Washington, D. c., July 16.-Win
the federal government ever be called
upon to pay the bonuses voted BY the
various states to veterans OF the world
war? This question is suggested by
the fact that the congress once took
action Of substantially that character
in connection with another war, and
because so many states have decided
to reward their soldiers OF lS17-l91S.
Following the war Of the Revolu-
ton the first pensions which may be
regarded as a form Of bonus, were
paid by the various states. but in 1888
the congress passed an act whereby
the general government assumed the
payment of such pensions az had been
granted by the states and this provi-
sion was continued by subsequent leg
|islation. There has been no sugges-
| ton as yet that the burdens and obi
| cations Of the etates incident to the
recent var be similarly taken over,
congressman may seek to endear him
self to the people back home by pro-
posing to dip into the federal treas
ury for the funds that otherwise must
come from the state strong-boxes.
To date IL Of the states have paid
or are paying bonuses. while in three
others all the necessary steps have

all. the bonus appropriations actually
made or proposed in these % states

three hundred million dollars-$331,-

detrimental figures availab BILE in Wash

Mexican and Indian wars 5s.652,450
acres of the public domain were dis

Then came the Civil war and. under
the act of 1862 land script worth
$1.25 per acre was distributed for g.

Bounty Jumping q Business.
All volunteers in the Northern army
during the Civil war received cash
bounties. cities and states competing
with each other and with the federal
government, while many individuals
hired substitutes to take their places
at the front. BY 1865. owing to the
magnitude Of the war and the diff
Guilty Of getting recruits, the %gratuities
which a volunteers could gather in
am to as much as 81, 500 and
"bounty-jumping" had become a bust
ness. A man would enlist in one
place under one name, hurry to the
front, collect his bounty. desert and
then go to another locality and re-
peat the performance under another
name. Aside from what the govern
ment paid out it Is estimated that To-
cal and state bounties in this war
amounted 10 more than $500, 900, 900.
When we come to the matter of
pensions which are deferred bounties
or bonuses 1t is found hat prior to
the world wal the government had
disbursed IA grand total of $5,220,-
s35.3ss, in addition TO establishing
and maintaining soldiers homes. The
unber Of soldiers and sailors in the
several a covered by this expendi-
turc, was: Revolutionary war, 1884,

d 1918: Indian wars. s3,ss3;
Civil war. %2,2ls.3s3: Spanish war,
ISL; total, 3,3o4,sea. The average
pension paid to each enlistment has
been 1919.
Official records show that 5.ols.s2a
\ and women participated in the
world q OF these 4.350,4e7 were

navy and S0,063 were in the Marine
corps. If the pensions and bonuses
which will eventually go to this great
fshfing force average substantially
Inc same as the pension payments for
other wars 1t is apparent that the to-
tai bill will aggregate something like
fifty billions of dollars.
THAI pensions are conducive ia

a fact none the less hat pensioners

luttonary war did not die until 1869.
and on June 80, 1910, the pension lists
still contained the name Of one daugh-
ter Of a Revolutionary soldier. the
daughters having been pensioned by
special acts Of the congress. At the
close of the fiscal year 19l5-19Is
there were lis widows of veterans of

To the woman pinned to the wall
by shock the moments Immediately
following that murderous fusillade
were a raying welter of horrors.
Between two heartbeats she saw
Lynn, with a face as blank as paper,
spinning, topping, beating the air
with aimless arms, pitching TO the
floor like something blasted, resting
there in a sickening, inert crumple !;
and was keenly aware of the acrid
reek of smokeless powder cutting,
as acid cuts oil, the sensuous scent
of the roses that dressed the room
in her honor; and all the while was
conscious of the PISTOL nos1ng In De

thing of infinite malice, and the
pallid oval of the face behind ii,
that seemed to float in the dark as
might the mask of some mad ghost.
AS the din of those three shots
lost weight and volume, a thin
shouting became audible from some
point outside the house, and Nelly
Marquis, with the sweep OF fury,
her eyes burning like black opals,
broke through the hangings at the
window, and pulled up with pistol
leveled point blank at Lucinda's
breast.
A single thought persisted: An
