COMMISSIONER EVANS LETTER
About Pensioners and Pension At
tOrneYs. to a Citizen Of Ava.

Alva, Q. T., April 5.-(Special.)-Th fol-
lowing letter from Hon. H. Clay Evans,
commissioner of patents, has been receiv-
ed by one of Alva's most prominent old
soldier citizens:
Department of the Interior, Bureau Of
Pension, Washington, March Is, 1898.
Mr.. --, Alva, o. T,
My Dear Sir-Your personal letter Of
the 10th inst has been duly considered.
was much interested and not little anus
ed at your frank and breezy way of put
ting things, but really think your CLASH
fed yourself wrongly. I must decline to
act on your permission to drop your name
from the list Of those entitled to practice
before the bureau. There is no reason
why 1 should drop your name, as your
record is clean and to such the criticisms
to which you refer do not apply.
Your long and honorable service as
soldier and citizen affords the best guar
antee that your record will remain I'M
furnished by unworthy acts now. l have,
and can have, no quarrel with worthy at
torneys who seek by legitimate means to
establish claims before the bureau, and
cate as speedily as possible all pending
claims in which the necessary evidence
has been furnished to establish them.
The reckless and inconsiderate admins
tration of a bureau that disburses more
than one-third of all the revenues Of the
country would be criminal in the eyes OF
all just citizens; and he who would hest
tate TO do his duty in charge of such a
trust because OF unfriendy criticism.
would be a coward and unworthy the hon
or the place confurs.
Be assured that 1 highly appreciate the
kindly feeling and confidence expressed
in your statement that 81 know you are
doing what you think is just and right to
all old soldiers
1 shall try 10 merit their confidence and
respect as well as yours.
Very Respectfully,
II. CLAW Evans Commissioner

PERLS OF HHALERS
Awful Sufferings of the Crews
of the Frozen-in Fleet.
CAPTAIN RAY REPORTS
Scoring Pretty Nearly Every
thing and Everybody.

! Nanaimo, B. c., April 5.-George F. Til
! ton, third officer Of the steam whaler Be-
| lvidere. who has just reached the out
side world from the vessels imprisoned
| in the ice, says that the steam tender
Jeanne, the steam whaIers Orea and Belvi-
| dere, the schooner Rosario and a bark are
| near Point Barrow.
He says that the men on the frozen-in
vessels are suffering untold privations on
account of the scarcity of provisions and
are compelled to feed on the rankest of
fish and dog meat. The natives are fast
disposing Of the CANNES at $50 head.
Tilton came south by way Of the Mack
enzie and Yukon rivers, and was just five
months and "a days making the trip of
1000 miles to the Pacific coast, during
which he and his two Indian guides suf-
fered themost execruciating agony from
the intense cold.
On his way out Tilton met Lieutenant
Jarvis and the overland relief expedition.
He directed them to the point at which the
feet is frozen in, but it was thought best
that he continue on his way home to st.
Michael in order to make known the safe
ty of the men connected with the fleet.
Tilton, after bidding farewell to his COM
rades, commenced his long and dangerous
voyage and when he reached he coas
chartered a steamer to take him and his
guides 10 await a south-bound vessel. He
was intercepted north of Sitka by the AL
bion and was transferred TO her and came
south. The United States rescue steamer
Bear, which is at Dutch Harbor, has not,
as yet, been of any assistance to the Ill
fated whalers who have been imprisoned
since October 10. when the young ice
formed.
No deaths had occurred among the
whalers when Tilton started south.
Speaking of the prospects OF the whalers
he said that beyond doubt the vessels
will be total wrecks. As soon as the ice
breaks up the vessels will be ground into
match wood and nothing of them will
ever be seen again.
The long-suffering whalers do not know
that any efforts are being made to relieve
them. There is possibility that aid may
be rushed overland by the route Tilton
followed.

Forestry at Shelburne Farms.

Vermonters who are interested in the
forestry Of the state may find pleasant
opportunity for the study of the art by
visiting Shelburne farms. One of DIR.
Webb's ideas for the beautific 1tion of
the farms is along the line of covering a
large part of the land with growth of
trees and to this end there are now a
gang of half hundred men at work
setting out large numbers of young
tr g in different sections of the farms.
One purchf-e of 22( 20 pines was r,
Gently made and number much
greater is being procured from about
Vermont. The native trees are first
plao' in the gardens for a year and
when they have proved hardy they are
SCI out az are the others. The greater
number Of the trees planted are pines
but there are also many elms, naples
and representatives of the other va
rieties.
In planting the trees competent men
are instructed to have due regard for
the natural beauty of the land where
they are placed and they are grouped
accordingly. What is known as Lone
Tree Hill has been nearly covered.
About half the trees set out for trial in
the gardens survive and are used per.
manently.

A Sensible Woman.

Mrs. Margsreths Sales, 10 Booth street,
East Bridgeport Conn.,, says:
81 have had the rheumatism for a good
many years in my right limb and back, also
in my left hand, and desire to say that
have gotten more benefit from DIR. Frost's
Rheumatism Cure than from anything 1
ever tried. 1 have tried about everything
on the list, from doctors prescriptions down
to herb tea. When / commenced taking
the Frost Remedy had no confidence in
my right limb at all, feeling that it was
liable to give way under me at any moment.
1 also suffered intense pain. / commenced
to improve almost with the first dose, and
after the first bottle was empty and l had
started ON the second one, my pain had en-
tirely left me and my limb was much
stronger.
II am now on my fourth bottle, and do
not calculate I } stop at that either. l have
had the rheumatism good many years. and
/ am not foolish enough to think that il can
be entirely eradicated in a minute. The
little pellets have given me such freedom
from pain and such sweet rest at night, that
l am satisfied there can be no harm in them.
No, srl / shall take thorough treatment,
for sufficient length Of time to satisfy me
that the disease IL killed: then l shall stop
taking them, but even then shall always
keep them handy P1 tried and true friend.
/ most heartily recommend them to all
rheumatism sufferers"

Bonaparte's Daughter.

"Queen Julie never joined her hus-
bano, Joseph Bonaparte, the fugitive
king of Spain, in this country" writes
William Perrine in The LADIES' Home
Journal, "but late in 1921 their daugh-
ter, the vivacious young Princess Char
lotte, determined to console her father
in his exile. She arrived at Philadel-
phia in the ship Ruth and Mary, COM
manded by Captain Mickle. The ships
wharf was covered with crowd anx
ious to see her. Only nineteen years
old, of highly animated temperament
and delighted at the ending of the forty
days voyage, the young girl was in an
ecstasy of pleasure. She waived her
fur bonnet at the persons on the wharf
with such careless delight that it fell
from her hands over the ships rail and
into the river. In her transport of en-
thusiasm she snatched Captain Mickle's
hat from his head, gayly placed it on
her own and saluted her admirers anew.
"Joseph was highly pleased with
Charlotte, whom he had not seen since
she was thirteen, and tried to give her
as much compensation as he could for
the pleasures of the continental life
she had left behind. He took her to
Long Branch and Saratoga, but he soon
discovered that her chief taste was for
painting. AT the old gallery of the
Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia
were exhibited several studies and land
scapes from her brush.-Exchange.

The Retired Burglar.

When / saw the gate at the top Of
the stairs" said the retired burglar,
"of course / knew there was young
children in the house. 1t was put
there to keep 'em from falling down
stairs. 1t was low, guess about two
feet and half high, and it swung when
closed from the post at the top of the
stairs across to strip nailed to the
wall opposite.
~ noticed this gate when went up,
particular, because a man in my bust
ness notices everything, and because /
thought that this would be handy
thing to shut in case anybody should
get after me in the house; that shut
ting that gate in front of 'em might
stop 'em long enough TO let me get
away comfortable. 1t wasn't more'n
year before had chance to try it.
"There was long hall on the second
floor of this house, with this stairway
pretty near at the front end of it. l
went into room way back at the 9TH
er end, and while was looking around
there upset something on the bureau
and woke up man in the bed.
"'Well,' he says, what's the matter
now?' And / didn't wait to hear any
more. l didn't even turn the light on
him. didn't need to. You could tell
all you wanted to know about him by
his voice. He was resolute, able
bodied citizen that could hear getting
out of bed.
~ made a break for the door, and
sprinted along the hall, throwing my
light and catching sight of that gate
again and smiling TO myself as l saw
it. l swung it around shut after me as
passed and went on down the stairs,
leaving the man up stcirs coming along
the hall overhead with rush.
"'But its all right says to my self
the gate'll stop him long enough for
me to get out easy But, by snakes, ii
didn't stop him at all. On the con-
trary, it helped him. Just as / was
stepping down from the last step on to
the floor of the hall below the man fell
on my back. He'd been coming along
the hall above 80 fast that he couldn't
top himself, and he fell over the gate,
turned summerset in the air on the
staircase and came down heap faster'n
did and landed on me. Instead OF
breaking his own back he pretty neal
broke mine.
1--WE rolled over and over on the
floor in the hall, the man laughing FL
to kill. That's the sort of a man he
was. 1t was the funniest thing he't
run up against in long time.
"He never once thought of stopping
me, not once, but he says, when he wa
letting me out, IF you should come
again, don't shut the gate. "-Nev
York Sun.
