The dead man appears to be a German,
So to 60 years old. The only gar

There was q frightful wound on the

by blow from q blunt instrument
The dead man lie bald, but wore a
stubby beard and mustsche. The
face is go distorted that recognition
will be difficult. The police at Bal
tImore were notified of the ghas:ly
find, and rigid investigation reveal
ed that the dead man was an un-
known German, who was killed by a
street car, and as that no one claimed
the body, it was turned over to a

Raid Of the Pension Sharks.

The civil war ended 35 years ago.
and there are now nearly 100000
pensioners on the roll. This proves
one of two things. Disability con-
tracted in the military service of the
United States does not interfere with
longevity, or else the pension list is
honeycombed with fraud. IL is in
conceivable that 100000 men who
contracted disease or received wounds
q generation ago are still alive. There
are not so many pensioners in all
Europe. IL does not cost Germany
as much money to keep up the I'm
perial Army as it does America to
support this horde of taxeaters in
idleness. The pensioner who gets on
the rolls honestly and as the result of
his service having disabled him is
entitled to the respect CT every honest
man: but common sense teaches that
st least so per cent, perhaps a far
larger proportion of pensioners, have
no righteous claim upon the public
treasury. The raids made since
1865 have demoralized the youth of
the land aud blunted its moral sensi-
bilities. Out of one regiment which
was not even scorched by powder
during the Spanish war, All soldiers
have concluded to live of their mill
tary reputation during the rest of
their natural lives. Does anybody
believe that even per cent, of this
number have claims founded in JUS
tice and right? Fairly in the century
young man able 70 support himself
would have lodged a petition with
the town board and asked for parish
relief, az soon as he would have
claimed an annuity for going to the
front In time of war.

Memorial to Confederate Women

Headquarters, Virginia Division.
United Sons of Confederate
Veterans Nottoway, Va, Jsnu-
airy goth, 1900.
To the EditoE-The United Sons
Of Confederate Veterans, at their re-
union in May last, st Charleston, in
augursted q movement which should
receive the hearty endorsement and
the warm support of every man,
woman and child In the South. 4
resolution, offered on behalf of the
Virgins delegation, was unanimously
passed, assuming the loving task OF
raising . fund for the erection of a
monument TO the memory of the
Women Of the Confederzcy. In pur-
suance of that resolution = commit
tee composed of one from each Of
the Southern States has been appoint
ed by COMMANDMENT Chief CoiQuitt:
and | have recently been informed
that l have had the honor TO be nam
ed as its chairman.
The resolution as originally draw Il
called for the erection of = "monu-
ment of enduring bronze" but II Is
thought by many prominent Veter-
ans and Sons of Veterans, that it
would be more appropriate to erect
10 honor of these noble women =
memorial college for the education
OF Southern girls, or 4 home for in-
dlgent widows aud daughters OF
Confederate soldiers and sailors.
The United Daug hters of the Con
federacy, during their recent meeting
in Richmond, grsciously gave their
approval TO our plans, declaring
themselves, however, in favor of a
college or home in preference to q
monument.
When We remember the glorious
record of the Southern women dur
ing the Civil War, it seems strange
that a memorial of this kind has not
long ago been erected. Above and
beyond all others, such a monument
or memorial should ~ erected: and il
is peculiarly fitting, l think. that the
sons of the men who fought should
thus do honor to the women who
bore with their fathers the fearful
burden Of that tremendous struggle
for our constitutional rights.
The movement Is going 10 be Wig
orously pushed. and if the people of
the whole South do not respond gen
erously. mistake the reverent al
mirstion in which they hold those
"grandest and hest Of all Gods crea-
lures. the Southern women of the
Civil War"
| will be glad TO hear from any
one desiring to assist in raising this
fund. Contributions may be sent 70
me, and will be promptly acknowl
edged. Very respectfully yours,

When thus cleaned, the grain passes
into a machine that reduces it into

the Ingredients for bread are turned
