Pensions and the’G. A. R.
The re is one passage in thendd1'ess Of
the Commander of the Grand army
made at its monster convention in Ken-
tuck .1y the present week, that will at—
trect the seiioue attention of every pas
triot in the land. .. It is a most serious
arrangement of Secretary Hoke Smith
and his Commissioner ‘of Pensions
Lochi'en, and ‘the gravest pert Of the
matter is that the accusation“ is unques’-
tiona‘oiy true. General L-leer’s charge
is that the pension laws are being de-
liberately administered unjustly, Op-
preSsively 11nd cruelly in that the pen-
sions of old soldiers too poor to test the
constitutionality of the proceeding in
the. courts are being reduced or taken
away altogether the and
pleasure Of an executive officer. “I
know this is being done all over the
land for I have seen the evidences of, it
in every department in which I have
at. will
D
been,” he says. He suggests that the
Grand Army itself, through its council
Of administrati 1n, make at est and fight
it through to a decision. To do this
will involve delays reaching beyond the
life of the present hostile pension de-
partment, when it is likely the old sol-
diers will seek redress at the polls.

the .

But it appears that a change in the
line of the route will be suggested, on
account of the great- physical obstacles
sanctioning 11nd summit of the ex;-
on the present line. The commission-
ers think that the work on the new line
could be completed in about seven
years, 11m cost of $110,000,000.

"It will be time to accede to Great

John Bull So're.
British newspapers have a. great deal
to say just at present about the "bid
manners” and selfish conduct of the
American people, particularly that por-
tion of the latter which flocked to the
scene of the recent yacht races. The
organs which are thus giving vent to
their humiliation and disappointment
over the defeat of the Valkyrie III, ~by
indulging in spiteful flingsat this coun-
try have highly convenient memories.
Whatever may have been the faults of
the throngs which witnessed the recent
races they were not guilty of such out-
rageous boorishness as that which was
exhibitel towaid the owner and crew of
the Vigilant in Great Britain last year
and toward the Cornell rowing team at
the Henley regatta'tnis your. Toward
Lord Dunruvcn and every one connect-
ed with the British yacht they have
manifested only the utmost kindliness
and comps; ‘
Undoubtedly it was inconsiderate on
the part of the captains of some Of the
excursion steumboets in not taking
greater precaution to give the. British
and Americun racers a. free comes.
At lhe slime time it is to be remember-
ed that popular interest in this country
over the outcome of the struggle for
“the America’s Cup has been intense,
and that, while there has been a gener-
al desire that the Defender might win,
there has been no disposition that she
should do so at the expense of 11m play.
00515.
It is also to be borne in mind that if the
English boat suffered from outside in-
terference her, American: competitor
lisuflered in an equal if not" greater de-
gree from the some cause. . It is not
likely, however, that British pique will
be alloyed by such considerations.
John Bull is plainly sore over the
trounciug he has received, and the
best thing to dO is to to let him grow] it
out. The cup is legitimately ours and
we can afford to let him sir his grumpy
temper.

The Case of State vs. James H.
O’Reilly, an ex-burgess Of this city,
came up in the Town Court before
Judge Hubbell, this morning. The
prisoner was charged with committing
an‘atrocious assault upon his father,
Edward O’Reilly.
E. J. Finnegan testified to buying
seen the prisoner have his father down
on the ground and with an upraised
beer bottle in his hand. He stated that
he pulled O’Reilly Off from his father.
Edward O’Reilly testified as to the
assault and said that his son threatened
to kill him and for protection he armed
himself With a. piece of plank. He said
that his son jumped over the fence and
knocked him down after he had warned
him to keep Off the premises. He
spoke of him as a brute and asserted
that he had frequently abused and
threatened his wife.
The prisoner’s mother also testified
against her son and substantiated the
evidence of her husband.
The prisoner’s wife was placed 011 the
stand, but whether from fear 01' some-
thing else. she declined to testify
against the man, who it is alleged, ter-
ribly misuses her.
Mr. O'Reilly appeared in his own de-
fense but did not cross-examine his pur-
ente. He Said however, it was his faith-
er who committed the assault, and de-
nied that he struck his father, who by
the wsyis an old man and in feeble
health.
Judge Hubbell found the prisoner
guilty and imposed a title of $50 and
O’Reilly took an appeal and was
ordered to furnisha bond of 0100 for

In Love with a Governor’s Daughter
As briefly mentionedin these'columns
yesterday, Harry flopsou has left town.
It is understood that ho was accompan.
ied by another young man named
Charles Kelley, who came here from
Orange, N. J., about two months ago,
sincewhi‘ch time, it is stated, he has
been subsisting on the generosity Of
two friends, Wendell Ashton, of Elm
street, this city, and Arthur Dennis, of
Water street, South Norwalk. It is
stated that the two runaways left on a
midnight freight train, Wednesday.
It will be remembered that about
two ye -1rs 1101) young Hopson run away
With 9. .ud named Loomis, and was
taken sick with 11 fever while in Texas,
and thinking that he could not survive,
his father was sent for, and as soon as
be vice convalescent, accompanied him
back to Norwalk.
Since his return, and especially dur-
ing the past summer. Hops-on has fre-
quently expressed himself as wanting
to go South again, and hits said that he
should improve the first Opportunity of
so doing. It is known that he has been
exchanging letters with Harry Hyatt,
formerly of. this city, who recently
Went to 'I‘allapoosa, Ale... to reside, and
who is to have charge of the Spencer.
grape exhibit at the Atlanta exposition,
which opens Oct. 1.111., audit is believed
that city is the place for which be has
started.
Before leaving this city he donned
his brother Jesse’s best suitof clothes,
ewdently intending to make a good up-
pearance when he boarded the freight
train. It is thought that he had about
$50 in money with him. Hopson is
quite well known in town, having been
an active member of the Y. M. C. A.
foot and base bell teams, on the latter
of which he played third base. He is a
painter by trade.
A GAZETTE reporter is informed that
there is a bit of romance in connection
with his former stay in Texas. During
his sickness, so the story runs, a daugh-
ter of Governor Hogg took a. kindly
interest in him and ministered to his
wants. Hopson fellin love with her but
it is not known that it was reciprocated
by the young lady.
Some, of his friends profess to believe
that his real destination is Texas, and
that the attraction is the Governor’s
daughter. They will all anxiously
await a le for from him, as they know
he has a. great penchant for writing
letters. If he marries the governor’s
daughter it may be that he will invite
his more intimate friends to the wed-
ding.
Welcome Home.

. Farewell Performances.
Puck’s comedians close ltheir week’s
engagement at the Opera. House to-
night, with what is claimed to be their
very best entertainment. ‘fThat Bad
Boy” is the card for this evening when
Miss Arnot will don male attire for the
first time here, and an abundance of
new songs and dances will be given.
No one who enjoys a hearty evening of
fun, should fail to see the final perfor-

Mlnnle Lester all Next Week.
“Nothing so successful as success.”
This old saying seems to hold particu-
larly good in the case of Minnie Lester,
who begins an engagement of six nights
and four matinees at Hoyt’s Opera
House, on Monday evening next, in
the very funny comedy drama,
“Madgefl” Miss L'eSter has met with
success ever since her initial perform-
ance. She has danced herself into the
hearts of the people and has become a
fixed favorite. Miss Lester, with her
new music, funny commedians, famous
orchestra, beautiful scenery and com p11.-
ny of artists will undoubtedly do 11 big
business all next week.

Brooklyn Handicap.
The beautiful comedy-drama, “I‘he
Brooklyn Handicap” is advertised fou
production at the No rwalk Opera
House on Tuesday evening next. The
play is replete with those sensational
situations which include two cleverly
frustrated attempts at. the robbery of a
diamond necklace, the first of which
causes the hero of the play to be ac-
cused and arrested, mistakenly, for the
theft. The greatest amount of interest
is centered in the handicap scene, which
is really a cleverly coustrnced represen-
tation ofthe Gravcsend race track, and
the picture is made still more realistic
by the presence of alarge number of
spectators, ldhts‘, jockeys and seven

THE CASE AGAINST 11111111111.
111's. Crossett Saw Him and Blanche La-
mont on the Way to the Church.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 14.—The prose-
cution of Theodore Durant is prepared
now to produce a witness who is expected
to overwhelm the young student and de-
stroy his last hope of an alibi. One who
knows him well, who left the city that she
might not-be forced to testify against him,
will go upon the witness stand and testify
that on the afternoon of April 3 she rode
to the mission upon the same car with
Blanche Lamont and Durant.
As the car traveled on its way she no-
ticed the young schoolgirl carefully. She
observed her clothing, noted her books,
watched her movements and followed her
conversation with the young student. The ‘
girl was unknown to her, but she had
watched Durant from his childhood as
she would one of her own children.
Shortly after 4 O’clock the car arrived at
Twenty-second street. The woman who
had been interested in the young couple
arose to leave the car. Durant and the
schoolgirl were already on the way out.
The student assisted the girl from the car
and then gave his hand to the old lady.
The three walked to the sidewalk together
and stopped there for a. moment to chat.
Durant introduced Blanche Lamont to
the old lady, and in a fewminutes left her
to proceed down Twenty-second street to-
ward Bartlett ' street. He and Blanche,
talking, and laughing, walked toward the
church. The story will be told by Mrs.
J ames'Crossett, who lives with friends in
the mission. Mrs. Crossett knows Du-
rant too well to be mistaken. The very
conditions of 'the case make it impossible
for an error to be committed. Mrs. Cros-
sett not only saw Durant, but took his
hand and spoke to him. She will be
placed upon the witness stand next week.
