No More ExtenslOn.-In the Circuit
Court for Charles county: Ordered by
the court this 3lst day Of May, 1889, that
hereafter the court Wi! not extend the time
FOR the collection of taxes, TO the collectors of
such taxes, anleis for special reasons shown
the court, aud which will satisfy the court
that the collectors have used all reasonable
diligence in collecting the same.
F. STONE, CT.
., The above. order wae passed aaa order ca b.
be published by his Honor Judge Stone on
Friday last. 1t has heretofore been the Gus
tom of the court to extend the time Of the col
lectors in which to make collection Of taxes
from year to year. But the court, we under
stand by the above order, is impressed with
the belief that no good results follow such ex-
tension, either to the taxpayer, or collector;
as the one is frequently embarrassed because
of the continued drain made on him by the
commissioners and others having orders on
him, and the taxpayer is frequently compel
led to pay taxes several years in arrears which
is allowed to accumulate by the leniency Of
collectors who wish to make their Office
stepping stone for still better oDe.-
When the people understand and fully real
ize that the collectors are compelled to make
their collection within limited time we be-
Iieve they will be more prompt in their pay
ments, end there will be fewer defaulting tax
collectors, which the above order was passed

Schools to Ciose.-The School Commits
s'oners met on Tuesday last and transacted
general business. One order was passed
which will cause general regret among teach
ers, and universal JOY among the pupils. 1t
was that the white schools close on June the
l4th This step was found necessary because
OF the exhaustion Of the school fund which has
been more heavily drawn on the past year
than for many years previous by the building
OF new school houses and buying furniture for
them. It is 70 be regretted that it became ne
crssary to close the schools so early, but the
work done ag the Board during the year in
building new houses where so much needed,
aud fitting others will comfortable furniture,
meets the appreciation of the public.

1t was on this veto that the first sign Of
discomfort appeared. A great groan went
up at the Governors remarks on this beau
tiful charity. DIR. Walk said the Governor
was encroaching on the power of the Legis-

and Mr. Fow said 1t looked as though the
Governor was trying to save money in one
place to spend it in some other.
Captain Billingsiey also spoke in defiance
of the Executive veto, and majority was

whole House was required to pass 1t over his

Sire Bros.' Case Reopened by the Western
Association.
CHICAGO, May THE Board of Appeals of
the American Trotting Association began its
annual session this morning at the Sherman
House. The members Of the board present
were President Charles Green, of ST. Louis;
Secretary j. II. Steiner, of Detroit, and Direc-
tors G. L. Benjamin, Saginaw; W. P. Ijams,
Terre Haute, Ind; Edward c. Lewis Ottawa,
ILL., and John Farley, Toledo. o.
The first case heard was that of Judge
Walter S. Hayes and c. A. Williams, of Iowa
who made an appeal to the board for a
reversal OF the decision of the judges of the
Iowa State Association in 1888, in the case of
the horse Axtel which the Judges protested as
trotting out of his class.
E. H. Broadhead and his driver, John Green,
of Milwaukee, who were suspended by the Eau
Claire Association for the non.payment of en-.
tries, made the claim that they made no entries
at the meeting in question, and were therefore
unjustly suspended. The board received evil
dence to that effect. The last case of the meet
ing was that of the well-known horsemen, the
Sire Brothers, the owners of Harry Wilkes and
other horses. They were expelled from the
association for false entries OF Lexington, at
St Louis and Kansas City last fall. They intro
duced new evidence. John HamricK, of Buff

for the same reason, was present and Joined in

WHAT CAN BE DosEa

There has been more excitement and greater
discussion over the subject of quick consump-
tlon, pneumonia and sudden deaths within the
last six months than ever before in the history
of the world. Doctors. chemists, scientists and
all thinking people have been interested in
it. and the fact that more than twothirds of all
deaths arise from throat and lung troubles has
intensified it What to do and what to use
have been the universal questions with all who
have coughs or who have friends who are
coughing. The best thing upon the subject that
we have seen is from the well-known Scientist,
William T. Cutter, State chemist Of Connecti-
cut. He says:
NSome years ago, while residing in Kentucky,
received letter from large number of the
leading physicians of New York, asking from
my long residence in Kentucky. as we'll as my
skill as chemist, If ! would furnish them with
pure article of whiskey for the sick. 1 did as
they requested, and for several years furnished
them with a whiskey as nearly suitable for their
purpose as i could find in Kentucky; but
neither at that time nor during the ~ years
that have elapsed since then have l found
pure article of whiskey seeming to answer in
every respect what they required until chem

edge of the manufacture of whiskey, as con-

many samples of whiskey. wines, ales, etc. and
was Surprised at the analysis of Duffys Pure
Malt Whiskey to find it was absolutely pure, as
never found this to be the case in any other
whiskey had examined. Its advantages to
those suffering from Pulmonic troubles, ner-
vous prostration or mental exhaustion must
necessarily be very great consider that its
absolute purity, as well as scientific mode of
manufacture must commend it to general use
and public favor"
