REDUCTION OFTANATIoN.

Many have been the comments on the
possible surplus III the national treasury
this year, and the proposed reduction,
therefore, in taxes. These latter are not
such as could be anticipated, as we have be-
| fore pointed out, but something has been
done, though on a very small scale. The
first thing congress should have done
was to reduce taxes prOportion4tely with
the surplus of revenue, but they have
failed. We should not be averse to small
laVors however, if large ones are not freely
given. In one Sense the reduction of tax
alton is very fortunate, as a heavy burden
Is relieved from some very useful articles,
even If the latter are limited in number.
The NcS York Herald on the subject
has the following to say: apparently
some slight good will come to the people
from the reductions to be made in the in
ternal revenue taxation. The statement
gwen in an article on this subject, printed
elsewhere, to the effect that the pockets Of
CONSUMERS will not be relieved by the re,
ductions is too broad. 1t is true that the
Larger number of the reductions will leave
the price of commodities the same
to the people, and will thus
make manufacturers the richer by
the amount of the tax. Probably this
is true rs to the taxation of tobacco, the tax
on toilet preparations and on proprietary
medicines. The tax on bank checks is ccr-
tainly not one OF which the abolition will
greatly help the banks, since it is the Gus
toner who always pays it. But the most
striking help to the people OF all these little
helps is the abolition of the tax on matches.
The tax system concentrated this in
dustry in a few rich houses, and the aboli-
ton makes il free once more and
the price will fall to the ancient rates"
The matter is not one of great moment, but
anything calculated TO lesson the burdens
upon the people is of signal significance,
and whether it be on jcwelry or perfdmery
or matches, the result is the same-priccs
fall somewhere and the masses are cores
pondingly benefited. The reduction is
not such as was desired, but any
step in the direction indicated is
of importance as it is the mani.
tcstation of u spirit to reduce
taxation, which carries with 1t some con.
ISOLATION, indeed, to the oNcrworked and
suffering masses. On all necesSarcs the
tax should have been reduced, but twenty
millions less in cash TO pay Tor articles
needed is better than nothing. We trust
that the start thus made on matches.
pcrlumcry land tobacco will be
of suggestive force sufficient to
secure next term greater and more needed
reforms, and when the taxes are conscien.
tiously Knocked oil in proportion to the
surplus of revenue and always upon the
articles greatest in use, we can then and
not till then be assured that there is dis.
position in our w-makcrs to remember
the people and their burdens.

Is n Mans Name His Own Property ?

We give elsewhere n report of the ordi-
nary general meeting of Liebig's Extract of
Meat Company Limited, one of the most
successful companies in London, and we
think We can undoubtedly say the most
successful undertaking of the kind any
where. The sale of the famous extract with
which the company's name is associated, is
worldwide, and is considerably increasing.
This increased sale is due chiefly to its own
merits, and to its unreasonable SUPERIOR
ity over all other preparations, the chair
man stating, rs far as he knew, the comma
ny never had single complaint. Seeing
the great success of Liebig's extract, It is
not at all surprising that limitations have for
long time been in the market; but il is

Mr.. David Robinson brought to town last
Saturday small stone, resembling glass in
some degree, and yet having more of the
appearance of diamond lie said he
powed it up in one of his fields, and so
bright was the sparkle that he was
struck with 1t as it lay embedded
in the ground. The quartz is about
two and a half inches long and about
q quarter in diameter One end has a peb-
bly, look, while the other has the genuine
diamond shape. 1t cuts glass equal to the
finest diamonds and Mr.. Robinson SAYS
that at night it is so brilliant when reflect.
ing that held in the dark, the whole hand
IS made visible from its brightness. What
IL is we cannot say. He was offered SO for
it by some gentleman in town, but having
some fait h in its purity, Mr.. Robinson pre-.
terred to have it analysed Should it prove
to be a real dilmond, Mr.. Robinson will
get at least $4,000 or 100000 for it.-[New

How He Struck II bonanza

We had been roughing it around for q
couple of months when we lound ourselves
one evening camped outside OF Monterey.
Our finances were very low. There WIS
only few dollars in the whole crowd, and
we felt rather blue. We had been for sew.
eral days discussing what was best to be
done. We knew little of the language of
the country there was no work that suited
us, or that we were capable of doing, and
stages in that part of the country wouldn't
pay the wear and tear of robbing them,
We are sitting around the campfire IN n
very Respondent frame of mind when Nc
lnnis came in from town. Hello, bows, -
he shouted, I've found it-struck bo-
nanza. We are well tlxed cheer up. We
are all right now and don't you forget il -
What is it?' we asked.
you never mind, - he replied "iust YOU
follow me and III show you"
We filed after him into town. He led us
through the main street, across the plaza,
and down into the poorest part of the town,
Stopping in front of a small adobe store, he
marched us all in. MClnnis stood looking
from one to the other as waiting for an.
plausc.
We could see no sign of the bonanza, and
IN GLORIOUS we impatiently demanded that
he should explain.
How much money have we in the
crowd?' inquired Mclnnis.
Seven dollars and fifty cents all told, ="
replied our treasurer.
We'll, didn't say We We're all rich?"
Yes, but we can't see how we can be
rich ON on seven dollars and fifty cents.n
you can't, eh2' said Mclnnis. Cant
you read?' and he pointed proudly to a
card hanging above the counter, on which
was printed the legend.

But the old man blushed aud moved off

that kind of a retiring child OF nature, and
she looked up at the old blunderbuss with

PAIN FROM SEVERED LIMBS.
Persons Who Claimed to suffer from Posi-
lions of Buried Members


The feet of Josiah West, who met with
that terrible accident on the railroad few
days ago, were yesterday taken by his wife
to Fremont, New Hampshire, for burial.
When the unfortunate man regained con-
sciousness at the hospital the morning fol-
lowing the loss of his limbs he complained
that his toes panied him great deal, that
they seemed badly cramped, and he re-
quested that some one move them for him,
at that tiufe the feet were tied in bag
and the hospital people did not know
where they were to be found. 1t seems
simply incredible that the position or con-
dition of severed member of a persons
body should affect in the least the sensibili
ties of the owner; but suffice it to say that
the undertaken with whom the writer con-
verscd ailirms that he personally knows of
numerous cases where persons who have
lost limb declared they felt pain from an
awkward position which the member was
in.
He cited an instance of a man who lost an
arm in this city last fall. After being am
putated, it was sent to the undertaker's for
burial. 1t was placed in box the back of
the hand being down, remaining in this
IhnillOll lDI StNtIul HUNTS. l he owner oil
the severed member during that
time, experienced severe pain in
the arm, which grew SO unbeara1le that ut
last he asked a friend to 20 to the under
taker S and see about the limb. This was
at 5.45 in the afternoon. The friend was busy
and did not start off for half an hour, and
during that time the pain had ceased and the
wounded man said he need not go He
went, however, and found that the under.
taker had Just finished uarins iJr the arm,
that it had been placed in an easy and nat
ural position in the box. The time when
the arm was changed from the awkward
position to the latter conceded exactly with
the time when the owner had felt the pain
leave him. When the friend reported to
the unfortunate man, he (the latter said
he knew just how the arm was placed that
he could feel its position and correctly de.
sCribed the same
Another case cited by the undertaken was
about a man who lost an arm above the ell.
bow. The member was given to the under
takcr and buried. The man subsequently
went to Lawrence to live. About a year af.
ter the accident he paid the undertaken a
visit and told him that his arm for long
time had panied him great deal, that
the fingers seemed cramped and that he
wanted to see the buried member. Ac-
Cordingly it was dug up and examined and.
strange to say, found to have the fingers
tightly turned up towards the palm, as the
man had said they felt to him. The fingers
were Strengthened and the arm consigned
again to the ground and no more trouble
was experienced from it, Manchester
