A Logan, Mrs. George B. Mcclellan
(mother of the present mayor of New
York;, and Mrs. Frank Blair, widow
OF the famous Gen. Blair.
Eighteen widows of generals and ad-
miraIs draw $1,000 year in pension
money; six get 5000 per annum, and
200 surviving relicts of distinguished
army and navy officers receive 5000.
1t will thus be seen that the govern
ment pays annually to 230 widows
total of S165, 000-an amount as great
as is checked out in the same length
of time to 2,29S veterans at Sc
month. This is not meant to imply
that the widows get a cent more than
they ought to have, but merely to call
attention to the fact that the old sol
diers do not absorb all the cash that
is paid out of the much abused pension
appropriation.
The widows to-day occupy the most
conspicuous place on the pension rolls.
The ranks of the veterans are steadily
thinning at the rate of $4,000 a year,
but not SO the widows, who are con-
tlnually becoming more numerous.
Before very long they will exceed the
old soldiers numerically on the civil
war list, and it has been reckoned by
the pension bureau that in 1886 about
1000 widows of men who fought in
the civil war will be alive and pulling
a small but regular. income out of
til treasury. Many girl babies are
still to be born who are destined to be
widows of the civil war.
The reason is simple and easily ex-
planned. Aged veterans with small but
certain incomes are always in demand
as husbands, no matter how stricken
in years and decrepit they my be.
Commonly they prefer young wives,
and so it comes about that, when they
come to die, they leave behind them
large flocks of comparatively youthful
widows There is at present only one
surviving veteran of the war of 1912,
but there are 1917 widows of veterans
of that conflict on the pension rolls.
The last soldier who fought in the rev.
olution, Daniel F. Brakeman, died April
6, 1869. in the village of Freedom, N.
Y. aged 100. but quite number of
revolutionary widows saw the TWEEN
tieth century dawn. and the last of
them is not dead yet
Only one widow Of the revolution
row remains, however, two having
died during the last year. This soli-
tary survivor is Mrs. Esther S. Damon,
and she lives at Plymouth Union, VT

Youths Compelled to Undergo Ordeal
by Torture.


When fifteen years of age the lib
etan boy is required to go through an
initiation ceremony prior to becoming
an active member of the tribe This
function is accomplished by the most
trying ordeals, being carried on before
a council of chiefs and lamas, who
closely watch the youth while he is be-
ing subjected to such inhuman torture
as being strung up by the thumbs and
burned with red-hot irons. If he
passes through this ordeal without
manifesting signs of pain, the next
stage of his initiation is proceeded
with. Should he fail, his lot is far
worse than that of the most miserable
slave; he is cruelty beaten and abused
and subjected to the contumely of all,
until the unfortunate wretch gladly
ends his existence Having passed the
first stage, the youth is isolated in a
hut at some distance from the village.
is denied food. and goes through a
lengthy period of starvation, being Wis
tied by the priests, who provide him
with slips of prayer paper, and teach
him the precepts of the religion of his
fathers. On his release he must give
proofs of his prowess as a hunter or
warrior, else he cannot enter the
tribe as a member

Mintos Popular in Canada.

In October the earl and countess of
Mimic and their daughters will depart
from the government house in OF
tawa, and a new governor general
will come in This is sad blow
socially to the dominion, for the
Mintos were popular in every way and
made the Ottawa season the liveliest
known. Being young and fond of
gayety, Lady Mimic was an ideal
woman in that position. In the United
States she was liked equally as well.
She was a guest of the w. Seward
Webbs In Vermont, of James ]. Van
Allen In Newport and of William c.
Whitney. Lady Mimic is really a
beauty, although in street attire she
