Captain Fred Howard of truck COM
pany No. 2, Minneapolis fire depart
ment, and Edward Johnson, ladder
man, we're on Friday called before
Chief Ringer, who commended them
for their bravery in entering a burn
ing house at 600 Fourth avenue S and
rescuing, to the Impairment of their
own lives, two men who had been
overcome with smoke. The chief
told them that their heroism had in
creased their chances of promotion
and that they would be duly rewarded.
Captain Howard is native of Prince
ton, and during the time he has been
engaged in fighting fires in Mime
apolis has performed many acts OF
bravery. The Uni o n is pleased to
learn that he is in lire for further
promotion.
Chief Ringer has adopted a new
basis for determining who is entitled
to promotion. It is bravery. Length
of service was formerly taken into
consideration more so than deeds of
heroism.

Sherwood Pension Bill Passes House,
The Sherwood service pension bill,
which would add upward of $40, 900, 900
to the governments annual expeudi-
lures by granting increased pensions
to civil and Mexican war veterans on
the basis of length of service, was
passed by the house on Tuesday night
despite the determined opposition of
many democratic leaders. Secretary
of the Interior Fisher estimated that
the bill would add s75,OOO,O00 to the
pension roll if the 100000 veterans
eligible take advantage of the in
crease. The bill now goes to the
senate.
The Sherwood bill would establish
the following basis of pensions: For

Sl5 a month; from six to nine months,
500 a month; from nine months to one
year, 1925 a month; more than one
year, $50 month.

Don't Forget Your Horse at Christmas.

Don't Forget Your Horse at Christmas
For holiday presents for horses go
to William Neely's harness shop.
He has everything to please you:
Single and double harness, bells,
robes and whips. But the faithful
horse has, of course, no use for a
whip-he detests it-and consequently
does not expect his friend, Santa
Claus, to bring him one. Buy your
horse something that he can CON-
fortably work in and something to
keep him warm, and he will show his
gratitude when you tell him it is a
present you bought from William
Neely's harness shop for his especial
benefit. Nicely keeps the best of
everything for horses and the prices
are right. Call and examine the big
stock before buying elsewhere.
