Painful Accident.

This morning Miss Gertie Marx
went to the Cotton Belt depot with
her sister, Miss Bertha, who was go
ing to Pine Bluff. While waiting for
the train to start, she laid her hand
on a switch plate, and the train, be-
ginning to move, the leaver of the
switch was thrown, MASKING the mid
die finger on the right hand terribly.
DR.. Lightfoot was called at once, and
gave the wounded hand the proper
attention, and we are glad to state
that Miss Gertie is suffering as little
as could be expected.
While very painful, the wound is
not such as to require the amputation
Of the finger, and we hope soon to
note that Miss Gertie will be entirely
out Of pain, and her hand well as ever.

THE PENSION ROBBERY.
Democrats to be Hampered with
Heavy DEFICIENCIES.

The United States is paying yearly,
nearly one hundred and fifty millions
of dollars in pensions to horde of
ex-Union soldiers, who were paid for
their services while acting as soldiers.
This immense sum is nearly double as
much as Germany pays for standing
army Of nearly million active SOL
diers. 1t is stated on good authority
that there are thousands Of fraudulent
pensioners
The following late news from Wash
ington shows the bankrupt condition
of the national treasury, as left by the
Republicans, with big deficit Of mil
Lions to hamper Democracy, on taking
charge of affairs next year.
A call will be issued soon for a
meeting of the house committee on
appropriations at noon Monday, Nov.
2S next. This VIII give the committee
about weeks time in which to pre-
pare some of the regular annual ap.
preparation bills for the action of con-
gress when it meets for the second
session. II is the purpose to push
rapidly all these measures for the
maintenance of the government next
year, and as the treasury department
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1892-11-17

has promised to submit estimates for
the district of Columbia, pension and
fertilization appropriation bills by
Nov. 2S, there seems to be no good
reason why the house should not have
one at least of these appropriation
bills ready for action as soon as it
meets. Exceedingly heavy payments
made by the treasury in the first
quarter period of the fiscal year caus-
ed some dismay among the members
of the appropriation committee. For
the first few months of the year these
payments have exceeded by $16,000,-
900 the expenditures for the cor
responding period of the preceding
year, which means total increase
for the present year of $48,000,000,
while the appropriations for the year
are only $12,000,000 greater. than the
appropriations for last year. In plain
English, that means Gf estimates of the
committee hold good a deficiency ac-
count of pensions of $36,000,000
which viii have to be met by Congress
at the next session, in addition to the
appropriations for pensions for the
next fiscal year of certainly not less
than $150,000,000. So the total ap-
preparations that Congress must make
for pensions must necessarily aggre-
gate not less than $168,000,000. With
this enormous sum added to other APP
preparations necessary to carry on the
government, and decreased importa-
tions (and consequently expected to
result from agitation of the tariff ques-
ton, it will be seen the appropriation
committee has good reason to feel
dismayed at the outlook, and doubt
their ability to prevent deficiency in
the national account.

THE MISSING SCRIP.

Another item, the discovery Of
which created quite sensation, re-
lates to the missing scrip. The Mas
ter has given great deal Of space to
this part of the investigation, in his
report, and incorporates valuable and
interesting testimony from which he
draws his conclusions. Evidence adj
duced go to prove that this missing
scrip belongs rightfully to the State,
and that it was taken by Bay and he
and Woodruff disposed Of it.
This is an ugly business all the way
through, and the guilty parties should
certainly be punished.

A LUCKY MAN.
TEXARKANA TO THE FRONT A
SECOND TIME.
A Texarkana Man Draws Two Thous-
and Five Hundred Dollars
for Fifty Cents.

When a man is lucky he can smile
like Democrats, now. We were out
yesterday hunting news, and were
agreeably surprised when we heard
that one of our Texarkana boys had
drawn out of the lottery company at
Guidad Juarez, Mexico, the sum of
two thousand five hundred dollars.
Upon hearing this news, we imme-
diately interviewed Uncle Sam Falk,
upon the subject. Uncle Sam assured
us that this was SO, and referred us to
Mr.. j. A. Patching, who is a clerk in
the motive power department in the
Cotton Belt Offices here. When we
found the gentleman he wore a smile
that would put a Kentucky Colonel
into good humor. We learned the
following facts from him: That he
ordered through Uncle Sam Falk,
ticket on the Mexican Lottery Com
pany, of Guidad, Juarez, Mexico,
which only cost him the small sum Of
fifty cents, and that in return his
ticket drew him twenty-five hundred
dollars. Mr.. Patching intends to buy
him beautiful residence, so he can
successfully cage his first prize.
The Grand Loteria Juarez Company
is one Of the best in the world Their
certificate of deposit shows this to be
true. The Mexican International
Banking Company has deposited in
the Banco National de Mexico, Branch
in chihuahua, one hundred thousand
dollars, in American gold coin to the
credit and order of themselves, which
will be subject to draft at all times, to
pay prizes that are drawn.
Uncle Sam Falk represents them
mere. The 1st National Bank cashed
j. A. Patching's ticket without word,
which shows that the Gran Loteria
Juarez Company is as solid as the
Bank of England. If you wish to try
your luck, Uncle Sam will send in
your order. The next regular draw
ing will take place on Wednesday,
December the 7th, 1892. Uncle Sam
Falk is so happy over his lucky tick
cts, that he does not know what to do.
About forty thousand dollars has been
drawn out of the same company here.
by those holding tickets sold by him
since January last Just think of q
fifty cent ticket drawing twenty-five
hundred dollars.

mand Of himself he is master Of his
