Humors of tho Pension oaice


A Washington correspondent of the
New York Sun has discovered that
clerks in the pension Office endowed
with sense of humor, find much in
the letters coming from pension claim
ants to bring the solace of amusement
to their labors. Some of these letters
are SO unique in their way that copies
are made of them as literary curiosI-
ties. Here, for instance, is an excerpt
from the letter of man who lately
made application for a pension:
1.-The way got my war ingery was
a-ketchin of a hog. The hog wor n
sow hog and our Captin wanted her
fur forage. We was chasin the sow
and she crawled threw n hoal in rale
fence-it war a big hoal and l thot I
were about the sis of the hog and tried
to craw threw, but stuck and tryin to
wigle out l throwed the rales off and
one hit me on my he'd and nocked me
senseless. l do not think the SOW pig
had nothing to do with my line for duty
fer did not ketch the hog. WITCH she
never war caught"
A sympathizing neighbor endeavors
to reinforce the claims Of another ap-
plicant by testifying thus:
Il varlly believe that Orville Jane
son is fatiged from earnin his leayin
becos he is too fatt ways 200 pounds
and hav a family to fead-the neigh
bors think lie hay dropsy but no he
hav no dropsy becos he would bust II
he had moar insides him than he now
hay besides witch he are without vitious
habits or references. 10 lie hav solid
fntt and vittels in him an no dropsy.''

AS the territory is large, each individ-
ual Yaqui can always find place suit
able for cultivation for that particular
season. Next season lie may have to
find moisture and other conditions nee
essary. Now it is evident that if the
land were not held in common and if
every Yaqui had his own allotted piece
some would possess suitable land for
cultivation, while others would have
dry lands, which would be worthless
unless properly irrigated. Much of the
present trouble with the Yaquis arises
from this fact. The Mexican govern
ment wants the Yaquis to divide their
land SO that every individual may pos
sess his own plot.
They Take to the Mountains.
Colonel Martinez of the Mexican
army, in an Interview ON the Yaqui in
surrection, says: 1.-The Indians have
been restless for some months past.
They object to American prospectors
invading the mountains of their coun-
try in quest of gold. We We're expect
ing an outbreak and We're not unpre-
pared. If we can cut off the Indians
before they reach their strongholds,
our work will be easy enough, but once
in the mountains, conquest of the in
surgents will be difficult problem.
That was the trouble during the ten
years war which ended two years ago.
and cost Mexico much blood and trea-
sure. The Indians retreated to the
mountains, where they could not be
pursued. and Mt every favorable oppor-
tunity swooped down upon the troops
or assailed neighboring Villages. muir
dering and plundering. If the Indians
do not surrender war of eNtefmina-
ton will ensue. Ii is a pity, TOO for
