CLAIMS FOR PENSIONS REJECTED

Burea Refuses TO Give Washington'a
Needy Veterans Government Aid.
Washington, D. c., Oct. 2s.-The claim
for an increase Of pension OF Captain
David p. Jones Of Tacoma has been
rejected on the ground that the present
rate of SIS month Is sufficient to cover
existing disabilities. Captain Jones was
in command Of company A, 83rd Penn
sylvania volunteers, during the late
war and received shell wound In the
left arm and elbow. There Is ample
evidence before the pension bureau Of
his present disabilities from rheuma-
tism and insomnia and general debility.
but the medical officers have declined to
accept the same as the result Of the
previous wound.
Rudolph B. Scott, alias Charles B.
Scott, who served in the United States
navy during the civil war, has been re-
fused pension both under the general
law and under the act of June ~, 1890.
Representative Hyde of Spokane has
interested himself in this case because
Mr.. Scott is greatly disabled, unable to
earn the support for his family and IN
needy circumstances. Despite all the
showing that has been made to the PEN
sion bureau Mr.. Scott's claim has been
rejected. The ground for rejection,
however, is that the testimony furnish-
ed to the department does not show dis
abilities in pensionable degree. This
desired evidence, it is believed, can be
readily produced, and the pension COM
missioner has promised Representative
Hyde that when such evidence Is fur
nished the matter will be reconsidered.

had heard he had said that any Of his
employees who joined the union would
be discharged, and asked him if it was
SO. He said, I don't give damn what
they join That ended the interview.
Saturday evening. after the inter-
view with Curran, we talked with the
men again. They said that on Friday
he had told them If they joined the
union they would be discharged. and
on Saturday had informed them he
would not work a mixed crew, but
wanted them all to join the militia, as
he could get plenty Of guns from Gov

bers Of the committee took dinner with
the workmen at the Morning mine. OF

were represented. We are going to re-
peat this action right along peaceably,
soliciting the men to join the union,

Origin of the Potato.

When America was discovered the
potato was cultivated in all temperate
parts of South America but not in
Mexico. Hieronymus Carbon, a
Spanish priest, is believed to have
introduced the plant into Europe.
From Spain it went into Italy, and
thence to Belgium. Some years later ii
a introduced into Virginia, and
specimens were brought to Ireland
about 1880. For nearly 100 years it was
cultivated very little in Great Britain,
In 1868 the Royal society urged its
cultivation, but it is only within the last
century and a half that it has been q
common vegetable there. But the
sweet potato was brought into England
in 1868, and was called the common
potato" as early as 1867, when the white
potato was first described in an English
book.-Waupaca Post.

GOOD ROADS.

EX-Gov. Hoard is an ardent advocate
of good roads, and this is the practical
way in which he discusses the matter:
"In my relation to the farmers as a
creamery man [ have very clear oppor-
tunity of seeing how valuable to them
would be a much better state of roads.
A limited calculation would give you, |
think, a new view of this situation.
There are in Wisconsin about 2.5OC
cheese factories and creameries. To
each one of these every morning there
comes IN average of say forty farmers
with their milk. This milk must 90 to
the creamery or factory without fail
every morning in the year, rain Oh
shine, good or bad roads. Now that
number of factories or creameries
represent 100, 900 farmers, who certainly
ought to be interested in the improve
ment of roads from a business stand
point"

REV. KILBURNE WILL REMAIN

a large congregation was present at
the Cong'l church Sabbath morning to
vote on the question of passionate. The
pastor had received a call from New
London and he did not desire to accept
it without first receiving an expression
from his congregation with whom he
has labored for over four years. The
vote was virtually unanimous only five
votes were cast expressing a desire for
a change of pastor. This expression of
approval on the part of his congrega-
ton was accepted in the spirit in which
it was voted and Rev. kilburne decided
to remain. We feel that we voice the
sentiment of the people who worship
at the Congregation church regularly
and those who do occasionally, that a
change is not always attendant with
favorable results, whenyou possess as
efficient worker and able eXpounder
of the gospel of Jesus Christ. What is
needed most is not a change of pastor,
but more united action in furthering
what talent and ability you now possess.

Hulcahay's Lawn Party.

About thirty young people came down
from Stevens Point Thursday evening
last by special train, a jolly company,
and presented their musical comedy
show as above entitled. They were
greeted by a fair audience which would
have been larger only for other enter
tainments that occurred the same
evening. While we were disappointed
in the entertainment as a whole, there
were some parts of it deserving of
credit. The singing by Miss Ethel
klrwan was fine. She has a sweet.
highly cultivated voice and was encored
at every appearance. Little Inez WEIGH
danced the "Highland Fling very
prettily and was called back. Z. O..
Stumpf as "Dennis McCarty," a typical
Irish character, was true to his makeup
played his part well and sang two
selections very creditably. The colored
artists did fairly well, but too manvo of
their jokes came from up on the old,
old shelf. The company claimed to be
at a disadvantage here owing to limited
stage room and the absence of certain
scenery. At the close of the perfor-
nance a social dance was given and all
present were invited to trip the light
fantastic. The Stevens Point Journal
says: "The receipts of the entertain
ment were not quite sufficient to meet
expenses, but the loss, which is a small
one, is fully repaid by the good time
everyone eniOyed."
