 The Illinois legislature distinguished itself
 on the last day of it's session by passing a compulsory education bill Children be-
 tween eight and fourteen years must attend school not less than twelve weeks during the year unless excused by the school directors or board of education. If there be no school within two miles of the child's resi- dence, and if children are at private schools or are physically unable to attend, the law gives 8 release. The moderate fine of $5 to $20 is provided for parents who disobey the ordinance. Any taxpayer in district on his single application can cause the school au- thorities to prosecute under the set.
 Those who really pay the taxes in New York, that is, those who can't put their prop erty out of sight, have right to complain of their treatment Personal property was as- sessed in New York to the value of $2, ,1os,- 822, ,924 for the present year. But when de- ductions were made under the swearing of process allowed by law only $195, ,0o0, ,ooo was left on which to levy 8 tax. Although the increase of personality has been more rapid in the last ten years than that of real ty, yet there has been an actual decrease of some $111, ,0o0, 900 in the total assessment of personal property, while in the same time I,aoh haaya oN 100000 in the total assessment on real es tate.
 Much opium has recently been landed at San Francisco and more is on the way. The idea is to get as much of the drug as possi- ble into the United States before July 1st : when the new sarif will take effect Tho duty on opium prepared for smoking, and for other preparations of opium not provided for under the head of aqueous extract and nor phia, is now only $6 pound. After July 1st the duty on the same will be $1O pound. The value of the opium imported last year was less that $l, 300. 900. Many cargoss have been brought to San Francisco within few weeks, however, and it is announced that the ac- cumulations of the drug at that port on July 1ss will be worth $4, ,0oo, 900.

The dispatches from New York
announce that the Custom House
eficers have seized . number OF
trunks belonging to Mrs. Peter
Donahue. wife of the San Francisco
barker. The officers were assured
that the trunks contained nothing

enough to disbslieve the assertion
and opened them. Smuggling is
small business and Pete Donahue,
the broker, il rich enough to pay
the legal duty on his wifs's inery

SUMNER PHASES OF REAL ESTATE.

Monotony is the only feature of the daily phase
of the real estate market. Dealers and brokers
have settled down to the fact of summer duiness.
There is considerable inquiry all the time for prop
critics, improved and unimproved, but the difficulty
Of striking bargains increases as the average rise
of the figures of the thermometer grows higher.

was marked by poor bidding and low prices. Deal
