
saved from an enemy a century ngo,
near which Francis Scott Key was
born In 1770, nnd whero ho died In
1813, honored by a nation, has do
voted a week to colebratlon of its do

Physicians Recommend Castoria
f ASTORIA has mot with, pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharma-
ceutioal societies and mediool authorities, It is used by physioians with
results most gratifying. The extended use of Oastoria is unquestionably tho
result of throe faots: frafThe indisputable evidenoe that it is harmless:
s0oontf---That it not only allays stomaoh pains and quiets tho nerves, but assimi
lates the food : Third -It is an agrooable and perfoot substitute for Oastor Oil.
It is absolutely safe. It doos not oontain any Opium, Morpnine, or other narcotic
and does not Btupory. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drops, Godfrey's
Cordial, etc This is a good deal for a Medioal Journal to Bay. Our duty, how
ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advanoing health. Tho day
for poisoning innocent ohildren through greed or ignoranoe ought to end. To

Letters from Prominent Physicians
addressed to Chas. SI. Fletcher.
Dr. D. Halstcad Scott, of Chicago, Ills., says: "I havo prescribed yosfl
Castoria of ton for Infants during my practice, and find It very satisfactory."
Dr. 'William Bolmont, of Cleveland, Ohio, Bays: "Your Castoria stands
first In its class. In my thirty ycarB of practlco I can say I nevor kava
found anything that so filled tho place."
Dr. J. II. Taft, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I havo used your Castoria and
found It an excellent remedy in my household and private practlco for
many years. Tho formula Is oxcollont"
Dr. It. J. Hamlon, of Detroit, Mich., Bays: "I prescribe your Castoria
ox tonal voly, as I havo never found anything to equal it for children's
troubles. I am awaro that there aro imitations In tho field, but I always
Boo that my patients got Flotcher's."
Dr. "Win. J MoCrann, of Omaha, Nob., soys: "As tho father of thirteen '
children I certainly know something about your great modiclno, and aside
from my own family experlonco I have in my years of practlco found Cos
torla a popular and efficlont remedy in almost every home."
Dr. J. II. Clauson, of Philadelphia, Fa., says: "Tho namo that your Cos
torla has mado for itself in tho tons of thousands of homes blcssod by tha

belioro It an excellent remedy."
Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., Bays: "Physicians generally do not
prescribo proprietary preparations, but in the cose of Castoria my export
onco, liko that of many other physicians, has taught mo to mako an ex

Signature of
Cure for Blindness.
In certain forms of blindness caused
by opacity ot tho cornea it has been
discovered that tho beet form ot treat
ment is a tatoolng process. For this
operation ordinary India Ink is used,
the tatoolng being done with a hypo
dermic noedle.
Tho cornea is injected with tho Ink
by repeated punctures, so that when
tho operation Is completed tho cornea
Is apparently completely blackened.
But during the process of absorption
of tho Ink particles that follows, tho
original opacity is also absorbed, tho
corueii becomes clear and sVslit is re
stored. Few men are willing to take good
advice if it is free; also they hale to
pay for it.
