THE NATIONAL FLAG- !‘he displaying of a “Union J aok" on a small scale in Ottawa has caused some comment in the very limited circle who are acquaian with flag-ology, as it has fancifuliy been termed, says the Free Prose of that city in discussing, the matter. The conditionsgoverniag the use of the “Union Jack” are precisely down in the King’s Regulations, and they are too long to quote in full. But it is curious to note that doubt as to its use and also as to what is exactly the nation- al flag of Britain seems to exist in the very heal-tot the Empire itself, and the London Times is now ma. throes .1. controversy on the subject. The die- cnnoion arose out of an incident which occurred at the recent great Naval Review after the King's coronation. liters lay'at anchor daring th'e ceremonies the Fond— royaut. an old, line at battleship of- eminent renown. Not, however, the famous vessel otthat name which serves no Nelson’s flagship, and on which the Neapolitan Prince Caraocioll was tried by court martial previous to his execution on a Neapolitan frigate. This ship, it will be remembered, which was closely associ- ated with the painful events which mai- red the reputation of the“mighty seamen" in his relations with Lady Hamilton was wrecked near Liverpool not long ago and bad to be broken up. The present Fcudrcyart is now in private hands, and on the day of the review the owner, who uses it as a. museum, dis- played the Union Jack, but was quickly, ordered to take it in,asit was contrary to the King‘s Regulations for a. ship which did not belong to the navy to fly that particular flag. The discussion which has been going on for soversl weeks seems to show that England has no one national flag for all occasionr, although the Jack appears in all of the ensigns. At sea, however, the red ensign is used by merchant ships, the white ensign by men-of-war and the blue ensign by naval reserve ships, but the Union Jack is restricted to the jackstaxo! men- of-war. But the incident has provoked a. moot. voluminous correspondence which scams to indicate that much doubt exists as to what the national flag really is. Lord Hawkesbnry, a naval oflcer, writes to assert that the Union Jack is “no more the national flag than the Ger-nan Jack or those of Sweden and Norway. The rod ensign is, of course, the national, flag, and is recognized as such the world over.” A “R. N. captain” waxes very wroth over this, and denim that the red ensign is anything more thana mrrzau~ tile flag. And so the controversy pro-- greases. In Canada the function of the red and blue cnsigns charged with tbs clumsy sc-oalled heraldic combinatior, seems to be correctly understood, and subject to improvement, fairly rflaecta the pesition and sentiment of be people of the Dominion. -__.___ An exchange saysz- Ere long we shall be reading in the marriage notices; The groom’s gift tothe bride was a beautiful necklace of real anthracite, to which was attached a magnificent gold prudent. in- laid with beech, maple and other precious woods.” “Events” in auswtring the .qneation "When is man old" says—Coming to Can- ada Sir Wilfrid Laurier has just passed the 60 mark.
