The Pension Business.

The Commissioner of Pensions has
submitted his annual report to the
Secretary of the Interior. 1t shows
that on June Both, 1894. there were
969,444 pensioners, and during the
year 39.195 new pensions were granted
and 4,O26, whose names had been
dropped, restored. There were 27,86l
deaths and 14,575 pensioners dropped
from the rolls during the year, MAX
ing the number on the rolls June 80,
1895, 970,524, an increase during the
year of $50.
Ii no change is made in the pen
sion laws the Commissioners thinks
that the appropriation of S140,O0O,OOO
will be sufficient for the payment of
pensions for the current fiscal year.
The estimates for the next year are
the same as for the present year $780,
100000.
The Commissioner says that the
work of the Board of Revision has
been beneficial in disseminating lille.
gal pensions and discouraging the
filing Of claims without merit, and the
work of the law division was excellent
] in detecting illegal practices among
pension attorneys. Two hundred
and nmety-four persons were convict.
ed, the most important being attorneys
with large pension clientage.
The act of March 81, 1895, increas-
ing the rate of certain pensioners sc
per month made an increase OF S61,-
500 annually In the payment of pen
sions and the act of March, 1893, which
forbade the payment of pensions to
non residents Of the United States
hes decreased the payments during
the last four months of 1895 about
S275,OOO.
Notwithstanding there we're 27,S61
deaths in the fiscal year which ended
June 30, 1896, the increase of pension
ers during that year was $50. 1t is
probable, as some of the veterans
marry young women, that there will
! be pensions paid the widows of veter
ans Of the war at the close of the

Shook up the Vatican.

ROME, Nov. IA severe and pro-
longed earthquake shock was felt here
at 4:38 o'clock this morning. Many
houses swayed badly, walls cracked,
pictures fell from the walls, people
ran panic stricken into the streets,
and serious disaster was apprehended
Happily the first shock ended the
subterraneous disturbance.
Some idea of the alarm created may
be gathered from the fact that the
prison of Regime Coli was SO badly
shaken that the terrified prisoners
broke into open revolt and tried to
escape. Troops from neighboring
barracks were summoned and the
prisoners were driven back at the
point of bayonets. The Vatican
building was severely shaken up, but
the Pope was perfectly tranquil. He
sent to the nearest police station to
inquire if there had been any loss of
life or serious damage.

The Farmer Boys.

We took a littI outing the other day
and drove down Rapid Valley to relieve
our mind OF some OF the ponderous bur-
dens that were weighing upon it in our
scramble to keep the wolf from getting
between us and our grub pile. 1t was a
revelation to us to see what a change
had been wrought in the valley duriug
the past few years by the application OF
irrigation. While driving down this
beautiful little valley q vivid picture of
the past kept coming and going before
us-a picture OF the old farm and the
methods used in the days when we
plowed and planted corn and potatoes
among the stump hills and mosquito
swamps of u state, Yes and we
could but compare the life OF the farmer
boy in RAPID Valley and that oiour own
experience in that capacity. It became
necessary for us to quit school before
the term closed in the ..spring in order
that we might assist in cutting hazel
brush and saplings from the patch of

be against this idea as horse meat don't
suit the taste OF man; the cause Of this
is that the horse always has been used
for hard work. Consequently the meat
becomes tough and unfit to eat. We

they had pleaded guilty had frequently
been punished with death in that section

penalty for cattle stealing to nine years
was not vet lneffect. He then sentenced
Clark and Jackson to the penitentiary
