Our Dover correspondent says the
tax collection in this county is better
than for any previous year, and that
fewer delinquents appear on the books.
So it seems the act for the extension of
time for the collection Of taxes came
too late to benefit very large number
of our people. Yet, it is possible that
in some counties the people are less
fortunate than in ours, and the act will
furnish reliefJo them.

One of the handsomest and most
unique and original ideas in chrome
| lthography is the Columbia Valentine,
just issued by the Pope Manufacturing
Co., OF Boston, Mass. The design,
which is in twelve colors and mounted
/ upon a panel, is a genuine work Of art.
The picture, from a painting by Cope
land, of Boston, is artistically divided
into three scenic sections: the first, a
view of early sunrise, with fine atmos-
pheric effect, represents the wheel
mans morning ride; the centre scene,
appropriately framed by the tire of an
Expert bicyc Gle, is strikingly beauti-
full view of picturesque country, a lady
riding upon tricycle. accompanied by
a mounted bicyclist, crossing rustic
bridge in the foreground; the last scene
isa wheel by moonlight, the bright
rays Of the hub-lights cutting the semi
darkness. Upon the back Of the panel
is a poem descriptive of the picture.
Our efficient Marshal found him
self in close place OH last Saturday
nightin making the arrest of one X. III.
| Hall, who was in a racket with some
i horse drovers and COW traders IN one
of our camp yards. There were five OF
these men, and all rough looking char
acters, and they were in the act of as
saulting Hall, when the marshal inter-
fered to prevent them from using him
up, and it was with difficulty he could
do this even after he had Hall arrested.
Hall had sold these men some cattle
and wagon and team, and had about
$356.50 in his pockets, which these men
knew. When first arrested he claimed
to have been robbed, but being search
ed, the money was found in his pockets
aud counted, and put in DR.. HIPS safe
for safe keeping until next morning
when Hall could sober up as he had
been drinking. 1t was an act Of brave
ry to go into such place to rescue one
from peril, and the marshal is to be
congratulated on his success in work
ing the case through without harm to
himself or any one else.
