increasing at gratifying rate and
that there is at present no demand
for gold for shipment abroad. Sec
retary Morton expresses the opinion
that from now on our cereals will take
the place of the gold which we have
been shipping to Europe, and the fact
that the large amount of gold which
the Rothschilds contracted to furnish
Austria has all been delivered is also
thought to have been factor in caus-
ing cessation in the Eurpean demand
for gold.

President of a large number of PEN
sions illegally granted, and gives
names, dates, and the number of the
applications, so that his statements
may be easily verified. He says that
thousands of pensions have been lille

confined to cases in which the law
was wrongfully construed, but include
an enormous number granted in di-
rect violation of law. Mr.. Burnett
concludes by expressing the belief that
at least $50,000000 a year can be
saved by thorough and rigid purg-
ing and revision of the pension rolls.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 10, 1913.
President Cleveland is deeply in
terested in the efforts that are being
made to ascertain if the carelessness
of any person was responsible for the
horrible tragedy in Ford's old theater,
which killed 81 and injured sixty-odd
clerks in the Records and Pension
office of the War Department, al
though he has wisely refrained from
taking any action that might be con-
sidered as interfering with the prop
erly constituted authorities now ell
gagged in that task. Great pressure is
being brought to bear on him to sus-
pend or remove Col. Ainsworth, the
army officer who is at the head of
that Office, and upon whom a great
many people are disposed to place the
blame, but Mr.. Cleveland's idea of
fair play is such that it is not proba-
BILE that he will take any action until
there is more tangible evidence of
Col. Ainsworth's guilt than public
clamor for making him a scapegoat.
If he be guilty surely that fact can
hardly escape the coroner's jury now
investigating, and the army court of
inquiry which will take the matter
up at the close of the inquest.

"There is a young man in Mobile"
said Colonel Robert McEachin Of Win
chester, Va, "who has cause to remeni-
Der Amelie Rives twice a year. When
the now distinguished lady was a little
girl and lived in that city, she became
fondly attached to a newsboy who cried
out his papers every morning in the
neighborhood in which she lived. She
met him one day and a friendship sprang
up between them that has lasted TO the
present time, After the boys stock Of
papers were sold in the morning he would
call for the pretty little blue eyed miss,
and they would take long strolls down
Prosecute road, plucking the orange bios
SONS and the magnolia blooms. They
soon got to be familiar figures on Gov
eminent street, as they would walk
along that busy thoroughfare with the
young girls head garlanded with wreaths
of beautiful flowers and the little boys
arms filled with vines and e%vergreens.
Then Miss Rives moved far away into Vir-
ginia, but she never forgot her newsboy
friend, for it was her custom almost
daily to write him. The boy met with a
misfortune some years ago which Grip
pied him for life. He is poor, but his
purse is twice a year replenished by a
postof1ce order from Mrs. Chanler. One
of these arrives in Mobile on his birth
day, which is in June, and the other on
Christmas day."-St. Louis Republic.

bers at last became so dangerous, and
the peril of their attacks so serious to
travellers of all kinds, as we'll as to the
postmen, that the government passed a
law making highway robbery an offense
punishable by the death of the criminal
and the coniscation of all his property.
But robberies still occurred.
