PENSION STATISTICS.
Commissioner Evans Prepares Z
Special Statement.
FOR Use BY C. A. R. ENCANpEy1.
The Year Just Closed II the "Iiigh Water
Mark" In the History Of the Bureau
Amounts Paid Under the Differ
emit Administrations.

Washington, Aug. Accommodation
er Evans has prepared statement
showing the operations in principal
features Of the pension bureau dur
ing the last fiscal year as compared
with former years. Most Of the data
will be embodied in his annual re-
port and the statement is prepared
for the use Of the national encamp-
ment of the G. A. R., which will be
held before the report is ready. 1t
shows that the number Of pension
ers on the rolls June 3O'last was 997,-
1876, a net gain of 1906 over last year.
The total net loss to the roll during
the year was 1856, which includes
1888 by death, S53 by remarriage,
1852 by minors reaching the age Of
16, 1888 by failure to claim pensions
and 1,46O from other causes. A COM
paratiye table shows that the roll for
the year just closed is the high
water mark" in the history of the
pension bureau, the next highest hav-
ing been reached in 1898. OF the
gains to the rolls during the year g.
$40 were from the war with Spain.
The losses included two from the
revolution, 215 from the war in 1872,
500 from the war with Mexico and
544 from the Indian wars. The gains
to the rolls since 1898 were 1884
widows of the civil war and 1904
from the Spanish war; total, $685.
The net gain to the rolls in the four
years was 4,O21.
Pensions granted to widows under
the act Of June ~, 1890, during the
year numbered 1860, or nearly 1850
in excess of those granted the previ-
GUS year.
The total amount paid to pension
ers as first payments on the allow
ance of their claims during 1901 was
So. 934, 764, or $1O6,23s more than the
first payments during 1900. This
amount represents the arrears OF pen
sion, aggregating CTS claims allowed,
to an average of nearly $500 each.
The fees paid to attorneys amount
ed to $591,245, an increase of almost
$4,000, due to the Spanish war AT
least 100000 of the medical examina-
lions held during the year amounted
unfavorably to the claimants. The
amount paid to pensioners under the
general law during the year was S67,-
s67, 233, decrease of s1,79O,953 from
the amount paid last year. 1t is be-
lieved that during the fiscal year OF
1902 the payments under the general
law will be exceeded by those OF pen
sioners under the act OF 1890.
Spanish war pensioners received Sl,.
175,225, an increase over last year OF
Ss4s, 800, and the pensioners under the
act of 1890 as amended May 6, 1900
received $66,073,4S1, an increase over
last year of $1,2O7,4O2.
During the last 30. years the sur

vivors of 1912 and their widows have
received $44,S41, 64s; Mexican war, $780,
o0t.1S7, and Indian wars, $5,402,o54.
The total disbursements for pen
sions from July I, 1890, to June 30 OF
this year aggregate $s,763,35oo33.
There were 45,S60 claimants for PEN
sions during the year. The pension
rolls still contain the names OF one
survivor and 1927 widows on account
of the war of 1912; 1,0S6 survivors
and 3,479 widows on account of In
dian wars, and 1865 survivors and 81
1909 widows on account of the Mexican
war. The bureau issued 1O0,66S GER
tificates of all classes during the year,
1926 being for original pension. The
number of claims pending July last
was 4O3,569.
The statement gives the following

INDIGESTION.

Many things you fear about yo1r stom- ach cannot be true. If you have had in- digestion or dyspepsia for years 1t is na- tuTaI to believe that the stomach itsen IS diseased. It is only the functions of the stomach that are impaired. This is the whole trouble in a vast majority of cases and the proof can be had by trying Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic
 Your stomach has many things to do, and failure to do any one of them leads to imperfect digestion. The stomach gets it's nutriment and its digestive fluids from the blood. If the blood s impure or lacks tho rght proportion of strength producing Iron. the whole body suffers from kind of breaking down process.
 To restore health you must start at the source of life itself-the blood-and through that vital fluid build up the Stom- ach and other vital organs.
 Dr. Harters Iron Tonic has cured thou sands of cases of indigestion and dyspep- sia every year for the past forty-fve years. It is the one remedy you can take with certainty of immediate improvement and a sure cure.
 It is prepared with scientific accuracy and many eminent physicians prescribe 1t constantly. Faithful use of it will en- able you to digest your food as perfectly as you ever have. Prepared only by The Dr. Harter Medicine Co, Dayton. Ohio. Sold everywhere. @

Americans Greatest Coffee Drinkers.

Americans are the greatest coffee drinkers on the face of the globe. and craze is increasing, says The Philadel- phia Times. One-half of the worlds production of the berry is brought to the United States. More than N.00O,- 900 a week is sent out of the country for this article alone. and the worst of it is that all this money goes to for every year the consumption of the bev- eign nations. while American citizens and the people of the recently acquired colonies can supply every need. Porto Rico. Hawaii and the Philippine Is- lands produce a superior quality of cof- fee. commanding high prices in the markets of the world. Porto Rican coffee has long been looked upon as high grade and for many years has commanded high prices in the markets Of Europe.
 The importations of coffee into this country during the nine months end ing with March. 1901. amounted to 617,- 344 000 pounds. with a value of $45,- 31s,OOO. a sum nearly $5,OOO.OoO in ex-

The Death of Jackson.

After all. the poets are the best mem tai barometers of a country, especially in any crisis. and there is no doubt that the death of Gen. Jackson made the South lose heart. It was as though this event was a presage of the end or the struggle. The poem which will be the last one to be quoted, makes this feei- ing very plain, and 1t was probably the echo from the heart of the strongest supporters of the Confederacy. To be sure. they kept up the struggle, but something was gone which had been strong upholding force. It was the in- spiration which came from Jackson. He believed in the righteousness of the cause In which he was engaged. ana he fought with all the devotion or an old crusader. His intensely religious nature mirrored in his everyday ire. made him one of the sort of soldiers of whom Cromwells army was com posed. A noble and a unique person. ality, he stands out a prominent fig ure among the many prominent ones of the war. both of the North and the South.

 Not midst the lightning of the stormy
 fight.
