a CLINCH OVER TAXES.
Collector Bisbee Assaulted by ex-
Mayor Bowden.

MD VI bOWu0n.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, July 13.-Excite-
ment and interest was aroused this morning
by the details of an assault upon City Tax
Collector w. A. Bisbee last night by ex-
Mayor j. 4. T. Bowden of LaVilla. The
trouble arose over the old back taxes of the
city and some of the suburbs, payment of
which have been refused time and time
again, and which MIR. Bisbee is deter
mined to collect. Some weeks ago Mr. Bsbee
made a levy on Mr.. BJwden's goods. but on
the latter signing written agreement to
pay up at a certain date, so Mr.. Bisbee SAYS,
they were released. As Mr.. Bowden did
not pay the taxes as he agreed to. Mr. Bis
bee wrote him in regard TO the matter. and
as no attention was paid he directed the
marshal to make another levy, and either
bring the goods or the money.
SEIZED HIS GOODS.
Yesterday noon Marshal Sherman went
into Mr.. Bowden's house, and as Mrs. Bow
den refused to pay the amount due, he
called i'll his assistants and they loaded on
wagon All organ, several parlor chairs and
other furniture and carried them to a
warehouse, where they are now stored
awaiting sale. Mr.. Bowden went up to
Mr.. Bisbee's office last evening and
called him out on to the
sidewalk. Hot words ensued, and Mr.. Bow
den struck Mr.. Bisbee, and then scrim-
mage followed. 1t is said that both suf
fered severely, but that Mr.. Bisbee ESCAPED
with the least injury. Public opinion
is on Mr.. Bisbee's side, as he has proved
himself a very energetic officer and his
work in collecting back taxes has received
general appreciation. The end is not yet,
as Mr.. Bowden publishes card in the after
noon paper, denOuncing Mr. Bisbees actions
in strong terms and explaining why he
acted as he did.

two weeks; she seemed to be filled
deep in the chest with phlegm which
we were unable to loosen; she could
notiie down at all, but had to be held
upright else it caused her to cough Sc
serely; the physician did not give
her any relief, although the prescrip-
tons were changed every day and
sometimes twice a day; this treat
ment was continued about ten days
ami we finally determined to try q
bottle of Chamberlain Cough
Remedy. We obtained bottle and
after giving few doses she was re.
lieved, breathing easier and throwing
of the phlegm and getting to sleep,
getting well in few days, and we
believe we owe her life to the use Of
