a drawing alleged TO represent "Habana
harbor and MORO Castle" From this
one would suppose the Moro to be sit

but she had promised him that she
would discontinue the habit. Shortly
before the hour set for the marriage
one of the bridesmaids offered her u
cigarette and she smoked it. As the
clergyman commenced the ceremony
Keldsr shifted suspiciously. Then he
leaned forward with his face close to
tn BRIDES.
You've been smoking again" he ex-
c'eimed.

scam. You should know as you
probably do that it is only the worst
kind of abuse to the brave defenders
of this nation. l detest and abhor
your lying paper and l will never
subscribe for it again.
The editor forthwith proceeded TO
look up the record of this brave
defender of the nation to determine
what claim he had to national graf
itude and support. This is the re.
suit of the investigation:
He served sixty days in the New
York State militia. Claimed to lave
been in the hospital twenty days,
though there is no record Of it, and
the surgeon, when found, had Meth
err record nor remembrance of the
case or the man. Claimed to have
contracted a bad cold and c,tarrh,
which permanently disabled him and
lead to deafness. Applied for a
pension 10 1885, aud since has had
four attorneys, who, together, have
called at the Pension Office seven
teen times for a statement of his
case. Not having been mustered in
to the United States service, and
not having served ninety lays, there
is no law under which a pension
could be granted, even il the proof
he furnished had been straight
which it was not,
But for the aid OF rascally pension
attorneys-oll of them are not
rascals-no man like this fellow
Wheelock could have had his fraud
ulent claim even presented to the
Pension DEPARTING nt.-St. Louis Re-
public.
