RECEIVED CHECKS
FOR PENSIONERS,
Nearly 81, 500 Will Be Distributed In
Sumter.
THREE CHECKS HERE.
Judge Allen Distributed Them Sat-
urdaY Among the Widows and De-
crepld ex Soldiers Who Draw Their
Pittance From the State,

Judge I. M. Allen, of the court of
ordinary, distributed yesterday nearly
s., 500 among Confederate widows and
old Confederate soldiers of Americas
and Sumter county, who are entitled
to draw pensions annually. The ex-
act sum paid out here was 81, $50.
Many of the benefciarIes came for
ward and received their checks.
They range from S. to 800, the first
amount being for the loss of a finger
and the 800 check for the loss of a
limb. A majority of the checks were
for $50 and $50 each.
There are twenty-three widows here,
and these receive $50 each. Besides
these Spartan women there are fifty
old soldiers here who draw a pension,
making total of seventy-three checks
received. Only pensioners who have
drawn heretofore are included.
Bat there are many poor and really
needy old soldiers in Sumter who can
not get upon rolls, because they can
not get all the witnesses and evidence
required by the state.
Many very worthy ones here have
thus been turned down by the depart
ment in recent years.
Then, too, the rolls are full Some
few of those IN Americas who draw
their annual stipend are welI-to-do
people; own beautiful homes and fine
plantations. But they are wounded
veterans and, under the law, are en-.
titled to draw along with the poorest
eomrade,
But many a poor old fellow, really
needy and in direst want, cannot gel
on the honor roll because it is full Oh
his 'papers" are irregular.

BERTHS

SOFT PLACES ARE PLENTIFUL
And the Georgia Boys Will Receive

Are Working Hard.

Senator Bacon has filed with the
War Department formal endorsement
orders fer appointment to the regular
army of every Georgia officer now in
the Philippines according to the rank
each now holds in the volunteer ser
vice. In all of these cases he has
written special requests that the APP
pointments be made.
He has also added his endorsement
to the applicatioE.o of such officers of the
third Immune Regiment, and of the
Georgia regiments recruited for the
Spanish War, as may desire to enter
the service as lieutenants.
Senator Clay has made similar re
Communications, and each of the mem
bers of the House are looking after IN
terests of men from his district. They
are all ready and willing to aid not
only those already holding commits
sions, but men in the ranks who can
fill the requirements,
In other words, nobody is being
sighted, be he officer or private.
1t is taken for granted at the War
Department that the men now in the
Philippines will be given the first
chance at these regular army berths,
then will come the volunteers like
Rays Immunes who saw service in
Cuba, and after them the men who vol
unteered for the Cuban war
OF course political pull will, however,
have a good deal to do with it,

FIFTY DOLLARS FOR MONUMENT
Macon Citizen Makes a Liberal Con.
tribution.

Mrs. John A. Cobb, representing
both the Ladies' Memorial Association
and Daughters of the Confederacy,
received yesterday a check for fifty
dollars from Captain J. Marsh John
ston, of Macon, as donation in aid
ing these ladies in paying the balance
due upon our beautiful Confederate
monument. Captain Johnston is q
veteran of the Lost Cause and one of
Georgis's best and most prominent
men. He owns large planting inter
ests in this county, and feels a great
interest in anything that concerns old
Sumter. This contribution to our
Confederate monument comes as q
natural impulse of his great and no.

AN INJUNCTION WAS REFUSED
And Erection of Planning Mill Will

Judge Littlejohn rendered decision
yesterday in the case of certain resi-

Garfield, praying that the latter be re-
strained permanently from erecting
and operating a planning mill near
the Furlow street crossing of the Sea-
board Railway. The Injunction was
refused, and Messrs. Lane & Garfield
may proceed with the erection of their
mill. Complainants alleged that the
noise from such mill would be an an
noyance and its near proximity to their
homes might increase danger from fire.
