Increased Pensions.
THE BILL FOR TIE oNE.ARMED AND ONE
LEGGED SOLDIERS PASSED.


The Senate spent most of the day
and a good portion OF the night last
week. Wednesday, on the bill to in
crease the pensions of one-armed and
one-legged soldiers. Mr. Mitchell
said that when the bill passed the
House it was stated that the increase
would amount to Sl,500,000. The
Senate committee estimated it at over
S5O0,OO0 more. A motion to indef-
nitely postpone was voted down, 10 TO
"a. All sorts of speeches were made
and all sorts of amendments were
voted down and finally substitute
offered by Mr.. Platt was adopted.
The final vote on the passage of the
bill was 27 TO II.
The bill as passed is in the following
language "That from and after the
passage of this act all persons on the
pension roll, and all persons hereafter
granted pension, who while in the
military or naval service of the United
States and in the line of duty shall
have lost one hand or one foot, or been
totally or permanently disabled in the
same or otherwise so disabled as to
render their incapacity to perform
manual labor equivalent to the loss of
a hand or foot, shall receive a pen
sion of twenty four dollars per month
that all persons now on the pension
roll and all persons hereafter granted
a pension who in like manner shall
have lost either an arm at or above the
elbow, or leg at or above the knee,
or shall have been otherwi1e so dis
abled as to be incapacitated for per-
forming any manual labor, but not SO
much as to require regular personal
aid and attendance, shall receive pen
sioa Of $50 per month; provided that
nothing contained in this act shall be
construed to repeal section 4,699 of
the revised statutes of the United
States or to change the rate of SlS per
month therein mentioned to be proper
tionately divided for any degree of
disability established for which section
4,695 makes no provision"

The grand jury in the case of the
Newhall House disaster at Milwaukee
has brought in final report. They
find that the hotel was constructed in
as substantial n manner as such build
ings usually are; there was scarcely a
hotel in the country as easy of egress
as the Newhall that the owners had
done all that was reasonable for pro.
lection from and escape in case of ac
cideut; that Landlord Antisdel was
extremely solicitous for the welfare
and safety of guests, but that he did
not employ sufficient men or means to
alarm the guests, but they say in ex.
tenuation that he adopted the same
precautions used in other hotels of like
size; that he was at fault in not in,
structing his help what to do in cast
OF fire aud not giving sufficient atten
lion to the bar room after knowing III,
habits of the tenants that of all tn,
help of the hotel Linehau, the engi
neer alone made proper exertion {,

for the manner in which the Morgue i
kept and find the laws regulating
modes of egress from buildings de
fectiye.

Uses of Glucose.

Glucose is coming largely into use
in many ways. Millions of pounds of
it are made every month 1t is used
mostly as an adultcrant in the manu-.
facture of table syrups, and in alulter-
ating the dark, moist sugars used
largely by the poor, Its next largest
use is in the manufacture Of candies.
All soft candies, wakes, taihes, cara
mels, chocolates, etc, are made of
glucose. CAildren, are, therefore,
large consumers of this substance the
honey bees also are fond of it, and will
carry it away by the ton if it is placed
within their reach. The honey made
from this is no better than the pure
glucose, as it is slowed away IN cells
without change. Human ingenuity,
it is stated, has reached the point of
making honey a, sorting it in the
comb without the Intervention of the
bee. BY appropriate machinery a
nice looking comb is made out of par
afline, and after the cells are filled with
glucose syrup, this fictitious 'honey'
is warranted true white clover honey
from Vermont.

SAw-MILL ITEMs.--With the grinding sea.
son begins the dull torn for our saw-lnills,
the scarcity of laborers, the want of orders
and often the lack of timber virtually
forcing the mills to close. The Braud saw
mill, after doing a good business, was the
first to :" lay up" There is still some lum-
Der on the yard and a small number of
trees in boom. at the Picayune mill
Messrs. Esneaut &:Sons have done exceed
ingly we'll, pushing their small machinery
up to its full capacity. Although, like the
other mills, they have partly laid up, they
manage now and then to get a half crew
and run the mill SO as to ill pressing orders
They have considerable lumber on the
yard and some trees in boom. At the L.
Blanc mill large business has been done,
Notwithstanding several accidents, necessi-
tating repairs that consumed two entire
months of the busiest season. Owing to
the great demand for lumber the mill,
which is ono Of the largest and most COM
piete, has been run to its full capacity
There are about 100000 feet of lumber On
the yard and 200 trees in boom to begin
the next season. The want of laborers has
also forced Mr.. Leblanc to partially close
his mill, but in the meantime he has nc,
been idle. An iron track lis being laid
throughout the lumber yard, while the
yard proper is being divided into framed
compartments where the lumber will be
sent directly from the mill and assorted
according to quality and dimensions. The
entire machinery has been overhauled, re-
fitted and repacked, and preparations are
being made to put up an extra engine
which will be necessary to run the new
machinery which Mr.. Leblanc is about
adding to his mill. These improvements
will consist of a large three-saw gang
edger, swing saw, an improved siding
and re-sawing machine, one of Perkins &
Co.'s latest improved shingle makers and
Perkins o. K. saw GUNNER. These addi-
tions will moro than double the capacity of
the mill, largely increase ills business and
enable it to do better work at the same time.
With his usual energy and decided push
Mr.. Leblanc will soon have his enterprise
under full headway again.

1t is said that Governor Ordway is to

in day or two against the adoption OF

people. It may be that Ordway does
not contemplate visiting Tyndail, but

the benefit of railroads. The position
