Tbe coroner's jury returned a verdict of suicide, and there was evidently a dehlerate inten tion to conceal identity, as even the laundry marks oo the clothing bad been destroyed, and not even a scrap of writ ing could be found to serve aa a tracer." The band boys here are at a loss to lo cate the suicide and establish his iden tity. The supposition is tbat it is one Fred Hsllett, who lived here about four months.Uoaviog about tbe first of the vear. He rau a restaurant for a while in the Panott building and also at anoth er time tbe lunch stand in the .Senate saloon. He was not a member of the Roeeburg band but played in it some times.

The clerk of No. tho Noel family Tickets for sale and seats reserved at commandant may, in bis discretion, al low such persons to retain a portion of such pension ; and if such persons have no dependent families or relatives and draw a pension, tbey shall turn tbe same over to tbe borne, but may be allowed a portion thereof, at tbe discretion of tbe commandant." Nor is this all. Every inmate befoie be entered tbe home made aud sub scribed to an affidavit concerning bis condition, bis service to tbe country, etc, In the course of that affidavit, if be has set forth tbat be ia receiving a pension be says : ' ' Said applicant further agrees to trsnifer to said soldiers' borne all amounts received by him as such pen eioner immediately on receipt of the same while a member of said home, to bold and dispose of tbe same as provided for by tbe rules and regulations made by the board of trustees of said home. Said applicant further swears that be is a citi xen of Oregon, and tbat be will comply with the by-laws of the Oregon Soldiers' Home while a member thereof, and to abide by and obey all rules and regula tions made by tbe board of trustees oi said borne, or by their order, and to per form all tbe duties required of him and to obey all lawful orders of tbe officers of the home." So it appears tbe order was no new thing but was just to give direction to laws already written. And further, the government lakes care of tbe indi gent soldier wbo once risked bis ail for the government and provides tbe ueces saries and a few luxuries, that ought to lis sufficient. Tbe pension ia given to provide against want. If other provi ion is made, then tbe pension is not place.
