Widows Pensions.

WASHINGTON, June 1O.-The President
has approved the act Of Congress provid-
ing that pensions heretofore or hereafter
granted to widows of soldiers of the war
iof the rebellion shall commence at the
date Of the death Of their husbands. This
legislation favorably affects all claims Of
widows Of the late war which have been
filed In the Pension Office on or after July
1, 1880, and which have been allowed to
commence from the date of the fling OF
the claims; but will not favorably affect
the cases Of such widows as were filed be-
fore July l, 1880, and which have been oil.

Of Pensions gives notice that in the settle

will not be necessary. Widows entitled,
under said law, need only write q letter

The Result Of Merit.

When anything stands a test OF fifty
years among discriminating people, it
is pretty good evidence that there is
merit somewhere. Few, If any, medi.
cines have met with such continued sue
cess and popularity as has marked the
progress of Brandreth's Pills, which,
after trial Of over fifty years, are con.
ceded to be the safest and most effectual
blood purifier, tonic and Alternative ever
introduced to the public.
That this is the result of merit, and
that Brandreth's Pills perform all that is
claimed for them, is conclusively proved
by the fact that those who regard them
with the greatest favor are those who
have used them the longest.
Brandeth's Pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plain or sugar.

HANGED By A MOB.

Forty Armed Men Take Ieoherous james
Foster From Jaii and Make short Work
Of Him.
EVANSVILLE, IND, June 11.-At Hender-
son, KY, twelve miles below here, at one
O'Clock this morning, James Foster, color
ed, was taken from jail and hanged.
Foster was arrested Thursday morning at
the instance of John Howard, charged with
outraging the latter's little eight-year-old
daughter, Q few miles from Henderson, In
strenuously denied his guilt, but most con-
elusive evidence OF his guilt was found
on his clothing, which was stained
with blood. The greatest Indignation
was created throughout the neighborhood,
and threats Of lynching were heard on oil
sides. A mob came in from the country
last night, but they found Jailor johnson on
the alert, and they returned to their homes,
determined to come back and avenge the
brutal crime. As the quiet little city was
asleep at midnight two hundred Kentuck-
ians, mounted on horseback and armed to
the teeth, to repel any official resistance,
rode into the city. Pulling up at the Jail,
they made . dash for the barred
doors and before the jailor was fully
alarmed they were inside. Breaking
down the cell door, they dragged
the lecherous brute out into the
street, and putting him into vehi.
Gle started with him for the scene Of him
crime before the town was aware Of the
intrusion. All along the road the pris'
oner begged and beseeched his captors tc
spare his life, end told all manner Of sto'
ries to prove his innocence. But Ken.
tuckians have learned to turn deaf ears
to the pleas Of those who so cruelty wreck
and stain the fair name Of their State. and
when the party had arrived at the woods
where the outrage was committed they
selected q strong oak, threw the fatal rope
over limb and strung the wretch up.
Then they quietly dispersed.

The question of Western Loans is being gener-
ally discussed in the North and East, where most
Of the money that is put on western lands comes
from. Loaning companies are a necessity Of the
times. The business world demands them. We
want to offer to prove that the Texas Loan
Agency is governed by absolute safety in making
loans.
Ist. The officers of the Texas Loan Agency have
their own private fortunes invested in the stock Of
the company, and a weakness in the security Of
loans jeopardizes everything they own.
I'D. The Texas Loan Agency guarantees every
loan, and becomes an insurer to the extent Of the
loans it makes. Any weak loan would endanger
the private funds of the officers.
3d. In the ti0htest times this country has seen
for long time the Texas Loan Agency reduced
the rate of interest allowed investors from per
cent to 7 per cent, showing that this agency was
not offering extra inducements to investors to get
their money
4th. The payment Of principal or interest in any
loan has never been delayed day.
sth. The Texas Loan Agency loans only 40 per
cent Of the value Of the land.
9th. The standing Of the company is shown by
the fact that its stock sells at premium Of rs per
cent
7th. Its debenture bonds are based only on first
liens on land.
sth, In no other State are such small loans made
on such rich land

STATEHOOD.

About month since, the Santt
Fe New Mexican issued circular
which it addressed to every prom
inent citizen of New Mexico, en-
quiring of them their views upor
the )ropriety OF making a strong
pull andaa pull altogether, to have
our Territory admitted into fellow
ship with the States of the Union.
Many then addressed have re-
sponded, and the great majority
favor Statehood. Indeed all that
can be called argument has been
presented on the affirmative side.
There are some moss-backs who
oppose on the ground OF expense,
winch is the veriest rot. The add
ed dignity and enhanced status
which Statehood would give us,
would increase our population and
wealth, and the trife increase in
taxation would not be felt, for in
creased ability to pay would ac-
company the responsibility.
Then, too, our people would be
privileged to select and elect our
own officers instead of having old
political hacks untitled for service,
and tar from ornamental. New
Mexico's present is gratifying, it S
future promising, and instead of
having governmental representa-
tlVes here, representing a prehis-
toric age, we should have live
men, full of the elements of the
present American age.
Again, with two representatives,
in the L. S. Senate, and one or
more i'll the lower house of Con
gress, matters now ag.tlting and
disturbing our people and rctard-
ing our progress anG factors, would
be removed, and soon New Mex
Ic' would shine resplendent in the
galaxy OF States.
Many other cogent reasons
could be given in favor of State
hood-not good one can be given
for longer tutelage.

Everybody laugh
There may not be much sense in a
laugh, but there's heap of happiness in
unused laughs, that, if they were used,
would make mankind better, if no wiser
a sensible man always laughs, for he re-
alizes, by the very force of his reason,
that it's natural and has purpose. The
respo 1sibility of laugh is great. The
purpose for which it was intended, is
doubtless that mankind should use it as
"a means to convey emotions, and it GER
tainly does express the happiest of our
natures, except when sitting with your
Christmas girl and feeling soft.
