PENSION COMES TOO LATE
Captain Van Houten of First South
DakOt Dies Before Bill
is Signed.

HOT SPRINGS, S.. D.. June 29.-(Special.)
Captain c. p. VanHouten, who served so
faithfully with the First South Dakotas in
the Philippines, where he contracted con-
sumption, died here yesterday. He had
spent the last year here, hoping to be bene-
fitted, but the disease had become too deep
seated. In fact, he overdid himself while
serving in the Philippines and his ply
sicians declared upon his return to the
United States that he had broken himself
down and had cut short his life. He made
a gallant fight for life, as he did for his
country, and but for his wonderful con-
stitution cnd great will power he would
have died months ago. His wife, child aud
parents were with him at death. The re-
mains will be taken to his old home at
Canton, S. D., for burial.

well. He was an excellent officer and did

pretty strict. but that was discipline, you
know. and he was a strict disciplinarian.
Judge hubbard was always ready for
a march or a fight, and stayed right by
his company from first to last. The Tween

Of the hardest Of the minor engagements
OF the war. Later II was in the campaign
about Nicksburg. 1t was then sent to Port

Mobile campaign, and was in one of the
last engagements of the war, the charge

the campaigning to the last, and was In
the fight at Fort Blakely.
"I remember one incident Of him in par
ticular. 1t was on one of the regiment s
forced marches. The order TO halt had
been given to allow the men a rest. Cap
tain Hubbard supposed the regiment would
stop long enough to allow him to boil
some coffee. He got out his old coffee
boiler, put some water in II and some sticks
under 1t and started a fire. He had Just
got nicely under way when the order to
fall in was given. Well, you know how
he could swear. He swore and 'cussed'

while. and then, walking up to the fire,
he gave that cofee-boiler a kick that sent
II spinning ten feet away. 1t was laugh
able. Then came the m Company

Mr.. Cummins, alluded to above, was at
the state house yesterday, and was with
Captain Parmelee while the latter was

is now a wealthy citizen of Oklahoma. He,
as well as Captain Parmelee, gave testi-

Hubbard. The Twentieth regiment is now
