Second Monday in Februrary, 1892
The owner of property on the lirst day of April, in any year, shall be liable for the Taxes of that year. The purchaser of property on the first day of April is considered under the statute as the owner on that da}'. Section 103.
DUTY OF TAX-PAYERS AND THOSE ORDERING BY MAIL. It is tho duty of each tax-payer to state what he is taxed on, and where situated, and if in more than one township, to state the different townships, gravel roads and ditches upon which he pays. 1 would urge upon tax-payers the importance of paying early and avoiding the rush of tho last few days, and especially those who have their taxos complicated, such as undivided estates, are requested to call when we .are at leisure, as it requires time to mako tho divisions and write separate receipts.
Examine your Tax Receipts before leaving the office, and see that they include all your property, and that there is no mistake in your change. Persons owing delinquent taxes will save costs and trouble by settling immediately.

THE THRUSH AND THE SNAIL.
tluj Fecials RsaUr Managed to Swallow ti« Tidbit. "It i\ I think, well to record the following observations of the intelligence of th« thrush," »»yg a writer in Nature. "The first happened on Jnna A3, 1836. I then saw from the windows that look ont on tho lawn north of my hovuso a thrash steadily 'stepping' westward' in front of the hedge thai parts the lawn from tho public road. The bird seemed to be intentionally malting for a gravel path that, after passing almost close to its windows, bends to tba northwest, toward tlio small grate of my front garden. It, was bearinpr something in its bilL On coming to the path it attempted to break this on a stone. It did not succeed. It then triotd another stone. This time it succeeded. Thereupon it flew away. On tho spot I found a remarkably big stone embedded in the path and ronnd it were scattered bits of snail shell. The bird had eaten the snail. The second of the observations I would note, imd the more striking of tho two, happened on June 5, 1890. I then was viewing1 the gravel path from the westernmost of the four windows. Just beneath me standing on the path was a female thrush. She had succeeded in breaking a snail shelL She had the snail in hor bill. But despite vigorous efforts she could not swallow it. Up hopped a male tliruah. Standing before the female he opened his bill. She dropped the snail into his bill. He chewed the snail. lie dropped it back into tho female's roady bill. She swallowed it. Tho pair blithely trotted of? side by side toward the small gate. I saw them no more."
STUDENT AND BEGGAR.
The Latter WA» Never Appreciated Until After Deuth. A young medical student in New York hod a remarkable experience recentlj', says the N. Y. Sun. He belongs to that sort of young men who are compelled to depend almost entirely upon their own resources to obtain their education and he spends his evenings in a downtown office. For a long time he was accosted by a professional beggar, a strapping big fellow with a stiff neck, while passing through City Hall park. The beggar accosted him night after night in an insolent manner. Frequently it was difficult for the medical student to get rid of the beggar, and they rarely parted without an exchange of epithets. This thing went on for some time, a.ml than the beggar suddenly disappeared. One morning shortly after this t.he medical student went into the dissecting room to dissect a body. He was surprised to find that the body assigned to him was that of the troublesome beggar. The student had often wondered what was the matter with the fellow's neck, and now ho had an opportunity to find out. lie dissected the body and found that, a layer of bone had grown down the neck, preventing the head from being movod backward or forward. One of the attendants mounted the skeleton for the student, and it now stands complete in his room at the foot of the bed.
STRANDED AMERICANS.
Iiuudredft or Unfortunates In Scnth America lOnclonvorinR to GcS Homo. A civil engineer who has recently returned from South America says, according to tho Dallas News: "I saw hundreds of Americans standing on tho wharves at Buenos Ay res and Santiago pleading with the ship captains to bripg them away. They are willing to do any sort of menial work to get away." They are in a wretched condition. Material progress on the continent has been ruined by the revolution in the Argentine Republic and the recent internecine stru^ffl0
U1
that
Chili. ailroad building
has been stopped and English gold, which lias been the developing influence, has been cut off by tho unsettled condition of things. No man knows what the morrow will bring forth. "Young men laboring under the delusion that South America is an Eldorado had better disillusionize themselves at once. It is the last place on earth to go for bettering one's chances. After another ten ycftirs have gone by things may improve down there, but there has got to be a considerable settling down all around before you can expect any good to come out of South America."
HE COULDN'T DEADHEAD.
Bartle.y Wrote tlie l'lay, But llo Didn't Get Into tho Theater. The late Hartley Campbell, tho playwright, one day found himself ir, a small but "hustling" mining town in the far west, says the New York Telegram. He saw that a play of his that had been pirated wq^pfo be presented at tfhc theater thtdl. JjSj&t. Ho went to the play house andt&jSKhe ticket taker that he would like to see the "show." "Who are you?" asked the manager. "My name is Hartley Campbell," was the reply. "J don't know you," returned the manager. "Oh. yes you do," said Campbell, "I am Hartley Campbell, tlie author of this play, and I want to see how you are doin«- it." "How do I krojv yon Hartley Campbell?" snrii!./demanded iaa oirale manager. "Why," answered Campbell, pm:
1
to a horrible picture of tlie author ui. a poster, "there's my portrait."' "Come off," said the manager. "You can't play^fcat game on me That portrait ain't a bit like yer. and if it was we don't let no deadheads into this show-"
Poacnfol Arbitration.
The best Irnown of the peaceable settlements of international controversies was that between tho United States and Great Britain, in 1872, on account of the "Alabama claims," which matter was referred to five arbitrators named by tho Upited Statesf England, the Swiss republic, the king of Italy and tho emperor of Brazil, respectively. In a dispute between England and France in 1843 .the king of Prussia actcd as arbitrator. A controversy between the United States and Portugal in I860 was referred to Louis Napoleon, who was at
time pi^sident of Prance.
THE PIRATES OF FRANCE.
Til© 1» 11-w.^iug Work to Stamp Out Outlawry la Tonkin, The French for a year past have been having a very lively time with the pirates in Tonkin. Some months ago the newspapers described these roving bands of outlaws, most of them composed of criminals from China, who Hook over the border to prey upon the natlvos of the adjoining eountry. Prance decided a year ago to wipe them out, for they were keeping the country in constant alarm, and were embolded to invade not only the settlements of the interior highlands, but also to push down to .the very coast and to attack small bodies of the French soldiery. Most of tho pirate bands are well armed, and although they have met with vory serious reverses they are still unsubdued.
The French have met them repeatedly in partios of twenty to a hundred men, and Qeroe fights have generally occurred. In the campaign against the pirates, which began in April last, two thousand French soldiers took the field. Within three months eleven hundrod pirates wore killed, of whom about seven hundred and fifty met their fate in battle, while the others were captured and executed. Acoording to tho latest reports hardly a day has passed since June 1 without some encounter. The pirates have been almost invariably worsted until recently. Recent reports say, however, that the pirates appear to have received large re-en-forcements.
A detachment of soldiers who were protecting a parly of workingmen engaged in building a French fortification were attacked, and thirteen of the French, including L^eut. Levecq, were killed or wounded. Tho pirates afterward beheaded Lieut. Levecq and seven of his men. When the pirates are led to execution they meet their death with the most absolute indifference. The present war is certain to end in favcr of the French, though the pirates have the great advantage that they can retreat to their mountain fastnesses, where it is difficult to pursue them, and wait there quite free from molestation until they have recruited their strength and are ready for fresh forays.
JACK IN A FIX.
Sorrows of a Doc That Climbed a Ti After a Squirrel. At dusk one day lately Jack, a fox terrier belonging to Jason Fellows, of Green township, got after a. gray squirrel in a pasture on Mr. Fellows' farm, says a Scran ton correspondent of the New York Sun. The squirrel skipped up the trunk of a mammoth maple tree just as Jack was about to seize it, and the plucky dog shinned up the tree also. Mr. Fellows tried to call him down, but Jack stuck his nails into the tough bark and tugged and clung until he had climbed to the crotch, fifty-two feet from the ground. By that time the squirrel .was chattering on one of the topmost limbs, and Jack couldn't got any further. lie couldn't get down, either, and he began to howl and whine for his master to help him. It was soon dark, and Mr. Fellows hustled around to find some way of reaching Jack and lowering him to the ground. Ho and his sons tried in vain to climb the tree, and then they went among their neighbors and got several,volunteers. No one was able to climb it, and Jack continued to whine up there in the dark. By nine o'clock all the nearby farmers had heard of Jack's predicament and wera under the tree with lanterns. There wasn't a ladder in the neighborhood long enough to reach half way to Jack, and along toward midnight three ladders were taken to the spot, lashed together and hoisted against the tree. Then Albert Fellows started to climb up with a surcingle and a long rope. Tho bottom ladder broke and gave him a pretty hard fall, and the attempt to rescue Jaclc was postponed till daylight. Mr. FellcwS an?, \iis Sons worked until two o'clock to make new ladder and then they went to bed. Jack howled mournfully all night up in tho big maple, and the members of Mr. Fellows' household got very little sleep. When daylight came Jack was still begging to be saved, and the men fastened the new ladder to tho other ones. Then Ausil Fellows climbed up, buckled the surcingle around Jack and lowered him at the end of a rope.
When he reached the ground he began to bark for joy and the saucy squirrel chattered at him from the treetop.
Tho Mind's Mysterious Workiiis:*. In the Marchioness of Dufferin's Canadian Journal there is an account of one of those "coincidences" which Dr. Weathcrly is at much pains to explain away: You remember that I told you that a poor man servant of ours was drowned at the M'mgan. As we knew nothing about his people we were unable to communicate the news of his death to them, so I), ordered any letters tan' .' -'nt arrive for him to be brought1 hlmsciT fl :-«t. of "se —which we have just ....—•.v.. from a servant girl to whom he was attached at Ottawa, and was dated exactly seven days after the accident. In it she 3.:ld: "I have been in my new place a week and I like it very much, out I had such a dreadful dream o.i the day of my arrival. I dreamt that you aud Nowc.ll were upset in a boat together, bat you were drowned." As the spot is in an uninhabited region on the coast of Labrador, more than live hundred miles from Ottawa, without either telegraph or posts, it was impossible that she should have received the news of her lover's death when this letter was written.
Iiumeoso Sharks.
Basking sharks, which at maturity measure from thirty to forty feet in length, are easily approached and harpooned, and on the west coast of Ireland as many as fivo hundred have been taken in a single season. The liver often weighs as m-uch as two tons, yielding six to eight barrels of oil. A few years ago, when sharks' oil was of greater value than it is at present, the oil from
a
single full-sized specimen would
often
realize from'two hundred to two hundred and fifty dollars.
