American Pensions.

EDITOR CmTic; The article which you
published the other day from the Detroit
NeWs relative TO pensions in the United
States and abroad does not state the facts
nor make fair comparisons. The article
says: "The German Empire, which has
passed through the greatest war ofmodern
times and IS ready TO put about 3,000,O00
soldiers in the field for another pays only
$l0,00O,0C0 a year in pensions. Great
Britain. which is always at war in some
part of the world and maintains navy
which can whipall others combined and
an army Which manages to Keep 100000
0C0 of people in tolerable order, pays only
8,O00,O00in pensions. The United States
whose soil has not been touched by an
armed foreign enemy since 1912, which
has enjoyed almost undisturbcd peace,
broken only by the civil war Of 1850,
which closed quarter Of q century ago,
and which has no army or navy to speak
ofnow pays $50, 100000 in pensions"
The pension roll of the United States,
containing, as il does, names of the
survivors and widows of the war of 1912,
the survivors and widows of the Mexican
war, and the disabled, their widows and
dependents of the war of the rebellion,
mot "civil war; Is small when the re-
suits are considered Why, the Mexican
war alone, which the writer of the art
| Gle passes over as not worthy of mention,
added to the area of this country q vast
| empire, full of wealth in silver, gold and
in which either of the countries named
would be lost almost out of sight AS
for the war of the rebellion, none of
the wars of Christendom can compare
with it either IN the terrible havoc to
life and health, numbers engaged or the
results. 1t preserved and reunited us q
nation OF people that for four bloody
the result Of the happy reunion, has
! rolled up n surplus of revenue III the
Treasury from which payment annually
to the pension roll of honor IS relief
rather than burden.

} The Drnmmer Rny.

One of the most realistic representa-
tions Of the stirring scenes of the great
rebellion is the play "The Drummer
Boy Of Shiloh'' that is being presented
by local talent at the Masonic Tenn
pie. The young people give better
idea of the horrors Of war than could be
gained from dozen books. The Marion
Rifles make model company of United
States regulars, and each roll is faithfully
portrayed, Master s. G.. Steine, who as
sumes the unthankful part of Frank
Rutledge, being especially worthy of
MENTION Humor, pathos, comedy and
entertainment is made thoroughly en-
ioyable.

The locals had easy work disposing of
the Athletics yesterday and won by to 3,
making 0 hits and 3 errors, to 6 and.5 re-
specuvely for the visitors.
The Athletics are certainly the hardest
lool<ing.gang that have yet been seen on
the Nationals grounds, and their actions
matched their appearance.
What should have been an exciting and
enjoyable game was constantly marrcd by
the outburst fsome loud.mouthed kicker
who took advantage of the weakness of
the umpire to browbeat him.
The Athletics wouldn't dare repeat their
conduct of yesterday with Doeschcr, Gati-
ncy or McQuade.
Tom Cunning, who caught for the visit
ors, was recognized rs an old favorite.
He isnot vet in condition for the season,
but VIII be ripe for the championship
games.
Wilmot made II wonderful catch of a fly
near the foul line, which he captured af-
ter a long run from left field.
Haddock of the Troys umpired, and in
his anxiety to be fair gave several de-
cisions against the locals. A close de-
clsion at first base, which he gave against
the visitors, was doubtless wrong.
Gleason, one of the Athletics acquisi-
tons from st. Louis, made some fine
stops, which were literally applauded.
Have plenty Of balls at the grounds,
Manager Sullivan.
Clarkson pitched his first game for
Boston Yesterday. Kelly caught. There's
from the Northwest, pitched for the nine
that played the Boston's regular nine.
Nine hits were made off Clarkson and 10
OFF Soyders. -Four thousand five hundred
people saw the game. The regulars
won.
Cleveland drubbed Toronto again yes

ttoit 9 to5.

A Cloud Emil Iem

Clouds take upon themselves
curious forms sometimes, but the
most distinct and perfect form ever
represented by the fleecy substance
was seen here yesterday. 1t was
the outlines of an American eagle
almost perfect in shape and from
the Republican Office it appeared to
be lowering over the flag pole on
the plaza from which the flag was
flying at half-mast, in memory OF
the lamented Sheridan. 1t was a
curious and patriotic sight and was
witnessed and admired by many
passers-by. 1t remained in position
for half an hour before the wind
dissipated the cloud. Re-
publican.

Emerald Bay.

DIR. Kirby is making a beautiful
resort of Emerald Bay. OF all the
locations on the Lake there is none
to surpass this. He has a point
jutting out into the Lake, a mineral
spring, the finest cascade on the
Coast, a dashing, foaming trout
creek, Bay known all over the
country, and splendid landing.
The only island in the Lake is in
Emerald Bay.
He has erected a number of cot
tages, and has been full to overflow
ing ever since he opened.
