DiShOnOymg the Pension ROA

Among the names recently added
to the pension rolls were $50 To-day
men from Ohio, whose cases had
been thrown out on investigation
during Tanners administration Of
the bureau. Their war experiences
were confined to an outing in and
about Washington, where they never
saw a rebel, never heard the whistle
of a bullet and were never even sick,
but they have somehow managed to
place themselves IN the way of being
supported by the people for the rest
of their lives. The new law hit them
just right, apparently. The choking
of the pension roll with cases like
those tend to make it anything but
"roll Of honor. .''-Springfeld Re

A WRITER in Colman's Rurat
World says that the immerorlal Gus
tom of farmers in discardlng the end
grains of corn when selecting seed
and only planting grains from the
middle Of the ears is the cause OF the
almost universal failure of corn to
I'LL out plump at the ends. He says
that in order to get a full de-
veIoped ear, tnat the end grains are
just as necessary for good crop as
those from any other part of the ear.

PRESIDENT HARRIsoN's home or
gan, the Indianapolis Journal, says:
Any persons who doubts President
HarrIson's popularity with the peO-
pie should ask the opinion of rail
road men who have accompanied the
presidential train on his trip. They
say the entire journey was a contlnu-
Gus ovation and that everywhere
Harrisun's denomination was ''In the
air."
The presidents denomination,
then, just as has been expected,
hangs as high as the traditional
goose. And it will continue in the
air unless perchance Blame makes up
his mind to lower it to the earth.

AN exchange says: 1t Is a pity
that more guiena fowls are not kept
by farmers. Their quaint call and
shy habits show that tney are not far
removed from game birds, which al.
most everywhere are disappearing.
No kind of fowls lay so many eggs.
Their meat is dark colored and to
those unaccustomed to game it ia
sometimes not thought good; but
wild flavor is just what very many
like, and more would If they tired
to overcome prejudice. The guinea
fowl in any yard is one of the best
defences of domestic fowls from
hawks or other feathered enemies.
They see such marauders very quick
ly, ank instantly give the warning
which the instinct of every bird in
the yard has taught it to recognize
aad heed.

The uncertainty of criminal pros

THE uncertainty of criminal pros
ecutlons are becoming more appar-
ent every day. The recent trial OF
John and Alexander McKInzie, at
Fulton, is another striking example
oil this fact. These parties were
tried once in Randolph county for
the same offense. One Of the par
ties received sentence Of 81 years
and the other Is years in the peni-
tentiary. A new trial was granted
and a change of venue taken to Gala
way comfy. At the trial of the case
m Fulton the other day John was
sentenced to the penitentiary for two
years and the old man ives discbarg-
ed. The people of Randolph feel in
dignant, as the crime occurred In
chat county and was an atroclous
murder.

COL. SWITLER'S TASK.
A Warfare on the hdiscyiminate
Use Of Military Titles.

Col. W. F. Switzler, editor Of the
Columbia Salesman, has commence
ed warfare on the indiscriminate
use of military titles in those who
never smellPd gun-powder. Re
ferring to the customary prefix to
his own name he says he was called
colonel before the Mexican war. He
gives some very good reasons why
the title of colonel should only be
applied TO men who hold or held the
rank indicated In some military or
ganization.
There is logic In the argument of
Colonel Switzler, but we fear that 1t
it will not be needed. A rising
young politician and lawyer IN this
state was introduced to lady as
Col.--. The lady remarked
that the gentleman was evidently
too yonng to have been IN the
army, and asked how he came to ac-
qulre the title. Madam" said he,
Il was born a colonel" And so Col.
Switzler will find any number Of
such cases. Comparatively few of
the politicians bearing military til
ties acquired them in military serv-
ice. Many of them were not IN the
army, and many of those who were
have been promoted since peace was
declared. Eastern papers have made
many frppant remarks about all the
Missouri privates being killed during
the war, only the colonels surviving,
but this has not tended to discourage
those who believe that military titles
may properly be conferred on prom
inent politicians in defiance of milf
itary code. Col. Switzler is old
enough to know better than to at
tack such a common and popular
custom.-Jeferson CITY Tribune.
