His Conscience Hurt Him.

The Washington correspondent
of the Globe Democrat sends that
paper the following:
There are many old soldiers who
decline to present claims for pen
sions, although the wounds or other
disabilities they bear bring their
cases clearly within the provisions
of law. Occasionally a pensioner
regaining health or finding that
fortune has smiled upon him volun-
tarily relinquished the government
contribution toward his support.
But letter received a few days
ago bv the commissioner discloses
circumstance which are said to be
without parallel From a southern
state an old Union soldier writes as
follows: Il have recently joined
the church. My new life compels
me to stop drawing the pension
which l have been getting for the
last thirty five years. l also feel
that l must make a confession of
the wrong I have done, At Gettys-
burg l didn't want to 90 into the
fight and to get out of it l shot off
the forefnger of my right hand.
That relieved me of further service
and was allowed a pension, II is
very hard for me to tell this, but |
propose to try to do the right thing.
l want my pension stopped, and l
am going to devote all I can earn

In headlines half foot high last

Larceny Of Water
Will be Checked by Com

Will Do Service In Case Of Break
d0Wn-Contract Awarded.

The Akron Water Works company
has recently employed a man to act as
detective. He will guard the COM
pany against the wholesale larceny of
water which has been going ON here
for several years.
1t has ben the habit for great many
contractors 10 use city water when
ever they wanted to without saying
anything to the company about 1t.
This practice has grown to such an
extent that the company decided to
take vigorous steps to stop It, The
companys detective has orders to visit
all places where contractors are at
work. If they are using water he
asks 10 see their permit. If they have
none the water is promptly shut off,
Nine times out oc ten the water is be-
ing taken from the hydrnDt of some
private consumer. They are forced 10
stand the loss occasloncd by the con
tractors theft of their water.
AN AUXILIARY PUMP.
An auxiliary pump is being put in
ot the pumping station of the company
1t will not be used unless the pump
now IN service breaks down. The
pump furnished by the Holley Manu-.
featuring company of New York. That
company has been awarded the con.
tract for large pump which will be
| put in the pumping station this fall
LESS WASTE.
There is less water being wasted this
year than last. This Is no doubt due
TO the fact that meters have been
placed In a number of the houses where
water was recklessly used. 1t had
the desired effect. The people imme
diately ceased 10 let the water run all
the time. The meter system will be
extended as soon as possible.
