The necessity of cleanliness about a
poultry house is well understood by
all who have had experience with
fowls. Especially is this true in re-
gard to roosting places, where one dis
eased fowl will communicate an in

birds. The coop should be cleaned

easy task whereas it is generally a
long and disagreeable one.
The perches should be placed in the
form of an A roof, the top being

a GREAT RUSH.
FOR PENSIONS
Veterans of the Spanish War
Are Suffering From Malaria.

Washington, April 4.-The pen
sion Office is being almost over
whelmed with applications for pen
sions now beng fled BY soldiers
who served Ia the war with Spain.
The demand is beyond all expect
atoms.
The regiment which has achieved
the distinction of having the larg-
est number Of applications fer PEN
siens thus FAR is the Thirty fourth
Michigan. The number of PEN
sions so far received from this regi-
ment is $50, or over one-fourth of
the entire strength of the regiment.
The seceud place belongs to the
District of Columbia regiment,
which has in $50 applications. Then
follow the Thirtieth Michigan, the
Eighth Ohio, the president S
Own," as it is called, and the Sec
ond Massachusetts. The number
of pension applications from the
Second Massachusetts, which is the
fifth on the list, is 81. Seventeen
officers of the staff Of the District
of Columbia regiment are among
the applicants for pensions.
OF all the regiments mentioned
the only two which were under
fire were the Second Massachus-
sets and the Thirty-fourth Michi-
gan. The Second Massachusetts, had
a number killed and wounded, and
the Tirty-fcurth Michigan has four
men killed at Aguadores bridge,
and probably dozen wounded.
The principal cause upon which
pensions are asked is malaria.
The pension Office officials say
the rush for pensions by those who
served in the Spanish war is very
remarkable, in view of tae'fact that,
up TO 1882, there were number oE
regiments which had served all
through the civil war which did not
nave, all told, 100 applications. 1t
is the belief at the pension Office
that the pension attorneys are large
" responsible for the large number
of pension applications which have
been made.

Washington, April 5.-At q
meeting of the Board of Officers Of
the Loyal Legion, held at Rausch-

TO expel General Eagan from the
comnlandery in consequence of his
recent courtr1artial. The meeting
adjourned without final action,
but the sense Of those present in
dicated the probable adoption of
the motion at another meeting to
be held next week. His court
martial case was discussed in great
detail, and the findings of the court
were approved. Senator Hawley
antagonized the motion to expel
and this precipitated a lengthy
discussion, which lasted until a
