F A Hturisou tho Washington cor
respondent in a recent lottor explains
iho reason some persons liud fault with
tho pension department It seonis that
if an applicant is fraudulently iucliuod
or has forgotten tho record ho made in
tho army he becomos furious and un
mercifully nbuses thoso otllcors con
nected thorowith if they happen to
kuow inoro of his iutoutions or his
record than ho does Mr Harrison
gives the following as a sample caso
from Nobraska remarking that some of
tho outcry against tho pension depart
ment comes from a peculiar source
A Mlssourinn temporarily residing in
Pawnee county arrived hero ten days
ago He came to seo why his pension
claim had not been allowed Ho had
loft hoine with exactly enough money
to pay his faro to Washington Arriv
ing here he was escortod to tho pension
department and thero learned that his
claim ha I not been allowed because
ho had no discharge from tho army and
was on record as a deserter Ho ap
peared surprised to learn that this was
any bnr to tho allowance of a pension
and admitted that ho had found fault
with the ponsion department through
Euccessivo ndmiuistrations Ho had 10
portntion to get out or town It 1h
curtain that such misguided individuals
do much to Mir up local scntiinmil
against pension coiutulsHioncr it being
dilllcult for neighbor to judge of tho

THE SAMPLE FIEND

Coming suddenly upon a salesman In
a retail store who had n number of
yard long lengths of new piques liber
ally sprinkled with those little price
tags tho pins all stuck through the
several thicknesses and bent down
one understood all at once the full im
port of the demands of the sample
llend Marked off evenly like a check
erboard with 17 price tags lengthwise
and seven to the width which made
111 to the yard the salesman was go
ing over tho lot with a peneil setting
down the width and price on ench
At one store tho one who Is at the
head of each stock attends to the pro
paring of the samples of his particular
stuck Thus the pique samples would
le cut by one samples of swIss by an
other of organdie by another and so
on In the silk department one man
who Is kept for the purpose does it all
And It takes all his time
For people from a distance who do
their buying by mall this is of course a
very good method lut the part to
which all sane people take exception
Is the seusekhs sampling of thoso who
wnnder aimlessly about evidently
gathering samples as a thoughtless
child sometimes pulls twigs In passing
bushes The worst of It Is we have to
pay for this senseless womans foolish
ness It being often observable thatithe
biggest samplers are the smallest buy
ers One clerk says that he has actual
ly seen thrown upon the sidewalk the
samples given to a woman after show
ing her his whole stock her purchase
being ostensibly postponed because of
her fear that the goods will not match
something or other

A Memphis young lady who Is very
fond of her sisters little child n boy
of 2 or 3 years who Is visiting her now
was trying yesterday to get him to let
her fix him up to have his photo
graph taken She got her curling tongs
and was trying to coax him to let her
curl his hair Hut with true boyish
disgust at tho Idea of having his hnlr
treated like a girls ho refused to sub
mit to the process She Insisted how
ever and offered him every kind of
bribe but In every Instance he refused
to allow her to do what she wished
nud finally becoming tired of her ut
ter it to get him to submit he sat
down crossed his legs and looked up at
her M ry seriously and said
Auntie I tell you what Ill do I
wont take a dollnr to let you curl my
hair but Ill give you a dollar If you
just go away nnd let my hair alone

An army loses far more of Its strength
through Its wounded than through Its
killed In the first place thero are four
or five wounded to ono killed and In
tho second place the dead men give no
trouble while the wounded require an
Immense number of uoucombatauts to
attend to them A great ninny of tho
wounded return again to duty their
wounds being comparatively slight
but as a rule more than half of them
take no more part In the war London

One of the most Interesting depart
ments In the United States treasury
Is that devoted to the redenipllon of
mutilated currency To It are sent all
varieties of bills In every conceivable
stago of mutilation It Is seldom that
the experts cannot decipher tho burn
ed crisps or piece together the myriad
fragments The collection Is a curi
ous one changing every day with
kaleidoscopic rapidity
Tho hurtling of a nolo usually brings
out Us design In a sort of metallic re
lief upon Its surface and by means of
a glass and other Implements nnd nlso
a full nnd complete knowledge of Uie
Inlrlcnto designs no two denomina
tions being alike on every notu Issued
their face value Is learned with In
credible dexterity
Some arrive In fairly good condition
some shrunken nnd water soaked oth
ers scorched black and twisted out of
shape many are merely thltw tiny
black Hakes and In one case now un
der consideration the evidence consists
of n smnll handful of black powder
which the alllant swears was l5 acci
dentally blown Into the lire
Often the mischief has been done by
mice hatulfuls of the tiniest of pieces
attesting the evil ways of the rodent
Huhles are another source of trouble
maniacs victims of drunken frenzy
plowshares sawmills In fact the
strangest and most unheard of acci
dents are occurring all tho time Hut
In a great majority of cases the money
has boon burned for a common prac
tice among people who are their own
bankers seems to bo the keeping of
their funds In unused stoves A cold
day comes the lire Is lighted Dy some
unsuspecting person who didnt know
It was loaded and the owner sudden
ly linds that he had money to burn in
splto of himself
In ono Instance n man having 7000
in government bonds besides notes
and gold kept them In a tomato can
which he placed In the elbow of his
parlor stove While ho was plowing
Ids fields company arrived his wife
had a fire kindled nnd shortly he made
tho unpleasant discovery that his rich
es had taken wings Had ho scut the
money Just as It came from tho stove
wrapped In cotton It might have been
saved but In endeavoring to separate
It It became so churned and ground up
that the department was able to Identi
fy only about J000 for him
An old woman who had accumulated
nbout i00 was ono night at her devo
tions when the candle In some myste
rious manner wns overturned In the
midst of the money Now history does
not relate why It was there or whether
she was returning thnnks or paying a
bit of homage to Mammon but at any
rate It was destroyed and as she threw
the ashes away and at the Instigation
of her friends picked them out again
there was only enough left to return
about 10O to her
Hut much more forthnato were an
old couple In the west The man had
been a soldier and by the long accu
mulation of years they had saved a lit
tle sum when one day the wife in go
ing to look at it found that tho mice
had left only a pile of carefully sawed
fragments Almost distracted she took
It to the bank reporting that the last
time she hail counted It the sum had
been r mostly in tens nnd twenties
It was sent here the tiny bits sorted
and arranged ns only experts can ar
range them and the necessary three
fifths of every note wns found Hut
the best of all was that Instead of 273
It was discovered that the old peoples
savings amounted to 30 which
amount wan finally sent to them much
to their Joy
Of course the greatest precaution is
necessary and tho affidavits must
leave no doubt ns to tho utter nnd en
tire destruction of the missing parts of
the notes In one caso of this kind a
farmer sent from Kansas some green
backs amounting to 50 only half of
each note being Intact The rest ho
declared In a strong nflldavlt had been
destroyed and also stated In what man
ner but on consulting tho books It wns
found that one half the sum had al
A
ready been paid to another person who
had sent the other halves of the notes
from another part of the country Con
sequently but 23 was returned to him
Thereupon the cashier who had
transacted the business for the farmer
wrote such nn Indignant letter saying
the government had Impugned the hon
esty of the claimant nnd that he would
prove him In tlo right that tho nffalr
was put Into tho hnnds of tho secret
service tho proofs exhibited nnd the
imprudent farmer fined 1000 for fnlse
swearing New York Tribune
