THE CAMP FIRE.
SOME FACTS IN REGARD TO TIE SER
VICE PENSION BILL.
Anew Facts.


The shrek set up by the soldier
haters upon the passage OF the Disa-
bility Pension Bill has begun to sub
side. Only the moro bitter and ire
concilable OF the malignapts keep up
the clamor. Those who hate Union
soldiers because they served the I'm
ion, and the subsidized agents OF Brit
ish free trade. still harp away about
''bounty-jumpers," .slulkers" ''elev-
enth-hour big bounty men," 'raven-
Gus pension sharks" and the other
epithets in their vocabulary Of bill
lingsgate. But the good sense and
love OF justice Of the country commend
the measure, and rs its provisions
come to be better understood, 1t rap
idly gains in favor.
Everybody but these blatant ire
concilables now freely admits:
l.. That widow OF man who gave
his life to the preservation Of the coun-
try should be pensioned, and also his
minor children.
2. That II he left no widow, his de-
pendent mother or father should be
pensioned, because his death deprived
them OF his support
8. That the broken-down veterans
OF that terrible war, all OF whom
have passed the meridian OF life,
should be cared for in their old age
and weakness by the great and rich
country they saved at such cost TO
themselves.
A. That the amount required to do
this does not enter into the question.
II it is right it should be done, nc
matter how much it costs, and GER
tainly wealthy prosperous Nation
of 60, 900, 900 people can better afford
to pay $3.50 100000 year for this
worthy purpose, than the war-burden-
ed 25, 100000 in the North could af-
ford to pay, as they did, almost double
that amount per annum to the money
lenders, for years after the war.

Jack Sheppard was arrested again on Mon

half dozen big bundles into the house. They
followed and arrested them and q woman
named Kane. Tho bundles consisted OF 100
shawls, valued ~ s400, that had been stolen
