The President v.toes Pension BiiIs

WASHINGTON. February 2j.-The Presi-
dent today vetoed six private pension bills,
five of which originated in the House and
one in the senate. Bills granting pensions
10 Squire Waiter. Henry V. Bass, William
Barnes. and John j. Jockey were disap-
proved upon the ground that the death or
disability OF q soldier on account OF which
tension Is sought was not due to his military
service. The bill In favor OF Edwin w.
Warner was vetoed because OF the fact that
prior TO the passage OF the bill pension Of
SlS per month. with $1,000 arIearages, bad
been allowed by the Pension Bureau. AS to
toe case OF John McCol the President In his
veto message says:
The report Of the committee IN the House
OF Representatives recommending the pas.
sage OF this bill contains no lntimati0n that
there exists any disability contracted in the
military service. but distinctly declares aud
states that the beneficiary IL bind. AS long
~ the policy OF granting pensions for disa-
bIlity Is tlsceable to incidents Of the army
service ia adhered TO the allowance OF PEN
siOns by special acts based upon service only
gives rise 10 unjust aud unfair discrimi-
nations among those equally entitled, and
makes precedents which will eventually re-
suit in an entire departure from the princi-
pie upon which pensions are now awarded.

Impressive Services i'm Commemoration OF

n Lie 1bnt was Lovely ana hlch In
Worthy Promise.
Grace Episcopal Church, Mount Wash
ington, was filled in pew and aisle yesterday
afternoon by friends come to pay the last
token of respect over the mortal remains of
Miss Edith n. Ferguson. the artist. The
casket was almost hidden beneath a wealth of
the flowers her pencil had been wont to portray
SO faithfully. In a few touching words the
rector, Rev. r. j.. Coster, paid rich tribute to
the young life whose large attainment and
greater promise, artistic, literary, womanly.
makes its untimely end all the sadder. Equally
touching was the beautiful hymn, Rock
Of Ages" as sung by Miss Belle
Toner, Mrs. G. H. Hnmbert, Messrs.
F. ]. Bussman, L. II. Dermitt and W. A. Nc
Cutcheon, accompanied by the organist, Mr..
Melville Stout. Mrs. Humbert also sang a
pathetic solo selection. The pail bearers were
Messrs. John Hammer, H. S. Stevenson, E. W.
and A. Y. Smith, Chris Metsinger and c. W.
Scovel. After the impressive services were
concluded, the family and immediate friends
followed their beloved dead to her final resting
place in Allegheny Cemetery.
Thus descended the curtain upon a life
drama which, though SO brief, was of more
than ordinary interest.
Edith Ferguson was not one to hide her tai
ents in a napkin. Though her true, womanly
heart was thoroughly responsive to the love
and comfort of the home circle, her earnest ma
ture early impelled her to devote herself to a
serious life work in the art for which nature
had SO richly endowed her After graduating
with highest honors at the Pittsburg School of
Design, she spent some three years at the Eu-
ropean art ~centers, making a special study of
Spanish life and art in Seville. Returning to
Pittsburg, she entered upon an active profess
sional life, which, in spite of her modest and re-
firing disposition, had already won high
need of success. She soon was chosen
for the faculty of her alma mater
the School of Design, and the pretty little
studio she built by her Mt Washington home
became well known in widening circles
as a source of dainty, artistic crea-
tons. Her special talent was for illustra-
ton in water color; editions de lure of
choice poems may be found in some of Pitts
burg's most luxurious parlors a~ttesting the
originality of design. the skill in execution and
the rare poetic appreciation she brought to this
branch of art.
Nor were Miss Ferguson's talents confined TO
art alone; she could drop the pencil
and WELD the pen instead, with
skill. Under the nom de plume of
Edna Fletcher she has from time 10
time contributed to THE DISPATCH bright.
thoughtful letters upon life and nature as seen
in her artistic ramblings, besides an occasional
modest bit of verse with the true ring in il.
special talents, through which Edith
touched the world at large, were set
in the pure gold of a nobly rounded character
enhanced by many graces of mind and
heart, which she freely devoted to those who
knew her best and who mourn her most,

dressed in cloth of gold and with heavy
gold bracelets on his wrists and ankles, sit
ting in a wedding chair with little baby
girl of not over 2, who lay asleep at the
other end of the chair while the procession
moved onward. Her sleep was heavy, and
she had probably been drugged with opium.
This was a marriage of two wealthy fam
lilies, and the wedding procession was very
grand. At the head of it were two camels
with trappings of gold ridden by bare
legged men in red and gold turbans, and
wearing clothes of gold cloth. Behind
them came an elephant with gorgeous trap
pings, and II Arabian horses followed.
These horses had gold bracelets about their
fore legs Just above the knee, and there were
great silver bells running from the saddle
along the back to the crupper. The saddles
were of silver cloth, the stirrups were of
silver, and the bride was decorated with
gold. Between these horses came the we'd
ding chair, and this was a sort of litter
perhaps SIX feet square containing a bed
with cushions and pillows and over it was
stretched canopy of red and gold. With
in it was the bridal couple and the process
sion was accompanied by a band which
played during the march, 1--WE Won't Go
Home Till Morning" 1t was a native
band, but it had probably had an English
instructor, and this tune served as the wed
ding march.
