GRANTED A PENSION.
Length of Service In Fire Department
an Issue,

Private A. N. Carter of the District fire
department has been granted a pension of
$3.50 month, DR.. Clifton Mayfield one
of the examining physicians of the depart
ment, having found the man incapacitated
for duty because of disability from an at
tack of acute infamma tory rheumatism.
resulting from exposure while in the per-
formance of duty.
Before it was decided to pension Private
Carter the question of his right to a pen
sion was referred to the attorney of the
District. 1t appears that he has been a
member of the fire department little more
than one year, and Commissioner Wight,
who has immediate charge of the depart
ment, in suggesting that the question be
referred to the attorney for his opinion,
said:
1T is not clear to my mind that members
of the fire department who have only been
with it for so short a time as year are
entitled to a pension, even though they
have contracted a disease in the perform
ance of duty. In this case, the party re-
ferred to has lost an unusual amount of
time and is now suffering from disease
that apparently renders him unfit to be a
fireman. If he is entitled to pension l
recommend that a pension of $3.50 per
month be allowed him.
In his opinion, which the Commissioners
approved, the attorney states that the stat
ute relative to the pensioning of firemen
provides that the firemens relief fund shall
be used for the relief of any fireman, who,
having served not less than twelve months,
shall, by reason of injuries received or dis
ease contracted in the line of actual fire
duty, going to, at or returning from fire, or
who having served not less than fifteen
years, shall become so permanently dis
abled as to be discharged from service
therefor.
Carter, the attorney finds from the papers
in the case. contracted the disease in the
line Of actual fire duty and while at a fire.
He therefore holds that if the man is, by
reason of the exposure to which he was
subjected while iE the line of duty on the
9th of February last SO permanently af-
fected to be discharged from service
therefor, he should be retired on pension;
otherwise he could be continued in the serv-
ice for such reasonable time as will demon
strate whether he is likely to recover.

Removal of Building Ordered.

As the result of a complaint recently
made to the District Commissioners by
Mrs. M. B. Hay, owner of premises 635 X
street southeast, that building material had
been stolen from the house, the inspector Of
buildings has directed Mrs Hay to remove
the building within fifteen days 1t appears
from the records in the office of the in
spector of buildings that in February, 1898,
Mrs Hay was ordered to remove the build
ing because of a dangerous bulging wall
Subsequently, the order was modified so as
to require her merely to remove the attic
and second story of the building, and she
was permitted to store the material in the
first story, it being considered that under
such an arrangement there would be no
danger to the public. Mrs. Hay did this
and fenced in the premises, to further pro-
tect the public. Upon investigating the
complaint Of theft of the materials, Lieu
tenant Gessford reported no evidence Of
robbery. but stated that the building is now
In dangerous condition. Thereupon, the
inspector Of buildings directed the owner to
remove It, as stated.

When a friend is carried to his grave
we at once find excuses for every
weakness and palliations of every
fault; we recollect thousand endear-
ments which before glided of our
minds without impression, thousand
favors unrepaid- thousand duties un-
performed; and wish. vainly wish. for
his return, not SO much that We may
receive as that we may bestow happi-
ness and recompense that kindness
which before we never understood. Let
us therefore make haste TO do what
We shall certainly at last wish to have
done; let US return the affection of our
friends, and endeavor by mutual en-
dearments to heighten that tenderness
which is the balm OF life. Let us be
quick to repent OF injuries which re-
pentance may not be barren anguish
and let US open our eyes to every rival
excellence. and pay early and willing

pei us to pay at last

Eagle XIII. a Deer.

Lewis Breyer employed in lum-

witnessed the strange spectacle of an
eagle killing n deer recently. The great
bird swooped down on the gentle deni-
zen of the forest and with one stroke
of its talons cut the deer's jugular
vein. and the deer soon bled to death.
The eagle endeavored to carry on Its
victim. but the carcass was too heavy,
and after dragging it about a rod left
and soon returned with two more, and
the three devoured about half OF the
deer

etiquette upholds OF condones the
courteous act, then etiquette should
be condemned For some reason our
people seem TO think that presidents
have no more right to cover their
heads before a crowd of staring spec

crown The wonder is that many of
