Soldiers 8moset.
Hurry Up Papa's Pension.

Many sad story could be fished out
OF the jackets that cover the million and
half claims in the files of the pension
bureau. If the pleading letters, couched
in the most pitiful language, are to be
believed, but for the existing pension
laws the poorhouses of the land would
be overlooking with the old soldiers
and their families. Poverty, sickness
and distress become an old story to the
pension office clerk, whose main con-
Germ in the rush of business is to see
whether the tale of woe " is sworn to.
and whether the commissioners yell
low (speciaD slip is strapped to the
Jacket. Occasionally, however, letter
is so worded as to strike tender spot
in the clerks heart, that ceases to ache
only when he has made such disposi-
ton of the claim as its condition war
rants, and becomes interested in an
other. Such one was that received a
few days ago from young girl in Mas
sachusetts. 1t reads as follows: 4" am
little girl fourteen years old, and nv
papa is 80 poor l have to live away
from home, for he is so sickly that he
is not able to work. The town has had
to help him about one hundred dollars
worth in the last seven months. Now
they have done so much that they are
trying to get him to go to the poorfarm,
and he is trying to get them to wait,
thinking that he will get his pension.
But he is trying to wait patiently, while
they are trying hard to make him 90 to
the poorhouse. Now, don't want nv
papa to go there. He is good father
to his children, and it seems too bad to
have him go there. Now, can't there
be some way to hurry it along? NV
papa says it won't do any good to hurry
you up, but l thought would do what
l could to help him. He is so poor and
sickly is the reason write this, and so
good TO u.s." This letter proved even
better than complicated files slip
in fastening the adjudication of the
claim, for the attention of the chief
of division was called to it, and he i'm
mediately drew the claim from the files
and placed it in the hands of an ex-
aminer. 1t was found to be ready for
action, and the little girl was at once
notified over the commissioners sigma
ture that her fathers claim had been
submitted to the board of review. In
very short time her father will receive
a check for about $500, which should
keep the wolf from the door for several
months to come Washington Post.

A Feature of the Washington
Encampment.

One of the most novel and interesting
features of the annual encampment of
the Grand Army Of the Republic to be
held in Washington, next Septen Der,
will be the arrangement made to facili-
tate the reunion of comrades who
served in the same military or naval
subdivision. AT previous encampmo nts
it has been a matter of great diff
Guilty for former comrades to find each
other, and while reunions have been
announced and places designated for
holding them, they have generally been
in school-houses and other places widely
scattered and difficult for strangers to
find. 1t is proposed to remedy all this
by an original and easily practicable
arrangement. The former army and
navy of the United States will be di-
vided into thirty-two corps-one for
each of the old twenty-five infantry
corps, one for the sailors and marines,
one each for the cavalry and artillery of
the army of the Potomac, one for the
cavalry of the military division of the
Mississippi, one for the colored troops,
one for eX-prisoners of war and one for
the large number of organizations which
were not Attached 10 corps. Inc large,
level lawn south of the Executive man
sion, known as the white lot, will be
taken for the erection of large wall tents
for corps headquarters and smaller ones
for division and brigade headquarters.
There will be four large tents, each
holding 5000 persons, for the corps re-
unions. AT the different headquarters
will be the well-known corps, division
and brigade flags of thirty years ago.
In the middle of the lot will be tall
staff flying garrison flag, where will
also be posted battery of regular artil-
lery and several companies of infantry
or foot artillery, and probably the band
of the artillery regiment stationed at
Washington barracks; all constituting
a genuine garrison.

Pennsylvania commandery, with over
$1,000 members, subscribes 100000.
1t is expected that citizens of Phila-

Mexic0's Sewerage.

Mayor Lupton and City Engineer
Rodgers are home from Clinton, Mo-,

ed, and say hat there is no question
but that a21-inch sewer will be plen-

only Is inches in diameter and an
swer all purposes. They examined
the system thoroughly and say there
is no danger of a nuisance beingcreat-
ed where the sewer empties in the
suburbs of Mexico. Clinton has three
sewers and no nuisance is made or
complaint filed, although the point
where they empty is much closes to
residences than in Mexico. The work
on the Mexico sewers will be begun
as soon as possible. Advertisements
will be published for bids by contrac-

a finish before the ground freezes.
