ARMY POST AFTER MOUNTED FIELD GUN Congressman Finly Gray of the sixth district, who will see first service in the ranks at the special session which has been called by President Taft, will as one of his first official duties call upon the war department on request of Sol Meredith Post, G. A. R. and ask the donation of a mounted field cannon, to be placed in the court house yard. The post at its meeting on Thursday evening drafted a letter to the congressman, making this request. If he succeeds as anticipated, he will have done more than ex-congressman W. O. Barnard of New Castle. Cpon a mission of a similar nature the former congressman could only get the promise of seige gun, which while desired would have cost several hundred dollars to mount, it being necessary to mount the piece on heavy masonry. The seige gun shoots a sixtypound charge while the mounted field gun discharges a twelve pound shot. At the time Congressman Barrsd called upopn the war department head j,here were no available field cannons. such as were used in tne civil war, and the kind desired by the post.

PA. RAILROAD TO PAY $42,391 TAX What to many would be a fortune insuring independence the rest of their lives, is paid by the Pennsylvania railroad company in taxes for property which it owns in this county, or which was here in the assessment period of 1910. After working on the assessment statement for the past two days and a half deputy treasurer Thomas Ahl has completed the compilation of the amount due the state, county, and city and incorporated towns in the county through which it runs, finding its total 1910 tax assessment amounts to $42,391.64, of which $23,768.03 is due at the spring taxing paying period and $18,623.61 at the second Installment in the fall. The total amount this year is somewhat larger than before due to the company having a large amount of extra equipment in the county last spring at the assesssing period, in order to carry on its double tracking improvements. The company is the largest tax paying corporation operating in the county. The total value of its property was not compiled in lump, but is over two millions of dollars. The company will not pay all in cold cash, about $1500 of the tax will be worked out as is the corporations privilege.

APPROVE WILL OF JOHN RAKERS Before approving the last will of John Rakers, a well know German resident who died on Febraury 27, leaving his property to his widow, Louise Rakers, it was necessary for Judge Fox to hear testimony that the signature of the decedent was genuine as was also necessary in proving the signature of John M. Zeyan, one of the subscribing witnesses to the will. Both of the witnesses to the will, Mr. Zeyand and Arnold Feldman died before Mr. Rakers. The signature of Mr. Rakers was proven by Mrs. Frank Ayres, a daughter and that of Mr. Zeyan by his son, Leo Zeyan. Hear Abe Martin tell about "Brown County Folks" at ithe Elks Fair next Wednes day night. It is estimated that at a cost of $200,000 fully 160,000 acres of good land within a reasonable distance of Savannah can be drained and made productive of cotton to the annual value of more than $3,000,000.

GOT WRONGLICEIISE Wife Is Forced Upon Man Wishing to Hawk Fish.

Chicago. March 11. It wasn't a marriage license that Philip Fitsman wanted, it was a license to peddle fish. And it was only through the ill-favored jest or si-heiue of a city hall inter preter, he says, that he was married to i Miss Sarah Goldman instead of being invested in the right to hawk fish i about the North Side as he desired. ! Fitsman brought suit in the Superior court to annul the marriage. He says he didn't understand a word of English when it took place and that he really thought he was getting a peddler's license and had no idea that it was his wedding. When he found that he was a benedict, he says, instead of the fish-vender he hoped to be, he fled from the blushing bride whom the jokers had "wished" on him, fled even the city. It is to avoid prosecution on the charge of wife-desertion he says, that he is now seeking to set aside his marriage. Fitsman recites how he came from Russia to the land of opportunity America. His opportunity, he decided, was represented in a lack, so to speak, of fish on the North Side. Hut to peddle fish on the North Side one most have a license. He went to the city hall to get one. He spoke no English. The officials spoke no Russian. An interpretor was necessary. Fitsman employed one. To the untutored eye of Fitsman "marriage" on a sign bore no important difference from "fish." So he was conducted into an office quite the opposite of the one he had sought. The interpretor did all the talking and fhe license was issued. WOMAN SUES FOR DEATH OF HORSE Determined to secure damages from the Ohio Electric railway company for the killing of her horse last fall, Mrs. Kate Cox, a resideik of east of the city, filed suit in the circuit court against the company, asking $150, the trial beginning on Friday before the petit jury. It is probable that the trial will take two days. The complainant has retained Henry U. Johnson, who is assisted by Attorney Gath Freeman. John F. Robbins ia representing the railroad company. Mrs. Cox, after her horse had been killed, wrote the railroad company and asked that the claim agent settle up. She received a letter in reply, the purport of which was, that the company should collect damages from her, as the passengers riding in the interurban care which struck the horse were endangered by the horse getting on a private right of way of the company. This made Mrs. Cox almost furious and she immediately proceeded to obtain balm by legal action. It is averred in the complaint that the cattle guard which is at either end of the private right of way of the company is defective and does not turn live stock. TEXAS IS MECCA FOR U. S. SOLDIERS San Antonio, Tex., Manpb 11. Within the past two days forty seven trains of an average of ten coaches each have arrived in this city bearing almost 20,000 United States soldiers or dered here to participate in the great est military practice ever attempted in any country in times of peace. In addition to the trains bearing men more than twenty trains have arrived carrying army equipments such as horses, field artillery, signal corps appurtnenanc.es, wireless telegraphic mamhines such as are in use in the military department, and everything that would be carried by an army mobilizing for active hostilities. At the same time four of the greatest fighting machines in the American navy are off the. coast of Texas, their great guns frowning landward in a most empathetic way. While the war department is positive in its statements that this mobilization of more than onefourth, of the strength of the regular army in Texas is for the purpose of military maneuvres, the rumor is persistent that Uncle Sam is taking the initial step in Mexican intervention. Mexicans in this city holding official positions under the direction of their government deny most empathetlcally that Mexico is not in a position to take acare of its own affairs. The balance sheet of the Brussells exhibition, which has just been published, shows a deficit of $100,000, caused by the disastrous fire which destroyed a portion of the exhibition.
