Relating To the new pension law,
comrades should bear in mind that it is
not a dependent law but a disability
law-there is no dependence about it.
If an honorably discharged soldier who
served at least so days is now disabled,
and the disability is not the result of
vicious habits, and it in any way inca
pacitates him for manual labor, he is
entitled to a pension. If soldier has
a claim pending or is now receiving
pension for slight wound or other dis
ability, he can make application under
the new law, naming all disabilities
and obtain pension of not less than
six nor more than 12 dollars per month.
Comrades, write to me for information
or send me your application. Remem-
Der that | had nearly six years expert
ence in the pension Office as a clerk at
the desk and as a special examiner, also
with the pension board of appeals, and
can give you valuable information and
assistance, and having had more than
400 claims allowed during the past 1S
months, and not single original invalid
claim rejected. The eating of the pud-
ding tests its quality. When i'm Kala-
mazoo call at my Office and fire your
questions at me, or write from your
home. Respectfully,

Revision.

This question has been exciting
the Presbyterian church for some
time, and the result of the vote by
presbyterles is 1873 in favor of revis.
ion and &C opposed to any change.
Seven presbyteres decline 10 express
an opinion, and seven were not heard
from. 1t is pretty safe to count all
of these as fayoring revision in the
near future.
A committee composed OF men,
bers of the majority and 2 of the
minority have been appointed to
consider the reports President Pat
ton of Princeton is chairman of the
committee and the probability is the
matter will be left in statu quo.

Fell Under the Cars.

Samuel Montgomery, who resides at
Leeds, in this county, fell under the
cars and was killed at the B. & 0. sta
ton at Newark, Del, on Wednesday
evening last. He was standing on the
platform in company with another
man and had a large market basket
with him. When the s % south bound
accommodation arrived at the depot he
became separated fsom his companion
and attempted to board the train as it
was moving off. He missed his hold
on the train and fell under the wheels
of the second coach, which ran over
his breast and arms. After the train
passed he was found lying across the
track aid was at once taken into the
station and DR. Kollock was summoned.
but there was no need of his services as
the man had been instantly killed. Mr.
Montgomery was about so years of age
and unmarried. He was wood dealer,
and also converted wood into charcoal.
He had been in Newark during the
afternoon purchasing groceries, &C.,
and when picked up had over $500 on
his person. 1t was not the groceries
that caused him to fall under the train.
The above report is taken from the
Appeal. What did, if the groceries are
innocent, cause him to fall under the
train?

A Suspected Horse Thief In Jail.


About one week ago James Adams
of Kinks Mills, Lancaster county,
PIT bay mare in the Eagle Hotel
stables, West Chester. A few hours
afterwards he was arrested by Officer
Jefferis on suspicion of having stolen
the mare and trying to sell her. At
the hearing Adams stated he and his
mother. Mrs. Susan Adams, had
raised the horse and that it belonged
to them. The young man, who is
about 20 years of age was put in
Jail and the matter investigated
Officer McFadden of Oxford visited
Mrs. Adams Monday and she said
she was wondering where her son
was, that he had never been away
from home so long before. On Mon
day young Adams was pressed with
questions by the officer at West
Chester when he confessed the mare
belonged to Frank Pickering, who
had told Adams to sell her. Officer
Jefferis came to Oxford Tuesday
morning and the matter will be
thoroughly sifted. 1t is said Picker
ing has left the neigborhood. The
people OF that section have suffered
from much thieving during the past
winter and it is hoped the guilty
parties will be brought to Justice

the prosperity of that state. She also spoke

Prohibition That Prohibits.

The saloon echo that prohibition
don't prohibit, is now seldom heard
except from that class who aspire 10
discuss political matters, of whom it
is said never learn anything and
never forget anything they have once
imbibed. When North and South
Dakota were admitted as States,
their constitutions prohibited the
manufacture and sale of Intoxicating
liquors as beverage. The law en-
forcing this provision took effect
May 1st. Some prohibitionist, who
enjoys mocking at the saloons
calamity, inserted an advertisement
in the Lincoln, Nebraska, Call, a few
weeks before the taking effect of the
prohibitory law in South Dakota,
calling for the services of man
competent to take charge of retail
liquor establishment. The adver-
tisemcnt brought the advertiser a
shower of letters from Dakota, 18 Of
which were published in last week 8
Voice. The letters are all of the
same tenor. We give one as fair
sample of them all:
ORDwAY March II 80

Some of the letters are quite
lengthy, and all contained a para
graph substantially the same as
embraced by the words in capital
letters. These bar tenders and sa-
loon proprietors were fleeing from
the State, not because prohibition
didn't prohibit, but because they
knew it would.
And prohibition is the only meas
ure that will check and finally de-
stroy the liquor business. License,
high, low or middling, containing all
the restrictive clauses that ingenuity
can divise is a mere rope of sand. All
the rum seller asks is permission by
law to sell, He will manage the rest.
Had the Dakotas in place of pro-
hibitory law adopted "high license"
no matter how high. not one of
those rum sellers would have an.
swered the advertisement in the
Call, at Lincoln, Neb., where the
lowest license is $1,000.
At night, when "honest people are
in bed" is the time the saloon is in
full blast, and all restrictions" are
then thrown to the winds, with no
