NEGRO DREW FIVE PENSIONS
One Of Them Was His, the Others
Were Not
From the Worlds Work

From the Worlds Work
For many years there lived in Phila-
delphia a negro veteran of the civil war
named Dee Wilton Laws, the janitor of
the Grand Army of the Republics head
quarters. His duties in this connection
occupied a part of his time; the rest of
1t was pretty we'll occupied In drawing
four pensions. One of them was his own.
But the others were those of other men
1.-TWO dead, one living. Being rather
keen on pensions Laws Furthermore had
his wife draw an annuity which was not
Rightly hers-making five pensions in the
Family.
Laws and his wife lived in the South
Gnd Of Philadelphia, where for several
years there resided with them an old
negro pensioner named Robinson and his
wife, Susan. Robinson died; his widow
Susan, began to draw the pension. Then
she died. The pension bureau never
heard of Susan Robinson's death, for
Mrs. Dee Wilton Laws could sign a
voucher just as well as Susan Robinson
herself So, for four years the govern

InfOrmaIity In School

From the washington Star.
To take away the old fear of the stiff
disciplined school rooms and make them
into nice little meeting place, where
children have a splendid time. and in
eidentauy learn more and better lessons
than children ever learned before, an
entirely new experiment will be tried
which will result In an enormous In
vestment In new furniture If the scheme
is shown to be practicable
The idea Is from the brains of Stephen
E. Kramer, director of intermediate In
struction, and John A. Chamberlain, SUI
pervisor of manual training, and is
brand new in school circles.
The scheme has to do with the little
stiff legged desks which the children
in the first and second grades have
studied at from the early times when
desks supplanted the old fashioned
FORMS"
The desks sit in rows, formal and
| formidable, and the black iron legs of
! the desks and the stiffness with which
these little pieces of furniture sit or
the floor all add to the strictness OF
discipline which in these later days Is
beginning to be looked upon as having
disadvantages as well as advantages.
Mr.. Kramer has devised little table
desk, only few pounds in weight
which any first grade child can lift up
and carry around the room. Mr.. Cham
herlafn drew the plans and made the
models. A little chair goes with each
small table desk, and both desks and
chair can be picked up and carried any
where in the school room.
When the teacher wants to tell them
a simple tale of how one and one makes
two, they will pick up their little chairs,
push aside the desks and sit around
the teachers chair In a very fascinating
little family group. The chairs and desks
have rubber tipped feet, so there will
be little noise.
In this way the teacher will get right
in among her children. When she Is
demonstrating at the blackboard the lit
tie boys and girls will bring their chairs
and sit close to her AS everyone knows,
the present method of having straight
and stiff lines of desks and chairs makes
1t imperative that some of the children
Will have to sit far off in the back row.
The idea will gain favor, it is believed
and will also take away a little of the
first fear OF the school room that small
children have.

Laws a snug little sum on account Of the
fact that an. old negro named Robinson
had served in the army,
Dee Wilton long lived happily in re-
ceipt of his own annuity and Of the pen
sions which the government thought it
was paying to william Lewis and James
o. Banks. both Of whom were dead, and
OF George Harrison, a feeble-minded vet
eran of the almshouse. Laws received
his various checks at different addresses,
the homes of friends of his. Johnny Ul-
man, Ninth and Locust streets, and at
the shop of Jewish clothing dealer IN
South street.
Eventually the pension commissioner
was informed. 1t was an easy matter,
once attention was directed at the ras-
cal, to convict him. His sentence was
three years in the federal prison at At
lanta. where he languishes today.

Wilburton, okla, May 14--In spite
Of the fact that all mining troubles
may be adiudicated in time for the
heaviest mining season, the situa-
ton is all but pleasant throughout this
section of the Southwest, and espec.
tally to those who have given the
topic of supply much reflection. The
greater cities of the state are now
we'll supplied with gas and therefore
do not occasion the stir for the con
tinued heavy mining in this section
cf the state. Add to this the in
creased demand Of the transportation
companies and one can foresee what
ibe result will be TO the ordinary con
sumer unless a rapid change be made
Oklahoma coal operators have
maintained they must have better
prices or suffer losses, while, on the
other hand, the increased cost of liv-
ing has made il necessary those who
work in the mines get better compen
sation AT that. the trouble is not
originally of this section starting in

Oklahoma coal has always been SOLD

TEN allowing railways to charge such
tariffs as they pleased for coal and
also owning controlling interests IN
more than one mine, Since statehood
there has been a determined effort tc
reduce the freight rates on coal and
innumerahle arguments have beer
made as to what is right in such ma
terial things,
At present The Oklahoma output o
coal is much smaller than Is requir
cd within the state and the threaten
ed difficulties a.e more serious thaI
tne average person would believe
without full investigation. More seri
cls, too, is the fact that many of the
business men of the coal regions fur
rsh credit to the miners None o.
this will be lost because OF the strike
II it comes to one of those labor wars
Of tenacity, bur the slow settlements
necessarily tighten the local money
