M'INTYRE FOUND IN SERIOUS CONDITION
WAS LYING IN STREET UNCON- SCIOUS-RECENT TROUBLE IS BELIEVED TO HAVE UNSETTLED HIS MIND.

William c. Mcintyre, who figured in the recent shooting affair in which pr. J. l.. Hagler was wounded, was found in d semi-conscious condition last night near the corner of Fourth avenue and Twenty first street. The ambulance of the Green Undertaking company was summoned and Mcintyre was brought to police head quarters, where he was given medical at tention. He was immediately carried home.
 He had supposedly started to town from his home when he apparently lost his reason. When seen at police head quarters he was not in his right mind, often complaining of a pain in his head. It is believed that the trouble is the re- suit of nervous prostration brought on by the excitement of the recent shooting affray in which he figured.

BUSH EXPLAINS
 PENSION MATTER
MAINTAINS THAT VETERANS RE- cEIVED EVERY DOLLAR APPRO- PRIATED BY LEGISLATURE FOR THEMSELVES AND WIDOWS.

To the Editor of The Age-H Herald
 I wish it to be understood in the out set that I am not engaged in the politi- cal issues that are now disturbing the masses in any way, but cannot sit idly by and read the many letters that are being published in the papers about the widows and old Confederate soldiers not getting their pensions without entering my protest.
 This is an unjust and unreasonable as- sault upon the present administration; the auditor General Brandon, in his report shows that every dollar that was appro- priated for pensions was properly and fairly disbursed according to law.
 The general assembly of Alabama in passing the act which authorized the in- crease of the amount of the appropriation for the Confederate veterans and their widows was, in my opinion. exceedingly generous and liberal, and so far as I could learn the Confederate veterans gener- ally who understood the law seem satis- fled
 The trouble in the minds of many seems to be that just as much should be dis tributed on the last quarter of the year as was distributed on the first, second and third quarters; but the apparent misfor- tune was that when the last quarter came the total fund was so reduced by the dis bursements of the first, second and third quarters to the Confederate veterans and their widows that there was not as much in the pension fund to pay each of the pensioners as was paid them in the first, second and third quarters; therefore whatever balance was on hand in the pen sion fund was distributed, as the act provides, pro rata to each pensioner.
 The different camps throughout the state exerted great influence in procur- ing an increase of pensions and so did the camps in their state reunions at Mo- bile and Montgomery. Some of them adopted resolutions expressing their grat- itude for the great kindness shown to the Confederate veterans and their widows and especially to those old comrades at Mountain Creek home
 Whatever was appropriated was fairly and properly paid out. The pension roll has gradually increased, and some vet erans have reached the age of 80 years and under the law they are entitled to an increase of their pensions to the amount of s10O J. W. BUSH.
