Important Notice to Ex-Soldiers.
To all Ex-soldiers and Sailors Residing in
the 21st Congressional District:
GENTLEMEN:
Last Saturday night President Taft
signed the new pension bill passed by
Congress. As finally agreed upon the
law provides increased pensions for 420,
965 veterans, according to the estimate
of the House and Senate conferees,
Every veteran serving 90 days or more
in the military or naval service of the
United States during the Civil war who
' has been honorably discharged, and who is
| now over 62 years of age, is cared for in
| the new law.
# For veterans 62 years old or over the
rate provided for 90 days service is $13
: per month, and it ranges to $16 per month
| up to three years service; for 66 years
old and over the rate is $15 per month
for 90 days and ranges up to $19 for three
years; for 70 years old and over the rate
for 90 days service is $18 per month and
ranges up to $25 per month for three
years service; at 75 years old and over
the rate for 90 days is $21 and ranges up
to $30 per month for three years.
All pensions shall commence from the
date of filing applications.
Mexican war soldiers who served 60
days are entitled to $30 per month,
Rank in the service is not considered
in the application.
The new law does not bar the soldier
from prosecuting his claim under any

BELLEFONTE, PA., May 13th, 1912,
In the last two editions of the Bellefonte
Republican an unfair, unwarranted and
appeared
concerning my disposition of the adver-
tising of the unseated lands of Centre
county, which I feel bound in justice to
myself to correct.
By special act of the Pennsylvania
Legislature enacted many years ago the
treasurer of this county is directed to ad-
vertise the sale in all the papers in the
county, bur allows him only one dollar
per tract to perform this. The advertise-
ment this year occupies a space of five
columns wide
depth—making in all 505 lines, and
which, at the rate charged by the county
papers for legal advertising, i. ¢. 10 cents
per line for the first insertion and 5 cents
per line for every subsequent insertion,
the six insertions would amount to $178.50
for each paper; and there being eleven
papers in the county, would aggregate a
total of $1,965.50. To pay this bill I am
allowed only $281, or one dollar per tract;
and as did not feel it incumbent upon
me to pay the balance of the $1,963.50 out
of my own pocket, I did just exactly as
my predecessors in office did und that is,
at Pine Hall next Thursday and Friday, |

the money allowed, and for which do

Two Boys Killed In Mine.

gave way.

Faints at Sight of Gallows.
As a result of being shown how the
gallows works, Mrs. Daisy Ulrich Opie
Grace, under indictment for shooting
her husband, was thrown into a faint
in the Atlanta, Ga., jail and is still in
a hysterical condition.
Mrs. Grace was lonely and asked the
jailer to show her over the prison.
The well meaning official, trying to
cheer her, took her to the galiows
room. Here he exhibited the black cap
and showed her how the noose is ad-
justed. For her benefit the trap was
sprung and she was told how with the
pulling of the big lever the condemned
! man's body falls six feet into space,
bringing up with a jerk, which nine
times out of ten breaks his neck.
As the jailer sprang the trap Mrs.
Grace screamed “Oh, I can't stand it,”
and fell in a faint. Physicians were
called and revived her, but she is
hysterical, claiming the picture of the
gallows is fixed in her mind.

Commission Rule For Atlantic City.
The commission form of government
was adopted by Atlantic City, N. J.,
by a vote of 3234 favoring to 3112
against, giving not only 400 votes more
than the necessary 30 per cent, but a
clear majority of 122 ballots over the
opposing vote.
No party lines were drawn, and the
contest throughout was on the merits
of the proposition in the estimate of
the voters. Some of the members of
the organization favored it and others
opposed it, as was the case among
the city councilmen.
The First and Fourth wards gave
majorities for the Des Moines system,
while the Second and Third wards op-
posed it by small majorities. The elec-
tion was one of the most peaceful seen
in Atlantic City.
