TO YOUNG MEN.
Most young men are ambitious to sue
coed in life, and try to get a start In The
business world, where their chances for adj
vancement and future prosperity are mos.
favorable. In these days of sharp compc
tition in business, a young man needs
sowe special traini g for the commercial
pursuits, just as much as for any of Tine
learned professions. The opportunities
young men and boys have, to sweep an
office for several years while learning the
business by absorption" are growing less,
and it is we'll .or The young men.
Ignorance is at a discount, but knOwl-
edge and skill will always be at a pre-
MUM. By small expenditure you can
earn enough more to get your money back
in few months, and have an education
that will double your chances ior success
always after.
Every dJllar of outlay in obtaining an
education should be viewed as an invest
ment rather than an expenditure, and that
is the best investment which brings the
quickest, surest and most ample returns.

RERATING OF PENSIONS.
An Order Of Commissioner Tanner Re.
voked by Assistant Secretary Bussey.

Assistant Secretary Bussey has rendered q
decision revoking the order issued by Commits
sioner Tanner April % extending to all PEN
sioners receiving less than - per month the
privilege Of going before their local examining
boards for rerating. Gen. Bussey says that the
error of the order by the late commissioner Of
pensions is manifest, and the resembling Of it
necessarily follows. 1t has neither the color Of
law nor the authority OF precedent. If, how
ever, it appears to you in the light Of medical
examination that the pensioner is entitled to
an increased rating for an increase Of liability
from chronic diarrhea, the pension Office will
sdjudicate his claim accordingly.
This decision was made upon the case Of a
man receiving 81 per month on account of
chronic diarrhea, who was decided by the
pension ONCE to be entitled to a rerating Of a
per month. Gen. Bussey thinks that an order
OF the commissioner of pensions is not sufi-
cient ground upon which the proposed increase
OF claimants rating is to be based ut is OBJ
vious," he says THAT, if it were admissible
that rates of pension for non-specifc disabili-
ties might be increased by mere order Of the
commissioner Of pensions, uniformed by or
regardless of medical evidence as to the degree
of said disabilities, the whole schedule of ratings
for such disabilities might be obliterated or
revolutionized by similar order, and, as a con-
sequence, the grossest inequalities, not to say
the most fragrant injustice, might be established
In the practice of the pension office. And 1t
might be properly added here that, II such an
order might be legitimately enforced by the
commissioner in one case, he might, by stroke
OF the pen, increase and rerate all pensioners
for non-specihc disabilities, without any re-
straint excepting his own discretion"

The Vesuyius, Gums Tested.

The official test of the cruiser Vesuvius' dyna-
mite guns took place on the Delaware yester-
day, and upon it depended the acceptance of
the vessel by the Secretary Of the Navy. At
am. the boat was towed back of Petty's island.
A mile was measured off, all boats warned away
and the test began. This consisted Of the firing
Of five shots from each of the three guns in ten
minutes and throwing a shell weighing $50
pounds distance OF one mile. No loaded
shells were used, but in the test Of the rapldity
and facility Of firing wooden plugs were uti-
LIKED, while in the firing for range and distance
the standard shells were used filed with sand
to make them equivalent to the loaded shells Of
$50 pounds.
At the first test the required number of shots
were fired with satisfactory results, each shot
striking the water within radius of a few yards
OF each other. Then came an interval of silence,
which was broken by the discharge Of half a
dozen more shots, which also struck the same
spot pretty accurately. The final shots were
fired with ten dummy shells, the second with
the regular cartridge, sand being substituted
for the charge Of dynamite. 1t was understood
due to one or two slight imperfections in the
mechanism Of the new Spezzia valves.
From the contract price Of the vessel the
government is now deducting a penalty of 5000
day. This loss does not fall upon the Cramps,
but upon the company who took the contract
contract specified that the boat should be COM
pleted within a certain period, and if not a
penalty Of $50 day would be deducted for a
certain time, and after that 800 a day; beyond
that second period goo day. 1t has now
been eighteen months since the launch, the
Cramps performing their part Of the contract.
The trouble has been entirely with the pneu-
matte guns. 1t was stated that the test Of yes
terday was entirely satisfactory to the board of
naval officers.

The Minnesota Chippewa Indian commission
has returned to st. Paul. having nearly finished
its work. The chairman, Ex-United States
Senator Henry NJ. Rice, in speaking Of the i'm
portant work done by the commission, says:
1.-The Indians of Red Lake have coded all their
country except a small reservation. The num-
Der of acres in the reservation coded is equal
to the size of Connecticut; in round figures
about 1000 900 acres. The tribal relations of
all these Indians have now ceased and under
the negotiations completed they will be COM
PEELED to take lands in severalty under what is
known as the Dawes BILL They are now full
fedged citizens and are placed under the laws
of the state 80 that they can be more readily
controlled. The lands are to be appraised and
sold and the sale must be at not less than the
appraised value, which is for pine lands not
less than SO per thousand feet of stumpage, and
for other lands Sl25 an acre. The pine lands
are said to be worth not less than Sc. 000, 900.
All the money received from these sales, after
deducting expenses will be placed in the Treas
ury of the United States and bear interest at
per cent A large portion Of this will be
spent for schools for Indians and to aid them
in Agricultural pursuits

Roasted to Death by Natural Gas.

The citizens Of Jerome, Ind, arranged for a
gas-well display Monday night and took for the
purpose the diamond plate gas well, just
drilled there, and tine strongest well in the
state. A 60-foot 4-inch pipe was laid from the
well and to this was attached 4-foot elbow
vertically. just when the torch was applied
the end which projected upward was pushed
over onto the ground and the immense pres
sure hurled the 60 feet of pipe around among
the spectators with terrible force. Most of the
younger people in the crowd were able to make
good their escape from the roaring flame which
burst from the pipe, but several were caught.
Chusa Warmon, pastor Of the Friends church,
was literally roasted to death. John Hogue
was SO badly burned that he cannot recover
Hiram Overman was knocked down in the STAN
pede and sustained fracture Of the skull.
Frank La Rue had his leg broken and amputa-
ton was found necessary. A number OF

Fighting Again For the Bloody Angle

hSdAH tHc DlOOuy 1uxlcs
The survivors Of the seventy second regi-
ment, Pennsylvania volunteers, are fighting
hard for permission to locate their monument
on the spot on the Gettysburg battlefield
where they lost 210 men on July 8, 1868. The
contest is between the regiment and the Gettys-
burg battlefield memorial association, which
owns the ground on which the battle was
fought. The Gettysburg commissioners ap-
pointed by Governor Beaver granted permits
sion to the regiment some time ago to erect
their monument in the 'Bloody Angle" whree
they did most Of their fighting. The battle
field association refused to allow the monument
to be placed on that site, and designated spot
on Hancock avenue several hundred yards from
the place where the regiment did its fighting.
The counsel for the regiment filed bill in
equity asking for an injunction restraining the
association from interfering with the location
OF the monument and the supreme court sus-
tanned the bill. Then the members of the asso-
citation declared they had discovered new evil
dence, and that it was not the seventy-second
that fought in the Bloody Angle, but New
York regiment and q Massachusetts regiment
1t is to decide this point that testimony Is being
taken in Philadelphia. A great many Witnesses
were examined yesterday. and the bulk of the
testimony went to show that the regiment oc-
cupied the position it claimed. The examiner
will continue to hear testimony for the rest of
the week. The members of the regiment are
confident Of carrying their point and getting
their monument in the Bloody Angle
