Increases Of Pensions.

The United States pension Office has
recently been busy looking up the re-
cords of veterans who have lost limb
or limbs in the service of the country.
By an act of congress dated March 2,
those who have lost hand or foot now
receive $40 per month; those that have
lost an arm at or above the elbow or a
leg at or above the knee SAC per
month; those that have lost an arm at
the shoulder joint, or leg at the hip
joint, $50 per month; those that have
lost one hand and one foot, 800 per
month; those that have lost both feet,
800 per month. The act also provides
the same pension for total disability in
any of the cases instead of the actual
loss of limb. Commissioner Ware has
ruled that new application for pension
is not necessary in these cases. The in
crease will be given from the old rec
ords. The pension of veterans who are
totally deaf has been raised from $50 to
$40 and that of survivors of the Mexican
and Indians wars from IS to $12.

The Paving Question.

The board of public works sent a
communication to the common council
Monday evening protesting against the
use of bituminous macadam for paw
ing on West Main Street, declaring that
there was doubt of the macadam's being
strong enough to hold up heavy loads;
that to lay it was to invite law suit for
infringement of patent; and citing the
fact that in other places it is laid as
cheaply as $f.25 per square yard, while
in this city the price asked is $3.50.
The council received the statement, but
took the power of making contract
for brick out of the hands of the board
by passing a resolution to have rep
resentative of the Barber Asphalt Com
pany and Engineer H. E. Riggs here on
Monday to draw up a macadam contract
for the councils approval

The Vieor-O Factory.

The factory of the Vigor-O Health

rapidly approaching completion, and by
the first of May it is expected the food
will be on the market.
The plant will consist of three build
ings: The old brewery building, two
stories and basement, 40 by 60 feet; the
power house, 40 by 40 feet, one story
twenty feet high; and the new building,
three stories and basement, 80 by II
feet. All are of brick.
The bake oven is in the new build
ing. In it are number of aprons
which move slowly in opposite direc-
tions over fire intensely hot. The food
is subjected to this heat for forty-five
minutes, and travels about 25O feet.
In the new building, also, is mammoth
bin made of planks laid fiat on top OF
each other. This bin will hold five
thousand bushels Of grain.
The factory will run twenty hours
out of the twenty-four, and will turn
out $4,000 pounds of the food every day.
In the basement of the old building il
an artesian well which the vigor-C
Company values very highly, as it fur
nishes pure water in which to cook al
the food.

For School Commissioner.

The nomination of Howard l.. Slocum
by the. Republican convention as its
candidate for county school commission
er, is well received by the voters of the
county, many democrats having ex-
pressed their intention of giving him
their support. Mr.. Slocum will prove
to be very popular candidate.
Mr. Slocum is well acquainted with
the school interests of the county, hav-
ing served for two terms as member
of the board of county school examiners,
and will easily assume the duties of
county school commissioner as his
work as county examiner has been right
in that line.
Mr.. Slocum is native of Shiawassee
county, and attended her district school,
graduating with honor from the Corun-
ma high school. Afterwards he taught
school. and saved his money for two
years term at the state normal, from
which he graduated last June. He is
at present the principal of the Vernon
high school, which district is loath to
part with him, as he is giving them an
excellent school. Mr.. Slocum is well
qualified for the position of school com.
missioner, and will be elected by large
AZ jority -Corunna Journal.

Opposes Tar Macadam.

In view of the controversy over the
paving of west Main street, the follow
ing expression from Cong. Fordney,
published by the Saginaw Courier
Herald, will be of interest at this time:
Congressman J. w. Fordney said yes
terday: please quote me as entirely
opposed to any tar mccadam pavement
on Gratiot avenue. think there have
been enough experiments on that
avenue, and when we pay for another
improvement we should have a perma-
nent one. 1 am satisfied that brick or
asphalt are the most permanent paving
materials. l am told some one has
quoted me as favoring tar macadam.
