As usual, Collector Mckee was at his
office this morning, but Collector Dough-
erty was not. The latter has the rheu-
matism in his right breast and this morn
Ing was reported no better. Consider
able anxiety is being manifested on the
part OF several thousand poll taxpayers
who want to pay their taxes and cannot
get an opportunity OF doing so. Col
lector Mckee aud young Dougherty who
Is IN tho office In the absence OF bis father
receives property taxes in Mr.. Dough-
erty's district, but they viii not receive
poll taxes. This works great hardship
TO the poll taxpayers who can least afford
to spare the time 10 hunt up the col
lectors.
As instances of how II works the fol-
lowing Hrs given: On last Thursday q
week ago four mechanics from the Pull
man car works knocked of half day
TO pay their taxes to Mr.. Dougherty.
They went to the tax Office and found
that Mr.. Dougherty was not in. They
went out and returned. and still he was
not in. Not wishing TO lose more time
they got Charlie Dougherty, the col :
lector's son, to take their names and the
amount OF tax each Of them owed, and
requested that Mr.. Dougherty should
send them their receipts when he came
10 the Office. Mr.. Dougherty returned
the following Monday, but would not ac-
eept the money nor issue the receipts, and
sent the money back to those who gave II.
Another instance 10 that OF John Men
dehhali who leaves this city early every
morning to attended to his duty In hts
fathers office, In the rolling mills at
Newport, and returns late every evening.
Some few weeks ago he sent Mr. Dough-
erty check for ST. 80, the amount oil bis
poll tax, with a two-cent stamp to pay
Tor a return letter with the receipt, Mr..
Mendenhall has not heard from Mr..
Dougherty since. These are samples OF
the annoyances put in the way OF the
poll tax payers.
Mr.. Mckee is an improvement over
Mr.. Dougherty so far only as he is In his
office the most of the time he has ap.
pointed to receive taxes. But those
hours are so unreasonable that poll tax
payers cannot reach even Mr.. Mckee
without losing half day or more, and
even then they are not sure OF finding
him. lie left his office on Saturday
evening soon alter o'clock aud did not
return. After that four men caleb to
pay their taxes but were disappointed.

The woman who stole the Iocketbook
and $S In Mrs. Kirby's miitpefy store, on
Saturday, may have been the same
woman that short time ago tried the
drop dodge on 0 drygoods store. She
wanted q Coat and was sent up stairs with
lady clerk TO select one. She bad
around her neck lady's cravat, in the
front OF which was stuck q pin. 1t was
necessary TO take this of in trying on a
new COAX The lady clerk removed the
pin gently and placsd II upon the coat
which the customer had taken of 10 try
on new one.
Coat after coat was tried but none
seemed TO suit Finally, the customer
got her old coat to depart, bat where was
the pin? 1t was gone. The lady clerk
became confused and looked everywhere
for the pin. The woman assisted In the
search, but |. could not be found. The
proprietor of the store was notified. He,
too, made a thorough search, but could
not find the pin. The customer seemtd
easy and departed, saying that abe would
return in dsy or two, by which time
the pin might turn up. She did return
aud asked II the pin had been found. II
had not, still she seemed no ways excited
nor hnrried but said che thought she
ought to be paid $40 for her pin, but very
graciously promised to call again.
Tho proprietor then consulted gen.
tleman who sometimes does little de-
tective business on his own hook. The
detective told the storekeeper the next
time the woman called to slip out and
call him In. The woman called again,
and presently the detective entered. She
took the cue. Whichever way she
turned she saw the corners OF q pair oil
searching eyes turned upon her.
Her visit was short and she made no
farther demand for the $40. She came
no more. II the proprietor had had her
searched for the pin 1t would no doubt
have heeD found upon her. storekeepers
should keep a sharp lookout Tor such
cnAtOmern.
