Congress.


Congress did not pass the Mexican
pension bill, or any other important pen
sion measure. There were measures,
like the one increasing widows and de-
pendent relatives pensions from IS to
$12 month, that passed each house in
separate bills, but failed to become a
law, as the same bill did not pass both
houses. The congress that adjourned
last week considered more bills relating
to pension and other allowances to SOL
diers than any prior congress for years,
without really doing anything for the
soldier. 1t spent much time in con-
sidering bills that had merit and bills
without merit. The committee on
pensions reported favorably several inn
portant bills, which made the soldiers
expect some legislation favorable to
their interests. Such bills do not 90
over to a new congress, and can only be
brought before the next congress by
the introduction of new bills.

Pensions Granted.

To o. o. Davis, Mortified, guardian
of child of Henry G. Cady, $40 month
and S160arrears; John Marrisett, More
town, an additional pension of SO a
month, granted on an appeal to the
secretary of the interior.
SERGEANT GEORGE o. BoYCE of
Montpelier applied for pension on
account of hernia and rheumatism.
A pension of 50 month was allowed
him on rheumatism, and that part of
the claim based on hernia was rejected,
on the ground that his evidence failed
to connect the disability with his mill
tary service. He took an appeal to the
secretary of the interior, claiming that
his testimony was sufficient to warrant
the granting of a pension. A tele-
graphic dispatch from Washington in
forms him that his case has been de-
cided in his favor, and that a new pen
sion certificate will issue soon.

"That boy is worth his weight in

hours later, he listened to Ismail's ac-

drowned. -Selected.

Restoring a Battle Flag.

The event of the Goth ult. at the
New Orleans exposition was the cele-
bration of Connecticut Day and the
formal restoration to the original own
ers of the tattered battle flag captured
by the Ninth Connecticut from the
Third Mississippi at Pass Christian,
Miss, in 1862. The colors up to that
time had been at the Capitol at
Hartford, Conn, but both branches
of the legislature of that state sane
toned their return to the ex-confed-
crates. The ceremonies were held in
Music Hall, which was deliberately
decorated for the occasion. On the
