The Chicago Daily NelcS says: Just
why the author of the story called the
Bread Winners" should want to main
tain his incognito is not plain, but this
is fancy which quite often takes pos
session of story-writers. In this case,
however the effort at secrecy is very
ineffective, it being about as clear that
John Hay is the author as if his name
were attached to every chapter. Mr..
Hay was the private secretary of Presi-
dent Lincoln, and gained certain in
sight into social life which is of service
TO him in this work. Later he married
the daughter of great iron manufac-
turer in Cleveland, and through this
connection has become very familiar
with the details of the iron trade and
the lives Of iron-workers, which he
uses to marked advantage in his story.
Always more or less interested in
politics and thrown in the company Of
public men, here and there, his pictures
of the local politician are strong, if ex-
aggeratcd, and he makes this knowl-
edge count with the rest.

NEW YORK and Brooklyn boys, armed
with brickbats and hickory broom
handles, are to be seen lodging about
the alleys. They are cat and kitten
catchers, and they sell the pelts and
heads to furriers and milliners. The
prices paid for skins from first hands
are 3 cents for common yellow and
black eats, cents for large kittens of
the same variety, and from to 7 cents
for Maltese. Nights and Sundays, ex-
pertS say, are the best times to go out
eating.

Tom THUMBS little widow was ex-

do not understand how it is with one
who has been before the public rs long
as l have. To remain at home after
such an active life, and especially with

a Jackson telegram TO the Chicago Tribune
says: The Democrats have swept the State,
losing only three or four counties which were
contested by Independents. In many coun-
ties there were fCsions between Democrats
and Republicans, all of which were success
full except in Pamela county, which was car
ried by the Chalmers element by some 800
majority. Chalmers is buried beyond politi-
cal resurrection. The estimated political
status of the Legislature is thirty-tive Demo
Gratis and two Republicans in the Senate and
100 Democrats and twenty Republicans and
Independent Democrats in the House, which
includes Fusion Republicans.

william Long, II Petersburg tobaccon.st,

raised his hand TO clear himself and get out,
and a. he did SO some one struck him violent
ly on the right hand, which caused it To strike
Gen. Malone lightly in the face, which he
hopes did the General no serious injury.
Leng Gays he had no intention or desire to do
Gen. Malone personal injury. AS to his

drcl or assassin who struck him, he CI.ong) is

a CoURT-MARTIAL has just convicted

fenced him to be dismissed for marry.
ing a woman with whom he had been
living without marriage. Up to that
point his conduct as an officer and a

GEORGE Q. CANNON told to a reporter
in Wa hington that he feared the Nor
moas would be compelled to give up
polygamy." This remark was intend
ed exclusively for the ears OF the East
ern people. Cannon breaches an en-
tirely different doctrine in Utah, and
most of his addresses there are urgent
appeals to the members of the church
TO take more wives so that they can
have "A higher place in glory" Mr..
Cannon also denies that he is a sandi-
date for the Office of President of the
church. Everybody who knows any
thing about Mormon affairs now is aware
that Cannon is the actual de tacio head
Of the church to-day, and that Taylor
is only an automaton in his hands.

BALTIMORE COuSrY. Feb. -.
Ms..r. Eiifors Prom conversations tia; sew
erai tar payers have had With me On the all.
important subjec, of the condition Of the book.
and accounts Of the County Treasurer. have
come TO the conclusion that it IL deeply interest
ing every citiren. and that before many future
Grand Juries hold their si,iinss the whole ques.
ton Of county fnaEeicring will be thoroughly
ventilated. The subject will be fully considered
by the AZ proaching Grand Jury, and the Invest
CATION Of the Treasurer books and accounts will
be such cannot fail to .ati.fy every fairminisd
man.
More than this - not expected from any Grand
Inquest, but far less has been accorded BY some
of the grand bodies who have hal ihi. very grave
matter in charge. In the communication last
week I referred to the amount u discount allowed
OF a levy within the time 20 which the tax j. sub
jest and 20 the amount o: interest chArgcabie
upon the unpaid taxes. aud said the difference
between these two would be one in favor u, OF
against the levy. These amounts are readily
aseertained. The next important item j. the claim
male BY the Treasurer for a credit on account Of
erroneous Assessments. This usually averages
about $4,000, or nearly one tenth oi the whole
levy. The lsrgeness of this sum will be apparen,
when IL 10 eonsidered that 1t represenis over I've
and a half millions Of the bAsis on which the
assessment IL made. The list % erroneous asses.
ments made out BY the Treasurer should receive
the closest scrutiny by the Grand Jury committee,
be aseertained and reported upon.
Information upon this subject Is what every
honest tar payer desires 90 have, as IL may ma
teriAIly assist In reducing the too heavy burden
Of TAXATION that Is nov seriously expressing
them.
A full report by the Grand Jury for the March
term Of court upon the different lcviss, such a. I
have indicated, will be Of incalcuiable benefit a.
the taxpayers o. the county. When In posses.
ion Of this information they can press upon the
Commissoners the propriety Of being guided by
its light in making the levy 10 May. There i an
important matter In this connection, but. which
In my opinion. Is not embraced in the scope 81
