second that it is possible to immunize the
animal organism against tuberculosis. as is
done in other diseases. and that there is
good reason to hope for an anti-tuberculosis
vaccination for man. The paper told of
many experiments VITA animals and then
with men. The italian physician declares
that his vaccination is certain cure in the
early stages of the disease, and aids great

Amount of Increase.

Secretary Hitchcock's letter is accom-
panied by a letter from Acting Commits
sioner Of Pensions Davenport, who says
Commissioner Wares order does not en-
large but simply construes the pension act
of June q, $780, and its amendments. Mr.
Davenport says:
1.-The amount the order will increase PEN
sions annually, and particularly when the
same shall become fully operative, can
be only roughly estimated There are sup
posed to be living today about S75, coo ex-
Union soldiers of the civil war. OF these
pensioned under The actsof July A.
1862 known as the general law, about
265, eco. and under the act of June 81, $780,
about 423,000 aggregatfng G93. 900, which,
deducted from the whole number of sur
vivors. leaves 900 who have not appl ed
for pension. To state definitely how many
of this number failed to serve the required
ninety days and receive final honorable
discharge would be impossible. One-fourth
seems fair estimate and reduces the
number to 10000 To say that 1900 of
these have reached the age of s:xiy-two
and will apply seems reasonable esti
mate. II these 10 900 are all placed the
rolls at Sc month or $T2 a year. the
output for pensions win be increased $5,-
400 GEO annually.
1.-The pension roll is diminishing rapidly.
owing to deaths of benefieiares; and in
all probability this decrease win offset any
gains caused by claims of soldiers to have
reached the age of sixty-five and upward"

1t has been said with some reason that
morality is question of geography; the
program played by the Washington SYM
phony Orchestra at the concert referred to
would not have been considered In any
country of Europe as anything but. good
and dignified program of high-class music,
and l therefore fail to see why it should be
regarded differently in this country. why
the author of this letter should consider
the Songs Without Words by Mendelssohn
more sacred in character than the Peer
Gynt suite by Grieg, masterpiece OF one
OF the great composers of our time, entirely
passes my comprehension. l would say
further, to correct mis-statement, that L
did not attempt 10 enlist the clergy of this
town as advertising agents in asking them to
announce these concerts from their puIpitS,
as 1 made no such request. My whole con-
tention has simply been that good music is
always good music, whether played on Sun
day, Monday or Tuesday; that no possible
harm could accruesto any one from hearing
such music on airy day; and, Furthermore,
that the very large number of people who
are attending these concerts are probably
thus occupying their time better than they
otherwise might. / would also like to say
that the Sunday evening concert is plant
of recent growth in the churches. / well
remember that my father. agreeing with
other well-known clergy of his time, very
strongly deprecated the Sunday evening

A Convenient Rule.

THE order in question merely lays down
as convenient rule of decision, and a re-
buttable presumption of fact, that one who
is otherwise entitled and is slxty-two years
of age is partially disabled from earning a
livelihood by his hands; that one who is
sixtyfive 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 re-
gard Certainly such presumption is jus
titled by general experience in actual life.
When 1T is understood that, In the adj
publications under this act, age has always
been considered factor with other dis
abilities; and when 1t is further considered
that, for more than ten years, there has
been an established rating 0he maximum
allowed by law), based solely ON the age
of seventy-five years, and that for nearly
seven years, there has been an established
rating 0he minimum provided by law)
based alone on the age Of sixty-fve years.
1t will be apparent how largely problemati-
cal must be any estimate of increase of
expenditures under the order Of March 10,
1904
+. The acting commissioner of pensions
has given attentive consideration to the
second paragraph of the resolution and,
by reference to his report, 1t will be seen
that he estimates that the order of March

A blond young man, blessed witt
twinlding blue eyes, finally came to
the booth. After studying the morose
physiognomy for awhile he snddenly
reached toward the chief and with
clever sleisht-of hand picked quarter
from the Indians coat lapel.
Geronimo started, looked at his Wis
itor. examined the quarter. felt the
coat. The other medicine man again
stretched his hand TO the lapel and
this time found a halfdollar. quite as
if the money had been snug;y resting
there Whereat Geronimo lost his
epnanimity completely--wok entire
ly from his previous state of sullen
boredom.
The visiting magician then wrapped
penny in one handkerchief and a
second copper in another handker-
chief, all within the plain sight of the
chief. and then when he opened the
two folds 10 and behold, both pennies
were in the one handkerchief. Old
Geronimo carefully inspected the
handkerchiefs and the pennies. but
evidently found no clew to the mys-
terry. for he ended by ciapping his
hands in approval and bowing his re-
spects TO so powerful medicine man.
AT this juncture the Indian appeared
to think It was time TO save his repu-
tation. He reached for his old drum,
which is nothing more than followed
wood with hides stretched over both
ends. He took up his drumsticks,
after elaborate preparation and show

happened, except that after beating

old voice into song.
