AT the annual encampment of the Kan

Thursday in Hutchinson, Kas., Commits
sioner of Pensions II. Clay Evans was Sc
verely criticised for his official course and
attitude toward the old soldiers. The
Kansas Representatives in Congress were
urged to present the veterans grievances
to the President and to petition Congress
TO institute an investigation Of the Pension
Office and to provide some remedy to pre-
vent the Commissioner from taking ad-
vantage of certain rules and regulations.
The following resolutions were adopted:
We demand that the present Commissioner oil
Pensions be removed and another appointed who
will execute the laws in accordance with the true
spirit which prompted their enactment.
In an interview yesterday with Times
reporter Mr.. Evans said he had read the
resolutions adopted by the Kansas G. A. r.
but that they were of no importance. They
had adopted similar resolutions at various
times previously, but as In the present in
stance they had confined themselves to
general statements and had made no spe-
cific charges. When they did that he
thought he would have very little diff

same which have been in existence since
1890. and l am governed by them. The
Pension Bureau is an immense business.
We have nearly 100000 pensioners on our
lists, and the Office is managed with the
greatest possible generosity toward the old

MANILA, July 3.-Reports have been
received here of an outbreak in the ISL
and of Negros, incident upon the de-
parture of the California regiment for
home. Some hostile natives, seeing a
company of soldiers at one of the small
posts, preparing to depart, thought the
Americans We're executing the island,
and a party of so rebels mostly bolo-
men, attacked the troops and killed one
man and wounded another belonging to
Company E. The Filipinos were easily
driven off.
The transport Sherman will bring the
California troops to Manila before
starting for San Francisco.
The transport Grant will soon en-
bark the Colorado regiment.

A Correspondent Criticises the Beers
and Their Customs.


LONDON, Oct 9.-A correspondent of
the Post says OF the average Boer:
The average Boer is inferior in intel
ligence, gratitude and loyalty In per-
sonal cleanliness he is very inferior. In
trustworthiness he is below the Zulu or
Swat His religion is a mixture Of hypo-
crisy, superstition, and bigotry. He never
sees newspaper, which probably he would
be unable to read, and he has not the re-
motest conception of the meaning we at

means cunning, intrigue, OF what he would
call sllmness Lying he develops into
fine art. EXpediency and might-his might
mean right. Paul Kruger is to him the
apotheosis OF 'slimness'
Even the women have their own little
ways. All large general shops have shop
walkers, whose one duty is to watch the
Boer ladies who come to buy. These are
provided with large under pockets, which
they stealthily fill with variety of wares.
Before leaving the shop a bill is made out
for what they have openly purchased, while
a list Of the lifted articles at a double price
is added, and the whole is paid without a
word. The shopleepers say that this is
much the best plan. II notice were taken
OF the matter In any other way the shop
would be boycotted by the Beers. II is
certain, however, that great deal is taken
unseen.
The men are by no means abstemious,
but absorb enormous quantities of peach
brandy and Cape smoke, which make
them both stupid and quarrelsome.
''On many Boer farms the natives are
forced to take a great part of their daily
wages in spirits. Mr.. Rhodes has steadily
set his face against this, which has not

forgery. He has confessed Sturm occu-

is said to have gotten his position on ac-

1t is charged that on July 80 he forged
a check for SIS, on August IL another for
5000, and on September third for $3.50,
total of s425. According to the police his
method was the same in every instance.
One Of his duties was to take the firms de-
posits to the bank. After the money had
been entered in the book, it is alleged. he
would draw check payable to the order
of bearer.
The matter was not discovered by the
firm until October 4, when they examined a
package of Cancelled checks which had
come back to them. That same day Sturm
sent word he was ill.,
The firm reported the matter at the sta

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 9.-The eighteenth
and nineteenth centuries were strangely
linked on the eve of the twentieth century
when Mrs Sarah Terry, remarkable
woman, who has just reached her 1OSth
birthday. few about the Quaker City's
streets perched high on a horseless carriage.
the wonder of a wonderful era 1t was
Mrs. Terry's birthday ride.
Since she was first told of the vehicles
that move without the help of horses
and was set to marveling she has been
looking forward to ride on the new
tangled conveyance, and just before her
birthday last week she said: II have ridden
in every kind of style, and there is no
better way of celebrating my anniversary
than by taking this new trip"
True to her word when her birthday
arrived the old lady was ready for her
novel ride before noon. With practically
no assistance she climbed to the elevated
sea, IN the surrey that stood waiting in
front of her home, 545 North Sixteenth
Street Her granddaughter, who is about
seventy years younger, had more trouble in
getting into her seat at the old DANES SIDE
Now I'm ready, and let her go fast, y
said Mrs. Terry, as she waved a good
bye to the neighbors who stood at their
windows and DOORS In a few moments
the automobile was on the asphalt of Broad

hair of the distinguished rider all about

The truth issN hat Mrs. Terry is still girl
she wants to be admired. Sitting erect on
the carriage top she looked all about the
streets and was happiest when she saw
that all eyes were upon her. While speed
ing along at rapid rate, Mrs. Terry looked
with compassion upon the horses that were
passed and said: Il don't see why they
don't get together and make a complaint
against these horseless carriages; it's a
shame they've been deprived of their
honors. ."I is t
Upon reaching homeidMrs, Terry said
she felt nearly 100 years younger. Though
she usually goes to bed at 8 O'Clock, she
stayed up until 10 that night talking of
her strange ride. Already she has planned
another ride, and more are to follow. ac-
cording to her.
Mrs. Terry will next week go to Mount
Holly. N. j., twenty-five miles away, on
a visit to scenes of her childhood. The
old lady is more actives on her feet than
her granddaughter and can stand as erect
and walk faster. She has no physical i'll
and bids fair to livedseyera years longer
The daughter of Stacy Doron, Reyolu-
tionary soldier, she was born at Pember-
ton. N j., on September, rs. 1891 She is
a Daughter of the Revolution. AS Mrs
Terry said herself, she hopes to ride on
an automobile in the Hsxt century.
