IMPORTANT DECISION.
0uartermaster's Claims from InSur-
rectionary States,


n. Approp,IatIan for Their Pa,moat.
The auartermastcr general transmitted to
Comptroller Brolhead for his decision,
claim from a pardoncd rebel for Wlltary
supplies furnished 10 1890.
Il was claimed by the applicant that by
recent decisions OF the Supreme Court par.
don or amnesty rrinstAtes q rebel claimant In
his right IN recover for property forfeited TO
or confscated by the United States Govern
ment; that such nm act Of pardon Is not merely
prospective-not only restoring man per-
soually TO future credit, but returning to him
or reimbursing him for goods, effects or credits
heretofore forfeited or conascated as tue
property Ot public enemy.
The Comptroller was Of opinion that such
was not fair deduction from the decisions
OF the Supreme Court, and remarked that
while deferrlng always to the judgment Of
that great tribunal he III ugbt there were two
existing grounds on which claims OF THIS
character must at present be rejected by ac-
counting and disbursing officers. The first Is
the general principle that money or credits
which have rev, rted to the United States
Treasury by force Of law, International, mar.
tial or statute, cannot be Withdrawn except
" Wv y" " r.. ,,t,,,,t,,ai

The Inventor and Proprietor OF the Onee
Famous RED Jacket Bltters" ERlIsts a. q
Private Soldier In the Ualted States Array
tFrom the OhicsEa Tribune, jane ISL
From 1883 10 1887 the name OF Bennett
Ptters was very well known In this city. IL
was connected with the Red Jacket bltteri,
which were then popular beverage, adyer-
llsea largely In the papers, and posted ON
ienues aud blank walls. Pieters himself was
popular man among hls set; he kept good
saddle aud carriage hOrsesi had rooms at the
sherman house gave excellent suppers,
where the guests were not called on tu drink
his bitters, but were regaled with champagne,
which was perhaps 10 better, but was GER
talnly much more expensive, and did not
openly offend any OF the proprletles. His
Income was large one, but he spent Ii
| easily, and did not, like q good Chlcagoan,
put 1t In real estate. lie failed TO lay up
| treasures In this orthodox quarter, and hence
when calamity came upon him he had moth
Ing TO fall back upon. In 1867 some lndlvld-
nal, thinking that he also might make little
by going Into the bitter business, began the
manufacture Of the Red Cloud bltters. Pie
tiers resented this as an infringement OF his
Ilghts, and brought suit 10 have his rival en-
Joined.
The matter was tried 10 the United States
Court. An expert chemist analysed PIetersl
productions, and found they consisted OF poor
Whlhky, Favored with tRnsy, dog-iennel, Jim
HOn weed or some other substance which Dos
sesscd no special medicinal virtues. Ultl-
mAtely the Court decided that his rights had
not been invaded, and that Red Cloud and
Red Jacket might have separately and indie
pendently originated bltters. This hurt Pie
ters, but not half as much as the analysis.
People had supposed that his bltters owed
their rare virtues 20 simples unknown 10 the
white man, gathered at midnight In prlmeval
forests by grim Indian chlefs, or dnsky In-
dian girls, dark but comely, like the tents Of
Kedar or the curtains OF King solomon, the
secret having been specially communicated
20 PieteTs under circumstances OF 20 private
a nature that they never became public.
When the Illusion was dlspelled the sale Of
the Red jacket stopped and Peters Income
diminished. The less money he had, the
more be drank. He got involved In trouble
with his partner, and finally, Ia 1864, after
the defeat Of Gen. Solomon and hia departure
for Washington Territory, be accompanied
him, along with O'Brien, Hayden, Church,
etc. He returned from there few months
ago, and, after lettering around the city do
Ing nothing, last Monday he enlisted as
cavalry recruit In the regular army, and EN-
6raeed thls desperate resort Of u reduced gen

Home Reading.

One OF the pleasant and noble du-
ties of the head of the family is to
furnish its members with good read
ing. In times which are past it was
considered enough to clothe and
feed and shelter a family. This was
the sum of paternal duty. But lat
terlY it has been found out that
wives and children have minds, so
that it becomes a necessity to edu-
cate the children and furnish read
ing for the whole household. It
has been found out that the mind
wants food as well rs the body, and
that it wants to be sheltered from
the pittiless storms of error and vice
by the guarding and friendly roof OF
intelligence and virtue. An ignor.
ant family in our day is an antiquat-
ed institution. ksmells of the mus
ty past. 1t is a dark spot which
the light of the modern sun ofinteli-
gence has not reached. Let good
reading go into home, and the very
atmosphere of that home gradually
but surely changes. The boy be-
gins to grow ambitious, to talk about
men, places, principles, books, the
past and the future. The girls be-
gin to feel a new life opening before
them, in knowledge, duty and love.
They see new fields of usefulness and
pleasure. And so the family chang
es, and out of this number go Homer
able members of society. Let the
torch of intelligence be lit in every
household. Let the old and young
vie with each other in introducing
new and useful topics of inyestiga-
ton, and in cherishing q love OF
reading, study and improvement.
