On Thursday, January 20, 1903,

Dunleith, and plucked from their
arms their infant son Otis, aged
year, months and 81 days.

better for the little hands that their
work is finished before growing toll

little heart will never know the
aches and pains that the world
would bring; better that the little

WAsHNGToN, ID. g., Feb. a.
Representative lIemenwsy has pre-.
pared service pension bill in line
with Senator Scott's suggestion in
his resolution for the appointment
of committee te revise the pension
laws. The bill authorizes a pension
of $l2 per month to all honorably
discharged soldiers and sailors who
served ninety days or over in the
army or navy Of the United States
in the war of the rebellion, and pro-
vides that an honorable discharge
and proper identification shall be
the only voucher required. The
widow of such soldier or sailor who
was married prior to June 27, 1890,
is also made beneficiary.
