County Assessor Leonard lias been attending the annual meeting of the state tax board and county assessors at Indianapolis this week.

Saturday, There has been some excitement in the Twin Lake neighbornood this week on account of the belief that the

Himes family residing there have the small pox. A French scientist announces that he is able to photograph nerve action. Wonder if he got a picture of Colom

bia sending an army to whip the United States, Herschell P. Berlin, who was badly hurt by the accidental discharge of a shot gun while hunting near Rutland ten days ago, was ab!e to be taicen to his home near Lapaz Tuesday.

No one could wait on him better. Earl North w ho is a student of the McCormick Theological school at Chicago and Miss Margurite Hume who attends Oberlin -college at Obcrlin, Ohio, reside in the same Mock in South Plymouth and buth returned to their respective schools Tuesday. The worst disaster of the year 1904 thus far is the burning of the Iowa state capltol building which on Monday was damaged by tire to the extent of $500,000. It was a fire-procf structure and the origin of the llames seems to be a matter of extreme mystery. Mr. and Mrs. William Hooker have returned to their home at Barron, Wisconsin, after a visit of four weeks In this county. Mr. Hooker went to Wisconsin from Green township thirty-one years ago and this was bis first visit in this county since that time. i Joseph PChrod, of North township, was badly hurt Tuesday whl'e helping Hugh Logan boom a load of hay4.

The retiring county officers set up cigars and apples to everybody around the court house at 2 o'clock Monday afternoou. The retiring officers were good officials, if they are democrats. Everything in grain speculation is now subordinate to war prospects. A war between Russia and Japan would materially advance the price of wheat and make provisions of all kinds higher. . Ford Reynolds and Fred C. Martindale have returned to their respective dejtal schools. Fred attends the In diana Dental school at Indianapolis and Ford attend the Northwestern at Chicago, Oren F. noover, retiring worthy master of Kilwinning Lodge,' F. A. M., this city, was presented with an elegant jewel at the last meeting in appreciation of his efficient services as an officer and a Mason. Mrs. Belinda Ritchey fell on the walk at her home Friday evening and broke the radial bone of the left arm between the wrist and the eibow. Dr. Brown reduced the fracture and she is getting along nicely. The Indianapolis Sentinel says. exCongressman Lemuel W. Royse, of Warsaw, will be named by Goyernor Durbin as judge of the Kosciusko circuit court, to succeed Judge Hiram S. Biggs, who, for several months past, has been of unsound mind. With the closing of thirty-six play

houses in Chicago until they comply with the building code, the knell also started to ring for more than 300 lesser halls, In which assemblages are threatened with calamity each time the doors are thrown open. The Chicago tragedy has had at hast one good effect: Every city of any importance is investigating its theaters and issuing orders that they are to be made safer. Sometimes it seems as if a catastrophe were necessary to impress the proper degree of caution. The work on the oil well at Knox was suspended until after holidays. About five more days drilling wilj reach Trenton rock. The company this time have made all preparations to case off the salt water if necessary, and are going until oil is found, should it require a depth of 2.000 feet. The commissioners met Monday and organized by electing Henry Snyder chairman and William Troup secretary, home routine work was done and licenses to sell liquors were granted to Frank Waluaer, Bourbon, and John C. Kuhn, Plymouth. S. N. Steyens was rs-elected city attorney. In the case of the State of Indiana vs Freeman Keiser for violation of the school law which was set fur trial Wednesday the court today on motion made by the defendant's attorney, L. M. Lauer quashed the affidavit and information and the state prayed an appeal to the appellate couit. Three generations were present at a family reunion held at the home of

Fred Seidei in West township New

Year's' day. Fred served two terms

as cpmmissioner of Marshall county and is a man well preserved in both body and mind. A delightful day was spent by parents, children and grandchildren. Rev. J. E. Hartman preached his farewell sermon at the Reformed church Sunday evening and left for hts new field of labor at Scott, Ohio, to-dav. He has been In Plymouth almost five years, and has been one

of the ablest ministers of. the city. The church here will probably not select his successor until March or April. An investigation of the accounts of ex-county officers shows that some of them will receive much largsr sums by the decesion of the supreme court than was at first supposed. J. E. Marshall will probably get almost $2,000 and D.C.Smith will be entitled to several hundred dollars. Henry Jarrell also comes In for quite a nice sum, Mrs. Lower, is prostrated over the sending of her son to the penitentiary and is seriously ill. She is 72 years old and has the sympathy of the entire community, for it is no fault of hers that "Tody" did not do better in the position which he was placed where he had an opportunity to make a good living, a good name for timself and assist his mother. Efforts will be put forth to make the Maxinkuckee assembly, annually held at Lake Maxinkuckee, the national Chautauqua of the Christian churches of this country. At a recent meeting of the directors arrangements were made to purchase the assembly grounds which heretofore have been leased. The directors contemplate the improvement of the grounds and the extension of assembly work. That dlptberia may live in packed

clothing almost Indefinitely is shown by an incident which occurred in an Ohio village. A child died of diptheria and its mother packed, its dresses and, toys In" a chest. Thes mother died fifteen years afterward and her daughter and grand-daughter, who opened and bandied the contents of the chest, were duly taken ill of dlptberia, although there had recently bcon no cases in the vilbe .

. The first installment of Taxes (including Road Tax) must be paid on or before the First Monday in May, or the taxes for the whole year will become delinquent and subiect to 1 per cent, penalty. The Second Installment must be paid on or

before the first Monday in November following. But any taxpayer may pay the full amount of such taxes on or before t je

nrst Monday in May, iyi4. Assignees, Guardians, Administrators, and others who pay taxes on property in trust, and persons whose taxes are

complicated, such as undivided estates, etc., are earnestly requested to settle such taxes before the last few days, as it re- ; ?j a! A - 1 .1 j . ri 11 e m it . m f ji. t

If they have land in more than one township or town, or desire to paj- taxes, on lands not in their names, call the Treasurer's attention to the matter. Road Receipts will not be received after the First Monday in May, except on Delinquent Taxes. Carefully examine the receipts before leaving the office, and if anything is wrong have the correction made at once. The Treasurer will not be responsible for the penalty and charges on delinquent taxes resulting from any omission of the person failing to state definitely on what property, in whose name, and in what township or corporation it is assessed. Persons owing delinquent taxes should pay them at once. The present law is of such a character that there is no option left the Treasurer but to enforce the collection of delinquent taxes bv the sale of property, if necessary.

"The owner of property on the first day of April in any year shall be liable for the taxes of that year; the purchaser of propertj on the first day of April in any year shall be considered the owner on that dav. Section. 103. - Call on the Auditor for irregularities in taxes or for reductions to be made. The Treasurer cannot make such reductions. Taxpayers will find it greatly to their advantage to call at the Treasurer's office and get a memorandum of the amount due from them tor taxes. County orders cannot be paid to parties owing delinquent taxes. All persons are warned against buying them. The Annual Sale of Delinquent Lands and Lots will take place the Second Monday In February, 1904. I would especiallj- urge upon taxpayers the importance of paying early and avoiding the rush of the last few days.
