THE PENSION QUESTION.

Yesterday morning when the
Amateur came into the editorial
rooms of the TeXarkanian, he OBJ
served that Pete's face was wreath
ed in smiles occasioned by the
.Seer's announcing the fact in the
Courier that he was after the "Am-
ateur" and would let Pete go. Then
the Amateur must fight the
fight alone; he was never a very
pugnacious character, but when
one attempts to rub I he hair
the wrong way just for the
fun of the thing, he has never been
known to cry, hold enough!
Now, as to pensions; The Cour-
ier in his long editorial of yesterday
acknowledges that he would be
willing to appropriate $4,000 per
year ifit were necessary for thispur-
pose; but he attempts to show that
such would never be the case by
comparing our figuring to the Irish
mans calculation as to what his
son would weigh at the age of
twenty-one years. The joke and
the point intended to be illustrated
by it are separated by a hiatus 50
wide that the fallacy is clearly ap.
parent to one who thinks of it
for a moment. For in his editorial
copied in yesterdays issue of the
Texarkanian, he says the approp-
ration for next year will be in
creased to 1925, 900, and the roll
! will increase in proportion and that
he hoped each of the old fellows
could get 800 per year. This does
not put off the matter twenty one
years, he says in effect that he
| hopes the "old fellows" may get
$810,OO0 next year. The roll would
in all probability, 60 on increasing
till 5000 pensioners would be a
small estimate of the number.
The assertion that the "Ama
teur" grudges the starving eX-con
federates this small pittanCe al
lowed by law is without any kind
of foundation; he has asserted anC
still does so, that he ''feels that
every old confederate soldier who i;
in hard circumstances should be
aided in spending his last days il
peace and quiet" He denies that
there will be any occasion for any
such expenditure as the Courier
hoped might be available for 1900
| The seer says that these ex-COnfed
crate soldiers are more than &
match, man for man, for any hu
man being on earth. The anna
teur" has observed this, and they
are as a rule the best to do people
in the country; the people are kline
to them; and in all our acquaint.
ance of these old fellows, we know
of none who is starving" nor have
we ever seen one begging bis bread,
God bless them, they are the salt
of this beautiful southland;
We urged care on the part of
the officers in admitting to these
pension privileges for it is fact
that all who apply are not worthy.
A man who is worth $25O0 is not in
starving condition, and we are
informed that such have applied.
Now, Mr.. Seer, this is the "Ama-
tears position on this question
and he intends to hold to it, for he
is opposed to this spirit that is per
vading the whole country that
would make every one rush to
the government treasury every
time misfortune overtakes him; let

the gold standard the trusts, and

SPANIARDS AND THE"MAINE. -
Capt. Sigsbee Tells Of the Demon - ra.
tions Against the Vessel In
Havana Bay.

Six bulls were killed during the day.
Our party arrived as the first one was
being hauled away dead. After the
fifth bull had been dispatched, it was
decided, as considerate measure in
favor of Gen. Parfado. that we should
leave the building and return to Ha-
vana early, so as to avoid the crowd.
We therefore left very quietly, just be-
fore the sixth bull entered the ring.
We tried to reach the ferry promptly,
so that we might return to Havana on
!. steamer having but few passengers.
Three members of our party were sue
cessful in this attempt. but Gen. Lee,
Lieut.. Holman, and failed. On our ar
rival a steamer had just left the land
ing. We then hailed Il small passen-
ger boat, and were pulled to the Maine.
While Gen. Lee and | were conversing
on the quarter deck of the Maine,
ferry boat came across the bay, carrying
back to Havana Il large number of peo-
pie from the audience. There was no
demonstration of any kind The pas
sengers were doubtless those who had
left early, hoping, like ourselves. to
avoid the crowd.
The next ferrvboat was densely
crowded. Among the passengers were
Ii number of officers of the Spanish
army and of the volunteers. AS the
ferry boat passed the Maine there were
derisive calls and whistles. Apparent
ly not more than so people participated
in the demonstration. 1t was not gen
eral, and might have occurred any.
where. | have never believed that the
Spanish officers or soldiers took part.
II is but fair to say that this was the
| only demonstration of any kind made
against the Maine or her officers, either
collectively or individually so far as
| was made known to me, during our
visit Adverse feeling toward us was
shown by the apathetic bearing of sol
diers when they saluted. or of trades
men when they supplied our needs.
After the Maine had been sunk. and
| when the Montgomery and the Fern
| We're in Havana, Spanish passenger
boatment exhibited bad temper by
Withholding or delaying answers to our
halls ut night. The failure of the Span
ish authorities to compel the boatmen
to answer our halls impressed me as be-
| ing very closely akin to active unfriend-
! illness. 1t was at the time when the
Vizcaya and the Oquendo were in Ha-.
| vana, using picket boats and occasional
ly searchlights at night, apparently to
safeguard themselves. Halls were made
sharply and answered promptly be-
tween the Spanish men-of-war and the
boats constantly plying about the har-
Dor at night. 1t must have been plain
on board the Spanish men-of-war that
the boatmen were trifing with us. This
was after the Vizcaya had visited New
York.-Capt. Charles ID. Sigsbee, in

REMEDY FOR HOG CHOLERA.
Donkeys Used Chiefly for Preparin 9
the Immune Serum--An Im-
pOrtant Discovery.
Century.

After experiments extending over .
period of 20 years, and the expenditure
of many thousands of dollars, the
United States government is at last
combating successfully those most per-
nicious diseases, hog cholera and swine
plague. The results obtained by the
bureau of animal industry of the agri-
cultural department, especially during
the last year, have been highly salts
factory, and the scientists who have
devoted so much time and labor to the
work feel amply repaid for their efforts.
The discovery of serum which rem
ders hogs immune from the ravages of
cholera and plague is an important one.
1t means a great deal to one of the fore
most American industries. and the
benefits arising from it are almost in
calculable. The propagation of the Sc
rum requires the use of many animals.
At the experiment station, where it is
made, there are donkeys. cows. calves,
| mules and horses, all patiently submit
ting to the process of incubation and
| blood drawing. Strange as it may ap-
| pear. not single hog is used in making
the antitoxin fluid which is such
blessing to his family. Hogs have not
been found we'll adapted to the purpose
for which the government uses other
| animals. Donkeys are the favorites
with the experimenters.
| The station at Bethesda. Nd, eight
miles from Washington. is unique
| institution. On the well-kept farm
there are dozens of horses and mules
that are strangers to the plow and har-
| ness. There are COWS whose days for
giving milk are over. and whose lives. in
the eyes of the scientists. are devoted
to higher objects. The farm is pre-
sided over by DR.. Ernest c. Schroeder,
a man who. although still young. has
made name in the scientific world.
DIR. d. f. Salmon, chief of the bureau
of animal industry. said recently:
Eve have used serum On LOCO animals
this wear and have saved over SO pei
| cent. of herds treated. While the treat
ment was going on observations were
made of 1.100 hogs in other herds not
treated for the lack of serum, and 81
. uer cent. died Last year the percent
age of hogs saved cut Of 2i0 treated wa
u, while in other herds not treated s
