AN HONEST WIDOW.
Wanted to Return Pension When Her
Income Increased.

iHcome increased.
Mrs. Arthur Gibson of Fremont
Neb., three years ago applied for a
WIDOWS pension and had trouble get.
ting It.
Representative Mccarthy of her dis.
trict interested himself, and after much
effort Mrs. Gibson made her case good
and was put on the rolls for So a
month. She got at the same time a
good slice OF back pension. A widow
must show that she has not over S250
annual income In order to get pen
sion.
The other day Mr.. Mccarthy received
from her letter returning the vouch
ers for her quarterly pension payment
and adding:
Last week l received some funds
from source entirely unexpected. |.
have been able with this and the mon
ey from my back pension to pay Off all
debts and make small Investment.
MY yearly income will exceed $3.50.
For this reason l feel that l must re.
turn the voucher, with the request that
you state the case to the commissioner. |
l shall feel 1t necessary to continue
Keeping boarders, but cannot honestly
continue to send vouchers for pension
money now that my income will ex-
eeed the government limit"
Mr. Mccarthy went over to see the
commissioner. They figured out that.
inasmuch as Mrs. Gibson's statement
about her income was truthful at the
time the pension was allowed 1t is now
TOO late to go back of that fact. So
she Will keep right on getting her pen
sion, with the assurance that the-e
Is no impropriety In it.
The case Is said to be the first Of its

OLD FOES AT GETTYSBURG.
Survivors of Pickott's Charge Meet
Philadelphia Veterans.

After forty three years survivors OF
General George e. Pickett's division
and the Philadelphia brigade met last
September on the spot where the world
famous charge was made on the third
day of the decisive battle of the civil
war. The brigade was composed OF
four regiments of the Pennsylvania
volunteers, who assisted In fighting OH
the charge, and one feature of the day
was the return by veteran Union men
to their former enemies of the sword
of Brigadier General Lewis Addison
Armistead, which fell from his hands
when he was killed just as he reached
the cannon of Cushing
Although the survivors of the famous
charge on both sides were aged and
bent, they went over the ground of the
battle with the enthusiasm of youth,
and the return of the sword started
many a train of "reminiscences of the
man who had waved 1t.

Expulsi0n League Tells of Fate of
 Many Women Immigrants.
 Washington, July 11.-A vigorous protest has been received by the Gov ernment from the Japanese Korean Ex- pulsion League. the headquarters of which are in Seattle. Wash. against what is said to be an organized trafiic in Japanese women. who are being brought to this country in large num- bers for immoral purposes.
 The protest declares that wholesale misrepresentation. perjury and fraud are perpetrated on the part of the im- migrants and perjury and collision on the part of the Japanese residents in this country. It is stated that the traffic Is regularly organized and tina, women are brought on to this country and sold into a system of slavery.
 In connection with the trafYic there Is said to exist a gang of blackmailers composed of Japanese, who live on the money collected from the importers of the Japanese slave girls. It is as- serted by the officers of the league that hundreds of these women are scattered among the cities of the Northwest and in the logging and mining camps and they are drifting gradually to cities throughout the country. The protest will be, brought to the attention of the immigration authorities.

Plan 10 Frastrated By Treasurer of
 the Army.
 Boston, July 11.-What Government ofhcials think was a plan to extort $30.000 from the Salvation Army was made public today when Solomon Robitcheck. dealer in second hand clothing of Lowell. and Bennett Silver. blatt. a Lowell money lender, were brought before United States Commis- sioner Hanes and held in bonds of $1.0O0 each on the charge of using the mails to defraud.
 According to the ofhcials connected with the ofice of the United States District Attorney. Robitcheck either wrote or secured possession of a poem casting grave reflections on the ,no- tives Snd practices of the members of the Salvation Army. It is alleged that copy of the verses was sent to Gen. William Booth. commander of the Army, and was addressed to Salvation Army headquarters in New York. Gen. eral Booth being in London, the letter was opened by Ransom Ca1hill, Treas- urer of the Army. Enclosed with the verses was a letter in which, 1t is al- legged. the threat was made to publish the verses and sell them at cents a copy unless the Army paid 3aO,000 to the sender. Robitcheck. Silverblatt, ac- cordfng to the contention of the Gov. ernment, acted as Robitcheck's attor- ney. delegated to carry out the nego- tiations.
