SEEKING MONEY
PAID SUBSTITUTES
Men Who Hired Soldiers When
Drafted for War Want
Money Back.

Washi,ngtno, Nov. 10.-Many inquiries
are received at the pension bureau from
all parts of the country, asking if law
has been enacted reimbursing those who
paid money to be exempt from draft in
1S63-64, but the pension officials point
out that there has been no legislation to
warrant the reports which led to,the in
quir1es. Deputy Commissioner of Pen
sions Davenport today said:
HThe pension bureau has no knowl-
edge of proposed law of this kind and
it is little strange that anyone would

it. became necessary in some states to
resort to draft to fill town quotas. Any
one could purchase exemption for.
fixed price. In many towns that price
was 5000. It was simply barter and
trade arrangement between the man liza
BILE to be drafted and the town. The
man purchased exemption upon paying
his $500. This money was used by the
town to hire a substitute to serve in
the place Of the man who purchased his
right to stay at home. The question
is docs the man receive the full equiv
alent of his money! It seems that
he did, as at that time the regular price
for substitute was. something like
$500. The town was compelled to add
5000 to the 5000 it had received from
the exempted man to purchase his sub
stitute. h..
"Somebody must be laboring under
the impression that these drafted men
should be reimbursed for this $500. It
does not look that way to- an outsider.

London.-Mrs. Mercer Pell, who made
a success of the Dysart hotel, Caven.
dish square, which she has managed for
over a year, and who is now t'on the
other side' endeavoring to be- freed CT
her husband, has come in for a great
stroke of luck.
Mrs. Lee, the American proprietress
Of the Dysart hotel, which has been the
fashionable center for Americans for
many months past, decided some weeks
ago that she could not afford to keep
Mrs. Pell as manageress any longer, and
has once again taken possession of the
hotel. But Mrs. Pell made so many
friends and managed the hotel SO ex-
cellently that she has received and ac-
cepted an offer to manage the Grand
hotel at Harriwgate, a very fashionable
watering place for English invalids, at
a salary Of $4,000 per annum.
When Mrs. Pell secures her divorce
shewill settle down at Harrowgate with
her little boy, and she. is certain to Sc
cure an immense American clientele. She
is very good looking, very smart, and an
excellent business woman. Ono of her
friends is Major Holford, the kings ia

occupied by Whitelaw Reid, the Ameri-
can ambassador.

OIL KING IS BACK OF
BIG ORCHESTRA PLAN
5puYual Speoial Service.

New York, Nov. 1o.-A well-known
musician is responsible for the story
that there is plan on foot for a new
musical organization being planned for
New York, with a celebrated musical
conductor of Europe as it's leader, and
that the proud position now held in this
country by the Boston Symphony is
what the men back Of the plan aspire to.
The interesting fact of the story is
to the effect that the big figure Of the
new movement is none other than J ohm
D. Rockefeller. '' -,-." .,@ =. .--s>
That Mr.. Rockefeller should consent
to be the principal hacker Of a new
symphony orchestra is not SO remark

cording to the editor Of the: Musical
Courier, who has had the opportunity

Kenosha, Wis, Nov. 10.-Unable to-
get paper on which to print the weekly
issues of the Leaves Of Healing, with
the stock that they had been keeping
constantly on hand all gone, the print
ing forces Of Zion City are facing the
hardest pinch of all. The paper houses
will trust Dowie no more. .,...-
The state Of difficulty may be fairly
permanent by the tidings from Mexico
that Dowie is shrunken and shriveled
and crippled by the aftermath Of his
second attack of paralysis.
This is the first time in seven years
that the weekly issue Of Leaves of
Healing has been held up. The paper
is the mouthpiece of Zion, and thru it
more converts have been made than by
Dowie himself.
The ostensible reason of Dowie IS
homecoming by way Of New York is
the benefit Of the sea air.
The real reason is stated to be that
he intends bonding the entire Lake
county city Of Zion in pursuance of
the policy of booming the Mexican
plantation, and that he is seeking New
York capital for this purpose. =,

it follows that every assistance pos

All men should be as honest
in politics as in personal business

him several years ago. Whatever
it was he has tried to reward me
for it ever since with his implaca-
BILE ,enmity, and during the last five
ears he has tried in every way 10
destroy me. One reason probably
of this hostility is because | did not
employ his law firm of Blackburn q
Black burn, Washington, d. c., to
collect the Civil War claim which
Capt. Calhoun succeeded in collect
ing for the State. 1t should be re-
mem bered that Senator Blackburn
was among those who fought me IN
1908 and sought to deprive me OF
any credit for the collection of that
large amount of money for the
State. 1t was charged by some
that any of our Senators or Cou-
gressmen could have collected il
without cost, and Senator Black
burn was in the Senate during that
time drawing a salary from the
Government.
"But instead oigiving any aid to-
ward the collection oft and not-
withstsding that he ives a Senator
from the State, he had his law
partenr of Washington 30 write me

it with his political leaders on the
question of calling an extra SEES
sion of Congress with the view OF
adjusting the tariff The leaders
claim the DINGHY bill good enough
