The Pennies We Lose.

Small copper coins are lost in such
enormous numbers that the govern
ment is obliged to keep on coming
cents at the rate Of several millions
every month. 1'hoy change hands SO
often as to be subject to u multitude
Of accidents, and, owing to their
small value, they are not taken care
of. This is no cause Of regret to
Uncle Sam, inasmuch as he buys the
pennies in blank from a firm in Con-
pect:cut at the rate Of 1000 for 81.
On reaching the mint in Philadelphia
whence all Of them are issued, they
have merely to be stamped. There
are 119,00o,fO0 old copper pennies
somewhere. Nobody knows what has
become Of them, except that once in q
while a single specimen turns up in
change. A few years ago 100000
bronze 2.cent pieces were set ahoat.
Three millions Of them are still out
standing. Three million Scent nickel
pieces are scattered over the United
States, but it is very rarely that one

QUITTING PENSIONS.
A New Interpretation Of the Disability
Pension Law,

Pension Law.
WASHINGTON, May 2T.-Probsbly the
most important pension decision ever
sent from the office OF the secretary of
the interior to the commissioner of pom
sions was filed to-day. It is believed by
those high in authority in the pension
bureau that it will reduce the payment
of pensions under the act Of June q,
1890, between $15OO0O0O and $20,O00,O0O.
1t involves the repeal of an order
passed by General Rsum and approved
by Assistant Secretary Bussey, and q
return to the language OF the statute
requiring the disability, not Of service
origin, to be such as to prevent the
applicant from earning q support by
manual labor. Secretary Hoke Smith
has been considering the principles in
volved in this decision for several weeks,
and 30 important did he deem it that
when it was called to his attention from
the Pension Board of Appeals, he sub
mitted the question involved to Attor-
ney General Olney and Judge Lochren,
the commissioner Of pensions, both OF
whom concurred in the correctness Of
the decision.
The decision ID in the case Of one
Bennett, who sought q pension under
the old law alleging that while in the
service at Raleigh, N. O., he was pros
trsted by sunstrokeS which resulted in
partial deafness in both ears. His ap-
plicstion was denied on the ground that
while the applicant has slight deafness
as alleged it was not OF sufficient severity
TO warrant any rating. The testimony
showed that Bennett could hear watch
tick at the distance of half an inch from
either ear. Bennett subsequently sp-
piled FOR and received pension Of &12
month under tho act Of June n, 1890.
This act allows q pension ranging from

THE FIRST SUNDAY.
Thousands Of People see the Worlds Fair
After Church Services.

After Church Services.
CHICAGO, May 28-One hundred and
twenty-five thousand people after q
week Of toll took in the fair grounds to,
day, and with souls freed from care
drank in inspiring music, and .feasted
their eyes upon the artistic and natural
beauties Of the White City, while their
minds were improved by studying the
works Of genius and industry. 1t was
the first open Sunday, and it was a
success.
The Sabbath sun was but two hours
old when the people began to come into
the grounds. All modes Of transporta-
tion brought their quotas, and from the
steamer piers and the railroads came
long lines Of people. But the masses did
not begin to arrive until afternoon. Be-
ginning about 2 o'clock the multitudes
hOcked into the grounds at every gate
and by 4 o'clock 10000 people were in'
side the enclosure. The people kept on
coming the entire afternoon and over
flowed the midway plsissnce, whose
every show was crowded, until the at
tendance mark had been elevated to 100,-
600. After dark the grounds were
lighted up and this, together with other
features Of the illumination, attracted
still more, and when the crowds were
about ready to go home conservative
estimate placed their number for the
day and evening at 125,0O0.
It was an orderly, well-dressed crowd,
which evidently was of the opinion that
it had already been kept away from its
property altogether too long, and they
took possession in the name Of "toiler's
day"
"There is no sounder religion" said
Mr.. Armour, "than stand for humanity,
and protest against bigotry."
There were clergymen IN sttendan %,
pillars in the church took delight in
standing up and being counted with the
Sunday openers. But there we're pro-
tests without end. The British exhibit
orS all closed their displays and 30 did
those from Canada and New South
Wales. Each Of the New England states
locked their state building, and so did
Missouri, but Kansas stood up to be
counted alongside of Mr.. Armour and
his Sunday school proteges.
The doors Of fifteen state and terri
tOrial buildings were locked for this day
only, and visitors were generally in
formed to that effect by cards. Missouri,
Delaware, New York, Virginia, West
Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Dakota,
New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New
Jersey, Connecticut, Maryland and
were among the buildings
which the people obtained only an out
side view Of. Utah had the closed sign
On its door, and North Dakota added 10 ]

it's announcement the invitation, "Comt
on Monday" On the doors of the Bay
state house was the following type
written legend: "By order Of the great
and general court Of Massachusetts this
building is closed on the Lords day
Signed, E. @. Hovey, executive com
missioner.
On the elevated lawn in front of this
building gardener worked all day plant
ing beds Of beautiful pansies. When
asked if he was employed by the Worlds
Fair board Of Massachusetts, to labor on
Sunday at the state building, the old
man said he was working for a Massa-
chusetts florist who was exhibiting the
pRnsy beds, and that Commissioner
Hovey had not told him to stop.
He added the information that there
was work going on inside the build
ing, and, being Of European birth, he ex-
claimed: "This Sunday closing business
is all wrong. It's frRnd."
The Maine commissioners had q sign
outside their building which read: "Open
to Maine visitors and their friends only, ,"
but everybody who pleased entered, ig-
noring the attempt at exclusiveness
without absolute closing.
The influence Of the ANGLICAN church
was seen by the visitors who desired to
enter the buildings erected by Great
Britain and her msjesty's colonies. All
were closed tight and no person could
be seen inside, which was not the case
with the "closed" state buildings. The
great carved oak doors Of Victoria house
were shut, although the union jack
floated from the roof. Csnads's flag was
flying also, but the doors were closed
and not even q sign was put out for
visitors to read. New South Wales sup
plementsd the "closed to-day" sign with
the following unnecessary words "keep
out; this means you" Even at the
India building, which is chiefly q pri-
vate commercial enterprise, the closed
sign was hung out.
Machinery hall, under whose domes
the Ssbbstsrsns think the acme Of
Sabbath breaking is sheltered, was q
quiet place. Two or three
high speed, and but one big snRine-s
all that ran during the
day, to furnish the power necessary to
run the fair, and their hum could
scarcely be heard 100 feet away. The
crowd in this building was not very
srge, but every other department struc-
ture was jammed. Columbia avenue in
Manufacturers and the main sisles in
and Fisheries were
crowded all day, and it was with much
spectator could force pas
Jage. AS indicative OF the character of
he crowd, it may be stated that the fine
Grts building held the greatest multi
tude. Every salon was packed and the
boyers were jammed by quiet and Or
1erly crowd OF picture lovers.

$6 to $l2 per month, to ex-soldiers or
sailors suffering from any disability Of
permanent character, not the result of
their own vicious habits, which incapacl-
tRtes them from the performance Of
manual labor in such degree as to
render them unable to earn q support.
The inability to earn support is there
fore made the basis of the law. During
Commissioner Rsum's administration an
order was issued, known as order 164,
which directed that all claims for pen
sion under the acts Of June 27, 1890,
should be rated the same az like
disabilities Of service origin and that
all cases showing apensionable disability
which, il OF service origin, would be
rated at or above $16 q month, should
be rated at S12 a month. The only re-
quirement to obtain pension under the
law applicable to pensions OF service
origin is disability by reason of wounds
received or disease contracted while in
the service and in~line Of duty.
"Incapacity to perform manual labor"
says the secretary, "which is the foun-
dGtion to the right to pension under the
act OF June 27, 1890, fixes an entirely
different standard Of disability from that
just mentioned, contained in the revised
statutes, covering injuries of service
origin. Disabilities incurred while in
actual service and incspscity coming
upon applicant long after service ceases
are made by the law to stand upon an
entirely different footing. Those in
CURED during service in line of duty are
without regard to capacity

out reference to this condition. Dis
abilities resulting from causes other
than OF service origin are only pension
able when capacity to labor joins with
ncapacity to earn support, and grades

When by order No. 164 it
vas declared that disabilities under the
Ict Of June q, 1890, should be rated as

which governed the rating under the act
