RIGHTS OF OLU SOLDIERS.
A Case of Considerable Interest to vet-
Grams Of Minnesota.

Grams Of Minnesota.
MI<,%AIOLIs, March GA case with
out precedent i'll this state, with a single
precednt i'll the United States, and one
that will prove of vital int est to the
veterans OF the late war throughout
Minnesota at least, is nov pending i'll
the district court. The title Of this case
is Cnar.es Venables against Henry A.
Castle. John A. Gilman, Lucius F. Hub
bard. l.. L.. Baxter, J. Fl. Upham,
J. r. Parshall md William Dun
nington. as trustees OF the Min
nesota Soldiers Home, and its effect
will be to determine the rights of the
trustees and managers Of the Soldiers
Home as to compelling the inmates Of
that institution to turn over to the com
mon fund for the maintenance of the
home a certain proportion of the pension
allowed them by the United State gov
eminent, as has been the custom in the
past.
Was DishonOrably Discha ged.
1t is now one of the rules of the home
that any of its wards or beneticiaries re-
ceiving pensions from the government
shall turn over to the authorities OF the
home all i'll excess of "a per month of
the money thus received by them. The
plaintiff, Venables, is q former member
of the home, who rebelled against this
rule. and in consequence was dishonor-
ably discharged, and his suit is brought
to compel the authorities to reinstate
him.
An Alternative Writ.
Judge Russell issued an alternative
writ of mandamus, requiring the de-
PENDANTS to appear and show cause why
q peremprory writ should not be issued
as asked.
The only similar case recorded in the
courts of the country is II i'll Michi-
gan, in which the attorneys for the
plaintiff state that the supreme court of
that state held that the pensioner had
no right to assign or otherwise dispose
| of his pension, and that the home had
no right to take it away from him.

is still its loyal friend and delights TO
hear of the success of Yale students in
sports OF studies.
Rev. Bissell was born in Middlefeld,
Mass, in 1907. He went with his faith
er's family to Ohio in 1905, and attend
ed school at intervals and helped his
father to make a home in the forests.
In 1916. determining on q better educa'
ton, he made his way on foot ana
alone to Yale College. There, with but
a few dollars on which to commence
his college life, he completed the fuiI
course, with no aid save his W head
and hands. He graduated with honor
in 1873. Soon after returning to MS
home he took charge of the COngrega-
tiOnal Church ut Twinsburg, and, eA-
cept for a few years spent as pastor OF
other nearby charges, Twinsburg has
since been his home. His aged wire Is
still living.
