Latter’s Arm Was Useless But Not
Amputated—Ingenious Interpre
tation of Provision Results
in Larger Allowance.
Lone Tree, la.—In a letter found
among the effects of the late John W.
Jayne of Lone Tree, is told the man
ner in which President Roosevelt se
cured an increase of pension for Whit
taker Jayne, of Colorado, the son of
John W. Jayne. The two Jaynes, fa
ther and son, one a middle-aged man
and the other a mere youth, served
throughout the civil war together in
the same regiment, until Whittaker
Jayne was wounded at the battle of
Shiloh and was honorably discharged,
his right arm being disabled. It is
with this arm that the Roosevelt story
has to do.
When the president was on a hunt
ing expedition in Colorado early in his
present administration, he stopped for
some days near the ranch owned by
Mr. Jayne and was an occasional vis
itor on the property. The first time
Mr. Roosevelt came to the house there
was a demonstration in his honor by
all the little folks in the neighborhood.
The children carried flags and sang
patriotic songs in honor of the presi
dent.
Mr. Roosevelt had not met Mr.
Jayne, had never even heard of him,
but as he came up he said in his char
acteristic, hearty manner:
“I might have known an old soldier
lived here. No one else would have
arranged su<5h a patriotic demonstra
tion.”
When the two men were introduced
the president noticed that Mr. Jayne
extended his left hand.
‘‘What is the matter with your right
arm?” he asked.
The old soldier replied that it was
shattered by a bullet at the battle of
Shiloh, that the elbow' was stiff.
“Do you get a pension?" was the
next query, and then: “How much?”
“Don’t vou know',’ asked Mr. Roose
BOONE'S COFFiN IDENTIFIED.
Relative of Famous Trapper Tells of
Early Days.
St. T/utis.—Lorance N. Boone of
Webster Groves, Mo., a great-grandson
of Daniel Boone, Is positive that the
body of the famous trapper was re
moved from the Bryan cemetery, near
Martinsville, Mo., and reinterred at
Frankfort, Ky. He discredits a state
ment made recently by Rev. R. E.
McQuie of Montgomery, Mo., to the
effect that the body disinterred was
not Boone’s.
Daniel Boone died at the home of
his son. Col. Nathan Boone, near Mar
tinsville.
“My father, John Boone," said
Lorance Boone, “was Col. Boone's
youngest son. He was present when
Daniel dietB and I often heard him
tell stories about his grandfather.
“The coffin in which Daniel Boone
was buried was purchased by him ten
years before his death. He had been
very sick and my grandfather, be
lieving his father about to die, went
to St. Charles, Mo., and had a box of
rough wood made in which to bury
him.
“But Daniel got well and did not
like the coffin, so he destroyed it and
went, to St. Charles to get a coffin
to his own liking. He had one made
of black walnut and took it back to
Martinsville with hint. It was put
in the attic. I have often heard my
father tell how the children used to
play in it.
“It was in this box that Daniel
Boone was buried, and this is the one
that was found at the time of the dis
interment. My fcther was present
then and I have heard him say that
the coffin was well preserved. It was
opened, but only a few bones were
left. The coffin of Daniel Boone’s wife
was well preserved, too. Her remains
were removed to Frankfort with her
husband's. Stones marked both
graves."

Kermit Roosevelt Is Official Photog
rapher for Jungle Hunt.
New York.—Kermit Roosevelt is to
be the official photographer with the
president's party on the African hunt
ing trip. In preparation for this im
portant work the young man is study
ing with Frank M. Chapman, the or
nithologist of this city.
The responsibility which will rest
on Kermit's shoulders will be heavy,
for all his father's accounts of his ad
ventures in the jungles of the dark
continent are to be illustrated. It is
understood the president is anxious to
bring back photographs of rare Afri
can birds and other animals taken in
life for the big museums, including the
Smithsonian institution at Washing
ton and the American Museum of Na
tural History here.
It is said the president was anxious
to have Mr. Chapman accompany him,
but when tins was found to be impos
sible. ii was dots* mined that Kermit
should get a. camera outfit and be
trained in the use of it.
Mr. Chapman has long been a friend
of the president. He is associate
curator of th d- ; Cm«»nt of ornithol
ogy of tlio Mu- omi atiiial History,
and has made , Mu I. of a photograph
ing of bird i and auana!.;.
Goats’ ncofs Stop a Leak.
Trinidad, Ct.’o Goats have been
put to a novel use in the American
Srodting and h'-fltting Company at
Cokedale. Trouble with leaking reser
voirs baffled the engineers of the com
pany until Engineer Su'ton and Supt.
Bayles determined to use goats to help
them ou. of their dilemma.

velt, when he had learned the amount,
“that if your right arm had been am
putated above the elbow you would
receive a much larger pension?”
Mr. Jayne knew it.
The president continued:
“So you have an arm and you have
not an arm. What you have is use
less and you ought to get as large a
pension as if you didn’t have it. Now,
I don't regulate the pensions, but I
name the men who do, and I am go
ing to use my influence to get you the
pension you deserve."
The president did not forget ills
promise. Before he left he asked Mr.
Jayne if he had any pension blanks,
and receiving an affirmative reply, ob
tained one of them.
The next Sunday Mr. Jayne went to
church with his family. Mr. Roose
velt was there and, seeing Mr. Jayne
on the other side of the building, went
over to him at once.
“I sent the blank to Washington,”
the president said, “and you can now
be expecting your increase.”
The letter to the late John W Ja>na
was written immediately <fter this last
conversation, so it does not record the
change, but any one who knows Mr.
Roosevelt's penchant for getting things
done may easily guess that Mr. Jayne
is drawing a pens: m for the arm
which lost its usefulness at Shiloh.
