Pension Money for Widow

Mrs. Nancy A. McCarter, widow OF
the late A. j. McCarter, received an
envelope from Uncle Sam recently
containing check for $240, in tull
payment of debt owed by the gov
ernment to her husband for twenty
years, which had been neglected by
simple error of government en-
ploye.
After Mr.. McCarter's death a few
months ago the widow wrote for an
increase IN her pension, which she
felt positive was coming to her. She
was not aware that her husband had
made the same request some twenty
years ago until she received COM
munication from Senator Guggen-
helm last week informing her that
the request of her husband had been
allowed and his pension increased )
per month twenty years ago. Through
the error of clerk the increase had
never been registered and the check
yesterday was to cover the S12 pei
year for the past twenty years.

sumption of more food than is neces-
sary for these purposes is the prime
cause of stomach troubles, rheuma-
tism and disorders of the kidneys
If troubled with Indigestion, revise

CASE 29 YEARS
In THE COURTS
Final Adjudication is Further Delayed
Railroad Material and Labor Were
Basis Of Suit.

st. Johnsbury. April s.--The case of
James ID. Bell at al vs.. the Vermont d.
vision OF the Portland 4 Ogdenshnrg
railroad eompany. which was on the
docket for Che Aprii term Of 1gpreme
court, now sitting here, has been con-
tinued 10 the May term in Montpelier.
This suit has been on the docket for 20
years and IS one of the oldest On record
Tho case grew out Of claims against this
railroad before Il went into receiver
ship and was sold 70 the Boston &
Maine.
The claims are for labor and material
furnished and amount To about $50 600,
and there were originally about so
creditors who claimed to be preferred al
leging that the earnings Of the read
and the personal property were ire
than enough to pay all Its preferred
claims. More than half Of the creditors
have died and the suit has passed to
their heirs,
IN 1908 there was decision by the
Judge ]. w R0well. now chief justice,
which found for the orators. with man
date that the amount due them be de-
termined below This has now been
done BIZ the master, and ii Is to his re-.
port that the defendant excerpts and
goes to supreme court.
At the time Of the trial the orators
we're successful, notwithstanding the
absence Of books, in establishing tho
fact that much of the money went into
permanent improvements and enhanced
the value Of the bondholdsrs' interests,
when it should have been credited to
net earnings The court ruled on this
that IN computing net earnings only
such expenditures az are actually made
can be deducted from gross earnings"
Now the defendant CLAIMS that the court
Of equity is not the court in which the
matter should be settled. If the SUI
preme court sustain the masters report
and findings the road must pay about
$4,000, with 5000 costs,
