NO CHANGE IN STORY.
Same Thing over Again Satisfies the
People.

The repetition of joke too many
times robs it of its fun producing quality
There are some things, however. which
imperatively call for. repetitions, and the
more of the same sort the better. For
instance, the people demand Of Logan
that he continue to furnish the same ex-
cellent supplies he has I'm the past. They
want the best and they know where to
get 1t. Logans is the place to get the
necessaries for a feast.-ad.

BURGLARY AT BURROUGHS.

store OF Mr.. Il. SilVerberg was En-
tered and safe Robbed.
Mr.. Isidore Silverberg's store at Bur-
roughs was burglarized night before last.
No clew to the burglars was discovered,
as they left nothing behind to reveal
their identity.
About 800 was taken from the safe,
which, it seems, had been left unlocked,
the combination not having been throYn
out. In their haste to escape with their
plumber the burglars were careless
enough to drop some loose silver and two
$40 bills on the floor.
Entrance to the store was effected by
means of a window. crowbar was
used to pry open the shutter, and 1t Is
presumed from the employment of that
implement and the fact that section
hands were al work near Burroughs, that
colored railroad men got the booty.

It Is always more courteous in . man to pay a young lady you have in- vited to go to the theate the compli- ment of wearing your dress suit, for she will undoubtedly take the trouble to wear a rather smarter gown than her ordinary street costume. There are a great many reasons why it may not be possible for you to wear dress suit. You may not have time, or you may not be in the habit of wearing one, but if you are in the habit of wearing one it certainly would seem very strange to choose this op- portunity for not wearing it, and un- doubtedly the young lady would ba very much pleased if you did co.

F O EF FATHERS HONEST.
In Most Cases They Bought Their Hands
 from the Indians.

sometimes historians tell us that r was only Datehmen and not English. men who bought the red mans land instead ot stealing it. Such state
 ments have been made in New York, but if We pass on to Philadelphia we hear that it was only Quakers who were thus scrupulous. and when we arrive in Baltimore we learn that it was only Roman Catholics. In point of fact, it was the invariabe custom of European settlers on this Atlantic coast to purchase the lands on which they settled and the transaction was usually recorded In deed to which the Sagamores affixed their marks. Nor was the affair such a mockery as it may at first thought seem to us, says a writer In the Atlantic Monthly. The red man got what he sorely cov- eted, steel hatehets and grindstones, glass beads and rum. perhaps muskets and ammunition, while he was apt to reserve sundry rights of catching game and fish A struggle was in- evitable when the white mans agricul- ture encroached upon and exhausted the Indians hunting ground; bat other circumstances usually brought it on long before that point was reached The age of iron superseded the stone age in America by the same law ot progress that from .tme immemorial has been bearing humanity onward from brutal savagery to higher and more perfect life In the course of it our forefathers certainly busted and dispossessed the red men. but they did not dc it in spirit of robbery.

THE PENSION ROLLS.

An officer of the pension bureau is twenty three years to eXtinguish the pension roll of the civil war and other wars prior.
 Last year there were 45,344 pension CTS added to the roll. Of these 4,699 were the restored names of those who for various reasons had been dropped. By reason of the death, remarrage or other causes there were dropped from the roll 43,234 pensioners, or a differ ence of 2,010 on the side of the in crease. the roli having grown that amount over all sources of decrease in a year.
 Ks the total number on the roll at the close of the year was 993,5 at the current rate of gross decrease, the pension list would be eXtinguished i'll about twenty-three years. Naturally however. this gross decrease will be- come larger and larger as the time goes by and the pensioner becomes alder So that, if there were no in crease, the roll would become almost extinct in less than twenty three years The civil war ended thirty six years ago. If we assume that every penSioner came out of the war at the age of twenty-five, tWenty-three years hence, if alive, all would be eightyfour years of age Many thous- ands of veterans were over forty at the close of the War, and must be SeNentN-siX years of age now, and will ne ninety-nine twenty y-three years hence. By the middle of the present century. therefore if any of the sur vivorS of the civil war are alive, all must be over a hundred years of age. unless they came out of the war as veterans at the age of fourteen.
 There is no probability of the roll becoming eXtinguished so soon. how ever, as for nearly every pensioner who dies. there are widows or de- pendent minor children to take the vacated place on the rolls-often two ar three minor children. so that the death of peusioner often absolutely increases the number on the roll. The question then becomes, when will these widows and dependent chil- dren become eXtinct?"
 This can be approximated by refer.

ring to the other wars. For instance. though the Mexican war ended fifty five years ago, there are still S,352 survivors of that war on the roll, and S,151 widows, or total of 1e,464 bene- ficiaries. In the past four years the survivors of this war have decreased ? 2,342. but the number of widows of these veterans has increased on the roll seyentynine in the total number as compared to four years ago.
 The survivors of the Indian wars on the roll have decreased 900 in four years, and there are but 1870 of these veterans left on the rolls. The widows of the soldiers of these wars have decreased from 4,2SS to 3,739, and the widows of the veterans of the war of 1912 have decreased from 2, S10 to 1,742 during the same period, there being but one veteran pensioner of this war alive
 As there were never more than 200.-
 
 900 veteran pensioners from all these wars together. while there have been over a million from the civil war, it is probable that there will still be about 100000 beneficiaries of the civil war on the roll twenty-three years from now. This is so small number. however, that the roll may be consid- cred almost practically at an end.
 On the question of amount, the roll lost about SS4 1000 last year, though it increased in number 2,010 and this will become increasingly the rule. those who take the places of the vet eran pensioners drawing much small CT sums.

Discovered Coal In PennsyIvan-n.

number of prominent coal men of Pennsylvania have decided to erect monument of coal to Philip Ginter, the discoverer of that fuel at Summit Hill, near Maurh Chunk One hundred and nine years ago Ginter lived In a rough cabin in the forests on the Mauoh Chunk Mountain. While in quest of game for his family, whom he had left at home without food of any kind, his foot strlck black stone. By the roadside, not far from the Town of Summit Hill. he built fire of wood and threw pieces of the supposed stone about it. so that the embers might last longer while he was roasting a fowl. He was surprised, after a little while. to see the stones glow and re- tain their heat for a long time He car- ried a lot of the coal home and burn ed it there. The few ..eighbors soon learned of the discovery, but there was no mining to any extent in Carbon county unti! after the war of 1872 had begun.

WHO BLEW UP THE MAINE P
The Truth Is Not Known, Despite
All Assertions to the Contrary.

Charles ". Pepper in the Bostoi Transcript
Since the question of the blowing up
of the Maine has been revived in way
it is almost certain that people will be
turning up who, at this late day, have
made valuable discoveries about the
wrecked battleship. Going down from
Havana a few weeks ago, an insurance
man came up to me in great confidence
and wanted me to see the president
of his company. Somebody whom the
president knew had been telling him
startling tale about the Maine, and
he thought it was new and ought TO
be given to the world. This particular
story was one Of the old, old ones
which have made many enterprising
newspapers weary, and which belong
to the category of what they cali "pipe
| dreams"
In Havana there is an AmeTcanizpd
| European detective who has had eN-
! perience in South America and Mexico
and, therefore, claims to know the
| Spanish people one day Father Child
| wick, the chaplain of the Maine, told,
me that he received some mysterious
hints from this detective, who was
going to write a book telling the whole
story and fixing the responsibility on
certain individuals. A few weeks later
at the request of the detective, i went
who "was on the trail" This person
was former Spanish police official
He knew just as much as some of the
