BLOODY CRASM BRIDGED.

BY Law the Late rebellion" Is Now
Called the "civil War;"
= The "civil war;" and not the war Of
the rebellion" will hereafter be the
legal and official designation Of the
conflict which followed the secession
of the southern states. This was de-
cided by the United States senate not
long ago in passing the service pension
bill. which provides pension for all
soldiers who served ninety days or
more in the Union army and have
reached the age Of sixty-twO.
The first bill declared that their serv-
ice must have been rendered during
the late war Of the rebellion" Senator
Carmack offered an amendment. which
was accepted. improving this phrase to
during the late civil war"
Senators Frye and Bacon. each rep
resenting an extreme in fractional feel
ing, arose. at the same time to urge
this change. thereby showing a dispo-
sition to bridge the chasm.
Senator Teller precipitated the de-
bate by insisting that the secession Of
the southern. states was rebellion
and that no man who fought in the
Confederate army need mind being
designated as rebel.
Senator Money said he served four
years in the Confederate army and did
not care a rap if he is called rebel.
George Washington was rebel for
eight years. he said. land l do not
mind if the term is applied to me-" He
thought the historical title given the
conflict should be 1.-The war between
the states"
Senator Bacon spoke at length in
favor of using the expression civil
war; taking especial exception to be-
ing referred to as rebel. He admit
ted having served nearly four years in
the Confederate army, from which he
emerged captain. but declared it was
in no sense a rebellion.
Senator Patterson suggested that the
proper expression would be 1.-The war
of secession" but this did not seem to
meet with much approval, and civil
war; won.
The bill as passed gives every civil
war Veteran aged sixty-two d pension
of SO per month. those seventy years

years or over $40 per month. Veterans

in these benefits by ain amendment

BOWLEGS AND DIVORCE IN CON.

never SO deceived in a man in my
life
1t seems to hurt Mrs. Roster that
she did not find out everything
about Mr.. Roster in a day. In her
bill for total separation she does
not say whether or not she gave him
a chance, during the time she was
counting him, to tell her anything
about himself, for her lawyers would
probably call this an unnecessary ad-
mission, but it hardly stands to rea-
son, at all events, that Roster was
given such chance by Dora Ben

sks4laied pster before the day
was over and then she began to
make discoveries, as do all women
who marry. in haste The first thing
|fhe discovered was that Roster had
mo money. When she reached lis
home on farm near the town she
found, she says, that there was not
a fork or spoon, or a towel to be
found anywhere on the place. >
This was discouraging, but it was not
the last nor the worst of her discev-
cries.
The thing that disenthfalled her
the thing that caused her to
awake fully from her all too brief
dream of bliss-was the discovery
that Roster was bowlegged, and
this would not have been SO bad in
itself, for a bowlegged man may have
redeeming qualities, if she had not at
the same time discovered that he
was not merely a bowlegged but a
thoroughly deceitful man, inasmuch
as he was in the habit of wearing six
pairs of trousers to conceal his in
trinity.
There would not be enough in this
to justify Mrs. Roster in bringing ac-
ton for divorce against Mr.. Roster.
Her lawyer uses the fact. however,
for the purpose of establishing her
important allegation that Roster was
gay deceiyer.
Alas that there should be so much
deception in this world, so little re-
gard for the feelings of others, so
much vanity, so much jealousy and
SO little happiness, where there
should be nothing but confidence,
frankneSs and contentment! Alas that
Honest John Roster should be thus
exposed to the world as bowlegged
man in six pairs of pants, -Chicago

an admirable way all that is best.
sweetest and noblest in American
womanhood. Long association with
a man whose qualities of heart and

his country's history strengthened
and matured her devotion to national
ideals, and made of her the fit repre-
sentative of the nations substantial
social virtues and it's Hottest political
sentiments.
Despite the shadows wh:ca fell
across Ida Saxton's path: the pass
ing of her children when they would
have meant more to her than all
in the world: the waning of her
own health, and the supremest of
her. sad trials when her gentle COM
panion fell at Buffalo hers was yet a
life of resplendent victories. Conf
dence in right ideals consoled her
in the hour of disappointment; the
patine:philosophy of the Masters
patient philosophy of the Masters

strengthened her against misfortunes
The shock of adversely did not

sweetness of her mood toward life

she died unembittered and at peace
with the world.
The heart of the nation will be
keenly touched by the passing of the
worthy and notable woman,not mere

William Mckinley, soldier, states

of her life is replete with the sweet
