the Catholic church forbids the use
of the religious portion of any ritual
other than it's own over the bodies of
it's members. If any other ritual is
used that conflicts with the law. then
the church cannot hold services over
the body. The religious portion of the
G.. A, r. ritual is prayer offered by
the post chaplain. This part of the
ritual conflicts with the laws of the
church. AS Commander Edwards and

Buried in Fairview Cemetery.
Colonel ]. l.. Morris, the old soldier
and scout, who served his country
faithfully during his active days, was
laid to rest in Fairview cemetery this
afternoon.
The ritual services of the Grand
Army were observed, and the flag for
which the colonel fought was wrapped
about him. The funeral took place at
the parlors of ]. w. Edwards and was
largely attended by all the old soldiers
and members of the Woman's Relief
Corps.
The following statement was Issued
by the G. X. Warren post:
To the Public.
The committee appointed by the G
X. Warren post, Grand Army of the
Republic, desires to thank all who gen,
erously subscribed toward the burial
of Comrade J. l.. Morris. This being
the third comrade we have buried
within three months our funds are eX-
haustel, or We should not have called
on the public for help. Santa Fe post
to which he belonged, drained their
treasury caring for him. Our post
spent some $50 caring for him, but in
his weak and feeble condition of body
and mind he refused to listen to what
we wished to do for him. AS last re
sort we called on the city marshal and
city physician to compel him to go to
the sanitarium some ten days before
his death Still we looked after him
and gave him cheer, times without
number. He requested that when he
died we wrap the flag around him and
have the Grand Army bury him with
out religious services other than the
simple ritual of the Grand Army.

to marry again. The crown prince ap-

not refuse under the new civil code,
which King George himself designated
as governing the proceedings. The
princess, however, cannot marry Giron

THIRTY NEW BRIGADIERS.
A Number Of Veterans are Promoted and
Retired.

Both the President and the Secretary of
War recommended to the last session of
Congress the passage of an act authorizing
the retirement Of all officers Of the war of
the rebellion now on the active list with
the grade next above that held by them
at the time Of arriving at the retirement
age. In accordance with these suggestions
bill passed the Senate, but failed of pas
sage in the House because Of disagree
ment of the Conference Committee The
fact that the Senate accepted his opinion
Of the proper thing to do in the premises
encouraged the President to proceed along
the lines he had suggested, and to retire
all such officers with the advanced rank
in spite of the non-concurrence Of the
House.
In the exercise Of his prerogative, the
President now has a goodly number of
promotions on his hands and has made
them public.
Maj-Gen. Davis retires July 26, and
Gen. Nelson A. Miles on Aug. 8. These
retirements make way fog nearly SO pro-
motions which the President some time
ago decided upon. Malice Samuel B.

ant-General Of the Army. 4 Brighten. S. S.

Gen. Young will hold the position of
Lieutenant General exactly one week. At
that time the provisions Of the act to in
crease the efficiency of the Army which
became law by the Presidents signature
Feb. IA, 1903, will go into effect, and Gen.
Young will become Chief of Staff, as de-
cided upon by the President at the time
that the bill was introduced.
Since this reorganization law makes
such sweeping changes in the old Army
organization, its provisions may interest

and cancer of the hand July IA, and was

last surviving charter member of Kit
Carson Post, 2, of the District. and had
fine military record. He enlisted in
1861, at st. Louis, and participated in the
battle of Wilson's Greek and others of
that campaign. Later etentered the Goth
ILL.,, and fought at Forts Henry aud Don
elson. At Donelson he was wounded in
the hip and side, and discharged for his
disabilities. He re-enliSted in the SD
ILL.,, and became a Captain. He was in nu-
merous battles as member of Rous-
seau's Division, and was finally placed in
command of battalion of infantry, per-
forming efficient service in Kentucky and

Senator William Stewart. of Nevada,
has sold his dairy. Selling milk is queer
sort of business for a supposedly rich
United States Senator. but that is just
what Senator Stewart has been doing for
some time. OF course, he did not peddlc
it around himself, but it was his proper
ty, and he took an active interest in it. He
appeared very actively, also, in the mat
ter of giving the District n supply of pure
milk when the subject was before the
Commissioners few weeks ago One
milk dealer insisted at that time that it
was unnecessary for him to have his milk
cans rinSed out before returning them to
the dairy, even though maggots did breed
in them, as was proved by several wit
ncsses. To the objection that the milk
this dealer sold was often sour by the
time he delivered it, he responded that
lots of people liked sour milk and bought
it of him. He declared that sour milk
was healthy. Senator Stewart roasted
this dealer to q finish at the time, and the
order to rinse out the milk cans carried.
This dealer declared that having to rinse
out his milk cans would bankrupt him.

| Surely it is not to be wondered at that
an organ that has such an immense
amount of work to do as the heart should
be affected when exhausted by the use Of
coffee, tobacco or other heart stimulants.
or by wearing the clothing so tight that 1t
interferes with its proper action.
How this may come about is to some
extent explained by comparing the heart
with the eye. The distinctiveness of sight
is under control of a little muscle of the
eye. When this becomes very tired from
oyerwork or weakness, like all other mus
cles, it is liable to relax. Then the eye is
out of focus and blurs.
When weakened by disease or overwork,
the heart becomes tired in consequence OF
| its immense strain. and many disastrous
results may occur if it is not strengthened
and its powers restored. Thus the over
taxed fibers relax like the muscle in the
eye, and the oyerworked brain no longer
receives the necessary amount of blood.
Then fainting takes place. Should the
heart muscles remain entirely relaxed for
a minute or two as that of the eye fre-
quently does, the person drops dead.
If your heart autters or palpitates; il
you suffer from shortness of breath or
smothering spells frequently at night,
causing you to sit up in bed to breathe; if
the feet and ankles frequently swell; il
the extremities are often cold, showing
thin blood and poor circulation; if you
can not sleep lying on your left side; if
you suffer from pain in the left side or in
the region of the heart, your heart is weak
or diseased, and treatment should not be
delayed single day.

Post Office Scandal.

Controller Tracewell and his expert ac-
countants in the Treasury Department
have concluded an examination of the ac-
counts of Cornelius NanCott, Postma ster
of New York, for the quarter ending
Dec. 81, 1902, and in consequence pay
ment of salary to II. G. Graft has been
held up. Van Cott had him on the pay
roll of the New York Pest Office, when
he had not been in New York for months.
and was drawing salary in the Wash
ington office at the same time.
George w. Beavers, former Superin-
tendent of the Division of Salaries and
Allowances, has been indicted on two
counts by the Brooklyn Grand Jury
These are the latest developments in the
Post Office scandal. =.
Representative Loud, of California, who
was Chairman of the Committee on Post
Offices and Post Ronds, used to declaim
in the House against the awful expendi-
lures in the Post Office Department, and
often declared that many shady trans
actions were done in the Department, but
Congress just laughed at Mr.. Loud. He
tried on more than one occasion to have
an overhauling of affairs. but Congress
laughed him to scOrn. He was almost
moved to tears one day when the House
rejected some reform measures which
he had tackled upon Post Office bill.
1t now begins to look as though Con-
gress had method in its madness. There
are good many names mixed up in these
Post Office investigations, which have
figured on the rolls of the House, and
some are there yet. Mr.. Loud himself
has been touched" but it may be that
he saw so many good things floating
round that he concluded that he might as
well be ''heeled" as anybody. Those who
can hark back to "Star Route" days have
concluded that the old hands at the bust
ness of lootng the Post Office Treasury
are not in it with the new ones at the
helm.
Meantime, the good name of the United
States is being injured. Oh, the shame of

Architect Woods is busying himself in
securing for the new House Office Build
ing the plat of ground on which the Con-
gressional Hotel now stands. There is a
statute which bars all those employed by
the Government being interested in any
contract with the Government, or in negc-
tiating sales to the Government of any
thing. Architect Woods is married to the
daughter of the late Col. Brock, who
owned the Congressional Hotel, and that
particular piece of land will have to be
purchased from her. Several people have
been questioning whether Architect Woods
came in conflict with the law in this mat
ter.
