FIVE plans selected we each the
two OF the commission, have agreed
upon any one plan. This, however,
is immaterial, for, as las been init
mated, several important matters will
have to bc satisfactorily determined
before a choice is made OF either, and
it may be possible that neither will
be adopted or win prize. 1t is said
that only two Of the successful plans
were of the number approved by Prof.
Ware.

row for this city; the Tacoma firm is
slready represented, and kilograms
state that the remaining three will be
in the field as soon as the New York
man can make tbs journey.
A member OF the Commission as
sures the STANDARD that he believes
every member of the board is acting
fairly and with an earnest desire to adj
vance the work as rapidly as possible.
Probably the impression arose that
this might not be the case, from the
delay at the beginning, which has re-
suited in the larger portion Of last
years appropriation reverting to the
treasury. It is not unusual, however,,
for distrust to exist when such impor-
tant projects are in their incipient
stages, and delay, of necessity inter-
ycnes. When IL ia remembered, hV~
a.--, .naL the location was made by
an overwhelming majority of the voters
OF the State, and the appropriation
bill was passed by decided majority
in both branches OF the Legislature,
enough confidence should be reposed
in the people to feel perfect assurance
that no scheme for reopening cause
OF contention will meet with their ap.
prevail. Schemers might delay, if they
could manipulate some of the officers,
charged with the important trust,
but they never can Illustrate an object
decided by 80 much deliberation as was
the selection of the States official
home.
The same Commissioner informed
the STANDARD that the best of feeling
prevails with the Commission, and he
expects to see work begun early in
spring and be prosecuted as far as the
years appropriation extends.

Whist one pensioner day for a small
district like this meansf There are
probably ten or twelve thousand peo-
pie whose applications would of neces-
sity be filed with our local pension
board. One day for 1900 of pop
ulation would. of course, mean 365 for
the calendar year. One pension day
for each 1900 of population would
give for the aggregate population of

had been placed upon the roll since
the war closed, nearly 90 years ago,
the number would aggregate nearly
the whole population of the United
States.
Our contemporary will readily see
how absurd is the conclusion to be
drawn from its careless expression,
"Only one pensioner" per day. A
bare quotation of correct figures is bad
enough. When we proceed with the
calculation and consider that nearly
the usual span of life has ensued since
the war, and that the list which was
enrolled Immediately after a grateful
nation had provided means for testify
ing its gratitude for the gallant de-
serving soldier, embraced nearly every
body who had received injuries on the
battlefield; that like Jacks bean-stock

now it has assumed phenomenal stat

Charles Saurt, twenty-five years old.

He had taken his life, he wrote, be-
cause he had nothing to eat for thir-

had refused to assist him.
Saurt was a Frenchman, and had lived
in the house for two months. He was
of a quiet, retiring disposition. and was
seen but little by the other tenants in
the house.
At midnight last night he went to
bed, and about 8 o'clock this morning
the woman who conducts the place
noticed smell Of escaping gas assd from

but as there was no response she had

had stopped up all the cracks in the win

gas on full head.
On his bureau were two letters, writ

for murder there. and any penalty short
of hanging should be cheerfully borne
to get rid OF a man like Snaggs."
II didn't know you were acquainted
with him." said Bremner, excitedly.
I'm not but I'm AFFLICTED In the same
way myself"
''Nonsense" cried Bremner; 81 never
even heard you mention your children"
81 mean that I am afflicted with a
friend like Snaggs-it's a daughter in
his case. His name is Gregsby. I'm
even worse OF than you are. for tAis
only daughter Is but five years old. You
are two years ahead OF me. BY and by
the boy will reach years OF discretion,
and he will get there quicker than
Gregsby's girl"
II don't know about that" Bremner
replied, gloomily; girls grow up so
much faster than boys DO"
But they never reach years OF discre-
ton, you know"
II don't believe any son OF Snaggs's
will either. The boys father hasn't, at
any rate. But, l say. Sommers, an Idea
strikes me. Why not introduce snaggs
and Gregsby TO each other?"
THAT wouldn't be bad plan" re-
piled Sommers, cheerfully, and then
we might bet on them. IN back my
man to be the greater bore"
There wouldn't be any use in bet
