In 1863 Henry Jester, of Tuscola, who was at that time a Union soldier, received disabilities which caused him to partially lose his eyesight. He continued in this condition for nine years, when he became totally blind and helpless, and in addition became nn imbecile. Having no home, he was assigned quarters in the Douglas county poor farm, where he has remained over since. Meanwhile efforts were being made by John MoGinnis, a pension solicitor of Tuscola, to secure him ajpension, and this effort has been successful, as papers received from Commissioner Black notifying the properSpereons that the claim of Jester lias at last been allowed, and a certificate for 810,700 back pay has been forwarded to Mrs. Mulligan, of Chicago, and the blind veteran will now exchange his home it the poor house for one more comfortable.

The total amount of back pay which will tall to Jester and his two children will be in the neighborhood of $17,000, and he will in future receive a monthly stipland of 872. DB.

Deoatur was lucky yesterday, the cyclonic features of the storm kindly giving us the go-by. At Illiopolis the roof was blown from the Masonic Hall, and window panes were broken by the hailstones, some of which were as large BS hens' eggs.

Shelby ville the tornado blew off halfttkhe tin roof on Thomas M. Thorn- roqfe residence, part of it being carried 500 feet. L. B. Stepheuson'a barn was demolished and a 'fine team of horses killed.

Three or four buggies were blown off the bridge approach just east of the city, some of the occupants receiving serious injuries, Throughout the town, shade trees were blown down and outbuildings overturned. At Tolono the cloud came up rapidly, and when the storm reached the town it made havoc in its path, uprooting trees and razing buildings and fences to the ground. Kens' livery stable, on Vorey street, was out in two, the east end being torn to fragments, one of the flying timbers, after passing over Redhead Salisbury's store and going a distance of 100 yards, crashed through the side of the Herald building. The carpenters and painters, who were repairing the Catholic church steeple had barely time after the cloud appeared to descend from their scaflold 100 feet high. Russell Reynolds and the Miller brothers preceded Marion Moore down the ladder, and just as he touched the ground the scaffold was caught by the wind, and in a twinkling was twisted and torn into splinters and scattered broadcast for a hundred yards or more.

At Savoy Station, five miles north, the new Methodist Church, just being completed, was demolished, as also was Dun lap's large hay-press barn. Son's.

AB Arithmetical The sidewalk stroller of tho Chicago Journal submits the following arithmetical puzzle: "There wore three boys engaged in selling apples; two of them bnd thirty apples each, and the third had sixty apples, or exactly as many as the other two put together. Tho first boy sold his apples at two for one cent, and therefore took in fifteen cents. The second sold his apples at three for one cent, and therefore took in ten cents. The two took in twenty-five cents. But the third boy sold his sixty apples at five for two cents, and therefore took in twenty-four cents.

How can this be accounted for? To sell five apples for two cents ought to bring as much as to sell two of them for one cent, and the other three for another cent, but it seems that it does not, if different people own the two apples and the three." I am still pondering this perplexing situation, and am hoping to dis- oovflr some important application of it to my private finances. MARRIED. 'By Rev. T. W.
