TO BE KEPT IN TRUST.
At Present Money Except 81 a
Month Goes to InStitu-
tiOn.

New regulations in regard to pen
sions at the Soldiers home will 90 intos
effect the beginning of the next fiscal
year. Heretofore it has been a law
that all pensions going to inmates of
homes should be turned into the gen.
eral fund of the house except 50 per
month which went to the pensioner.
According to law passed by the last
congress all pensioners at any home
receive their entire pension. None
goes to the home.
Instead the money istaken in charge
by the superintendent, or treasurer
and kept in trust. Should the PEN
sioner leave the home he draws his
money, and in case he is discharged
he cannot return to the home under
six months. In case of death the
money goes to the legal heirs. II no
claim is made for the funds within
three years it goes to the home.
In addition to his duties S superin-
tendent of the home Col Harmon is
also treasurer and will have charge of
all the money received. The govern
ment aid amounting to 500 per year
for each man yet continues.

prices at 10 and 20 cents. Ladies
night will be Tuesday. Below is an
article from Glens Falls, n. Y, where
the Company is playing this week
Undoubtedly the best repertoire
company, which has been at the En-
pire for several seasons, is the Lorne
Elwyn Stock company, which opened
a weeks engagement last evening
with the production of Crossroads of
Crime. The play was not the ordi-
nary three acts of blood, guns and
schemes, with happy ending in the
fourth act, but was just the sort of a
production that pleases an audience
admiring repertoire.
Gladys Grey and Lorne Elwyn in
the leading roles, received much ap-
plause, denoting the appreciation of
the large sized audience.
The specialties we're all above the
average Of excellence, particularly the
tumbling of Wonder and Bellmare and
the lightning change artists, Norton
and Russell.
