RObbing the Treasury.

From the New y Ork Evening Post.
The generosity Of the government in the
matter OF pensions is illustrated by O case re-
ported in a Montpelier letter to the Boston
JourndLap Mrs. Amira II. Farrar of Waterbury,
VT, has just received the large sum of S4,I25
In cash as arrears, and the assurance Of SIS q
month as long rs she lives, as the pension due
dependent mother. 1t appears that a son of
Mrs. Waldo enlisted in the army in April, S6I !,
and was killed at Gettysburg i'm July, 1868,
and the pension is allowed upon the ground
that he Was her only support. But 1t also ap-
pears tnat when the soldier son died Mrs.
Waldo's husband and three other sous We're
alive; that the family lived on a good tarm
we'll stocked with horses and cattle, and that
these other sons are still alive and able to sup
port the mother. 1t is not surprising to ind
that "there is considerable excitement among
the neig ghbors' OF Mrs. Farrar IN the little town
OF $50 people, where she lives, at ner receiving
in a lump sum what in that region is q fortune,
upon the ground that one OF her sons was killed
In the army nearly a quarter of u century ago
and that she was dependent for support upon
tuis particular one OF her four sous. Such
case as this has a bearing upon the Presidents
vetoes. hen the Pension bureau interpretS
the law literally as to grant pensions in
cases like Mrs. Farrars, it is obvious that there
Is small excuse for carrying to Congress cases
which the bureau is unable to allow. and that
Mr.. Cleveland was abundantly justified In veto
ing many of the private pension bills.

Foolish Mary Anderson.

Lucy Hooper in the New York World
Miss Mary Anderson is also one OF the resi-
dents of the Bottoms just now, and has been liv-
ing there very quietly throughout the present
season. She is supposed to be resting, though
her choice OF London spot in which to seek
seclusion and repose is certainly rather singu-
lar. She has not been much disturbed in her
retirement, should imagine, for, from all that
read ON the subject while was in the British
capital, should infer that .Our Mary was,
socially, by no means popular in London.
When in the height of her success she put on
airs, am told, to a very great extent, not only
refusing ali prOffered Invitations that did not
emanate from noble or royal personages, but
usually emitting even the trif1ing iOrmality OF
returning the calls which were paid her, espe-
cially If the callers CHANGED to be Americans
This was not wise conduct on the part OF the
beautiful actress. 1t is not well for any one, no
matter how successful or famous. to go about
sowing enemies. The seed is sure TO spring up
sooner or later and may bear bitter fruit, As
Marie Van Zand, for instance, found to her
cost when the hour of tribulation arrived for
her. 1t is no secret that her immense unpopu-
iarity with her fellow artists at the Opera Com
ique had much to do with the refusal of the
Partisan public to overlook the'crowning disas-
ter OF her career at that theater.

must give up his money or have his brains
blown out. Rsedy was Tor q moment paralyzed
with fear and a cold sweat broke out on his
brow. A hand was placed in his pocket to re-
lleve him OF any money he might have ana
this action aroused him. Feeling that the nis-

struggle with the would-be robbers Over tha

In the interior OF the vault was upset COffins

The noise attracted passers by, and ON their
approach the would-be felons suddenly de-
camped, leaving Reedy ON the door of the vanlt
exhausted. but still in possession Of his money.

A WOman's Courage at Sea.
fk,xa Nakl- ri

From the New Orleans Picayune.
Captain Walace's niece, a young English girl,
married a sea captain and went in his sailing
vessel with her husband, visiting many coun-
tries with him. On her first trip, when she
was yet young bride, there was a mutiny,
and her husband was wounded or knocked
senseless in his cabin. The sailors were about
to spring down the companion-way into the
cabin, when the young woman barred the way,
pistol in hand, and promised to shoot the first
man who moved toward her. She held them
thus at bay till wrath burned out, and the
mutiny was at an end. On the next voyage
they were shipwrecaed, and this brave-hearted
girl, with her young baby, was lashed to the
rigging. and remained there for several days
before they were rescued. They had nothing
to eat, and the mothers natural food for her
child was exhausted. BY some means a can OF
meat was lished up from the ship, aud the child
1ed on this until ii was ali gone, and the little
one about to starve But the mother put her
teeth into her hand, between the thumb and
1orefinger, and bit a cash into her own flesh,
from which the blood flowed. The child sucked
this, and that night the almost dying crew and
the brave Salor-wiTe were rescued.
