Too Much Politics in Pensions.
From the Louisville Post (Dem.).

There has never been any hostility to
pensions for federal soldiers who were
disabled in the service OF the country
where the disability was actually Incurred
In the service or was the result Of the
service. No one who has not studied the
question has any conception Of the amount
of fraud and rascality that Is perpetrated
In the granting OF pensions. The trouble
about II has been that the pension office
hasbeen inside politica9 machine and or
Grated as such IN a great measure ever
since the war.

The chances are that We shall see a good
deal Of fun" in the cotton market for
some time now. Cotton was quiescent
while wheat was soaring, but during the
past few days the heecy staple has come
into prominence and displayed a great deal
of activity. More than d week in advance
the Morning News forecasted the higher
prices which materialized on Monday and
Tuesday. Our correspondence from the
country had for several days been telling
Of injury to the growing crop, and we not
ed that the correspondence of the news
papers in other cotton states contained
similar reports, making it practically GER
tain that the very high estimates of the
total crop, made by the professional CUES
sers, would have to be materially modified
It will be observed by those who watch
the news column closely that these unfav-
orable reports are still coming in, indicat-
ing a still further shading of the figures
for the total production.
The size of the crop will depend largely
upon weather conditions for the next five
or six weeks At this time, however, it
seems reasonable to assume that Mr.. NeiPs
estimate of 9,750,0OO bales is altogether too
high shot. It would not be surprising If
he were to miss It by 10000 bales, or more
than that if there should be unfavorable
weather.
The statistical position has become
stronger than ever during the past week.
Stocks in spinners hands, in this country
and abroad, are smaller than they have
been for years. The manufactured stocks
in domestic markets have been reduced.
and number Of New England mills have
been started up, - fill orders. The firm
ness and promise Of the market therefore,
are not based upon a speculative move
ment, but a sound and stable basis. A very
gratifying fact. which may be considered
in connection with the favorable outlook.
is that the current crop is being produced
and harvested chiefly upon the farmers
own resources. The advances by ner-
chants and factors this year have been
comparatively small hence with the fair
range Of prices now in prospect the far
mers should enjoy degree Of prosperity
such as they have not seen for long time.

The Baltimore republicans were badly

1t is unfortunate that there should have
been a decrease in the state tax returns
at a time when so many extra expenses
will have to be met. An increase, even il
differences so that the tax rate might
have remained the same, would at least
have been encouraging. Perhaps the pres
ent seasons growing prosperity will make
next years returns show up much more
faVorably.

SLAUGHTER OF FELINES.
Medical Students Are Still Hunt 70
Cats to BE DiSs ected.

At this period of the year each of
the medical students in Chicago is re-
quired to dissect an animal and mount
its skeleton. The animal preferred is Il
cat. There are some 200 medical stu
dents in Chicago IN their first year, AMI
each of them is instructed to keep hi
eye open for cat. and they have been
proWling down alleys in search of fe-
lines, and perhaps half of them have
been lucky enough to be successful in
their search.
1t is not an easy thing to find a cat
when you want enc. Ordinary mortals
see plenty of them as they squal
through the night outside of their win
dows. But it is different with the med
zeal student. When he wants a cat he
finds it very difficult TO get one, ana
therefore he is forced to make very
thorough hunt before ba@gip@ his
game. On this account the medical
student finds it better to make the resi-
dence districts his hunting grounds,
where he may be able TO catch some
very tame feline who has wandered
from its house and home to sun itself oil
the steps.
The stray cats are much harder to
capture. because they are not as tam"
and have been taught by sad experience
to regard all men as their enemies. The
pet tabby is less suspicious and falls al
easy prey to the medical student when
she wanders from her own firesda.
Hence it is that most of the cats which
are being made martyrs to science are
we'll groomed and high bred. Fully d
score of beautiful Angoras and nearl'
as many Persian cats have been captured
alive and chloroformed by the students
during recent week.
There is a student at one of the med
ical colleges who has been so success
full in capturing cats that he has been
making a business of it and is laying BY
4 store of monev to help pay his eN-
penses through the college. He has Il
winsome way of saying PUSSY. pussy.
which few cats seem able to resist. and
| as a result has caught 16 during a
week, which he has had very little diff
ficulty in selling to less fortunate hunt
ers of the feline pets.-Chicago Times
