Heroine of ( lip FlnK Inclilcnt nt
Ponce Tel In llic Story.
Miss Carmen d' JVnlonsantl , daughter of
a native Porlo Illcan , but a naturalized
( American citizen , Is visiting frlcnda nt
Brooklyn , N. Y. , where eight of her nineteen -
teen years have been passed. To this young
woman belongs the distinction of having
provided the first American nag raised over
a municipal building In Porto Klco after
the Investment of the Island by United
States troops. The story of the Incident
Bho related as follows : "Thero were but
thrco American families living In Pence nt
the outbreak of the- war with Spain and
you may readily believe that their situation
at that tlmo was anything but agreeable.
That of our family was particularly pre
If J carious , for the reason that It was known
to the Spanish authorities that wo were
Intensely American In our sympathies nnd
that for a long tlmo wo had been In fre
quent communication with our friends In
the states. During the- early days of the
war wo were the objects of suspicion nnd
hatred on the part of the Spanish officials
and wcro madp to feel uncomfortable and
at times Insecure.
"Tho arrival off the southern coast of the
advance ships of the American fleet was
the cause of much cxcltmont' among the
Spaniards , especially these holding office
GAY LITTLE SBRGE SUIT.
under the crown. But the climax ot the ex
citement was not reached until It was re
ported that war ships convoying American
troops were approaching the harbor of
Ponco. It was about that tlmo that niy
mother and I closed our bouse In the city
and hastily departed to take refuge in the
homo of my uncle a short distance Inland.
Wo had .barely reached our destination
when word came to us that our house In
Pence had bwm set on flro and destroyed ,
together 'with Its contents , and that the
eame futo had befallen the homes of the
two other ( American families resident there.
Wo afterwards learned from friends In the
city that no serious effort had been made
to extinguish the Ore at our place and that
certain Spanish officers had gone so far as
to Intimidate the firemen by reminding
them that aa. the house belonged to a d d
Yankee It were bettor to let It burn.
"Tho flag ? Oh , yes , I was about to tell
you. Among my personal effects was an
American flag , made of silk , about five feet
long and perhaps three and a half feet wide.
This flag I had brought to Porto Rico from
Brooklyn , after leaving school , and I assure
you I was very proud of It. It had been
used as a decoration In one ot the rooms
of our homo in Pence and quite a number
of persons , Including several Spanish offi
cers , had seen and admired It.
"Of course when it became necessary to
flee from Ponce , wo wcro obliged to decide
quickly what articles to take with us and
my flret thought was of the flag. To carry
it openly was out of the question , and to
attempt to conceal It eeemed almost as
hazardous. But a happy thought came to ,
me. Why not sow a flag to the lining ot
ray petticoat ? And that Is precisely what
I did.
We reached my uncle's house in eafety.
There wo remained quietly and without
special incident until news came of the
landing of American troops and of tha , I
withdrawal ot the Spaniards , almost with I
out the firing of a shot. Theu itwas thatI 1
without a moment's hesitation , I cut loose
thd flag , and , having made it fast to nn 1m- ,
prevised staff , sot out with others of the' '
family for Ponce. Wo had gone 'but a little
way when wo mot with a flying column of
American soldiers who haul ibeon sent out
to reconnoltor and to assure the country
people ot the good Intentions of the Amer
icans. At first eight of the coldlers , who
proved to be detachments of Ker-tucky and
Wisconsin regiments , I unfurled the flag
and waved it frantically. The scene that
followed was so indlscrlbably turJUIng that
I never shallforgot it. Officers flocked
about me , asking all manner of questions ,
and the men In the ranks cheered nnd sans ,
the flag was snatched from my grasp by AH
enthusiastic soldier and passed down th
line from one to another ; scores ot the sim
ple peasant folk came out ot the bush to
see what nil the. nolso wae about , and be
came as excited , yet an Joyful , as the rest
of ua. They cried repeatedly : "Viva los
Americano * ! " It was certainly a most ex
citing moment
"The commanding officer confirmed all the
good news we had heard back In the moun
tains , nnd urged mo to hasten on to the
city , offering tno an mcort , nnd Informing
mo that the flag lieutenant was preparing
to ralso the colors over the public bulfdlngs ,
and that ho might too glad to have the use
of my flag. This turned out to bo the case.
The lieutenant had brought ashore a num
ber of flags , 'but all ot them had been dis
posed of before ho had arrived at the city
hall. Ho greeted mo cordially , nnd the In
stant ho espied my flag , exclaimed : 'Where
did you get that fine flag ? Do you know
It's Just what wo have been searching for , in
1 vain. Please lot mo have it to raise over
the city hall. '
"A few minutes later the flag I had
brought from Brooklyn was floating In the
breczo from a talt staff that for years and
years had known only the red and yellow
colors of Castile. There was a tremendous
crowd in the street , made up of American
soldiers and townspeople , nnd the cheering
which greeted the hoisting ot my little flag
was tumultuous. The soldiers formally sa
luted It , and the regimental band played
'Tho Star-Spangled Banner. ' And -perhaps
you recall the Incident the Alcalde made
an old-fashioned Fourth of July speech
which aroused great enthusiasm , and which
really laid the foundation for the good feelIng -
Ing toward America and Americans which
has prevailed in Pence from that day to
this. "
"And what finally became of the flag ? " I
asked.
"That reminds me , " replied Miss d'An-
tonsantl , "that , although my flag answered
the temporary purpose for which It was In
tended , it really was ludicrous to BOO It
snapping in the breeze nt so great a height ;
It looked so tiny and Insignificant , seeming
not larger than a 'bandanna ' handkerchief.
But the flag was kept flying for several days ,
or until a forger one was brought ashore
and put in its place. I received a number
ot offers for the flag , but money would not
tempt mo to part with it. I have had it ap
propriately inscribed and framed , and hope
to keep it as long as I live. "
DESKS FOR WOMEN.
Nevr DcftlKim vrltlt Pretty Fittings to
DellKlit the Eye.
Desks for women's rooms and family sit
ting rooms arc superseded lor the time lu
popular fancy by the low writing table ,
small enough to be moved about In accord
ance with the light and the writer's con
venience. Stout , all-over blotters ot suit
able size and handsomely mounted in old
French brocade , edged with gilt gimp or with
silk and worsted tapestry are used as porta
ble tops , and all the usual desk appliances
are fitted up to match. The paper and en
velope holder , portfolio , memorandum book ,
pen rack , stamp and pencil case and small ,
under-lock-and-koy casket , all framed in
dividually in the Ivory tinted stuff outlined
In gilt , form an especially planned outfit
that looks more feminine than the regulation
elther-sex desk and has a Marie Antoinette
suggestion that accords well with light
tinted curtains and berlbboned summer-day
flummeries.
A generous-sized blotter and kindred
equipments so mounted and all ready for
packing away and taking to the country
costs $25. The patterns of tapestry used are
In small figures or flowers of Louis XVI
design , subdued rose color , shades of ochre ,
ecru and a very sparse Inlet-sprinkling of
palo blues , chocolate browns and tea colors.
For very 'costly bindings real cloth of gold
is used , and for people with aesthetic lean
ings tbo old linen taffetas , admirable set
tings for sllver'-loppcd hand blotter or seal
ing wax holder. No woman's writing outfit
is regarded as complete without a photo
graph holder or one ot these 4xo-lnch
triplex easel frames made to hold three or
more likenesses. A man may bo supposed
successfully to conduct correspondence
] without the counterfeit Image of his near
est or dearest friend looking at him in the
act , but every woman is believed to need
such Inspiration , and these new tapestry
desk fittings provide amply for It.
Certain householders able.to stratify their
liking for something new In library fittings
have had the whole top of their library cen
ter table covered with a mammoth white
blotter , bordered iheavlly in itbe rare , old
world tapestry , and the effect Is unique and
tasteful :
Another novelty in summer house decora
tion Is to have a group of celebrated English
and French beauties mounted dn medallion-
shaped frames of old linen taffeta. The
frames are padded and contrived in a dainty
oval that sets off the old print likeness and
patterns suitable to the subject are chosen.
Frames ot this sort have a value all their
own and are admirably suited to a bed
chamber fitted up with French chintz dra
peries or furnished in the light willow and
bamboo cane furniture BO popular for coun
try 'houses. They are rare and ornate
enough , however , to chime In even with
choice drawing room furniture , and , owing
to the variety of the patterns and the gold
and silver threads emuloyed In the texture ,
are < by no means Inexpensive. The fashion

A MOTIIUH'S mJSPKnATIJ COUHAOB ,
Stopped the Fnnt Mnll tlmt Site
Sec Her UrliiR Chilli.
Paralleling the love of a ( athcr who lost
bis life In St. Louts while saving his Infant
eon from dp.alh bjr burning Is the devotion
of n mother In Chicago , who. In order to bent
nt the bcdsldo of her dying child , defied the
rcgulatlono of a powerful rallrond corpora
tion nnd risked her own existence to achieve
her tender mission. U was no llttlo thing
accomplished by Mre. Nathan Allen. She
did what the railroad officials , In cold
blood , had refused to have done for her , nnd
she did that which her grlof-crnzcd husband
had given up as nn Impossibility. She
flagged nnd stepped the flying Green Uny
express , which runs out of Chicago on the
Chicago & Northwestern road.
So long na the Green Boy express has
been in service It has never been flagged before -
fore , relates the St. Louis Hopubllc. Nor had
there over been ns flagrant and as successful
n violation of the rigid rules of the railroad
as that forced upon the engineer by this
agonized nnd desperate woman. Her act
wns heroic.
Station Agent Lalng of the Northwestern
road nt Evnnston , a suburb of Chicago , had
been appealed to by a gentleman nnd Indy
to fins the express , which pncscs Evanston
rr bout 3 o'clock In tbo nftcinoon. Ho hnd
noticed them previously walking anxiously
away without the gentle kiss and solacing
caress of either parent. Too deep In his
eorrow even to speak uords of comfort to
his wlto or to notice her actions , Mr. Allen
stood against the wall ot the depot with
hla head sunk upon his breast. Presently
ho was aroused by the raucus scream of a
locomotive and the jangling of the warning
bell on the platform. He turned to speak to
his wife , but sbo was not at his side , Ho
looked nt the north end of the long pint-
form , In the great fear which overcame
him at what ho beheld ho forgot ( or the
moment the frail llttlo sufferer at home.
Standing In the path ot the thundering
engine , which grew larger nnd blacker nnd
more- cruel at each passing second , was Mrs ,
Allen.
She stood rrcct and motionless. The train
was bounding over the rails , Its Increasing
slzo dwarfing the figure before It , nnd the
pounding of Its cylinders becoming more
and more deafening. It seemed as If the
woman must bo struck and ( thrown to her
death. Not ono move did fho make to step
out of the way. Suddenly she lifted into the
nlr the wrap which she had carried on her
nrm. It was a thick cape , such ns are al-
TVaya In demand In the lake Jt.'glons during
the summer. It was lined Ith red. She
turned Its bright sldo outward deftly and
swung It around her head again and again.
Allen turned his face In horror. There
came a crunching nnd rapping of the wheels ,
the hiding of the air brake and the creaking
of heavy timbers suddenly strained to thrlr
limit. Ho dared to look again. Ho saw the
train nt A standstill nnd his wife swoon Into
the sirms of a man with n blue Jacket. The

choosing colors and styles. A ynse full of
differently-scented flowers can never omit a
v.-bolly satisfying result. It Is truly a caeo
of the survival of the fittest , and the
stronger scent , while being affected by all
the others present , and therefore losing Its
purity , will in the end predominate. Imag
ine , on the other side , the sweet white violet ,
whose odor is so faint and elusive as to bo
almost imperceptible , being placed with
flowers of a stronger fragrance. As ( ar ns
any gratification to the human sense is
concerned nature might as well not have
endowed It with this charm. The only way
to enjoy the llttlo flower Is to gather a largo
bunch and then to keep them separate from
all others.
As a general rule it is not well to place
more than two scented flowers together , and
even then they should be selected with care.
Ot these mignonette and sweat pea may be
mentioned ns combining extremely well.
The portume they emit Is no stronger than
that of the Individual blossom , but It Is
sweeter. In ( act , when thceo two flowers
are grouped proportionately together one Is
reminded on inhaling them of the fragrant
peach.
Heliotrope and lemon verbena ( orm an
other delightful combination with an ele
ment of refreshment for darkened summer
rooms. A ( ow bouquets of these two flowers -
ors , Instead of making the atmosphere
heavier , will seem to olear away some ot Us
sultriness. The lemon verbena should be
added Judiciously llttlo over the right
amount and Ha odor soon destroys that ot
the heliotrope.
Hardly anything more Jovely can be
imagined for a bouquet than the opening
buds of the blush rose And a tew tender
shoots ot honeysuckle. The delicate fra
grance of the rose seems to temper and
render even more luscious the honeysuckle's
stronger scent.
Large , bcavlly-scontcd flowers should be
used in moderation. Little can be done in
the way of combinations to render their
odors lees oppressive. It is always best to
keep them separate and In a place through
which a current of nlr passes.
It seems to be the mission of geranium
leaves to lend their pungent , spicy odor to
flowers that nro themselves without fra
grance , and therefore they cannot be prized
too highly. At this season of tbo year they
go especially well nn a border around the
brilliantly-colored but unfortunately ocent-
less phloxes.
ETHICS FOIl TVI'KWHITISH CIIILS.
IlcllglonN Join-mil Given Some Tip * on
the Gentle ; Art of I.ylnur.
The Ne'w York Christian Advocate , the
eastern organ of tbo Methodist Episcopal
church , has created a oensatlon'fa religious
circles there by adrlco U recently gave to an
Inquirer. "Suppose , " wrote the applicant
( or Information , "that a young woman em
ployed as a stenographer has to write what
she knows to bo a flat contradiction ot truth ,
what she knows is meant to deceive and the
object of the deception is to take pecuniary
advantage of others. Also that sometimes
pro fane language and language of ques
tionable character on other moral grounds
is dictated , should she write it or modestly
decline to do so ? "
To this query the Advocate makes answer :
"Wo know an instance of a young woman
who declined to write profane language and
lost her oltuatlon In consequence. We
highly approve her courso. She may be a
'machine ' in a certain sense , out K she pro
fesses to be a Christian or a modest woman
she ought not to write anything which no
one having any respect for Christianity or
modesty -would utter in the presence of a
modest woman. But on the question of flat
contradictions of truth in the -
thoway of busi
ness statements , it Is quite possible that a
stenographer may be altogether too eonsl-
tlve. How docs she know what view her
employer may .take of what seems to be a
flat contradiction of truth ? Is he to ex-
Plata to her all elements involved In every
transaction in which profit and loss are con
cerned. With regard to hl3 business deal
ings she Is but , a machine and her ears are
not polluted by statements of ( act or other
wise. Her mind should be sufficiently under
control not to reason about anything that he
dictates except to direct bla attention to ver
bal or other mistakes In composition. But
no stenographer , male or female , should
write things , which , pawing through their
eara Into their minds , and to the machine
through their fingers , could not but defile.
The stenographer need not make an Issue.
K a roan happens to use profane language
lit her furoUh the copy without the pro-
up nnd down the asphalt paved platform of
the llttlo stone depot. They were In great
distress , evidently , for the lady's eyes were
swollen and red and the tears were being
kept back only by great effort. The man' *
( ace was firmly set with an expression ot
hopelees sorrow. As the moment ( or the
arrival of the train approached they became
mo.ro and moro impatient , and finally asked
the statlonmanter K the train waa on time.
"That train is . .alwayson time , " replied
the official , "It never loses.a minute and
makes' only .a ( ew stops. It does not slack
up even going through Evanston. "
All iho known Instruments and methodi
of torture could not have 'brought to the
faces of the suffering man and woman ex
pression of more unutterable despair. The
i woman groaned In subdued tones of heart
breaking grief. The man stood as though
one stunned. Recovering himself , ho man
aged to say ; hoarsely :
"We are Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Allen of
Kencsha , Wls. Wo have just received a
telegram that our child Is dying at home.
We must get there before the little cne
passes away. Will you not flag this train ? "
The elation agent answered that flagging
CDHESS FOR. A QIAID AT SCHOOL ,
the train was out of the question , To do
eo would not only endanger his position ,
I but It would bo of no avail. Ho said that
I other attempts ihad been made to flag the
train , but no attention -was paid to them.
The approach to Evanston was on a steep
up-grade and the stoppage of tbo train
would entail a delay of several minutes ,
I which , to a carrier of the United States
malls , would moan the loss of thousands of
dollars on account of connections missed
In the northwest. When Mrs. Allen heard
these word * she wept and wrung her' hands
and Mr. Alien Implored that an attempt
be made. At length be prevailed upon
Lalng to wire Division Superintendent Law-
Eon In Chicago for permission to order the
heavy mall train stopped. It was fast
neartag the time for the train to vorae in
sight of the station. Laing touched the
wire leading directly Into the superintend
ent's private office , twelve mllea
Away , and as rapidly as he over
sent a message before explained the
situation. As the key -clicked back
tbo answer without a. second's delay ,
Lalng called out the words to the pitiable
man and woro'an , Tihe message was :
"Much as we would llke , to accommodate ,
It will cause too heavy a loss to the road.
It 4s absolutely Impossible to consider flag
ging the 3 o'clock fast mall at Evanston. "
Mr. and Mrs , Allen walked silently out
of the telegraph office to the platform. The
next train to pass Evanaton for Kenosha
was not due for ( our hours later. Ere that
time their child would probably have paeaed
of the unexpected halt , alighted from the
coaches and hastened ahead to the engine.
'Allen dragged himself to the crowd and tried
to explain , but no attention was paid to htm.
Sympathetic \\ctnen from among the pas
sengers -who had alighted with the others
soon revived Mrs. Allen. Her first words
were addressed to the big engineer : "My
child is dying in Kenosha. I must get aboard
this train , " she said.
The iblg engineer answered : "Well , get
aboard. You've stopped 013 now , all right.
But I guess I can crowd on enough steam to
' , make up Tor lest time. "
The passengers aided 'Mrs. ' Allen to a
coach and saw'that she was comfortably
settled. Then 'the big engineer took a peek
under the body of his engine , and , calling to
Ms fireman to pllo on coal , jumped into his
cab and pulled the lever. The Green Bay
express leaped out of Evanston foster than
ever It went before.

Frill * of FiiHlilon.
New black velvet Jackets have white satin
vests and revere embroidered in jet and
chcnlllo or jet alone.
The fashion ot making the sleeves of
bodices , polonaises and fancy jackets of two
contrasting fabrics is increasing.
From present appearances the styles In
millinery will bo qulto as varied , with aa
great u scope for personal cbolco , as they
have been for several seasons past. No
particular mode will bo absolute.
There are countless pretty and service
able styles in capes and coats ( or the autumn -
tumn and winter seasons , but among the
models for very elegant cold-weather uses
will be seen the most novel and extravagant
disposal of seal , sable , otter , chinchilla and
other costly furs , combined with nuperb
flounces ot guipure , point do Yenlse , Honl-
ton , Flemish and other rare laceu.
Among the elegances of the dress cos
tumes ( or the autumn and winter are Louis
XIV. waistcoats and rcvcrs of white or
cream satin , covered with Persian embroid
eries and bordered with a narrow line ot
seal , otter , ermine' , chenille ruchlng or
pl'alted lace. Any woman who knows how to
embroider can make for herself these ele
gant and effective decorations at very lit
tle cost.
Among the stylish and normal bead cov
erings are pretty French toques , which for
a moment before the demand for more
elaborate styles are quite a specialty. Some
of these are not millinery in tbo strict
sense of the word , for they are toques
matching the tailor costume , formed ot
tweed , English cheviot serge , cravenette ,
and many kinds of cloth , the fabric being
arranged In ( olds by way of trimming , with
only a chou of velvet ; or a handsome buckle
as a finish. Neither flow era , fiathfm no
laces are employed on traveling and ehop-
ping models , but simply ( olds and loops ot
handsome velvet or satin ribbon , with en
added buckle or a stylish pin or two thrust
it right angle * through the ribbon loop * ,
