A chancery case of more than usual i'm
portance WIS commenced in the Common
Pleas Court on last Saturday. The action
is brought by Albert B. Taylor as executor
of II. Ainsworth, deceased, late OF Lodi, in
this county, and his primary cause is to
restrain County Treasurer Stebel from the
collection of certain taxes that have re-
Gently been placed upon the tax duplicate
by the County Auditor against the Aims
worth estate, for omitted taxes on personal
property that had been returned by the
township assessor for the past FIVE years,
and the property amount averaging about
$4,000 each year. Several very nice
questions of equity are involved in the
proceedings, to BE- judicially found, and it
is quite probable that the case will not
end until it is heard in the court of last
resort in the State. The grounds on which
the executor claims exemption of the pay
ment of taxes on the sums stated is that
Mr.. Ainsworth, in his lifetime, some six
or eight years ago, had made money OBJ
legation amounting to over $4,000 to
Buchtel College, Akron, and assuming
that as bona fide Indebtedness he would
not need to pay taxes thereon. The
amount of the taxes sought to be collected
in this instance is something over $1,000.

WE have often thought that some of our
farmers do not take enough pains in pre-.
pairing their produce for market. Butter
is often poorly made and poorly packed in
rude packages. Eggs, poultry, fruit, and
vegetables are coo cften sent to market in
poor condition where the commission
men are allowed to make prices to suit
themselves. In all cities there is class
OF customers willing to pay good price,
almost any price, if the article is only
good and suits their appetite. If some Of
our farmers would consider themselves in
the place OF the customer it will be much
easier to see the effect of neat, clean ap.
pearance with the product. Very often
prices are kept low and the margin Of
profit very small on this account The
sale of oleomargarine is In measure due
to the large amount Of poor butter placed
upon the market. Sending only good but
ter to market, shipped in the season o
which it is made, (and not bold June but
fer until December end then mix it will
the fall production with little coloring
and put up in neat packages, perhaps un
der your own label, will do much to en-
sure you fair return for your labor. Thi'
holds true to a more or less extent wheth
er you are selling 10 country merchant
TO the consumer in the towns and cities, o.
shipping 70 the commission men. M
mater where the product is to be sold
the better article and the better Its appear
ance, the better price 1t will command
We notice that some Of our more progres
sive farmers are taking more pains in pre-
pairing their produce than in other years
and they inform US that II pays them vel
Tor the extra amount Of labor required.

THE Mormons in Salt Lake have ascer.
tanned for a tact that the mills of Uncle
Sam grind exceedingly fine but sure.
Thirty years they stood in open defiance
of our laws and thought that they were 50
completely isolated that the authorities
could not reach them. They went on,
laid out what has developed into beau
tiiul city, erected one of the finest temples
in this country, and now on account OF
their conduct, the strong arm OF the law
steps in and takes charge of all church
property where its value exceeds fifty
thousand dollars and appoints a receiver
and collects rentals until such time as it Is
ordered sold The government is now on
top and the leaders Of these called church
are now seeking more qpngenial cline
A large tract of land has recently been
purchased by them in old Mexico, and
the probabilities are that they will soon
abandon their church interests in Salt
Lake and emigrate to another desert
territory.

Samuel Showalter, passenger engineer

Wheeling on the 18th by his engine being
thrown from the track, He leaves wife
and nine children. The meeting held
Saturday afternoon at the bank was at
tended by only ten of our citizens The
committee appointed to canvass the county
and secure the names of prominent citi-
zens of the county 10 petition the Legisla-
ture in regard to high level bridge, gave
in their report. W. A.Jewitt, who visited
Eiyria, thought the vote would not carry
that town should the question be submitted
to an election. One of her citizens ex
pressed himself that if the matter were
carried farther he didn't know bet he
would circulate a petition praying the
Legislature not TO pass the required act
for bridge. Walter Bonsor, who visited
Wellington, found the citizens to favor the
move, and only met one man, he said, that
would not sign his petition. Considering
the way the matter stood, and the lack of
interest manifested 10y our citizens moi
turning out, motion was made to drop
the high bridge question and to so notify
the commissioners and 10 have the low
bridge constructed at once. The opinion
is quite general that the county commits
sioners have not favored the high bridge
from the start and from the tone of the
editorials appearing in the Elyria Repub-
lican last week, it is generally inferred
the commissioners were instrGlSental in
its publication. The article does not talk
at all favorable in regard to the matter
and considers the town and railway should
construct same and rot impose a tax upon
the county for the purpose. We venture
to say that were Elyria in our predicamen
high level would have been nearing com
pletion ere this. But, citizens, don't take
the matter too much to heart, as our towr
will certainly far eclipse the selfish inlant
settlement eight miles south OF US in {
few years and that, too, without higl
level.-Times.

A CONFERENCE is reported to have taken
place recently among the brotherhood m
the Locomotive Engineers at Chicago,
who were connected with the G. B. s. O.,
with view OF declaring the strike, enter
ed into February last, off. Sister lodges
have began to feel that the matter of fur
nishing money to pay ten hundred and
sixty.three idle men their wages each
month has become oppressive. The G. B.
SO company have been determined from
the beginning to attend to their own af-
fairs and if the engineers could not afford
to spend their time with them for the wa
ges received, tender their designations like
gentlemen and receive their pay and seek
employment elsewhere. But the brethren
decided to force the company to terms
and the result will be just as it is in all
such cases. A goodly number of good
men ruined in spending their whole time
during the strike in saloons and places Of
resort and when the strike is declared of
all are compelled to seek employment as
best they can.

The Tailor shop OF Godfrled Lshr ON
Grand Avenue Robbed OF About $500
worth OF Goods.
bold burglary was carried out at the
tailor shop of Godfried Lehr. 952 Grand ave-
nue., early yesterday morning. The thieves
gained an entrance through rear window
protected by bars, through which none but .
very small boy could hsve squeezed. They
took oil the clothing they could find, about
$500 worth in oil, and did not molest the un-
made clothes. The store was entered in the
same manner about four years ago and
81 900 worth Of goods was taken. The desk,
which stood in one corner. of the store, was
burst open, but 1t contained no money. By
the tracks and foot prints In the mud under
the windows, 1t is evident that three or four
men participated In the affair. No substan-
tial clue has as yet been found to trace the
burglars. The best one probably which the
police have was found by COURIER man IN
looking over the premises and reported to
Chief Bollmsn. George W. Cooper Of 18l
st. John street, near by, found seven pairs
of the missing pants under the steps to his
front door. These the robbers had not seemed
to fancy and they had thrown them away
rather than be troubled with carrying them

CommIrrEs on ORDINANCES.

An Ablo Argument BY DR.. Dtbble
Against tho Proposed Plumbing Or
dinance.
The committee ON ordinances last night
met in the mayors Office The first matter
brought up was the newly proposed plumb
ing ordinance, which will allow no plumbing
to be done unless under the eyes of an in
spector. This ordinance originated in the
by the Plumbers association.
Last night DIR. Charles F. Dibble argued
for an hour before the committee. He had
it partly written ont, but in the main he
quoted from prominent physicians and from
books, to show that the now ordinance would
be detriment. He embodied in his argu-
ment all that he has written to the city pap
ers in regard to the matter. His principal
statement was that sewers had nothing to do
with bringing on diphtheria, and that any
thing in the ground did not generate that
disease. On the contrary sewer gases were
healthful.
Dr. Phillips also had word to say against
the ordinance.
The committee tabled the matter until
next week, then some action will be taken.
The committee did not receds from Its for
meT 6cLlOu IL MISUNDERSTANDING tuoV u0W SANA-
nance to the effect that no more brick side
| walks be laid, or any old ones be islaid. This
recommendation came up before the common
council and was recommitted. This was
done on the ground that there were parties
who did not favor the ordinance who would
like to be heard. Last night not person
appeared in opposition. A change was made
| in the new Recommendation, that the penalty
for each offense be punishable by ine Of
| not more than $50.
1t was voted to give the petitioners leave
to withdraw in the proposed ordinance that
no person should be allowed to hitch horse
to horse to fire alarm telegraph pole or to
defsce it in amy way. There is already an
ordinance which covers az much of this AS
the committee thought was proper.
Action was defeerrd until next week on
the paper from the street committee recon-
mendipg that an audience be passed doing
| justice to all property owners in regard to
the paving of streets. The citizens in the
center of the city are obliged to pay two
thirds of the expense of a pavement, while
| those persons in front of whose property the
| street is top dressed do not have to pay
cent. This is characterized as an unjust dis
elimination, and thing that should be
remedied.

Damaged $50 worth.
Smoke and fame were seen bursting from
a barn belonging to Peter Hammond on
Kimberly avenue, about half-past 8 O'Clock
last night Alarm 131 was sounded, and
when the FIRE department arrived the struct-
ure was blazing brightly. Two horses, q
good deal of hay and other property were in
the barn at the time. The horses were taken
out without serious injury. The flames were
soon under control and the damage TO the
barn will probably not reach over $50. It
stood about 500 feet from the New Haven
varnish shop. There seems to be no doubt
but that the FIRE was of incendiary origin.

ser Probably Drowned.
The two-masted schooner, Robert Gray,
bound from New London to some Long
Island port, struck a rock about half a mile
outside the new lighthouse early yesterday
morning and sunk in less than ten minutes.
The captain, Rensaeller Lester, was forward
and james Preston, sailor, was at the wheel.
Preston jumped into boat and reached land
after tough tussle with the waves, but
nothing has Is yet been heard from Captain
Lester. The masts of the sunken schooner
are visible above the surface of the water and
the wreck lies in q dangerous position in the
paths of passing vessels. The Robert Gray
and all of her Grew were from New London.
