to tho Individual Is strictly limited,
and no ono who Is Intoxicated Is nl
toned to enter tho beer hall, nor can

"Tho evils of Intoxication on tho

whero thoy are often drugged nnd

New Pension Ruling.
"Somo years ago," said an array of
ficer, "Iho War Jleparlment held that
a soldier who was Injured whllo out

that ns hunting Is encnursged by mili
tary authorities, tho soldier In doing
what ho was encouraged to do was
not thereby taken out ot tho line of
duty.
"Following tho precedent establish
ed In that case, the department has
recontly held that a soldier whoso leg
was broken by being run over by a
street car was disabled In the lino of

soldier waa absent from his post on

ment i that la ho was going to at
tend a lecture. It was held by tho
authorities that this case was analo

granted with tho Idea that tho use
