DIED.

Ella Lillian, eldest daughter of
Rev. Il. T. and Mrs. Il. L. (Brown)
Alexander of Osaka, Japan, died
May 23rd. 1892. We for the
the sake of friends in Tennessee
and elsewhere give extracts from
letters of sympathy written to her
parens after her death. These will
serve to show something of her
character and of the estimation in
which she was held by those who
knew her. A. missionary lady who
had been her Sunday Scool teacher
for many years wrote as follows:
81 have not the slightest doubt in
my own mind that she was sim
cere christian, judging from her
spiritually wise answers in Sunday
School, her earnest prayers in the
Christian Endeavor Society. The
minutes of the meetings of the So
ciety as its Secretary, she kept, and
which by this thoughtfullness and
apprehension Of sacred things often
surprised me, and by the unsur-
passing sweetness Of disposition

CELESTIAL CERTIFICATES SOLD.
A Newspaper Reporter Buys One and TheI
Writes Up the Fraud.

SAN FRANCISCO July H.-The Examiner this
morning has nine-column article charging
that certificates OF Chinese who may wish
to land in this country are being disposed of
here in violation of the Chinese restriction
law. That paper has in its possession a cer-
tificate purchased from Hy Chang, a Chinese
lawyer of this city, who has been student
at both Yale and Columbia Colleges, who
agreed for $l09 on delivery of certificate and
sl40 on the safe entry into this country of
the Chinese holding the certificate, to pro-
cure complete identification under the
terms of the law of any Chinese who may de-
sire to land.
In this case a mythical parsonage was
chosen by the Examiner, but was made to
appear in the certificate, which bears the
seal of the Chinese Consulate as Ow Yang
Gum Tong. an opium merchant on his way
to China, but who intended returning to the
United States. Chang, in his negotiations
with the newspaper reporter who concealed
his identity, intlmated that other Chinese
and some of the customs officials were impli-
Gated in the Sc transactions.

Drawing Pensions for Service in the
War of 1919.
Pension Agent 81. H. Bengough yester-
day finished his annual report for the fiscal
year ending June 80, and forwarded it to
| Commissioner Raum. There were, at that
/ date, Al ,633 pensioners on the rolls. At
the rate per month which they were then
receiving it would require S., 54S, ,909 to pay
! them during the current year, but Agent
Bengough estimates that this amount is
s., 800 900 above what will be required for
the year ending June 80, 1898. During the
year II, 245 original pensions were granted
through the Pittsburg office, and their first
payments amounted to 81, S32, 45O 03. Many
of these new cases were of long standing,
and there were large payments for back
time. There were 4,002 pensions increased,
the net increase in those cases amounting
to 1925, 334 81.
The classes to which the various pension
ers belong are as follows: Soldiers of the
civil war, 80, 455; widows of soldiers of the
civil war, 5,073; mothers, 1865; fathers, 546;
minor. children drawing through guardians,
l03; soldiers of the second war with Eng
land, 4; widows of such soldiers, 1856; sol
dlers OF the Mexican war, lSl; WIDOWS OF
such soldiers, LOG, and there is one pen
soner who is a sister of soldier of the
Revolution. With the widows of soldiers
there are 2,564 children under the age of 16,
who draw 50 month. During the year
4, 1875 names were stricken from the roll,
mostly as the result of death. The annual
value of tEeir pensions is 1896, ,217. Many
of them were men totally or seriously dis
abled, and they received high rate Of pay.
The actual amount paid out at the Pitts
burg office during the year was $780,
2S3 35. Two pensioners receive S100 per
month, granted by special acts of Congress.
There are 12O pensioners who are on the
total disability list and receive S72 per
month.
The residences of the pensioners are as
follows: Pennsylvania, SO, 500; Ohio, 3S2;
New York, 3S1; West Virginia, 146; Kan
sas, 1872; Minnesota, 129; Canada, 8; Ire

THE WORLDS FAIR TOURNAMENT

THE WORLDS FAIR TOURNAMENT.
We are pleased to notice in our foreign ex.
changes that the players OF Great Britain
are interesting themselves in the Worlds
Fair tournament, to be held in Chicago dur
in~ 1893. Mr.. Jordan, the youthful cham pion
OF England, has signified his willingness to
enter, with eX-Champion Martins, and the
subject is now being agltated generally, and
and we hope to see representation of the
best talent OF the world in the tournament.
so that its results may show who are the
strongest players of the world, and to ac-
complish this we think inducements should
be offered to such men as James Searight of
Glasgow; Richard Jordan, of Edinburgh,
Scotland, and Alfred Jordan, of London,
front within the last year. A. Jordan has
defeated all England; r. Jordan has de-
frated the worlds champion, and Mr. Sea-
right has defeated player who was a strong
tfonal match. These three youthful
champions would be great at
traction and powerful drawing card,
and would create an intense interest
throughout the world. 1t is to the Young
and rising players we have to look Tor
developement of the game. 1t is the same
in every line of sport. While Wyllfe and
Martins would give dignity to the tourna-
ment yet the great interest of the lovers of
the game would center in tho youngsters
and how they would come out of the fight
who are in the prime OF manhood and who
have been tried in many battles.

result will show which nation has the
