where.

There is no doubt but that many pensions
have been cut off since the new regime in the
Pension Office. These new officers own that
they are in duty bound to protect the Govern
ment, and where it can be proven that there
were legal flaws in the granting of pensions,
the same should be cut off and blotted from
the books. Now and then these pensions are
renewed but many pensioners never get any
more money from Uncle Sam
True, this is a serious hardship to the poor
old warehouses;, the expectant widow or the
needy orphan. Whether the policy of the Off
GERS of the Pension Office be wrong or right is
a disputed question; but there is no question
as to the amount of old, sick, debilitated ex-
soldiers. You meet them where'er You go. In
the drugstores 1t is familiar sight to see an
old soldier at the counter waiting for bottle
of Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla. He orders
it. He uses 1t. He knows it gives him
relief-too often IT is tho one wee lit
tie bit of sunshine that crawls into his
dark life. The joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla is
an excellent medicine tor the old, for the
ycung, for the rich, for the poor. 1t cures con-
stipation, dyspepsia, liver complaint, kidney
affection; improves. the tone of your blood;
strengthens and invigorates the system. There
is pleasing sense of relief Immediately after

The steamer Willamette Valley arrived
early this morning from Guaymas ana

furthur particulars of the apprehension of
Oscar Bartels, who ran away from this
port with the schooner Star of Freedom
and the papers of the schooner Nathalie.
sWhen I arrived at La Paz," said the
captain of the Willamette Valley, sword
had just been received there that the
schooner Nathalie had been refused entry
at Cape ST. Lucas, and had been ordered
to San Jose del Cabo for further examina-
ton. The CALL containing the account of
the theft of the Star of Freedom had been
received at La Paz, and Bartels' name was
mentioned in connection with the missing
vessel, and that fact aroused the sus-

Joe Shaw Injured by a Heavy Sea.
Isaacs' Investigation.
Joe Shaw, sailor of the ship Spartan,
was taken ashore yesterday morning by
Boatman Ed Peterson and removed to the
United States Marine Hospital. On the
voyage from the sound Shaw was thrown
on to the deck by big sea and his thigh
bone was broken. The first mate set the
bone, using laths for splints, and those who
saw the mending of the break pronounced
it clever piece of sea surgery.

Collector of Customs at Sitka. The papers
were well thumbed and showed marks of

Viosca, who is our agent at La PaZ. Mr..
Vlosca Immediately communicated the in
formation to the custom-house authorities,
and guard was ordered to San Jose del
Cabo to arrest Bartels and his crew, the
latter consisting of two young men.
"The distance from La PaZ to San Jose
del Cabo is eighty miles as the crow flies
and it took the soldiers three days to make
the trip. Fearing that Bartels might
escape before the arrival OF the soldiers,
the authorities sent an Indian messenger
with warrant for the arrest of the three
men. The Indian covered the ground in
twenty-four hours and had started back to
La Paz before the soldiers arrived at San
this Bartels and the Star of Freedom had
reached La Paz. I telegraphed to
the Merchants Exchange as soon
as l learned that Bartels was at
the cape, but the people at the exchange
were dilatory about receiving my message
and considerable delay was entailed."
Captain Johnson, owner of the Star of
Freedom. has been looking up the record
of Oscar Bartels, and has learned that he is
a trader in other peoples vessels to a con-
siderable extent. The man who ran away
with the Star of Freedom stole the
schooner Achilles from Seattle and went
sealing in her. AS sealer he was great
success, and he turned over his catch to
the Alaskan agents of the Alaska CONNER
cial Company receiving draft on Louis
Sloss for $1,000. Sloss refused to honor the
paper without an Identification, and while
Bartels was waiting for his money the
owner of the vessel dropped into the city
from Ashland, Or. Meantime Bartels had
secured $2400 from A. P. Laurentzen,
giving him mortgage on the vessel. The
owner just got here in time, and he gath
cred in the money the thief had raised, in
Guiding the bulk of the 5000 draft. He
said that he was satisfied and considered
that Bartels had done a good stroke of
business for him, so the charge of barra-
try was dropped and Bartels escaped
prosecution.
Bartels then tried to establish q credit
for himself and was partially successful.
But his reputation soon became known

and he dropped out of sight. He turned
up in San Diego and shortly afterward
the schooner Dawn disappeared, and Bar
tells was counted as missing. 1t is now
believed that Bartels took the Dawn to
Mexico and sold her. If this is so it will
soon be proved. Captain Won Helms saw
the Dawn at Mazatlan and he says that
the vessel is sailing coastwise under the
Mexican flag.
About year and half ago the steam
launch Periwinkle, owned by the light
house department, disappeared from her
moorings at Goat Island and was never
heard from again. Bartels is now cred
tied with the theft of the launch, although
there is no evidence against him.

The league started with fourteen charter

most promising pupils. B. Cooper has
special talent for lightning caricature.

The expenses of the league are nominal
on account of the number OF members and
on account of there being no paid instruc-

Europe, occasionally steps in and lends as

Several complaints have recently been
made against the methods of the local
Justices Courts and the Grand Jury is in
vestigating the charges On last Monday
evening, at the meeting of the Board of
Town Trustees, bill was presented for
Constable's services which the Finance
Committee refused to approve, and it went
over until some information could be Sc
cured concerning the justice of the claim.
One day recently the Town Engineer was
riding his bicycle from work, and, on ac-
count of the muddy streets, was forced to
ride on the sidewalk for short distance in
violation of the town ordinance. The fol-
lowing day he found that three warrants
had been issued charging him with violat-
ing the bicycle ordinance. The Board of
Trustees fail to see how the Constable
should be allowed such latitude in issuing
warrants, and consequently refuse to honor
the bill. Some months ago complaints
were brought against the methods Of the
constables and Justices Courts, but moth
ing terminated from them; but it seems
that something will be done this time.
