CONNECTICUT DIVISION.

Col. ". W. Wheeler announces that the
18th annual EnCampment OF the Connect
cut Division will te held in New Haven,
Friday, Feb. II. Past Col. George +. Cox
has been appointed member of the Trans
portation Committee in place OF Howard
Curry.
Col. Wheeler is devOting his efforts to
building up the Connecticut Division, and
i'm last Division Orders cxhOrtS the brethren
to renewed activity. Nearly every city of
the State contains from 100 to ,0J0 eligible
Young men, If every member OF the Order
did his duty, Col. Wheeler thinks, hardly
Camp would gain less than five members,
and where there is much good material the
increase might be 10 times greater. The
Commander says, in part:
We believe that it is within the power
of every brother to do something toward
making this the brightest and most prosper
Gus wear in the n story of the Div sion, but
i'm order to accomplish tn it Will require
increased exertiOn and some sacrifice of
time and self on the part Of all. Your
fathers gave and suffered much III the
struggle to- perpe uate this grand Republc
of ours Remember that the blessings
which, under Providence, we now enjoy are
but the fruits If their unselfish sacrifice.
Cannot you, then, be as unselfsh and
patriotic as they, and devote small pOr-
ton of your time toward the advancement
of a cause which has such worthy objects
and such IOyaI sentiments? 1t would seem
that little earnest work by every member
would result in bringing our membership
up to 1000 during the present year. Time
and Death are daily making heavy inroads
in the ranks of the veterans. We, their
sons, should be ready to fill the vacancies,
keep green their memories, and teach the
lessons of patriotism and loyalty to coming

There are Ill willows OF soldiers Of
the war OF 1912 drawing pensions Of
ss per month frfm the government
pension agency IN Chicago, and there
are seventeen other agencies In the
country. Although there are only
fourteen survivors Of this war now
living, therear 3, 287 widows OF men
who fought 10 1872, drawing IS per
month from the government.
81 do not want to be understood as
saying that none Of these widows OF
1872 is deserving Of the pension she
is drawing said General Anderson,
United States pension agent at Chica-
go, shut this war closed eighty-three
years ago, and these women must
have been very young when they were
married.
"There is no question that there
is great abuse Of the pension laws
by young women who marry old SOL
der for no other reason than to
live on the pension money after their
husbands are dead BY this system OF
mercenary marriages the pension list
of the government can be almost per-
petuated. There are now 200, 600
widows on the pension rolls, and
what proportion do you suppose are
old women--lifelong companions OF
the veterans? You can't tell; there
is no way of finding this out, hut the
widows seem out Of proportion to the
veterans

Counterfeit Money.

The report ofethe Secret Service d.
vision of the United States Treasury
department is out, and to the man
who supposes that counterfeiting as
an extensive or profitable business
in the United States it must prove
disappointing. During the year s23
persons were arrested charged with
counterfeiting. But only 1854, s07 in
counterfeit notes and coins was turn
ed over to the authorities. 1t is an.
parent that comparatively small
amount of counterfeit money is made,
when the total circulation is consider
ed, and that the persons who from
time to time engage in the business
meet with the most discouraging
success.
Once in while counterfeit gets
out that is fairly web calculated to
deceive, but many man has handled
money all his life without recalling
more than one or two fraudulent
notes or coins, and some have never
seen counterfeit money. The diff
Guilty in making a good imitation is
one reason of so little spurious coin
or paper, while more powerful in
| fiuence to keep the counterfeiter out
of job is the keen watchfulness
of the Federal Secret Service. The
counterfeiter is man not much to
be feared.

The most infamous case on record
of deception and injustice is the at
tempt to demonetize silver as money
Of final redemption in the United
States.
There is no learned judge, skilled
lawyer, or court of justice that is
capable of reconciling the effort with
the constitutional laws tia. govern
the issue of money in this country.
The people have been deceived,
officials in power, chosen to admins
ter justice under the laws, have
ignored their sworn duty, and given
aid to the scheme that has paralyzed
industry, reduced property values
one-half, and bsggared millions.
There is no authority of law, either
specific or by Inference, by which
gold alone is made the only money
with which to discharge debts, either
public or private. The effort to
make it SO is unconstitutional and
national calamity.

The Birth Of the .ereatero New York.


With the dawn of the new year the
"Greater" New York is ushered into
the world full grown giant. The
problem Of municipal government in
this country is to be put to the SUI
premest test on the grandest scale.
Within its limits is contained popu-
lation equal to that OF thirteen of our
sovereign states at the last census,
and as large as that Of the original
thirteen states when the union was
organized. Provisions for the life
and health Of this vast multitude of
all nations and chimes is an unsolved
enigma, but profiting by the exper-
fence of half a century's success,
thousands of sufferers in New York
and elsewhere can be wrested from
the grasp of that agonizing complaint
rheumatism, by the timely and syste-
matte use Of Hostetter's Stomach Bit

tive of MALARIA and kidney trouble,
