PUZZLE FOR PENSION BUREAU
woman Twice n widow Presents Case
that II Hard for Examiners
to Solve.

Puzzling matters are always developing
In the adjudication of pension cases turned
over to the special pension examiners for
investigation. One Of the most unique Of
these cases has Just come to the front
through the Investigation Of Special Elk
aminer Goodwin.
The case is one involving a wldowhood
of a two-times widow. A Mrs. Sophie Pier
son of Kansas had filed a claim for a
pension on the death of her husband, an
old soldier. who had been drawing a pen
sion. The case seemd perfectly clear and
the pension was about to be allowed when
it was discovered that during the life Of
Pierson mis- wife had posed on the records
of the Kansas county a. a widow and
being possessed OF considerable property
had, during the life of her husband. dis
posed of some of her property. For twelve
years prior TO Persons death the couple
had not lived together. and in all of her
transfers of property she signed her name
as Mrs. s. Pierson, widow.
II since developed hat much valuable
property was involved in these transact
tions, and the question now is whether the
transfers made by her during her hus-
bands life, though they had not been di-
vorced, are legal.
The question the pension bureau has to
contend with is whether Mrs. Pierson, for
twelve years the self-confessed widow Of
her living husband, who during these
twelve years was a pensioner, is entitled to
a pension as the actual widow of the man
whom she had for a dozen years repudia-
ted. 1t is up to the pension bureau to an
sWer.

A story supposed to he "on" the Credit
Mems association is being circulated by
some of those who were present AT the
Church club banquet to Bishop Hart Fri
day night. The credit men had a dinner
the same night. A clerk in one of the local

credit men. but by mistake he wandered
into the Commercial club rooms where the
churchmen were about to partake. Seeing
Henry w. Yates. presidenJ or the Nebraska

CHOLERA REPORTS OVERDRAWN
Not as Grave situation in the Philip
pines as Proclaimed, Says
Colonel Davis.

That the cholera conditions in the Phil
ippincs have been overstated is shown by
recent letters from Manila received by
army Officers at army headquarters in
Omaha.
"A letter from there just received here
states that the cholera seems to be con-
fined almost wholly to the natives said
Lieutenant Colonel w. b. Davis, chief sur
gcon Of the department. This letter stated
that but one American, a fireman, had been
afflicted with cholera and from this 1
would infer that the army had been pc
c~uliarly free from the epidemic. The day
has passed when any serious fear should
be had Of the dangers of rapid spread Of
the cholera, 1t can be prevented by the
simplest precautions. Water should he
boiled before using and then used only
while it is tepid, before the germs had
time to propagate again. The same rule
should be adopted in cooking food, which
should also be eaten while It is hot and
before the flies can gather about It and
leave their trails of germs across II. In
the tropics flies are the great propagators
Of cholera germs. The army medical de-
partment has taken every precaution
against the spread of the epidemic by these
and other rigid sanitary measures, and
hence the army has become peculiarly i'm.
munc from plaques Of the character that
sweep off so many Of the natives through
their utter lack Of the most ordinary sani-
tary precautions. The other officers OF
the army are being constantly schnolcd in
sanitary and hygienic principles and every
preCaution is taken to maintain the health
Of their commands. and as a consequence
no army in tho world stands on a more
healthy and superior physical basis today
than the army of the United States"
