GENERAL CURTIS'S HOBBY.
A Legislator Who Wants Capital Punishment
Abolished-His Fate Under Civil Service.

Gen. N NJ. Curtis, of Ogdensburg N. Y,
who has represented his county for seven
years in the Legislature, is,here to meet the
survivors of the Thirteenth Indiana In
fantry at their reunion to-day. They were
part of the Generals command for short
time. and he and Gen. r. S. Foster, the
first colonel of the regiment, are close
friends General Curtis lost an eye at Fort
Fisher, but with the other he is a keen OBJ
server of men and affairs. In a crowd his
towering height distinguishes him, as he
can look down on people of some six feet
stature. In affairs he covers great deal
of ground. but never loses sight of his hob
by. the abolition of capital punishment.
Il went into the army" he said yester-
day, IA believer In the teaching of life
for a life. Indeed, / thought hanging was
too good for n murderer. but the first ex-
tember, ls6l-induced mo to do all / could
to prevent executions. In my observation
of their effect found they were damage
to the courage of soldiers. / would prefer
TO lead men into battle whose ranks had
beed decimated by shot and shell than to
execution of the thousandth. My
legislative work has been of late years di-
rectly devoted to humanity In trying to rid
society of the scaffold and every other form
of execution. When the electrocution bill
was before the Legislature / voted for it

abolition of capital punishment
General Curtis has another distinction.
He drafted the civil-service Law of New
York, and had it passed, but il finally cost
him 81. 900. as he was the first man tined IN
der Its provisions.

broke out in a storm of applause. After
stirring quartet song. Major Robbins, one
of the three-months volunteers, was intro

his hearers to laughter by witty hits con-
cerning the three-months warriors. His

his partner to stay at home. and they
tossed up penny to decide it. His part

A Day Spent with Old Comrades, Closing
with Campfire.
The thirteenth annual reunion of the
survivors of the Seventh Regiment Indi-
ana Volunteer Infantry. was held yester-
day in the audience room of Memorial
Presbyterian Church. The platform was
elaborately decorated with the national
colors, hung on a temporary frame and
wound about its three supports, which
separately bore the three letters G. A. r.
in gilt Over the center hung a large
portrait of Colonel, afterward General,
Dumont, the first commander of the regi-
ment. Captain Jeffries. president of the
association. was the officer of the day. The
soldiers began to gather early in the morn
ing, and the exercises began with nearly
two hundred veterans present. all wearing
an elegant silk badge bearing a cut of the

the list of battles in which the regiment
had taken part. Captain Banta, of this
city, elected president for the coming year,

PAID OUT TC OLD SOLDIERS
Pension Money Disbursed to the Veterans
of Indiana and Their Families.
1t Goes in Large Amounts to Each County in
the State-Reunior of the Survivors
of the Seventh Regiment
TAKING CARE OF VETERANS.

Great Amount Of Pension Money Disbursed
Yearly I'm This State.
That Republican legislation has been
productive of measures applying directly
to the old soldier and his interests needs
no better proof than the figures the Indiana
pension agency can show. This agency is
next to the largest in the United States,
and the money that is sent out from it
quarterly reaches every part of the State.
An illustration of the great good these pay
ments DO. and all under laws advocated by
Republicans and enacted by Republican
Congresses is shown in the instance of
Brown county. A resident of that county
who was here the other day said this year
the agricultural products of Brown
had failed, but the pension money
came in to relieve the hard
times thus caused. The amount of
pensions paid to old soldiers, widows and
orphans in Brown each year equal the value
of its agricultural products. In Marion
county the payments last year reached
1887 $50 and adding to this it's appOrtion-
ment of the large sum paid out on account
of originals, reissues and increase cases the
great aggregate of $500 900 Is shown.
At the close of the last fiscal year, juno
80. there were 45.776 Indiana pensioners on
the rolls of the agency in this city. and they
drew &C. 296 4S1, the disbursements of the
year going into the ninety-two counties of
the State as follows:
The Indianapolis journal., 1890-09-24

In addition to the above there was dis
bursed some S6O5. .025 to 4, 420 pensioners tenn
porarily residing in various States and Ter
ritories of the United States. Probably
about the same amount was paid from
other agencies to pensioners now residin ng
in Indiana.
During the fiscal year 1889 and 1890,
under President Harrisons administration.
the Indianapolis agency disbursed, in ad-
dition to the annual amount given above
by counties. some s., ,0S2, 500 TO pensioners
of the various counties of the State on ac-
count of original. reissue and increase
cases issued during the year. making a
grand total of SO. .984, ,475. The apportion-
ment of the So. 0S2, $3.50 paid to pensioners on
account of original. reissue aud increase
cases among the various counties will add
nearly so per cent. to the amount paid
annually to pensioners of each county in
the State. Anticipating the allowances
that will be made under act of June "a.
1890. there will be large increase in the
amount paid during the fiscal year ending
June so. 1891. Since June 80 this increase
has already reached nearly 81, ,OO0, COO, and
the amount is growing daily.

What is ScrofuIa

1t is that impurity in the blood, which, accumu-
lating In the glands of the neck. produces un-
slightly Jumps swellings; which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which
developes ulcers In the eyes, ears, or nose often
causing blindness deafness; which is the origin
Of pimples, cancerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed to "humors."
1t is more formidable enemy than consumption
or cancer alone, for scrofula combines the worst
possible features of both. Being the most ancient.
tits the most general of all diseases or affections,
for very few persons are entirely free from 1t.
How can IL be cured? By taking Hoods Sarsa-
pariIa, which, by the cures it has accomplished.
often when other medicines have failed. has
proven itself to be potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease. For all affections of the blood
Hoods Sarsaparilla is uneqpalled and some of the
cures 1t has effected are really wonderful. nyou
suffer from scrofula in any of its various FORMS
be sure to give Hoods Sarsaparilla trial.

tered. Among them was F. C. Dawson,
OF Glenviiie, Ala. There were probably
10, 900 persons on the grounds. and the

the race Dawson drove into the open
space Immediately In the rear OF
the Judges stand, directly opposite
the grand stand. He got ont of his
sulky and in few seconds the great
crowd was startled by the report of a
pisfoI and the sight OF Dawson running
pursued by three men, who we're firing
at him. He turned on his pursuers and
returned the fire. Dawson fell and ex-
pred. The grand stand was de-
serted by the crowd Of ladies. The police
were quickly on the ground
and arrested the thres men
who were Dick and Robert Howard,
brothers, and their brother in-law,
james Blckerstaff. The cause OF the
shooting had its origin in family trouble.
Dawson married and deserted Miss
Howard, sister of the two men named.
The parties all have strolg friends.
The prisoners have secured eminent

to claim they we're justified and ask
the suspension of public opinion. Daw-
