Court-Martialed of Signal Service Men.


WASHINGTON, Oct 2S.-About half of the class
of signal service men who are undergoing a
course OF instruction at Ft Myer, to be COM
pleted in January are being tried by court-mar-
tial on charge Of insubordination. The cir
cumstances are as follows: The men of the class
felt that they were being unjustly and harshly
treated by their instructor, Lieut. Frank Green, of
the signal service and when he added to this gross
profanity, indiscriminately calling them names
not to be repeated. they resolved to make an
effort for relief With this view, a meeting of
the class was held, which resulted in petition
to the Chief Signal Officer. setting forth their
grievance and appealing for relief The petition
answered by an order for the court martial
ing of all the men who had signed the petition,
on the ground of insubordination General
Hazen said, tonight that the men were being
court-martiaed, not for expressing their griev-
ances, but for holding a meeting and com
bining for that purpose, which he said
was almost equal to mutiny. Lieutenant
Green has been reprimanded by General

Important Ruling to Lands and Pensions
for Soldiers of 1912.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28-In section 3, of an act
OF Congress. approved March 9th, 1873 it is ''pro
vided that when any person has been granted
land warrant under any act of Congress for and
on account of service in the war of 1872, such
grant shall be prima facie evidence of his service
and honorable discharge, so as to entitle him, if
living or his widow, if he be dead, to pension
under this act; but such evidence shall not be
conclusive, and may be rebutted by evidence that
such land warrant was improperly granted In
the case of widow of soldier of the war Of
1912, whose husband during his lifetime, was
granted both land warrant and a pension,
Commissioner Black has recently decided that it
would be great hardship to require, after
the lapse of 80 many years, new
evidence to re-establsh the fact, char
acter, and period of service which
had previously been determined by competent
authority, the prima facie provided TOR by
the statute having thus been supplemented and
strengthened, and hence the widows claim for
pension should have been allowed and no at
tempt made to rebut the evidence upon which
her husbands claim for bounty, land and PEN
sion had been granted In other cases, however
in which no pension had been allowed the sol
der, and when only the prima facie cases made
by the law exist, the matter of pension never
having been adjudicated, the Commissioner held
that these were cases of first impression so far
as claims for pension concerned, and as it
appears that the husbands of the claimants were
not In the service for fourteen days during the
war Of 1917, and the preDonderance of evidence
being that they were not in any engagement in
that war, the prima facie case created by the
statute is overcome. and the applications for
pensions in those cases will be rejected.

a Form of Popular Credencs That has Always
Prevailed.
From the Gcntleman's Magazine.
Epidemos, which were once regarded as
supernatural yisitstions, are now known by
science to depend upon natural causes and TO
be amenable TO treatment This especially is
the case with cholera, which was attributed
to divine displeasure, and, i'm accordance
with the theological theory of disease, was
supposed to be staid by miraculous interpo-
sltion. But science has long since unmistaka-
bly, proved that cholera is one of the diseases
which attack with the greatest effect those
classes of a community who "neglect their
persons and live in dirty, ill-drained or ill
ventilated dwellings," And as with chol-
era, so with other diseases; they mostly
spring from natural causes, concerning
which there was formerly so much mis-
conception. But, on the other hand, Ii IL no
matter of surprise that when delusions of
this kind were widely circulated and cred
tied, faith healing should be resorted to
as the most consistent means of escaping
the effects of disease This probably. also
