THE PENSION ROLLS Salaries of Clerks Who Pay
 Money to the Veterans.
TOTAL NUMBER OF PENSIONERS
More Disabled Soldiers in Ohio Than in
 Any State in the Union.

Personalities Indul.ed iu at the Breck-
 silver Notes to be Giscmlatsd This
 Week Republican senators to Hold
 Another Caucus.
 WAsHINGToN, July 16.-A letter from the Commissioner of Pensions was sent to the Senate in response to a resolu- tion of inquiry as to the number of pensioners paid at each agency and the allowance for clerk hire during the past and the present fiscal year.
 As shown by the statement of the commissioner, the Columbus, Ohio, pensioners, 5,560, and receives an allowance of $24, 200 for clerk hire during the fiscal year 1891, an increase of $6,000 over last years allowance.
 Indianapolis comes next, with 49, 750 pensioners and $25, ,000 clerk hire allow ance, an increase of nearly 5000.
 Chicago ranks third, having 44, 157 pensioners to pay and $20, 1000 for clerk hire.
 New York has 25,916 pensioners on it's rolls and an allowance of $15,000, which is the amount allowed Philadel- phia, with nearly 5000 moro pension CTS on the rolls.
 San Francisco brings up the rear with S,394 pensioners and $3, 500 for clerk hire.
 The total number of pensioners at all agencies was 532, ,479 on May last, and the allo owance for clerk hire this year is $236, 920. as against SIT, $50 last year. The Appropriation act provides that the allowance for clerk hire shall be proportioned as nearly as practica- ble to the number of pensioners paid at each agency. The commissi oner says many other things must be taken into consideration, such as the cost of living at the various cities in which agencies are located, and the number of personal payments to be made.

DRuDoERY IN LITERATURE.
Ceaseleas, Patient Work the Price of He
 erary Success.

Censeieas, Patient Work the Price of Lle-
 erary Success.
 Whether one shall find drudgery in literature or not depends partly on tenn perament or circumstances and on the work one desires to accomplish. If writer be content to let essays and sto- rios bubble up easily from his mind, on such themes as may please him at the moment, or if he be in position to stay his pen when he is tired and do nothing more until he is again inclined to work, then, no doubt, he may pursue the pro- fession of literature without drudgery. All are not so lucky or indifferent or gifted as to be able to do this.
 Walter scott turned of his inimitable 'copy" in few hours each day, with people and dogs making noise around him. But Dickens had to drudge to such an extent that his health was imperiled. even before he tried to carry out his ann bition of being a country gentleman. Thackeray confessed that he never set himself to the task of novel writing at his desk without a terrible effort, and that he always laid down his pen with a sense of glad relief
 Notwithstanding the delicious ''lit- erary gossip" paragraphs, which assure uS bll0I AouF UT AlNt hpuES N udN WILL 0uA- fee for the production of masterpiecOs, George Parsons Lathrop says, in the New York Independent most of the au- thors whom he has known are obliged to work hard for twelve or sixteen hours a day at least, which leaves them very little time for leisure or pleasure. They are compelled to do this even at times when they would rather rest or sleep, or s,.lr hN 'l, myself" says Lathrop ''have often bowed to this necessity of work ing continuously without sleep or meat or amusement: and should long since | have concluded that it must be owing to my own stupidity, but for the fact of discovering that other authors, who are much more in the worlds eye, have to do the same sort of thing. love my | kind of work, I revere the art which I serve as earnestly us any one can; but when my fingers have clutched pen holder for eight or ten hours at a stretch. | and the whole of such brain and nerve power as possess has been brought to bear during that time, I confess that a due regard for veracity will not allow me to assert that the process has not involved drudgery. A redeeming and
 
 such arduous labors. have found com fort in toilsome hack work, because 1t is always satisfactory to perform even Ob- scure service thoroughly and to the best of ones power, and because by such work could earn time to do higher and better things, which were quite certain not to win for me that cash compensa- tiOn whereby the mortal part of a man is kept going. But, simply on the ground that there is great and endur- ing delight in the severest literary ex- ertion. to spread notion that the pro- fessional author need not undergo drudgery, seems to me mischievous. It arouses false hope in young aspirants who have not yet measured the tre- mendous problem of performing the best work under endless discouragements and at the cost of ceaseless, patient toll. "

A LIVELY HEARING.
Personalities 1ndulEed In Over the Ere k

Personalities Indulg ged In Over the Ere c k
 inridgs-ClaytOn Election Case.
 WASHINGTON, July 16.-Concluding arguments in the Clayton n-Breckinridge contested election case have begun be- fore the House Committee on Elections. Judge John Mcclure, of Arkansas, ap- peared for the contestant, Col. Clayton, who was assassinated soon after he had served notice of his intention to con test Mir. Breckinridge's seat.
 Judge Mcclure spoke at length con corning the statements made by Mir. Breckinridge, in which he attributed the contest of his seat to Mcclure and not o.Col. Clayton. Judge Mcclure said thrt he could see no purpose in these insinuations, except that Mir. Breckin- ridge wanted to incite his partisans to do with him as they had done with Clayton.
 At this point Representative Crisp of Georgia, a Democratic member of the committee, appealed to the chairman to prevent the utterance of such personali- ties. Mr. Crisp said he would leave if more language of this tenor were in dulged in.
 Chairman Rowell cautioned Judge Mcclure to avoid personalities. Judge Mcclure then went on to try and prove that other murders committed in Ar kansas bore some relation to the mur- der of Clayton. He argued at length that the murder of Clayton was politi- cal but exonerated the people eff Arkan- sas from complioity in it. The poll. tlcians were responsible, he said.
 Judge Mcclure continuing his argu. ment, insinuated that Mir. Breckinridge had countenanced the stealing of ballot boxes, and that by countenancing a corrupt political movement he was morally responsible for the death of Clayton. He quoted from the charge of Judge Cunningham to the grand jury, called to indict the men accused of stealing the Plummerville ballot box, and discussed the vote of each precinct in MT. Breckinridge's district in which fraud was alleged to have been perpetrated. He referred in sar- castle terms to the theory that Thomas Hooper was the murderer of Clay ton.
 Mir. Breckinridge, who was present, said that at midnight last night he had been given an elaborate brief prepared by his attorney, Mir. Garland, and he would read 1t before the committee.

\ Bright Hoy.

Charlie S- is a very bright boy, and never at loss for an excuse. He is also something of a naturalist. Walk ing along with a young lady one day, he heard tree-toad suddenly begin its shrill chirp. 1t will rain within twen- ty-four hours" he announced, oracular- ly. That is a sure sign; never known to fail" His prediction was received in good faith; but after twenty-four hours of remarkably pleasant weather he was taken to task about his prediction. "Oh, we'll" he replied instantly, in an injured tone, "the tree-toad lied. am not responsible for his morals"
 Another time, having been requested to perform some little service, he came to receive his reward. His father offered him his choice between silver dime and an old-fashioned copper cent. "I have always been taught to take the smallest piece," he remarked, gravely, pocketing the dime.-Harper's Bazaar.

The warmcst Region on Earth.

There are many very warm spots on the torrid zonc, but Bohrin, by the Gulf of Persia, seems to be, as far as temper ature goes, absolutely without a rival. For forty consecutive days in July and August last year, which was by no means an exceptional season, the ther- mometer was known not to fall lower than 100 degrees Fahrenheit, night or day, and often ran up as high as 12S de- greeS in the afternoon. Nature, as if to make the spot as intolerable to human beings as possible, has banished all water from the rocks of the locality, at least none has ever been procured by digging to depths of nearly 800 feet, and the numerous pits or dry wells in the neigh borhood show how thoroughly the upper stratum has been tapped. In spite of these apparently insuperable obstacles, however, mankind has con- trivcd to flourish and multiply in this region to an amazing extent and the necessary fresh drinking water which the land has refused to yield is obtained from the bottom of the Gulf of Persia, where, at a distance of moro than a mile from the shore. innumorable copi- ous springs burst forth.-Scotsman.

THE democratic newspapers are the delight of John Wanamaker, but he is the maker of his own fortune and fame. It occurred in 1857 when Kane, the Arctic explorer, was buried. While the thousands lined n street of Philadelphia, waiting for the funeral cortege and the head of the line was momentarily ex- pected, a gaily painted express wagon drawn by two beribboned horses dashed along the vacant line of march and there tluttered from the wagon and sift- ed through the crowds deluge of hand bills, "Go to Wanamaker for cheap pants," Gents underwear at half price," Cut rates in hosiery" were among the seductive invitation which were eagerly received by the crowd. and the young man who had so success fully evaded police regulations, driving his horses with one hand and distribu- ting his advertisements with the other was none other than John Wanamaker himself. This man now uses Bethany Sunday school for similar purposes.

According to the mine ventilation laws of Pennsylvania as soon as a fan stops working the men in the mines must be notified at once and ordered or brought out, We have it on good au- thority that recently, when an accident happened at the Mt Pleasant mine by which the fan was stopped, word was merely sent to the barn boss to remove the mules from the mine, and it was by a roundabout way the men in the cham bers were notified of their danger in being liable to death from an accumula- tion of gas. There was a time when q good, healthy negro was worth $1 ,O00, or the price of several mules, but in these Pennsylvania coal regions brawny, hard-working, intelligent men to the number of a couple of score or more, are worth less than mule.

THE friends of the federal election bill have wisely kept Foraker in the back ground since the introduction of the measure. They want him to aid it by saying nothing in its favor. It remains to be seen. however, how long the gener- al will remain silent. It must be ter rible strain on him to let an opportunity to wave the bloody shirt go by.

THE Baltimore Herald and the Mon treal Witness are at loggerheads over the question as to who shall be the next pope The Herald is for Cardinal Gib- bons. and the witness is for Cardinal Taschereau. As the two newspapers cannot agree. it looks as if the matter would have to be left ultimately to a papal consistory. Meanwhile Pope Leo is administering the affairs of the church satisfactorily.
