PENSION NOT NEEDED.
How a Claimant Was Turned Down
by Commissioner Ware.


washington, Jan, 17.-Comm;esioner
Ware Of the pension Office is somewhat
of a h1norist. and he often lets his
ideas Of humor crop out in his official
opinions. A recent decision ia the case
Of William D. Marsh, who is serving
a lie sentence in the house Of eorrec-
ton in Detroit for robbing the United
states mail in Idaho. is a case in point.
Malsn served ten months in the army
and is an applicant for pension. The
oommissioner holds that ali rights to
pension are barred by conviction of
crime and sentence to prison for life,
and adds:
a pension is for the purpose Of sup
porting a soldier during his declining
Yeas and IS a grs tuity. As the claim
ant IN this case is being very carefully
taken care Of by the government il is
fulfilling its duty 10 him already, and
as this is to continue during the life
Of the claimant for an offense against
the government. it IS not reaso1a bic to
suppose that the case Is within the
purview of the statutes. BY convic-
ton of the crime and sentence to prison
for life the man has become civilly
dead. and 7 do not think that it is an
unfair Interpretation Of the law to
hold that when a man becomes civil1y
dead he becomes dead fo- pensinnabl
purposes; therefore, let the claim be
rejected.

BUCKLEY IN TROUBLE.
Former Salt Lake Man Is Accused OF
Embezzlemcnt.

X. l. Buckley, formerly Of this city
is in trouble at Boise, Ida, where he
has been employed for some time past.
Buckley is charged with having embez-
Zled money belonging TO the Rocky
Mountain Bell Telephone company, and
a warrant for his arrest is now IN the
hands Of the sheriff of that place.
Playing the ponies" is the cause at
tribufed TO Buckley's financial difficult
ties that have led him into trouble.
Buckley was employed as advertis-
ing agent for a recent issue Of the tel
ephone directory. and it is alleged that
he failed to turn in his collections He
disappeared a few days ago from Boise
and an Investigation Of his. reDorts
showed that he had received consider
able money that was not turned into
the company. Just how much Buckley
Is behind in his accounts win not be
known until a careful inspection can be
made.
He has been in the employ of the Bell
Telephone company for years and was
considered trustworthy until lately,
wher he began to play the horse races.
He is said to have patronized the Boise
pool room extensively and bet consid-
cradle money on the races at San Fran
cisco and Oakland.
Buckley left hts wife in a destitute
condition and she is at present COM
PEELED to accept the hospitality of her
landlsdy, whom Buckley owed $50 at
the time Of his disappearance.
Chief of Police Lynch has been noti-
fed Of the affair and asked to keep a
lookout for the missing man. AS Buelz-
ley's home was formerly in this city IL
is thought possible that he may be in
hiding some place here.

How Serum Is Obtained.
The mode OF securing the blood-- 20
ducing serum is simple = spot t.
shaven on the horses neck. An ineis-
ion is made and the jugular vein opened.
A tube is inserted and the blood drawn
of into glass Jars which are anti-septi-
cally clean. The opera eion lasts about
ten minutes. The opening is then closed.
The vein is opened at a point where
the blood flows back TO the heart hav
ing just LETT the lungs in its purest
stage
One operation from the average horse
produces sufficient blood serum to save
the lives OF $50 children
Within twenty-fOur hours the serum
or liquid part Of this blood viii have
separated from the solid part. IT re-
mains then only to decant it and seal it
in small bottles. each cOntaining one
dose. Nothing is added to the serum;
nothing is taken from it. As it comes
from the immunized horse. so it goes
into the human patient. and what Is
drawn from horse one day can be
used the next day TO save child's life.
