after which the meeting was closed

The all absorbing topic of converse

the poll-tax. There was some very
vigorous and universal kicking when

Jones. He declined to pay the fine
and costs and was remanded to Jail.
On Tuesday he brought action on a
writ of haJeas corpus before Judge
Stillwell. After hearing elaborate ar
guments the Judge held that the city
had no power to collect the tax by fine
or imprisonment, but could only pro-
coed in the usual method for collecting
taxes. This decision, of course. re-
leased Mr.. Jones, and, although it
does not declare the tax uncOnstitu-
tional, it is hardly probable that an-
other attempt will be made to collect
it, as most of those for whom it was
intended cannot be reached by civil
process. Now that the matter il settled
it is hoped that the hard feeling which
it has engendered in a few instances
will be allowed to subside. In almost

The meeting ofthe Presbyterial Mis-
sionary Association which was held
here Tuesday and Wednesday was
we'll attended and good deal Of work
was done.
The public meeting Tuesday even
ing was a very interesting one. 1t
was opened with devotional exercises
and singing, after which Miss Ella
Cowan extended a welcome to the Wis.,
iting members of the association In a
few well chosen remarks. This adj
dress was happily responded to on the
part Of the visitors by Mrs. Chamber
lain, of Humboldt. An interesting
and well written paper entitled, THE
True Reason Why Every Christian
Woman should be Missionary" was
read by Mrs. Wilmington, of Hum
boldt. After this came some exercises
by class of children under the direc-
ton of Miss Cowan, which were at
listened to. Probably the
most interesting part Of the pro-
gramme were the talks by Misses
Crowell and Leonard, who related in a
happy manner some Of their expert |
ences rs missionaries among the Nor
mons of Utah. The exercises were |
with music by the choir,
and the audience were also entertained |
with solo by Mrs. Higginson, of
