one Of Castro's young Indian officers, was
asked for a small coin by a little boy who
begged In tho streets. He drew his re-
volver and shot the boy dead ON the spot.
Next day two boy officers were walking
along the street, when one OF them tainted
the other with being bad shot. The
latter lifted his carbine and fred at the head
of a child who was looking out of a top
story window. killing him instantly.
Some foreigners accused these officers
to Gen. Selutini, Castro's right-hand man,
but they were never punished. When they
do such thirgs in the streets Of a crowded
city. it is moi difficult to imo CINE their be-
havior when they are out campa' gniPg.
In Hayti, several years go, the late Gen.
Msnigat, who was then little more than
boy, went thro, Oh the streets OF Jacmei

English. he was numbering half the people

nearly. hundred people were left dead on

savage than the men, especially II their

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

There is only n way to cure deafness

Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-

ilammed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing and when It is
entirely closed. Deafness Is the result
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its

PENSION OFFICE TROUBLES.
Criticism Of Commissioner Ware for
Recent Acts.

Commissioner Ware Of the pension bureau
has in his hands the answer of E. H. Bur-
we'll, clerk In his office, to charges Of con-
duct unbecoming a gentleman and an en-
ploye of the government, but as yet has
taken no action in the case. Burwell. it is
alleged figured in row in q brokers' office
on + street about three months ago, and
was fined IS in the Police Court. The COM
missioner called upon Burwell to explain
his conduct, an account Of the matter hav-
ing reached his ears. Stories of various
kinds gained circulat ton through the publ
cation of the statement that BurWell had
been summoned to show cause why he
should not be dismissed but the commits
sioner states that the facts have not yet
been made public and will not be. Burwell
is popular with his fellow clerks. whose
sympathy he has in his present difficulty.
The commissioner Of pensions has also
aroused some little criticism through the
reduction of Frank w. Vaughn, a veteran
clerk in the pension bureau, from 81 600 to
81 800 a year. 1t is said that Vaughn was
reduced because he drew a pension. This
statement, the pension Office AYERS, is at
variance with the facts. They say there
that Vaughn Is a crippled veteran of the
civil war and draws pension for the loss
of his arm; that he has been valuable
clerk in the bureau for many years, but his
physical condition has become such that he
is not able to perform the work Of the
younger men, and was reduced in order to
get more active man in his place. They
further point out that the reduction is more
than equaliZed by the increase of pension
given him under an act of Congress during
the last session. Mr.. Vaughn is the found
er of the Vaughn class of the Calvary Bap-
list Sunday school and is we'll known
throughout the District.

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK.
Col. Garrard, Acting superintendent
Submits His Report

Lieut.. Col. Joseph Garrard, 14th United
States Cavalry, acting superintendent Of
Yosemite National Park, has submitted his
terror Col. Garrard speaks of the success
that has attended the efforts of those in
charge to preserve the natural wonders of
the park. He refers to the difficulties in
the way of Furnishing violators of the park
rules. He suggests:
THE inadvisability of having the state
grant within the national park is now be-
ing discussed by prominent and influential
residents of this state The idea that
the general government should own the
whole reservation is popular with the pub
obtain possession of the Yosemite valley
from California if the matter were prop
erly brought to the attention of the state
authorities
Every acting superintendent of the park
has felt the necessity for and recommend
ed the enactment of laws prescribing pen
alties for violations of the rules and regl-
lations. In our country. where no man
can be deprived of life, liberty or property
without due process of law, it is plainly i'm
possible for an officer to properly punish
any one for breaking rules and regulations
that have not the sanction of law. Even
when the laws are ignored there is no
way provided for bringing offenders to
trial, there being, l believe, no United
States commissioner or district court with
in 100 miles. / strongly recommend that
this park be made a United States court
district, and a resident commissioner ap-
pointed. The rangers could easily serve as
deputy marshals without interfering with
their other duties.
