Pensioners Never Die.

According to the enlistment rolls Of
the War Department, there were
2,700,000 men enlisted during the
whole of the war; yet, after all these
years, we would be made to believe
that one and a half millions remain
alive, of the total enlistments. After
deducting the killed or those who died
from disease and the number who
have since died, it is an utter impos-
sibility for there to be 5000 veter-
ans of the war remaining.

The Rev. Minot j. Savage, when
asked for a tribute to the memory OF
Phillips Brooks, said: Words are
too weak to express the feelings OF

and wrote the following tender
sonnet:

Beyond one thought of blessing or of ban,
Save of thy Master, whose great les on ran
"Ihe great are they who eeIve," so nov, in

All churches are one church in loving heed
Of thy great life wrought on thy Masters plan
As we stand in the shadow thy death,
How petty all the poor distinctions seem
That would fence off the human and divine!

Large as Gods love. this human nope aid

En-. YELLOWSTONE JoURNAL:-
Will you be kind enough to permit
me to use a little space in your paper for
the purpose of denying the truth Of Ger
tain reports that have been circulated as
to the cause Of the death of the adopted
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Doyle Of
Powder river, formerly Stephen
Younger: There having been no sus-
picious circumstances connected with
the death; no coroner's inquest was held.
y short time after the death the report
that the boy was mistreated and that
his death was occasiOned by such i'll
treatment. and a failure t. provide pro
vide properfood. clothing and shelter was
generally circulated. 1t is the urpos
OF this article to deny the truth of such
report or reports and in this connection
to say that. after full investigation Of all
the facts and circumstances / find that
the boy died from natural causes. I
have in my possession letters. from seven
parties cOnversant with such
facts. and the consensus Of opinion is
that the boy was at all times well treat
ed and properly care for.
