The annual pension blanks are now be-
Ing sent out by the State Auditor. They
are sent direct to the chancery clerks
of the various counties who distribute
them to the applicants. The blanks must
be properly filled up and returned to the
chancery clerk by the first Monday in
September, at which time the county
boards pass on them. The last Legisla-
ture increased the amount of this fund
to S61,50O annually. The last dstribu-
ton gave each pensioner the small pit
tance Of $20.75. If the number increases
in the same ratio as the past few years,
this amount may be expected to be con-
siderably diminished at the coming distri
button. Last year the rolls showed about
5000 of the pensioners entitled to the
fund. The applications must be made in
duplicate--one to be sent to the pension
commissioner in this city. who is the Aud
itor of the State. and the other to be re-
tanned in the office of the chancery clerk.
whose duty it is to lay the same before
the grand juries for investigation.
