Bank Tax Assessors Abolished.

By the 18th section of the general
revenue act which passed the legislature
in the last hours and, we believe, has
become law by the Governors sigma
ture, the Office of bank tax assessor is
abolished. The Auditor General will
hereafter assess bank shares. The pres
ident or cashier of each bank will here
after be required on or before March 1st
of each year, to report under oath to the
Auditor General stating specifically the
amount of capital stock, and the amount
paid in full, a complete list of sharehold-
ers with their residence and their num-
ber and par value of share and local
market value. A duplicate of each
banks report must be filled with county
commissioners. The Auditor General
will then assess the shares by inquiring
into the value of the stock, and either
abate or increase the value of the same
as may be just or proper. In case of
neglect or refusal of any bank officer to
make report as above stated ten per
centum is added to the tax of his bank.
1t is estimated that about $25, 900 will be
annually saved to the State, now that
the office of assessor has been abolished.

Farmer Howe's Death.

OIL CITY, Pa, June "a On the End
inst. the body of Samuel Howe, "a farmer,
aged 72 years, was found lying in field
about ninety rods from his residence,
near Pioneer. 1t was at first supposed
that his horse kicked him to death, but
but the subsequent examination reveal
ed the fact that he had been murdered,
having been shot in the head twice and
then poundered with rail. Heleft three
sons, all in comfortable circumstances,
one of whom lived on the farm with
him. Two weeks elapsed before any eff
fort whatever was made to find the MUIR
derer. Then the three sons, after much
urging, promised to give $25 for his ap-
prehension and conviction. The county
commissioners offered two hundred and
fifty dollars more, and stimulated by the
three hundred dollars, the officers went
to work and circumstantial evidence was
obtained so strong against the young
son, Robinson Howe, that he was arrest
ed and brought to this city. He had q
heahng yesterday and to-day before
Squire Groves, by whom he was held for
trial and locked up in Franklin Jail.

An Unusual Grave Scene.

On the arrival of the funeral process
sion of Mrs. Hull (who was murdered
in New York. at the cemetery ON Fri
day week, the coffin was placed on two
bars laid across the top of the pine box
or outer case. This in turn lay on two
bars placed across the open grave. The
six pall-bearers stood close around for a
few moments, while the mourners came
up and stood looking on at the prepara-
tions. DIR. Hull, with his sister-in-law
on his arm, stood close at the foot of the
grave. Suddenly the earth at the foot of
the grave caved in. One of the cross
bars fell and the end of the box drop
ped to the bottom of the grave. The bar
under the head of the coffin slipped, and
the coffin itself was thrown with dull
crash down into the grave. 1t lay for a
moment at an angle of about forty-fve
degrees, the foot still supported by the
crossbars, and the head on the fallen box
below. Two of the pall-bearers had
fallen partly under the coffin and partly
into the grave. A small monument
over the grave of one. of Mrs. Hull's
nephews was upset by the starting back
of one of the pall-bearers. For an In
slant every one was paralyzed. Several
of the women wept and turned away
their faces. DIR. Hull, husband of the
deceased stood as If rooted to the ground.
The tears rolled from his eyes, and as he
wept lie repeated again and again, "Oh,
dear oh, dear oh, dear!" Apparent
ly he could not stir, and he stood abso-
lutely still while the coffin was lifted up
by dozen quick hands and placed on q
grave near by. 1t was slightly broken,
though it retained its shape and held to-
gether. The seams at the head had
sprung apart about a quarter of an inch
and the lid over the plate was partly
displaced, though fortunately not enough
to disclose view of the rudely shaken
corpse. 1t was replaced at once, and
preparations were again made for lower
ing the coffin to its last resting place,
which was accomplished after delay of
twenty minutes.

Unpleasant Quarters.

A negro living on Mr.. Warren's place,
about four miles from town, was fired
upon Saturday night and notified to
move off. He has complied with the
demand. We are informed a bloody
coffin was found on Penn McRee's gal
lery one morning last week. 'rhe bull
dozers have notified DIR. Applewhite to
leave the county, we are informed. TIE
Doctor declined to obey and stands ready
to welcome those who would escort him
off. We have advised persons guilty of
lawless acts TO desist, as have others of
the county, but they seem to pay no at
tention to the advice. TIL ey will realize
when too late that they have gone too
far in their devilment, and If the courts
and citizens cannot check them, they
need expect nothing more than to have
troops quartered on them by the govern
ment. We again ask them to stop their

A Rat Eats a Mans Toe.

George Hall, the obliging colored
hostler at the Beale House stables,
Wednesday night lay down on his couch
at the stables to sleep, as it is customary
for him to do. He was tired and slept
soundly. In the night rat, suppos-
ed to be a large one, crept up under the
bed covers and began to make square
meal off Georges little toe. The vermin
ate the end of 1t away, and George still
slept. When he awoke this morning he
was surprised to find himself minus the
end of his small toe. 1t is quite painful
now, and Hall is thinking about having
general rat-killing at the stables one of
these days, for if they are getting SO
numerous as that it is dangerous for him
to sleep there. delaware Co., advocate.
