In a recent article iu the Forum Mr. John De Witt Warner tells of a veterau who received three pensions, each on a different pension certificate, without effort on his part, but through the officious solicitude of pension ageuts. This could not have happened if pensions were issued with proper care by a businesslike method. Before the veteran In question was gotten down to his one proper pension the government had lost Another veteran got $2,000 on the basis of a wound which was received in Germany. There are great numbers of fraudulent widows and the same veteran sometimes has bad two widows on the roll.

Yet some persons think au inquiry is Dot needed A flBAW Cit-oik ok PgNsnNS. Secretary of the Interior Smith hsd sent to the Commissioner of Pensions on Saturday a decision that wiil reduce the annual expenditure for pensions from 1. to It orders the repeal of an order by General Raima regarding the disability pension act of June 27. 100. by which veterans have been getting from per month for partial disability, resulting from service in the army, but which did not develop sufficiently to cause inability to serve at the time.

Secretary Smith's decision calls for a return to the language of the statue, requiring the disability to be such as to prevent the applicant from earoiug a support by manual labor. The Secretary says "Disabilities incurred while in actual service and incapacity coming upon an applicant long after service ceased, are made by the law to stand upon an entirely different fooling. Those incurred during service and in line of duty are pensionable without regard to capacity to earn a support, and are graded without reference to this condition. Disabilities resulting from causes other than of service origin are only pensionable when incapacity to labor joins with' incapacity to earn a support." Rfpablifan Coonh fonifHtion.

By June 1 storms developing in the Western regions the last of May will be advanced toward the central parts of the country. It be quite warm, with easterly andsoulh- winds in all the eastern pans, the areas precipitation aud storms will be approaching the central parts, while the far west and northwest will have winds shifting to westerly, with rising barometer and cooler. Storms will reach the extreme east by tbe 3rd, and the change to cooler fair weather will have crossed the continent. Warm weather will center, in a progressive way, about the Otb aud 7tb, reaching a Mgh temperature, and resulting in reactionary storms and touching those dates. Westerly winds, rising barometer, with a cool spurt will follow about the 7th to first to the west, later east.

About the lOih strong indications of the solstice storms will appear. Easterly to southerly winds will prevail barometer will begin to full, and it will grow steadily warmer, resulting in many active storms from the 11th to 14'h. The temperature and storms are apt to reach a crisis about the new moon. Kenewcd activity of volcanoes and earthquake disturbances may naturally expected, though not necessarily danger ous. I hey are the readjustment of natura forces, and should be loofced upon as benefi cent, rather than calamitous.

There will be great electrical activity during these solstice storms, especially during the night, but no one should be alarmed, ss it will prove grander than disastrous. Our friends will remember the tendency of storms to whirl suddenly back from the east, from about the lOih to 2 'h of June. Showery conditions ate liable during all the period, and l-ical swirls will repeatedly fly back after passing east, unexpectedly taking the starch from the collars of careless and unsheltered peo ple. Heavier reactionary storms will pass eastward about 17th to lOtb, and should the barometer not rise, anu the wind remain east erly to southerly, a series of daily storms will fill the intervening days up to the next period From the 2 1st to 25th, inclusive, we will pass the turning point in our trip around the sun, and start for shorter days aud longer rights. It will be na'ural to expect some heavy storms, with rain and much lightning and thunder, say about 24th, Cooler weather will succeed these storms, and regions are short of moWure at the end of this period will have to contend with strious drought.

Reactionary disturbances are central on the 21Kb, with the full moon and the mi in, ox of Mercury on the same day. These combined causes are sure to re suit in a warm wave and some very active electrical storms, with heavy local rains during tbe two or three last days of June. I re month will close very cool wenth advaucing from the west, which condition will prevail in most jvtrts iu the opening days ot July.
