Yetoes Pension Bills.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The presi-
dent today returned to congress three
private pension bills with vetoes.
Under the bills granting pensions to
Mr.. Amanda Woodcock and Jonathan
Scott, both originating in the house, he
points out that owing to careless
description the pensions could not be
paid.
In the case of the bill granting a
pension to Helen M. Jacobs, the presi-
dent forcibly puts out his objection to
allowing pensions to widows of soldiers
who re-marry.
The veto of the JACOBS pension bill
reads as follows:
ITO the Senate:
L herewith return, without approval,
senate bill No. 149, entitled, An act
granting a pension to Helen M. ia
cobs.' The purpose of this bill is to
grant a pension of $12 per month TO
Helen M. Jacobs of Rochester, Ind,
widow of Ben Oden West 1t appears
from the records of the war depart
ment that Benjamin o. West served
in the Mexican war from January to
November in the year 1S47. The bene-
ficiary named in this will was married
to him in 1850 and he died in 1856. She
was pensioned as his widow and re-
ceived such pension from the date of
her husbands death until April II,
1861. On that day she was married
to William Jacobs, whereupon her
pension ceased, but two minor children
were awarded pensions and continued
| in the receipt of the same until jan
uary, 1873. when the youngest child
| became 16 years of age.
The entire absence of any fixed or
reasonable principle or rule regulat-
ing private pension legislation at this
| time suggests the danger of its near
| approach in many cases to caprice and
| favoritism. Though 1 have. in a num-
Der of instances, deferred to the judg-
ment of congress and refrained from
interposing objections to bills of this
character which seemed TO me to be
of doubtful merit, l am unwilling tc
follow such a wide departure from a
palpably just pension theory and as
sent to the establishment of such ar
unfortunate precedent as this bill in.
wolves.
There is no duty or obligation due
from the government to a soldiers
widow except it be worked out through
the deceased soldier She is pensioneC
only because he served his country ant
because, through his death, she, as hi:
wife. has lost his support. In othel
words, she becomes a beneficiary o
the government, because she is sol
diers widow. When she marrie
again and thus displaces the memor,
of her soldier husband ard surrender
all that belongs to soldier widowhood
she certainly ought not, on the dealt
of her second husband, to be Above,
to claim that she is again the soldier
widow.

HER BONNET.

When meeting bells began to toll
And pious folk began to pass,
She deity tied her bonnet on,
The little, sober meeting lass,
All in her neat, white-curtained room, be-
fore her tiny looking glass.
So nicely, round her lady cheeks,
She smoothed her bands of glossy hair,
And innocently wondered If
Her bonnet did not make her fair;
Then sternly child her foolish heart for
harboring such tancies there.
So square she tied the satin strings,
And set the bows beneath her chin;
Then smiled to see how sweet she looked
Then thought her vanity g, sin,
And she must put away such thoughts
before the sermon should begin.
But, sitting meath the preached word,
Demurely in her fathers pew,
She thought about her bonnet still
Yes. all the parsons sermons through
About its pretty bows and buds which
better than the text she knew.
Yet sitting there with peaceful face,
The reflex of her simple soul,
She looked to be a very saint
And maybe was one, on the whole
Only that her pretty bonnet kept away
the aureoie.

ST. Louis Mayor Had More Pride
Than Sense.
ST. LOUIS, June Both houses of
the municipal assembly of st. Louis
tonight adopted resolution asking out
side aid for the cyclone sufferers The
appeal reads:
Whereas, The terrible calamity has
befallen our city, rendering many of
our citizens destitute and homeless,
and,
Whereas, Assistance has been Of
fered from all parts of this nation for
the relief of those who suffered by the
late cyclone: and,
Whereas, 1t is, in our judgment.
necessary for the comfort and relief
of those unfortunates that we should
accept such assistance from those who
are so kindly disposed therefore, be it
Resolved, By the house of dele
gates, the city council concurring
therein, the representatives of the
people hereby appeal to the generosity
of the public of this country for all
the aid that can be sent in this, the
hour of our distress.
Resolved That all donations be
sent to the mayor or police commits
sion of the city of ST. Louis, or to any
other committee who may have charge
of the relief funds.
Resolved, That we return our
heartfelt thanks to all those who have
SO kindly offered us aid in our hour
of need, and we hereby give them as
surance that anything sent to our city
to be distributed amongst the afflicted
sections of the cyclone will be properly
disbursed: that all receipts shall be
acknowledged through the public press
n nj mr. a
likewise shall be noted and recorded"
At the next meeting an ordinance APP
propriating 100000 from the city treas
ury for the benefit of the sufferers
will be introduced
The loss of life in East ST. Louis,
which has been generally excessively
estimated, still amounts to large pro-
portions. Instead of being nearly 200,
as claimed by many, it is 100 identi-
fed, with two, a man and a woman,
unknown. In addition to this one man
| is missing and eight are so seriously
| injured that they will probably die.
| A reporter carefully revised the list
| of dead today, taking as the basis of
| his calculation, the coroner's records,
| the burial permits and the records OF
the undertaking establishments.
The known list of dead in ST. Louis
today foots up 141 names, all of these
bodies having been recovered. Besides
it is known that thirteen other persons
have been killed in the storm, eight in
the river, whose names are known
and five within the city whose names
! are unknown. None of these bodies
| have been recovered. OF the 141 dead
| bodies recovered in this city, but one
remains unidentified. The list of miss
| ing persons has diminished somewhat
from the number reported yesterday
The list today contains the names OF
Lightweight persons, not including the
eleven said to have been lost from the
steamer Libbie Conger. This reduc.
| ton is due to the fact that number
of names included in yesterdays lis
have been found among those of the
dead. while in a number of cases the
parties reported missing have beer
found alive and we'll.
The house of delegates tonight adop
ted an order appropriating $4,000 fol
cleaning up the streets, which are full
of wreckage.

FIGHTING FROST WITH FOG.

Cal. Frost is the orchard!st's most dreaded
enemy and heretofore when one has been
expected all available help has been kept
busy maintaining brush fires about the

a furnace on a sled. Around the sides
and on the top of the furnace is a wire
netting, into which are packed straw and
other material that will hold moisture
The sled also carries water tank, and
the packing about the furnace is kept
wet. The fire is fed with brush and the
smoke distributed from a number of
chimneys With the smoke and steam a
fog is produced which envelopes the or
chard, keeping up the temperature and
warding off frost.

Defects i'm the oregon.

WASHINGTON, June defects in
the construction of the big battleship
Oregon just completed have recently
come to light and been subject of in
vestigation by the navy department.
1t appears that there have been de-
pantures from the contract require
ments as to the thickness of the
plates used in making up the protec-
tive deck and that the deck has been
made to appear of the proper thickness
by using there concealed plates in the
body of the deck The facts have been
brought to the attention of the de-
partmtant by dissatisfied employees,
but the contractors have agreed to
make good the deficits.
