Censer's Inquest—AßM Case.'
We made brief mention yeaterday Of the
case of Samuel Grady, who'was in the lock
up, supposed to be in a dying condition, and
hazarded the opinio n that be would not re
cover, althofigh a 'skilful physic i an:and kind
nurses attended him. Our fears *rare ,
rea-'
lized, the unfortunate man dying about
three o'clock Thursday morning. Coroner
Clawson was apprized of the fact and yes
terday afternoon held an inguest; at which
the following facts were eli cietd:
The deceased was a resident of Wilkins.
burg, aged about forty-five years, a cc a widowg
er
a hi nd o byo sta up m n , c a r o roborat Ac bydih
ers, he had been drinking to excess, and
WAS laboring ender the effects of delirium
tremens. On Monday evening alled at
the office of u ll .D. Cowley, in Ea s t Liber
ty,' and p red some medicine.. ff.he
Doctor, 'who: is called before the jury, tea
tilled that the deceased told , him he had
been on a spree "for ten weeks," and, he
'was .convinced that he was -then • on. the
verge of delirium tremens. - The Doctor
prescribed and the indict left. He is next
seen by :policenaan Tithothy Ke ll ey, on.
Tuesday night and • Wednesday morning.,
-He told the policeman he was cold and was
conveyed to Shoenberger's blast ftirnace
and was left standing in front of the boilers.
After a time he took off his coat and climb:
ed, up and laid down on the bricks between
the boilers. Believing that the man re
quired proper care and attention, word was
sent by the mill hands to the Mayor's of
fice, and after some delay he was conveyed
thither. Here he remained from about two'
o'clock in the afternoon until ten at night
before medical attendance was procured.
At that time Dr. Julian Rogers was called
and did all in his power to-tave the life of
the poor man, but his efforts, and these
who kindly assisted him, proved fruitl ess.
The Doctor testi fi ed that be died from ' ex
haustion and exposure.
The remains of the deceased were taken
in charge by his brother-inlaW, Hugh
Ward, and conveyed to his residence, No.
40 Palo Alto street, Allegheny city.
We give the bete without comment, yet
their simple recital affords abundant food,
for thought. The Coroner's fury returned
a verdict that the deceaaed came tohis death'
from destitution and exposure.:

Important to Pensioner's.
By the limitation of the Ach of Congress,
July 14, 1862, known as 1 118 ,1 Tel:talon Act,"
application for'invalid pension it not made
within one year from discharge, commenc
ed from the,date of filing the application,'
and the intermediate Period from discharge
to making application web lost, and by the
limitations of the'Act of July'4, 1864, ap
plications by widowei, minor children or
other heirs entitled to the.- benefits of the
pension lairs; were required tio'be made in'
'less than three year* nem the death of the.
soldier or sailer • on whose behalf the pen
sion was claimed. If not made;within that
period, the, commencement of the pension
Ishould date from Ming of the last paper in
'the case. The Act ,of julY 27,1888, extends
the time in both olassee of pensions to five
years from data 'of discharge or death.
Those who have not drawn a pension from
the date of their discharge from theaervice,,
or fro% the death of their relative, can coi-f
led the arrears for the intermediate period.
• Soldiers , of the war'of 1812 and the.Mex
lean war, or their heirs, are entitled tb the
samepension as those of the recent febel
lion. For further 'information we refer toltir.

young with antleipation. There is no.more
gladsome, heartwarming and welcome hol
iday in the whole calendar than the anni
versary of the birth of Christ in the stable
of Bethlehem. It smoothes the wrinkles
on our brows, takes put the gray hairs
from our locks, • loosens our heEtrta and
makes children of us alt. In In its presence
we forget business cares, throw aside anx
iety and glve ourselves -up to pleasure and
enjoyment.. With Christmaa comes the
happy, season for present - making, and few
there are who do not expect, some offering
of love, gratitude and friendship from
friends and relatives. The custom is a timo
honored,:and - hallowed one and, we think
there is no reader so lost to generous im
pulse, and so self:tab, as to refuse to ac
knowledge it as the very -poetry

tude.' Presuming that all are anxious to
become donors during the holidays, a few
words abcent what will serve beet for pres

mothers, daughters, wives, nieces and
sweet hearts, the gentlemen can purchase
