THE VICTIM or \ MIsTAKE.-H. P. Black
was charged with collecting a s. poll-taX Of
Chinaman near Alder Creek, he having no
authority to do go, and on information lodged
warrant was sworn out for Blacks arrest
en- the strength Of a receipt produced by the
Chinaman and signed "H. p Black. order
of Houston" Constable Medley went out
and made the arrest. Blacks statement,
which seems To be correct, is that he cannot
read or write The Deputy Assessor in his
section seized the clothing Of the Chlnaman
fer the tax, aud gave them to Black to hold.
Black kept them until the Chinaman, at a
subsequent date, returned and paid the 81,
when Blacks wife gave the Chinaman the
receipt. Subsequently, the Deputy Assess /
called and got the money. 1t would appear
that Black is the victim of loose way OF do
ing business on the part Of the Deputy As
SCISSOR, whom he sought to accommodate.
