GOLDFIELD. July 3O.-Richard G..
Bliss of Cleveland, Ohio. on Sunday
found his brother, Frank Bliss, in the
ESmeralda hotel after a search of
more than eight years, during which
time he travelled all over the CONT
nent and visited not only the larger
cities, but all of the important min.
ing camps. He also had detectives
looking for his brother in all Of the
larger cities of the world. Richard
Bliss made this long search for his
brother in order that the estate left
by his father might be divided and so
that his brother might inherit his
share.
Years ago Frank Bliss had a quar-
rel with his sweetheart in Cleveland

MONEY FOR
RECLAMATION
Will be Cut Down for the
Coming Year Accofo-
ing to Garfield

Secretary OF the Interior Garfield
inspected the Carson-Truckee project
and was highly pleased with the pro-
gress made there. He completed his
tour of Nevada yesterday afternoon
and left Reno last night for Oakland.
While at Fallon he announced that
upon his return to the national capi-
tai he would recommend that next
year $500 0U0 should be spent on the
reclamation work in Nevada instead
of Si5 coo as Lefore. The reduc-
ton in the amount Of money eXpend-
ed was in keeping with general re-
treuC hment policy now being followed
by the government. This was the
most important announcement made
by the official.
While at Fallon the farmers OF that
section met re official and presented
their grievances-the destruction OF
their crops from the overflow CT the
irrigated lands. The farmers thought
the government should stand tbs ex
pense, the money being taken from
the fund set apart for the irrigation
work. Garfield, however, is planning
to arrange a scheme by which such
damages will be assumed and paid by
the water company, i. e., the ranchers
themselves and in this manner pro
tect the ranchers in the future.
At the present time there are about
325 ranchers, who have ava led them
selves to the right OF homestead ani
an effort will be made TO bring more
into the state.

PENSION POINTERS.
Inquiries Answered and Suggestions
Made.

H. I. W., Norfolk, Va.-Yes, it is pos
sible for a husband and wife to legit-
imately draw pensions at the same time.
For example, husband may be draw
ing in his own right while the wife will
be drawing $12 month as an army
nurse. There are several instances of
this kind.
III. K, Lykens, Pa.-The widow is
not necessarily entitled to the same rate
of pension granted her husband. The
widow of an enlisted man. that is, any
one under the rank of Second Lieutenant
is not entitled to more than $12 per
month unless there be children under
I6 years of age. The above rate
applies only to those pensioned under
the Act of July IA, 1862, or general law.
Widows pensioned under the Act of
June 27, 1890, are only entitled to SS
a month. If the soldier was pensioned
for wounds and results of diarrhea, and
death resulted from disease of liver, we
are of the opinion that the Pension Bu-
reau will accept the death cause as
a result of diarrhea. If so, you could
be pensioned under the general law at
soldier were married before March 10,
1886. If after that date IS is all that
you could get under either law.
George, Atlantic City. n. J.-Pension
money in the hands of the United States
Pension Agent or any officer of the Gov
the pensioner, is not liable to attach
ment by any legal process. If the pen
sion check has been cashed we doubt
the money still being protected by Sec
ton 4747, Revised Statutes.
Mrs. S. ~, Dunkirk, Md.-The PEN
sion Laws provide that pension shall be
paid in the following order: First to the
soldier, second to his widow, and third
to his children. The wife has no title
during the lifetime of the soldier, ex-
+cepting under Act of March 3, 1899, in
case of desertion. The children have
no title in their own right during the
lifetime of the widow. If the widow fails
to apply we know of no law by which
the children under 16 years of age
can be granted a pension in their own
right. or that would compel the mother
to make application for pension.
G. A. r., Paris, lll-Trusses are fur
nished to those ruptured during the
war of the rebellion or since in any
war Application for the same should
be made thru the Board of Examining
Surgeons for Pension, who are author
lied to make the required examination
and forward the same to the Surgeon
General of the United States Army
without charge to the applicant. Trus-
ses are not issued more than once in
two years and six months The above
includes Marine and United States Ma
