Almost all persons die of disappoint-
ment, personal, mental or bodily toll or
accident. The passions kill men some
times even suddenly. The common OK
preston "choked with rage" has little
exaggeration In It, for even though not
suddenly fatal strong passions shorten life
Strong bodied men often die young, and
weak men live longer than the strong, for
the strong use their strength and tho
weak have none TO use--the latter take
care Of themselves, the former do not AS
IL Is with tho body, so 10 Is with the mind
and the temper the strong are apt to
break, or, like the candle, run; the weak
burn out. The inferior animals which live
temperate lives have generally their pre-
scribed term Of years. Thus the horse
lives 20 years, the OK 10 or 20, the lion
about 20, the hog 10 or 12, the rabbit 5,
the guinea pig o or a. The numbers all
bear proportion 10 the time che animal
takes to grow its full size But man, of
ell animals, is one that seldom comes up
TO the average. He ought TO live 100
years according TO tho phy siological law,
for five times 20 are 100, but instead Of
that he scarcely reaches Oh average Of four
times the gro1 ing period. The reason is
obvious-mol is not only the most irregu-
lar and most iDteniperate, but the most
laborious and hardworking OF all animals
He is always the most irritable, and there
Is reason TO believe, though we cannot tell
who. an animal secretly feels, that mS- o
thin any other animal, man chcrisLes
yrath to keep IL warm ahd consumes
nimself with the fire Of bis own reflections

A MILLION PENSIONERS.
The Roll of Honor Increases Largely
More Than $4,000 Original Claims Were
Granted Last Year.

The Roll of Honor Increases Largely
More Than $4,000 Original Claims Were
Granted Last Year.
Washington, Aug. 24.-In the forth
coming annual report of the commits
sioner of pensions, Mr.. II. Clay Evans,
| it will be shown that on June 30, 1897,
there were on the rolls of the pension
| bureau 976,O14 pensioners. To this
must be added 6,S52 original claims
granted but not recorded and 762 res
| torations which were not entered at
the time on the books.
Commissioner Evans granted 63,64S
original claims during the past year
and restored 4,Os9 pensioners to the
benefits of pensions. The pensioners
now aggregate 1,040,356.
More pensions were granted last
year than any time from 1869 up to
| 1880.
There is no means of approXimating
what the claims will be under the
| recent war. The pension Office has
| done nothing with the claims that
have been filed up to this time. They
do not aggregate a hundred and for
| the most part are claims of widows
and next of kin for the soldiers who
| fell before Santiago.
Before claim can be perfected it
must contain the full record of the
soldiers service and this information
has not yet been compiled by the war
department. When this is done the
claims will be speedily taken up.
The majority of the claims will be
for wounds and sickness, the latter
leaving the soldier more or less dis
| abled.
No additional legislation will be re-
| quired to deal with the cases arising
from this war. Claims will be adiud.-
Gated on the same lines as those of the
| rebellion.
