Query--My mother has not lived
with my father for number of years,
owing TO the fact of his desertion. We
have heard incidentally that he has
procured n divorce from her. He had
no grounds for a divorce as he de
serted my mother without cause. He
Is now living in another state and
drawing a pension of $55 per month
My mother wants to apply for one-half
of his pension. She is in poor circum-
stances and in feeble health. What
should she do about the matter?-
Mrs. Margaret L. Med.
AnsWer-If the divorce was granted
your father, the soldier pensioner.
your mother is not now his legal wife
and therefore cannot get one-half of
his pension under the provisions of
the act of March g. 1899. If it can be
shown that the divorce was illegally
obtained and is set aside by the court,
your mothers rights as the wife of
the soldier would be restored and she
could then apply for one-half of his
pension under the act of March 3,
1890, and obtain the same, If she could
show to the satisfaction of the com
missioner of pensions that she was
the legal wife of said pensioner a
woman of good moral character and in
necessitous circumstances.

gress in her behalf for a pension of $50
per month, but she married again. an
ex-confederate officer who has since
died. Her first husband had fine
military record, but never applied for
a pension, although deserving one. Is
the widow pensionable under existing
laws? If so, how can she secure pen
sion on account of the service of said
first husband?-J. r. C.
Answer-The widow referred to
would be entitled to pension under the
general law on account of the service
of her first husband, the union officer
from the date OF his death to the date
of her remarriage to the ex.confed
crate officer, provided she can show
that he died from disability due to ser,

and was discharged out west and was

reau for the loss of right foot, as he
cannot show that 1t was due to serv-
ice and line of duty; the loss of said

RARE TREAT PROMISED AT
BRINKMAN NEXT WEEK
Real Chinese Opium Pipe and LAY.
Out" on Exhibition at the
Family Theater.

The Wing Leo & Athon Company,
the big Chinese act, which appears
at the Brinkman Family Theatre all
next week, will place on display in
the lobby, an entire opium smokers
outfit, including the pipe", lamp,
yon hook, yon shee'' and every
thing connected with an opium den.
The opium pipe was secured in the
celebrated raid on the opiums dens
in Chicago some three months ago.
Although Ying Lee is a full
blooded Chinese, be has never hit
the pipe". 1t is used in their act,
The Idols Eye'', together with a
complete set of real Chinese scenery,
idols, costumes, etc., brought over
with them from China.
The Chinese are noted the world
over for their fine works of art, and
scenery used in this act is said to be
beautiful in the extreme.
Bobby Athon. the we'll known
actor, plays Stem" the hop" friend,
in the act and has received some
very fattering press notices praising
his clever rendition of this difficult
character.
Ying Lee is China's representative
artist, and has created no end of
comment during his short stay in
American, with his interesting
characteristic paintings.
The act is said to be entirely
different from anything ever before
attempted on the vaudeville stage,
and if Aattering press notices are
any criterion, a real treat is in store
for all who attend the Brinkman
Family Theater next week.

HARMLESS BIRDS SHOULD
NOT Be WANTONLY SLAIN
Practice of Small Boys, in Killing Small
Birds, Is Violation of the Game
Laws.

There has been an inclination in
bygone years among a few boys
who live in Bemidji, to wantonly
destroy harmless birds, just for the
pleasure of the killing, by the use
of either small caliber rifles or
sling-shots, and in many instances
these youngsters have endangered
life and limb of persons passing
through the woods that surround
the lake north of the city limits.
While there is danger to every
one through the use of firearms
by the boys, it is also a despica5le
act to destroy the harmless birds
that are menace to nothing and
disturb no one, if anything being
an added charm to this wooded
country. .
There is a section of the stat
game and fish laws which provides
a penalty for the punishment OF
anyone convicted of killing harm
less birds. and which is as fol.
lows:

REASONS FOR VETO OF
TONNAGE TAX BILL
Message Of Governor Johnson
to Minnesota Legislature.

The following are the detailed
reasons given by Governor Johnson,
in his message of yesterday wherein
he vetoed the Bjorge tonnage tax
measure:
First notwithstanding the able
and sincere labor bestowed upon it
by its author, Mr.. Bjorge, the bill re-
mains, both in principle and admins
trative features, a more or less un.
certain and i'll digested experiment,
not fully understood even by it's
friends and intensely feared by the
sections of the state to which it spe.
cially applies, while in application it
threatens to violate the fundamental
principle of taxation, that of equality,
at the same time that it fails to meet
the constitutional requirement of uni
formity in taxing the same class of
subjects.
"Second-It is certain that the mo-
raj, industrial and practical effect of
the bill, if made a law, at this time,
will be to strike severe blow at the
development and prosperity of all the
great mineral bearing counties OF
Northeastern and North Central Min
nesota, affecting alike the agricultural,
manufacturing, commercial, financial
and educational growth and success,
as we'll as the settlement of all our
northern lands, both public and pri-
vate, and the investment of both home
and foreign capital therein.
"Third-The passage of the pro-
posed tonnage tax measure at this
time, when both it's provisions and
the principle upon which it is based
are so little understood and, indeed,
so generally misunderstood, has
plunged the whole subject of taxation
under the new state constitutional
amendment into a sea of political and
sectional feeling and prejudice, which
not only makes a just, efficient and
scientific measure impossible of enact
ment at this time, but threatens Sec
tional hatreds which may disrupt and
endanger the future best DEVELOPMENT
of our great commonwealth, besides
making the subject of just state taxa
tion the mere football of partisan and
sectional politics. .~
"Fourth-Minnesota is achieving
marked success in the assessment and
taxation Of iron ore lands under the
present ad valorem system, so that
there is no urgent and vital public
need of a measure of this kind at this
time and nothing to prevent the state
from taking ample time under the
provisions of the new constitutional
amendment and with the aid of the
state tax commission to work out a
system of taxation on a thoroughly
scientific, dispassionate and equitable
basis, devoid of political and sectional
feeling and one that will commend
itself to the people of Minnesota at
large, regardless of section or party,
industry or class, for it's justice and
equality of principle, as well as for it's
efficient, carefully wrought and thor
oughly practicable administrative fea-
tures."
