To SimpIifY Pension Business.

In accordance with recent ruling
of the Pension Office, the pensioners
in this town and vicinity have re-
ceived notice to the effect that they
will no longer be compelled to go to
q notary public to get their vouchers
filled out before they can draw their
quarterly pay from the government.
The checks due each pensioner will
be sent out every quarter from the
Pension Office direct to the pensioner
without the filling out of the usual
voucher, the only thing required of
the pensioner being, when he re-
ceives his check, he must exhibit his
pension certificate to two persons
who must attach their names to the
check as witnesses, and at the same
time certifying to the exhibition of
the pension certificate at the time of
attesting the signature of the pen
sioner. This ruling will affect the
notaries public throughout the coun-
try, but it will be a great convenience
to those drawing pensions and also be
a great saving of labor in the Pen
sion Office.

GOES ON RETIRED LIST.
Rear Admiral Newton E. Mason
Reaches the Age Limit.

Announcement was made at the
NavysDepartment Saturday that Rear
Admiral Newton E. Mason, one of
the ordnance experts of the Navy,
will be transferred to the retired
list October 4, on account of age.
His retirement will not create
vacancy to be filled by promotion.
He was an extra number, having
been advanced for conspicuous service
in action during the Spanish war.
At that time he was executive off
Ger of the cruiser Brooklyn, flagship
of the late Rear Admiral w. S.
Schley.
A native of Pennsylvania, he was
graduated from the Naval Academy
in 1869, and since then has served
in all parts of the world. He was
stationed at the Washington navy
ard, and then in the Bureau of Ord
nance at the Navy Department, from
1884 until 1889.
He was in charge of the proving
grounds at Indian Head for three
years, from 1898. and was chief of
the Bureau of Ordnance from 1904
until about year ago, when he was
compelled to relinquish that office on
account of i'll health. Subsequently he
was assigned to duty in Washington
as a member of the general board and
is still so employed.
During is forty-three years of SER
vice in the Navy he spent nearly
nineteen years at sea, relinquishing
command of the cruiser Cincinnati in
1902.
