THE MISSOURI SOLDIERS, HOME

We are indebted to Past Commander
William f. Henry for a copy of the Sew
enth Biennial Report of the officers of
the Federal Soldiers Home at St
James, Mo. Comrade Louis Beneke,
President of the Board of Trustees,
makes an excellent report of the con-
ditions at the Home, in which he says
there are 26S inmates. $50 of which
are men and 8S wives and widows of
veterans. The total capacity of the
dormitories and hospital is 1853 and
there are a number of approved appli-
cations for admission pending. Sew
eral parties are lodged in quarters out
side the Home. An appropriation of
$40, 900 is asked for an additional build
ing and $1,000 for it's furniture. heating
and plumbing. There are $4,000 want
Cd for providing water supply.
Under the decision of the Attorney
General of Missouri. ex-members of the
enrolled Missouri militia are not eligible
to the Home. President Beneke urges
that the enrolled Missouri militia men
performed valuable service and were
exposed to all the hardships of war.
The Federal Government grants no PEN
sions to the members, and there are
now a number of them infirm, INDECENT
and subjects of charity. He recon-
mends that an amendment shall be
made to the law allowing them admis-
sion to the Home. There are not many
survivors, and the few who are left are
| over 20 years old.
The report of Superintendent W. +.
Henry makes many valuable recon-
mendatIons. While the members have
been al all times well housed, have had
clean and comfortable beds and cloth
| ing, and have been literally supplied
with excellent food, yet the average
cost of maintenance has been below the
average of other States. He recon-
| mends a liberal appropriation for i'm
provements and repairs to put the
Homo in the highest condition. The
| farm has been quite successful, and
supplied the Home with produce to the
value of $700.30. In addition, it sup
piled $500 worth of milk during the
two years. There have been S3,245.26
worth of produce sold. All this was
| done on less than SO acres of ground.

DEATH OF COMMANDER FERGU-
son.

Comrade William W. Ferguson Com
mander, Department of Colorado and
Wyoming, died at his home in Denver
March A. after few days Illness Com
mander Ferguson enlisted in the 4th
n. Y. H. A. at its formation and served
until January, 1865. He took part in
the battles of the Wilderness, Spotsyl-
vania and Cold Harbor He was wound
ed at Appomattox and was in the hos
pital for several months. He went to
Colorado in 1869, was one of the
pioneers of Greeley, and for several
years was engaged in the freighting
business. In 1902 he became Assistant
Acknowledgement of Colorado, and was
| also interested in mines He was one
of the first to locate at Cripple Creek.
For several years he had been Gus
| todian of war relics at the Denver State
| House. Comrade Ferguson was an en-
| thusiastic Grand Army man and present
at every large gathering of his COM
rades. He belonged to Lincoln Post,
and was elected Commander at the last
meeting of the Colorado and Wyoming
| Encampment. His death is a serious
1 loss to the Grand Army, and a still
| deeper one to the comrades of Colo
| RADIO and Wyoming. He was one of the
first to secure the Endorsement by his
| Legislature of the Sulloway bill.

Lynn Haven, March 10.
The full food of Spring which is
identifying the whole region around
St. Andrews Bay is matched only by
the high tide of activity which is APP
parent on every hand on the townsite
of Lynn Haven.
The President of the st. Andrews Bay
Development Company has been here
for the past 10 days, and as usual his
visit has been followed by a marked
stimulation of the energies of all work
ing on the manifold operations of pre-
pairing the townsite and by the letting
of new contracts for the many impor-
tant Improvements that have been
planned by the company.
-The'most important contract that the
company has let is for the railroad con-

A large crew of tie-cutters have been

been started. This road will run from

with the Atlanta & st. Andrews Bay

The big dock, which Will be the pres
ent northern terminus of the new road
runs out to deep water, where large
T. 40 by 200 feet, running along a
depth OF over Is feet of water at low
tide, affords opportunity for berthing
the largest vessels that enter the Bay
and of loading and discharging the larg-
est volumes of freight. AS no other
dock on the Bay has Z depth of water
of over eight feet at low tide, the value
and Importance of this improvement at
Lynn Haven are obvious. With the

bay with the tIuiI OF Mexico, on WHICH
the Government has now been working
for about three months, naval stores,
which are now carried out on light

sells at other ports, can be delivered
by rail at Lynn Haven and loaded di-
rectly into vessels for shipment to any
port on the globe, without the expense
or delay of breaking bulk or reship-
ment.
This commercial feature irnpresses
everybody who visits Lynn Haven, and
the future growth of the town bulks
larger than ever in the minds of those
who have invested in the town and
those who haze come to investigate and
purchase.
Building has actively begun, and the
local lumber yard near the shore end
of the dock, which few weeks ago felt
that supply of $4,000 to $4,000 feet
of lumber was sufficient. now plans to
carry regular stock of all kinds of
rough and dressed lumber Of at least

been ordered, and building supplies Of

SENATOR McCUMBER's SPEECH.

- Much the best speech against Cana
dian reciprocity, and one which attract
ed the most attention, was made by
Senator McCumber, of North Dakota.
It showed thoro study and exhaustive
knowledge of all the factors which en-
ter into the question, and it presented
these in the most convincing way. What
attracted the attention of the people all
over the country was the Senator's COM
parison of what went to the farmer
with what the others got for their ser
vices. He presented this clearly and in
a novel way in a statement of his ex-
penses on trip to New York, saying:
without spying, Mr.. President, will
ask permission to follow this Senator

he returns to it after days sojourn at

and is shown by the bellboy to the ele-
vator. LAS he nears the tenth story he
responds to the expectant look of the

THE ENDORSEMENT OF NASSA.
CHUSETTS.

commandments Gilman, De-
partment Commander Fiske, Past Senior
Vice Commander-in- Chief OIin and
other comrades of Massachusetts, had a
hard time to get the Legislature to in
dorSe the Sulloway bill. The influence
of both the Senators from Massachu-
sets was against this. and there were
embarrassing rules to be gotten around.
The motion was first offered in the SEN
and defeated by a decisive vote of %
to 10. The comrades named were not
discouraged, however. but persevered,
and under the able management of
Comrade Oln the resolution was at last
gotten thru. The Boston Herald's re-
port tells something of this:
Resolutions indorsing the Sulloway
were turned down by the Senate on
Friday, and similar resolutions were
reported on adversely by the House
Committee on Rules.
THAT report was first on the calen-
dar yesterday, but before it was
reached Mr.. Lomasney offered his mo-
ton, and it went thru with only a
few noes After the session some of
the members said it took them by
surprise. In the Senate, however, there
was no surprise. for the resolution was
printed in the calendar.
Debate on the resolutions indorsng
the SuIloway bill had just begun when
the hour of adjournment was reached.
The question is on admitting the resO-
lutions under suspension of the rules
which requires a two-thirds vote, and
as the COMMITTEES on Rules has recon-
mended that the rule be not suspended
there is little hope that the resolutions
will go thru.
Representative Keefe, of Fall River
criticised the Committee on Rules for
it's adverse report. He said II States
had already Endorsed the Sulloway bill
and Massachusetts should take its place
among the number"

Writing to the Chicago Daily News
in reply TO some comments in its edi-
toriaIs on pensioners, Comrade w. f.
drummer, 45th Ill. Oak Park, Ill, says
with reference to one experience that
he mad during the war:
Forty-nine years ago this month, at
Fort Donelson, / stood picket and
fought and with my comrades achieved
the first substantial victory of the civil
war. when 5000 prisoners were sur
rendered to Gen. Grant Speaking of
the weather at that time, let me quote
Gen. Lew Wallace, who says of the
night OF Feb. 10, 1862: The wind
whisked suddenly around TO the north,
and struck both armies with storm
of mixed rain, snow and sleet. All
night the tempest blew mercilessly up
on the unsheltered, fireless soldier.
making sleep impossible. The
night of Feb. IA fell cold and dark, and
under the pitiless sky. the armies re-
manned in position SO near to each other
that neither dared to light fires. Thou
sands on both sides lay down in the
bitches and behind logs and whatever
else would in the least shelter them
from the cutting wind and tried TO
sleep. Very few closed their eyes. Even
the horses betrayed the suffering they
were enduring"

The .ssBfoston. papers are suggesting

The Boston papers are suggesting a
semi-e6entennial in their city of the de-
parture of. the first troops for the war.
The Boston Globe says editorially:
THE proposal to have a grand re-
union of the veterans of the civil war
on April 10 is of interest to all. 1t
would be a good plan to have the Com
monwealth and the city of Boston join
in becoming generous hosts of the vet
Grams on that day
Under this joint plan every veteran
in Massachusetts should be made a
guest of honor, from the time he leaves
home untfF he returns. The attentions
that could be bestowed on these men
who did so much to preserve this Union
would be of SO varied a character as to
emphasize the esteem in which they
are held by the entire population of the
State.
ut would be unique affair and a
delight to the general public as well as
the veterans"
