The binding was wide, but we

is often not as good as shrewd guess

they get old they are almost always

A New Story of General Grant.

It will be recalled that early In the
war the New York Fire Zouaves were
. crack regiment, commanded by Col.
Ellsworth. Every man in the ranks
had been fireman, and 1t was confident
ly believed that Ellsworths command
was able to put down the rebellion
without assistance. The Colonel was
a young man, handsome, gallant, burn
ing with military ardor and thirsting
for military fame. He was as much the
idol Of the North as Ashby was a few
months later the idol of the South. The
Fire Zouaves were the first troops to
march into Alexandria, Va. Their
Colonel vas at their head, and after
the town had surrendered Ellsworth
saw rebel flag flying from hotel.
Instead of ordering a squad to remove
IL he bolted into the house, assembled
the stairway, went out on the roof and
captured the flag; descending he was
confronted by the landlord-one Jack

self was then shot to denth, and the
affair created more sensation than con-

After the war daughter of jackson

To Revise Pension Laws.

The pension measures will undergo a
radical change in some respects if the
bills which Representative r. e. Doane,
a member from Ohio, proposes to in
troduce become law. He intends to
throw the burden of proof upon the
government, and not upon the claim
ant, who, Mr.. Doane says, is generally
In such circumstances that he cannot
gather that which the pension Office
demands. When soldiex en-
listed in the army he was en- mined
and before being accepted wah pro-
nounced sound of body by the csamin-
ing board. This Mr.. Doane proposes
to make prima facie evidence of the
health of the claimant at that
time, and throwing out the
present proof of health at the
period Of enlistment. The affidavit Of
the claimant that he is suffering from
diseases contracted in the line of duty,
supported by the evidence of ply
stefan that he Is in such condition, is to
be considered sufficient to make out a
case. If the government disputes the
claim the burden of proof will rest
upon it, and not upon the soldier.
Another bill will put the wife Of the
soldier on an equal footing with the
soldiers mother. Now the mother de-
pendent upon the services of a son for
support draws pension, regardless of
the number of times she may marry.
The soldiers widow is stopped the mo-
MEM she remarries. Col. Doane's bill
wilrremove this disparity, II it is shown
that the widow has not, at the death Of
her second husband, finacially profted
by the marriage She may not be the
widow of a soldier, but Mr.. Doane holds
that she was the wife of a soldier, and
II destitute, entitled to the protection
the government has promised.
There recently came under Mr..
Doane's observation the case of one
legged soldier who drew a pension, but
who suffered so much from his injuries
that life was unbearable. To end his
misery he committed suicide. Death
from any cause other than that upon
which the pension was granted, stopped
the revenue, and in this case the widow
and six children were left destitute.
This Col. Doane proposes to remedy by
permitting the wife to continue to
draw the pension.

An Example worthy of Emulation.

In Heidelberg all university students
have been excluded from the theaters.
This action was taken In concert by
the city and university authorities be-
cause the students have been taking
possession Of the theaters there and
bowling down every performance they
did not like. The general public con-
cluded that they had some rights
which the university students we're
bound To respect. Hence the prohibit
ton. Perhaps this may serve rs \
useful warning on this side OF the
water.
