Off the Straight and Narrow Path

When man is driven to the wall,
is caught squarely, and has no legiti-
mate excuse, the best thing he can do
is to own up to the fact and have it
over. For that reason, though it
grieVeS US SOrely, we must acknowledge
that part Of our Office force have
strayed from the straight and narrow
path. Jonah, the office cat, the mar
vel of the age, in fact the only cat we
ever saw that could set type, use a
typewriter. and feed job press, i'm
bibed too freely on Christmas day,
and his actions were truly scandalous
Jonah saved months pay TO use on
Christmas, and through some bad
friends, evidently spent his money in
a bad way. At least it was not till
Saturday noon that he showed up at
the Office, battered, scratched, chewed
up, one ear looking like an arrange
ment to shoe flies; in fact ''all in"
He shamefacedly acknowledged his
sin, and upon his penitent appeal, he
has been taken into the fold again, on
probation. We couldn't help forgiv-
ing him at this time Of the year, but
if the offense is repeated, outraged
humanity must be avenged and.Jonah,
once our pride. our pet, our idol, will
be cast forth from the ranks of fellow
men into the outer world, where there
is weeping and wailing, and the ne
cessity for him to forage for his living.
S'death.

TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS

We desire to remind all old sub
ScriberS of the REPORTER and all
those who wish to become subscribers
that by looking after their SubScript-
ion during the month of December,
they can get the paper for the year
1906 for one dollar, if paid in advance.
This is well worth looking after, as
fifty cents saved is fifty cents earned.
10 this connection we diSire to say
that on January first we will enlarge
the REPORTER so that while we are
cutting the subscription price, when
paid in advance, we will enlarge the
paper and give the readers more
reading matter than before. This
certainly ought to furnish a good
for both old and new
subscribers. Many of our patrons are
availing themselves of this offer, and
we want all of them to get the benefit
of IT,. tt

PENSION DECISIONS
BY the Assistant Secretary OF
the Department OF the Interior.

Marriage TCXaS-Claimant was first
married in Wisconsin in 1874, her
husband deserted her soon there
after, and she married the soldier in
Texas in 1885, 1t is shown that her
first husband survives and that the
marriage has not been terminated in
divorce. 1t is, therefore, HELD that
the second marriage was invalid, and
that she is not the widow of the
soldier.
Service RecOrd-E vidence-Pri Ser
vice-In the absence of record in the
War Department of prior military
service OF the deceased soldier. the
allegation by his widow that he had
such prior service was immaterial, and
the rejection of her claim for pension
upon the ground of her inability to
furnish evidence showing in what
organization such alleged prior SER
vice was rendered was improper ana
erroneous.
Line of Duty-The soldier was
killed by being run over by an electric
ca while absent from his command by
permission. HELD, that his death did
not occur while lin line of duty
within the meaning of the pension
laws.
DiScharge-The deceased soldier was
never discharged from his military
service during the war of the re-
bellion, but was murdered while in
the service under his first and only
enlistment at time when absent
from his command on pass. HELD:
That his widow is not entitled to
pension under the provisions of Sec
ton 3, act of June q, 1890.
Misunderstanding ion-C Claimant and
soldier continued to live and CO.
habit together as husband and wife
ten years after the death of his first
wife and'up to the time of his death,
during which time, and for fifteen
years prior thereto, they were gener-
ally reputed and acknowledged to be
husband and wife. HELD: That
under the laws Of Missouri a contract
Of marriage between the parties sub
seQuent to the death of soldiers first
wife may be presumed, and hereby is
presumed, and appellant is the law
full widow of soldier.
