A Dangerous Animal. A minister in a neighboring town gives one of his brethren the following atlvice. It is probable the minister does not speak as a matter of faith, but of experimental knowledge. “We hereby warn our brethren that those bladder-wheeled bicycles are devises of the denv n of darkness. They are contrivances to entrap the feet of the unwary ami skin the nose of the inne cent. They are full of guile and deceit. When you think you have broken one to ride and subdued its wild and satanic nature, behold it bucketh you otf in the road and teareth a great hole in your pants. Looketh not upon the bicycle when it bloatetli up its wheels, for at last it bucketh like a broncho and hurteth like thunder. Who hath skinned legs? Who has ripped breeches! They that daily long with a diabolical bicj’cle.” How to Name Twii h. An exchange tells a good story it heard the other day of a father a id mother who were trying to find j names for their twin babies, w ho by the waj T were girls. It was decided that the father must name , them. After casting about and i finding no names that exactly suited him, he determined to end the strain on his mind and named them “Kate and Duplicate.” In the course of time another pair of twins came, and they were boys. This was the husband’s opportunity to get even, and he wanted his good wife to christen the boys. Imagine his feelings when the mother one day told him she had named the boys “Pete and Repeat.”

The views of the democratic papers of Putnam on the matter of finances ate deep, powerful and convincing.

New Money Order. Postmasters are receiving in structions from the department at Washington that a new money or der will go into use with the beginning of the year. The greatest difference between the old and the new style will be a reduction in the size, the new being but one third as large as the old. The advice will be placed on the end in order that it may be torn away easily, the order will be endorsed on the back; it will not be signed by the postmaster, but will be sent to the auditor. Instead of the seal the monogram U. S. will be used, and the figures will be placed on the back to correspond to those on the face. The new form is very con venient, and will be a great improvement on the old. TIihi Tired Feeling Is it common complaint anil it is a dangerous symptom. It means that the system is debilitated because of impure blood, and in this condition it is especially liable to attacks of disease. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the remedy for this condition. and also tor that weakness which prevails at the change of season, climate or life. Hood’s Pills act easily, yet promptly and • dicionily, on the bowels and liver. ‘23c. A full line of paints, oils and brushes at Riley's, 713 south Main street. 21ft<!

BUILDING AND LOAN. What m to be Some Good Lokh from Bloomington, The most emporlnnt question be fore the people of Indiana, the ones who pav in money into building as sociations, is whether or not their earnings shall be taxed. Mr. W P. Rogers, of Rloomington, writes as follows to the Rloomington Tele phone: Now, what certificate holders who are niltnIs'red by the tens of thousands in Indiana, want to know—what tax assessors and hoards of review and buildi ig associations themselves want to know is,—shall all except borrowed siock i .i building associations be taxed V The above quoted language seems to indicate that our supreme court would so h >ld if the question bad been before it tor decision. But would not siich a decision lead to double if not much more than double taxation ? Suppose an association on the first day of April had 0 t hands $26,000. This must he given in by the association for taxation. This $25.000of course has been collected from its shareholders on stock issued by it. paid in in <mull amounts from time to time. According to the theory advanced the shareholders must also “be taxed for the true cash value of his stock, which will in general he the amount paid by him on the stock.” This would clearly he double taxation on this $25,000 in a way which is prohibited by our constitution. But on the other hand, the $25,000 can not escape being taxed once, even though the plain letter of the above quoted statute were followed out. It must be in the hands of some one on April 1st, even if it has passed out of the association’s hands, and wherever It is will be taxed once. The statute was evidently meant by the legislature to so favor building associations, as n> subject its property to taxation hut once. The legislature might not have had the power to so discriminate in favor of these associations as this act seems to have intended, hut surely it it id not the power to make a law which will require a shareholder therein to pay double taxes by reason of being a member of such an organization. And the law which was meant to he a relief, should not he construed to be a burden upon the shareholder. This was a special act for the benefit of building associations proposing to tax them in a manner diftVrent from other corporations. If it is not permitted to stand as a law favorable to these associations it would better he swept entirely away, and let building associations he taxed like other corporations uithin the state—on the property owned by ihe corporations iheus'lves. To tax shareholders on stock is against the s ltled policy of the laws of our state. The corporation is a being created to do business and own property, and whatever taxes are to he paid should he by the corporation itself. If I as a shareholder, pay into a building association £5<M) as part of the capital on which it shall do business, why should 1 he taxed on this any more than if a* a shareholder. I had paid this $500 otto a stone company as part of the capital ? In either case the money is no longer mine but belongs to the corporation. Because of the benefleient irtluences of these associations in building up our towns, aiding all classes in securing homes, in caring for the weekly savings of the poor, teaching economy in the most practical way, our legislatures have sought to encourage them by liberal tax laws. Our courts should he slow in thwarting the purpose of these laws, anil our assessors and boards of review should surely not run beyond the courts in matters of ibis kind. The Summer School, . Frank Takasugi will start on a lecture tour in a few days. Seyernl students are takjng the teacher’s examination today. Prof. Stephenson has returned and taken charge of his classes.. The history and biology - classes had quizzes today. Miss Scarce will visit at her home in Danville for a few days. Students are very indignant because there will be no holiday July 4th. It seems to us that patriotism ought to be inculcated and encouraged in our universities, es peciaily during the warm weather, when the student, owing to numerous attractions, is so liable to forget Ins country.
