An HI Smelling Mess Exposed In the
 Wood InvestiEation.

An HI Smelling Mess Exposed In the
 Wood investigation.
 General Wood is very fortunate in having as his most inveterate enemies Senator Hanna and Major Rathbone of Cuban postal frauds fame. It Is generally understood that Hanna Is obliged to back up Rathbone. who de eiared that if be was not taken care of he would pull down the pillars of the Republican temple. When Senator Hanna was elected to the senate six years ago there were serious charges made against him of purchasing enough Republican members of the Ohio legislature to make the one ma tority by which he was elected. Rath' bone was also charged with being the lobbyist who fixed the legislators. Thus there is fellow feeling between Hanna and Rathbone. The reward of the latter was the soft snap in Cuba. where he came to grief and where he became acquainted with the extrava- gant regime of the presidents friend The charges made by Rathbone and others against General Wood are nucl more serious than extravaganza. but the full evidence has never seen thf light. Wood having been whitew ashef by Secretary Root. Now Rafhbone has the opportunity to prove his charges before the senate committee.
 But these charges, though serious. art foreign to the real issue against th1 confirmation of General Wood as mn for general. His promotion by Presl dent Roosevelt over the heads of tn veteran soldiers who have done ter times as much to merit promotion a the presidents particular friend is tn important question for the senate to de eide. Of course if Major Rathbone cal prove his charges against Genera Wood that officer should be court uaI tiaied and dismissed from the arui, whether he is the friend of the presi dent or not. but in any event his promo tion over the heads of more deserviEl officers is a scandal and subversive c good order and discipline of the army Fayoritism in the army and navy un-Americap and cannot be tolerate is issusseNcE PREVENTS BALDNEss.

Tinted spectacles For BEAUTY.

Tinted spectacles,' said an optician,
who displays a sign advertising that
he makes a speciality of them, fare
mainly for women who demand that
their beauty, as well as their sight,
shall be considered. A light gray or a
pale blue eye looks very weak and I'M
attractive through ordinary eyeglasses.
By slightly tinting the lens we can add
very much to the color of the pupil Of
the eye and to the general attractive
ness of the face. Some oculists send
us prescriptions for tinted glasses,
maintaining that for blue or gray eyes
they are far superior to the ordinary
crystal glasses. Blue eyes absorb more
light than brown eyes, so that any
tempering of the SUMS rays is sure to
be Observation-Disclosures.

DEFENDS PENSION ORDER

Senate Inquiry.

holds New Age Regulation.

Washington. d. C.-Secretary Hitch
cock replied to the Senate resolution
of inquiry regarding the issuance of
the recent pension order ~allotting pen
sions to old soldiers over sixty-two
years of age and the probable in
creased expenditures resulting there
from. The estimated increase i'll PEN
sion payments according to the depart
ment's figures. is S., 0 900 a year.
In his reply Secretary Hitchcock
says the recent order merely regulated
the administration of che act of 1890,
and was not to be considered as en-
larging the provisions of that act or in
any way to affect it's just i%nterpreta-
ton.
AS some misunderstanding with ref
erence to the Interpretation and pur-
pose of this order exists, a brief review
of pension legislation and the admin
istration in the department is SUBJ
mitted by Secretary Hitchcock to show
that the order referred to is clearly
within executive authority and in con-
formity with existing law and methods
which had heretofore prevailed in its
administration. He said:
Before the act of June 81, 1890. no
pensions were granted except upon
proof that the death or disab ility for
which the pension was sought resulted
from actual service. This act. how
ever, provides that any person who
had served ninety days or more. and
who had been honorably discharged
should receive q pension of not less
than Sc nor more than $12 per month
if proof were furnished that he was
suffering from a permanent disability
not the result of vicious habits. which
incapacitated him from the perform
ance Of manual labor in such a degree
as to render him unable to earn a sun.
port
Disability, partial OF complete. to-
perform manual labor is the sole meas.
ure of the right to a pension under
this act"
The Secretary then quotes notable
decisions and orders in this line. made
by the Pension Bureau in 1S93-97. and
says:
Although age i'll connection with
other disabilities has always been con.
sidered in determining pension ratings
under the act. there has never been
any uniform rule for rating the inirm-
tiles due TO the element of age. with
the exception of the two classes named.
Such ratings. therefore, seem to have
been governed by the varying opinions
of the many who have been occupied
with that duty. thereby imparting to
that feature of pension administration
something of uncertainty and Unequal.
ity.
An order lays down as a convenient
rule of decision and a REPUTABLE pre-.
sumption of fact. that n who is 9th.
erwise entitled to a pension and is
sixty-two years of age is partially dis.
abled from earning a livelihood by his
hands; that n who is sixty-five is
more disabled for manual work; that
one who is sixty-eight is in a still
greater degree incapable of earning a
support by manual labor. and that one
of seventy is completely disabled in
this regard. Certainly. such a pre-.
sumption is justified by general expe-
rience in actual life.

SENATOR BURTON IS GUILTY
United States Senator Convicted on
Six Counts.
JURY OUT OVER FORTY HOURS

Kansas Senator Was Charged With Ac
cepting Compensation to Protect tn
Interests of a st. Louis Company-On
Juror Held Out For Acquittai-Hi
Lawyers Make Motion For New Trial
st. Louis, Mo.-United States Sena
tor Joseph Ralph Burton, of Kansas
was found guilty by a jury in the Uni
ted States District Court here of 6
violation of Section 1882 of the Re
vised Statutes. The jury had been out
forty hours.
Sentence al deferred by Judge Ell
mer B. Adams, before whom the triaI
was held, and Burton was released I'M
der q $4,000 bond to report to The
court at such time as he may be re-
quired. The Senator was in court and
heard the verdict. He looked as if he
was going to collapse when the clerk
read it. After the matter of bail was
arranged Burton left the court room,
refusing to say a word about the case.
Burton's attorneys filed a motion for
arrest of Judgment and a new trial.
This will be passed upon later.
Senator Burton was found guilty on
six counts of the indictment, all those
on which the Government had based
Its case.
Senator Burton was placed on trial
under an indictment of nine counts
charging him with accepting, while a
member Of the Senate, compensation
from the Rialto Grain and Securities
Company, a st. Louis get-rich-quick
concern, to represent it as an attorney
in a case pending against the concern
before the Postoifice Department at
Washington.
For a time there threatened to be a
disagreement in the jury. The jury
was brought before Judge Adams, who
asked the cause of the long delay. He
was told that eleven jurors had agreed,
but the twelfth stood alone. The
court admonished the lone juror that
the expense of a new trial should not
be incurred because Of his failing to
agree with the majority of the jurors.
A precedent was quoted, showing that
the majority of the Jurors should de-
eide the case before them and a ver-
dict be rendered accordingly. The jury
was then told to go back and poll it's
vote once more.
Soon afterward the jury reported,
bringing in a verdict, but Judge Adams
found that the third count in the in
dictment had not been considered, and
again he sent the jury back to consid-
er the case, without having announced
the verdict returned.
The thru time the jury entered the
court room the result Of its delibera-
lions was announced, and United
States Senator Burton stood convicted
on the charges brought against him in
the indictment.
The penalty for conviction under
Seof,on 1882, is imprisonment in the
penitentiary not to exceed two years, a
6ne not to exceed $4,000 and forfeit
ure Of Office. The person convicted is
forever debarred from holding an office
Of public trust.
Senator Burton was indicted in Jan
uary last. Although as a member of
Congress he could not be arrested I'M
til after that body adjourned, he vol
unfairly surrendered himself to the
prosecuting authorities. He still had
two years to serve in the Senate.
