DAY AFTER MUCH DEBATE.
Albany, April (speclaD.-senator Erwin offered
amendments to his taxation listing bill to-day to make
it less Objectionable, II possible, TO his fellow members
of the Senate. These amendments provide that the
lists of every taxpayer shall contain the aggregate
amount OF his personal property and not give it in
detail.
In support of this modified bill Senator Erwin said
that the measure had been much misunderstood. 1t
was not taxation BILL strictly speaking, 1t merely
would give the tax assessors information about prop
erty in view of the tax assessors, and thus it would
relieve and diminish taxation real estate
Senator Cantor moved that the bill should be killed
expressing the opinion that 1t would be harmful in the
highest degree to the industries of the State

Erwin land ordered to third reading 1t is meas

said that he always desired to be courteous to Senator
Erwin but he could not grant him great favor
to consent to the bill going to third reading The

had harmed business.
Senator Brown denounced the bill as an Ubiquitous

An Old English Tavern Keeper.

To the dramatist Farquhar we owe the
popular conception OF a rotund, rubiound
landlord-a Boniface, as small wits still
call the tavern keeper. In his lively COM
edy of "The Beau's Stratagem," Boniface
is landlord of the inn at Lichfield, where
much of the action of the piece takes place.
His dialogue with Aimwell is brisk and
lively.
81 have heard" says Aimwell, "your
town of Lichfield much famed for ale; I
think I'll taste that"
Sir" says Boniface, 81 have now in my
cellar ten tun of the best ale in Stafford
shire; tits smooth as oil, sweet as nilk,
clear as amber and strong as brandy, and
will be just fourteen years old on the 9Th
day of next March, old STYLE"
You're very exact" rejoins Aimwell,
Gin the age of your ales."

my children. Pll show you such ale. Here,

Sir, you shall taste my ammo domini. Ihave

eight-and-fifty years, and, believe, have
not consumed eight-and-ffty ounces of
meat"
"At a meal, you mean, if one may guess
your sum by your bulk"
"Not in my life, sir; have fed freely
upon ale," retorts the jolly host. 81 have

slept upon my ale" All the Year Round
