In submitting my annual report. as re-
ouired by law, I have deemed II proper
that the taxpayers and citizens should be
informed Of the condition OF the town and
its financial standing at the present time.
The finances OF the town are In . healthy
condition. considering the dullness Of bust.
meas the past year. The revenue from the
different branches Of business has consid-
erably decreased. and were IL not for the
curtailment Of the running expenses OF
the town In the beginning Of the year. and
the strictest economy on the part OF the
Town Trustees. the town debt would have
been increased instead Of lessened.
The water works and everything CON
nected with them Is in excellent condi-
ton. The hydrsnts and mains have been
kept in the best working order.
The streets are all In good repair. an d
have been kept 80 with very little expense
| to the town. The sewers are all In good
| order. As the cost OF new sewers and re-
pairs on old ones 10 always very heavy. the
| Board have not done any work upon such
only where there was extreme necessity.
The officers Of the town have BEEN fsith-
ful andensrgstc In the discharge Of their
duties. The police force, though small.
has done much In keeping Of that element
which 10 20 much annoyance 10 every
community. Dangerous and suspicious
characters have had but little opportunity
10 prowl around In q midst. and our
people have much reason to be thankful
that their interests are 90 well guarded BY
such an efficient police force.
The Fire Companies. to whom 10 In.
trusted the safety Of our property from
Are, deserve some notice at this timo /:
Their activity and efficiency At all times
when their services were needed has been
In keeping with their past record. and !
might safely say that no volunteer fire
department on the coast can surpass ours
for promptness and activity.
In conclusion, I will state that I sin.
cerely thank the members Of the Board.
one and all. for the very able In
which they have at all times assisted me
in the management Of town Affairs. That
unity and good will which has existed
among them. together with . strong desire
10 serve the best interests Of the town. has
made my position a. President Of the
Board most agreeable. As . new Board oil
Trustees will soon commence their labors,
I feel 10 my duty 10 call their attention tc
the economy which has been practiced by
the retiring Board Of Trustees, a. the
prospects are that the revenues from taxa
bic property. owing to the extreme dull
ness Of the times will be much less thar
they have been the last year. Very respect
fully. L.. I. Fox.
President Of the Board OF Trustees Of
the Town Of Gold Hill.

Mourning.
New York Times

Visitors to this country are greatly
surprised at the long period during
which people wear mourning and re-
main in seclusion. The custom must
be purely American, for it does not OBJ.
tain elsewhere. In England a widow
or widower may, with perfect propriety,
divest themselves of mourning attire at
the end of twelve months, although, in
most cases, they retain it, in som de-
gree, a while longer. Mourning is worn
for parents for one year, but changed
to lighter mourning after six months,
and the same as regards the mourning
of parents for children. Except in the
case of widows and widowers, it is not
deemed at all obligatory to abstain
from society for more than Six months,
although in the case of parents who
have lost children it would be unusual
to go to large enterta ininents before the
expiration of year. Where parent
has died we'll stricken IN years, and
quite in the ordinary course ofnature, lit
would excite no remark were the chill
dren TO go to quiet dinner-parties after
three months. A two-years' mourning
and seclusion would, in such case, be
deemed affectation. Mourning is here
carried to such lengths that some peo-
pie really pass a large part of their lives
in weeping and seclusion, the death of a
father, mother, and sister or brother
making an aggregate of five years. 1t
is question whether we are not carry
ing the thing too far. Life was surely not
made TO be spent in permanent seclu-
sion on account OF bereavement, more
especially for those who, in the ordinary
course of nature, must predecease us.
Thousands of persons would gladly cut
short their mourning but for the tyran-
ny of fashion, which arbitrarily rules in
this as in so much besides.
