ERROR GIVES SCARE
TO NAVAL PAYMASTER
Slip In Making Up Estimates
Cuts $4,000 From Pay.

Washington.-In making up the navy
department estimates for the ensuing
fiscal year enough enlisted men were
overlooked to make an aggregate of
$4,000.
1t caused not little CONSERVATION in
the office of the paymaster general OF
the navy. A board of four officers was
appointed to go over the figures and
locate the error. and it took them four
days to do it.
One year somebody overlooked all of
the warrant officers assigned to duty in
the engine rooms of our naval vessels.
The amount involved on that occasion
was $224,000
The error managed to pass undiscov-
cred for time. 1t finally got to the en-
CINE room crews. however, and they
promptly announced that unless their
salaries were included in the estimates
instanter not an engine in the navy
would turn over. 1t did not take the
powers that be long to discover the
error and correct it.
The marvel to officials is that so few
errors occur in making up the esti-
mates, when the innumerable govern
mental activities are taken into consid-
Grafton. Usually when the book of es-
Inmates is finally completed in the
treasury department from the figures
submitted by the several departments

BURIED IN WAR, STILL ALIVE.
Veteran, Seventy five, Kicked Up Dirt
While Being Laid at Rest.

While Being Laid at Rest.
Centralia, Mo. : James NJ. Hulen,
who has just celebrated his seventy
flfth birthday, claims the distinction
of being the only man who, after he
was pronounced dead and had been
buried, lived to tell the story.
Hulen was shot through the right
eve with a a caliber bullet during the
civil war. He was pronounced dead,
was buried, and the clods were rafting
down into his grave when his foot
kicked up through the dirt.
The burial was stopped and Hulen
removed from the grave. The other
dead were buried, and presently the
gravediggers came back, expecting to
find Hulen really dead by this time.
But his heart was still beating, and he
was sent to hospital.
The experience occurred when Hulen
was in the First Missouri brigade,
Company G, under command of Colo
mel Coclrell. The brigade was at New
Hope, Ca, attempting to cut off Sher-
mans march to the sea.
