WIDOWS OF THE REVOLUTION.
"ifvrn liiionrr U lio HuabamU Served
Under Washington
Seven women are still drawing pen-
sions r.s the widows of men who saw
active strvice in the wr of the revolu-
tion; woiaen whose husbands served
uader Washington more than 120 years
r.so says the Ladies' Home Journal.
The eldost of these surviving widows
f the revolution is living In Los An-
geles Cal. She is Mrs. Lovey Ald.ich.
now in the 98th year of her age. Her
husband was Private Caleb Aldrlch.
who wat born in the year 1703 and
served as a soldier boy In the New
'Jngland campaigns of the war. Mrs.
N'aney Jones of Jonesborough. Tenn.
whose husband was Darling Jones a
private In one of the North Carolina
: s?iments. is the youngtst of the revo-
lutionary widows beln- now about 83
yi-ars of age. The other five are
Nancy Clou.i. who is living at Chum.
Va. and is the widow of Sergt. Wil-
liam Cloud of Capt. Christian's Vir-
ginia line; Esther S. Daman of Plym-
outh Union. Vt.. whose husband was
Private Noah Damon of Massachusetts;
Mary Snead living at Parksley. Va..
widow of Private Bowdoin Snead:
Nancy A. Weatherman who lives at
Elk Mil's. Tcnn. and whose first hus-
band was Robert Glascock a fifer in
one of tha Virginia regiments and Re-
becca Mayo living at Newburn Va..
widow of Stephen Mayo a soldier from
Virginia. That these women can bo
the widows of revolutionary soldiers
can be readily understood in view of
the fact that their husbands were well
on In years when they married. As. for
example when Esther Summer mar-
ried Noah Damon in the year 1S35
fifty-two years after the close of the
war she was but 21 while he was C7.
The last revolutionary pensioner who
had married prior to the close of the
war and had therefore actually l:vd
during revolutionary times was Nancy
Serena widow of Daniel F. Bakeman.
She died about twenty-seven years :iro.
only a year or two after her husband
who was the last of the revolutionary
soldiers on the pension roll.

A story of shocking depravity on the
part of poultry is told by the London
Weekly Dispatch. It seems that a Mr.
Laggan appeared In court and claimed
50 pounds damages from a local dis-
tillery company 'for injury done his
hens "by the said company having al-
lowed intox-cating materials to Ho
into the Laggan burn." Mr. Laggan
stated that for some years past he h:i.i
been making a considerable inconn-
from keeping poultry but since t!i
starting of he distillery he had made
little or nothing. His hens and du. ks
would not eat. They were he laigh;
say airao.-t always more or less uu Kr
tlie influence of drink except Sundays
when t.'ie distillery was not working.
On Si '.days their condition was pitiabl-
in the extreme. Monday was thti:
worst day. for th:i the hens drank ex-
cessively fell into the burn frequently
and lately ho had been obliged to keep
a boy 'o lo k after them on Moudoy
mornirt-?. Their conduct on shore was
generally rep ehensible. and the ducks
were no Vtter than the hens. Sheriff
Macta.iMi declared that the case wsv
so pec-liar that he should have to
postpone his decision.
Auother Trouble.
"The present trouble is that there
are too many men for the number of
Jobs" said the amateur lecturer on
the s'tuation. "And that ain't all mis-
ter." Interrupted Dismal Dawson.
"Another trouble is that there is too
much work to the Job after a man gets
It." Indianapolis Journal.
Not Itlood.
"Who Is that bloodthirsty-looking
gentleman standing by the theater?"
asked the guest.
"Col. Gore from Kentucky" the
clerk answered. "But you shouldn't
Judge a man by his looks. It is not
blood the colonel has a thirst for. Oh
no." Indianapolis Journal.
Rot-hefort's Income.
Litigation between M. Koehefort
editor and M. Vaughan manager of
the Intransigeat. and decided in favor
Of the latter has revealed the fact that
In the last seven years M. Rochefort
has received TOO.OOOf. as editor and 1-
700000f. in dividends on bis shares or
altogether 342.OO0L a year.
Abtent-Mioded.
Soxy: "I hear Payst the editor ir
likely to be divorced by his wife for
cruelty." Knoxey: "What! He's the
meekest cf men." Soxey: "It seems
she brought lome a new dress which
she told him was a perfect poem and
he absently tried to throw it in. the
fire." Pittsburp News.

A Fortune.
If it was money all would
quickly grasp the chance. Now
let me implore you it is far ahead
of money or pearls. For some
time I have seriously thought of
doing what I now propose to say
through the Ardmorf.ite but
through timidity I have withheld
it. However I have Weenie sat-
isfied that it is my duty WforeJod
and man to publish what I am go-
ing to say and feeling it my duty
I shall do so. I am iu possession
of a treatment by which I can suc-
cessfully cure any case of mor-
phine cocaine or opium habit that
is curable without pain or misery
and will convince the most skep-
tical if they will see me. All shall
be strictly in confidence if desired.
I am uot a doctor by profession
but through a like condition and
sad experience and I am proud to
say that I cau relieve thoc who
may desire such relief and if there
should be one who reads this arti-
cle and wishes to be ctlled. please
come and see jw and I will take
pleasure in talking with you mi
the subject and I think greatly
to your interest. I will say that if
you want to be cured the cure will
be guaranteed. Hut if you like
the effect of the accursed drug
more than to be free don't take
up my time for mere curiosity. I
know something of the bittir
pangs of the awful habit from
which however I am proud to say
I am free an! now in position to
free others if t'.ey want such free-
dom. It is no disgrace if brought
about from necessary treatment
and to those who have fallen vic-
tims I extend my deepest sympa-
thy. There is relief and why
procrastinate Most obediently
yours J S. H. APollos.
