LISTEN, JOHN SMiTH; SIX OTHER SMITHS HAVE SAME PREFIX When William Smith goes to the county treasurer's office this fall to i pay his taxes, he will have to give his correct address. This is the only way that he can be identified from the eight other William Smiths who will have to pay taxes. John Smith will have to identify himself in the same way to prevent himself from paying the taxes of five other John Smiths. There are four Harry Smiths on the tax books, two Harvey Smiths, three Joseph Smiths, three Samuel Smiths, three Charles Smiths and two Edward Smiths. Jones is the last name of another class of people who will have to give their addresses when they pay their taxes. Altogether, it has been estimated that there are one-hundred and fifty people on the tax books who have exactly the same names. It is necessary that great care be exercised in getting the right addresses when these people pay.

Labor conditions are considered ideal. There are no strikes, lockouts or trouble whatever. Wages are good and demand is still for skilled men in all lines.
HEAVY LOSSES INFLICTED BY GERMAN RAID
BERLIN, Sept. 25. Zeppelin airships which drove down on the British coast last Saturday,, literally bad to fight their way through salvos of high angle fire to reach their objectives. The admirality in an official statement today admitted the loss of two of the ships and gave details of the fight between air and water craft. The admiralty states that much dammage was done by the raids. The British censor through whose hands the report passed made the following comment upon it: "No anti-aircraft defenses or traces of military importance were damaged. The Berlin account is full of the usual mis-statements." .

JUDGE NIPPERT TO SPEAK HERE ON RELIEF FUND Judge Alfred K. Nippert of Cincinnati, member of the East Prussian Relief Fund of the United States, has consented to deliver a lecture here on the conditions of that part of Germany after the invasion by the Russian army shortly after the outbreak of the war. Judge Nippert was member of the commission that was sent to East Prussia to help administer a fund that had been raised here for relief. He found that 35,000 buildings had been destroyed, 400,000 persons driven from their homesteads, more than 100,000 old men, women and children banished to the Siberian wilderness. After hia return to New York, Judge Nippert gave out a statement in which he denied from first hand observations alleged articles committed on .Belgian villages by Germans and in which he insisted that the Germans had spared works of art and architecture. The East Prussian fund has undertaken to rebuild the town and district of Ragnit, near the Russian border, and two other towns more to the interior of the country, Allenburg and Goldap. Individual donors have given money to rebuild homes that will bear their names; many communities have done likewise, the rebuilt house bearing an inscription telling what city furnished the money. Judge Nippert is an eloquent advocate of the German cause. It is probable that he will speak at St. Andrew's hall. Detailed information regarding the fund can be had by telephoning 2176.
