Santiauo's Widow.

Mrs. Annie r. Schley, widow of Rear
Admiral Winfield Scott Schley, will re-
ceive pension of $3.50 month If the
house concurs in bill passed by the
senate. The committee on pensions
opposed the naming Of such a large
amount. but was finally Sverruled.
The bill passed was introduced by
Senator Rayner. who served as chief
counsel for Admiral SchIey before the
court of inquiry that passed on bis nc
ton at the battle of Santiago. He
made an eloquent plea for the dead
naval hero 1t developed during the
discussion that Mrs. Schley has an in
come of hut $50 year in addition
to the pension of $40 per month al
lowed under existing laws.
A brief but rousing speech was made

Admiral Schley was in command OF
the American naval forces at Santiago
and entitled to all the credit for the
destruction of the Spanish feet

HE CURED THE HAY FEVER
Cleveland Mans Attempt Rather
Strenuous Affair, But II
Worked.

An east end man With a bad case
OF hay fever heard that sojourn In
a beer cellar. or a packing house re-
frigerator would relieve the distress
ing malady. He had no entree to beer
cellars, and all the packing houses
were too far away.
So he went into the pantry and
after removing the eatables from the
upper portion Of the icebox, put his
head into close conjunction with So
pound lump OF ice. In this manner
he hoped 10 freeze out the annoying
germs.
II was a slow process and not alto
gether comfortable, but everything
including the germs-appeared to be
going all right-when the conyalescent
happened to push the box too close
to the WALL and the 40-pound cover
suddenly dropped on his defenseless
head like vicious piledriver.
For moment the dazzled victim be-
lieved that his throat was cut and his
skull smashed by the same blow. But
he managed presently to extricate
himself and below for help.
Two days later the only reminder
Of his cruel experience was a lump
on the back of his head as big as
green tomato.
And every vestige of hay fever had
left himi-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
