PATRIOTISM AND Comi iliiloatr William L,. Liockren MaM S«v«ral
Painted Suggestions.
WASHINGTON, Oot. 80.—Commissioner William L. Lochren of the pension office in his annual report makes several pointed suggestions. Under the head "Patriotism and Pensions," he says: "Those men who enlisted e:irly and fought the battles of the war were not moved by mercenary considerations, and unless actually ^disabled did not show the haste in applyfeg for pensions manifested by those who enlisted near the close of the war for large bounties and did li:tle actual service, anil who are now the noisiest in clamoring for more pensions. As compared with this latter class, the real soldiers of the war have been modest in preferring claims for pensions
The c.,.!1 uissioner says that many disreputable and incompetent men are engaged as pension attorneys, and suggests that none but reputable members of the bar be allowed to practice in ponsion cases. Dishonest attorneys have given much trouble by systematic criminal r."d fraudulent practiccs. Pension payments, the commissioner says, brings large amounts of money in communities, and tne fears that conviction of these attorneys would lessen the influx of money has manifested itself in popular rancor against the special examiners, whose investigations secured the conviction of criminals. The special examination division will not reqaire as much money as in the past, for the reason that vigorous prosecution of frauds and crimes has discouraged and measurably stopped frauds.
The rieatli of many witnesses and the age of -Iaimants lias made it quite difficult in many cases lately to obtain proof sufficient for the granting of pensions.
The commissioner recommends that some provision be made for tho maintenance of deserving clerks in his bureau who have been long in the service and have become practically disabled.
The report shows that the number of pensioners June 30, 1894, was 969,544} new pensioners added during the year, 39,185 dropped pensioners restored, 4,205 deaths during the year, 29,817 dropped for other causes, 14,575 making a not increase of pensioners during the year of 860.
Pension claims allowed during the year, 89,185 rejected, 103,855 cases pending, 552,210.
The appropriation for the year was $150,000,000, and there was paid during the year $188,807,837.
Tne estimate for pensions for 1897 are $140,00(1.000 for pension payments $800,000 for surgeons' fees and $450,000 fo* clerk hire at pension agenoies and about $200,000 for other sources.
WOMAN HORRIBLY MUTILATED.
The Perpetrator of the Crime Burned at the 8take. TYLER, Tex., Oct. 80.—A horrible
murder was committed about four miles east of here Monday evening. The victim was Mrs. Leonard Bell, the 19-year-old wife of a farmer. Mrs. Bell had' been visiting her mother during the evening, and about dusk started to walk home, a distance of a half mile. I
Soon after her mutilated body was found a quarter of a mile from her home at the side of a public road. There was I every evidence of a terrible having taken place, as her body was almost nude. The fiend, after assaulting her, had cut her throat from ear to ear and completely disemboweled her.
A posse was quickly organized, aided by a hound, and followed the trail to •within four miles of Kilgore, where they found a negro named Henry Hillard fast asleep in a cotton pen. The negro's clothes were still covered with blood -which he had attempted to wash out. The posse started back to Tyler with the negro, but the rapidly gather-1 ing crowd of excited citizens soon de-1 manded the px-isoner, who was finally given up.
The mob then left for the scene of the murder, where they arrived in the after-1 noon at 3 o'clock. The crowd continued to gather at the scene of the horrible crime until nearly 2,000 citizens of Tyler and vicinity w«sre there. A few moments before the fiend was brought to the place, a meeting was held aud a committee was appointed to,investigate his identity. Witness were summoned and closely inter ogatted. The result was a thorough identification. The negro then made a full confession.
After his confession and the thorough identity, a vote was taken as to the mode of punishment. It was unanimously agreed to bum him, and it waa agreed that he should suffer his penalty on the public square. The line of march •was taken up toward Tyler and at 4 o'clock the head of the line entered the main plaza, whence no less than 7,000 people were assembled.
A scaffold was erected in the center of the square. Wagons laden with kindlingwood, coal oil and straw were driven to the scene and placed in position. The negro was then given an opportunity to speak, but his words were inaudible, but when he offered up his last prayer on earth he could be heard for several blocks.
He was then lashed to the iron rail that extended through the platform. Mr. Bell, the husband of the murdered lady, applied the match and the flames shot upward, enveloping the brute in sheets of fire. He begged for mercy and it was decided to burn him at once, and as fast as the wood thrown around him was consumed, it was quickly replenished. From the time the match was applied until he was incinerated was exa/'.tlv 50 minutes.
BANKER ~COLE" KILLED.
He Was Kun Down and Mangled by a Chicago Cable Car. CHICAGO,
Oct. 31.—G. W. Cole, presi
dent of the Bankers' and Merchants' association, was run over by a North Clark street cable car. Mr. Cole stepped into the street to take a car and did not notice one bearing down on him from the opposite direction.
He failed to get on the onejhe had intended to take and was knocked down by the other. He was dragged under the wheels and his body was mangled in a horrible manner. It was necessary to send for the wrecking crew and raise the car beiore his body could be extricated. Mr. Cole was taken to a hospital, where he died in a short time.

It was brought to my notice by a friend who had himself been greatly relieved by its use, as I have also been.
