SENATOR EvARTS, LOG CABIN.

| Senator Evarts has erected an old fash
| toned Log Cabin on an elevated point OF
| land which he lately purchased on the
Potomac, just below Washington.
1t is much more elegant in its finish and
appointments than were the homes Of our
| ancestors il the Log Cabin days of long
ago, but probably not more conducive to
comfort
Outside, it presents the appearances OF
the typical old fashioned house Of the
pioneers. being built of logs hewn in the
adjacent forest and raised and chinked in
the olden style. The interior will be fin
ished in native woods from the place, but.
unlike the primitive original, 1t viii be
finished in OIL
This is a luxury TO which the jewellers in
the rude Cabins of early days dared not
aspire, it being pure luxury, and not add
ing to the comfort of the domicile.
Senator Evarts began the Log Cabin
last summer with the determination that.
If Gen. Harrison were elected, he would
reverse the popular campaign axiom of
half century ago, From the Log Cabin
to the White House." to a social axiom of
the new administration, From the White
House to the Log Cabin"
Harrison was successful; S nator Evarts'
new. old-fashioned, Log Cabin will doubt
IcSS dlsO d SIcdt SOCScS>. .ndAA d
happy days surcease from the tolls and
cares of his great situation. our Log Cabin
president will no doubt enjoy beneath its
hospitable roof as the guest of the genial,
senior senator from New York.
Great as the success may be that attends
the introduction of this old-time log cabin
to fashionable life, it cannot be greater
than the success which has attended the
introduction of Warmers Log Cabin Sar-
saparilla, one of the old-time, effective
remedies, the use of which in primitive
times, gave our grand parents health and
rugged old age.
Senator Evart's log cabin is but another
evidence of the tendency in fashionable
life, at present so marked, toward things
primitive and antiquated. The new fash
lon is for things old-fashioned, and a re-
turn TO the OLD fashioned roots and herbs
remedies of log cabin days is noted with
pleasure, as their common use does not
permanently injure the system, as the use
of mineral drugs of modern medical prac-
tica does

PENSION DECISIONS.

pension decisions, of which four are of gen.
eral Importance. In the case of William
Evans, late of Company l, Fifty-fourth
Ohio Volunteers, the former action of The
commissioner of pensions is reversed and
claimant allowed the pension. 1t appears
from testimony in the case that some of
Evans comrades while playing threw a
piece of iron which struck him on the leg
causing compound fracture which has re-
NAMED running sore ever since. The
former action WAS taken on the ground
that the injury was not received while in
In the c&se of William Jones, late of
company u. Ninety-ninth Ohio volunteers,
similar action was taken Jones while in
Camp Chase, Ohio in 1865, was precipitat-
ed over balustrade by some comrades
who were scuffiing, receiving an injury
which resulted in scrotal hernia.
Alexander Mank, late of company E.
Twenty-seventh Pennsylvania volunteers
was similarly injured by comrade jump
ing upon his back. Mank is granted a
pension.
In the case Of John W. Jones, late of
company 4. Fifth West Virginia volun-
tsers, the evidence shows that the claim
ant had his leg broken above the ankle by
a soldier coming up behind him and
throwing his whole weight upon his
leg, crushing the bone. 4 bout six months
later he accidentally fell while carrying a
pail of water from a stream and broke his
leg again. The former d cision Was that
the first injury was not receiv d in line Of
duty and that the second injury was at
tributable to the first. The assistant sec
rotary reverses the decision and directs
that the soldier be given pension.
