real estate therein by mees and bounds des-
cribed, and being SO seized and possessed,

as his widow and sole heirs-at-law; that the
defendants, Leroy Martin, KATY H. Martin,

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS

VI. WHERE PERSONAL PROPERTY SHALL BE
TAXED.
Section 81 of Article of the Constitution
provides that "the personal property Of resi-
dents of this State shall be subject to taxa
ton in the county or city where the resi-
dent bona tde resides for the greater part Of
the year for which the tax may or shall be
levied, and not elsewhere except goods and
chattels permanently located, which shall
be taxed in the city or county where they
are SO located"
BY the Act of 1890, Chapter 426, 1t is pro-
posed to amend this section by adding the
following clause "But the General Assem-
bly, may by law provide for the taxation of
mortgages upon property in this State and
the debts secured thereby, in the county or
city where such property is situated"
The reasons for this amendment are found
in the following state of facts: Many years
ago when mortgages were subject to taxation
the Court of Appeals decided that, under
the above quoted clause of the Constitution,
they should be taxed in the city or county
where the mortgage resided. For exam
pie, if resident of Montgomery county held
a mortgage upon property in Baltimore city,
he was taxed in Montgomery county at the
rate of taxation prevailing there.
Our readers may remember, that during
the last session of the Legislature, this sub
ject OF the taxation of mortgages was before
the House OF Delegates, and 1t was dis,ov-
ored, in the course of discussion, that in
some parts of the State very large pppor-
tion of the mortgages were held by resitents
of Baltimore city. Now, nearly alLeSthese
mortgages contain covenant that the mort
gagor shall pay the taxes upon the debt, if
any taxes should be imposed thereon. The
rate of taxation in Baltimore is nearly two
dollars per hundred, and the result of the
taxation Of mortgages, under the existing
condition of the law, would have been to
impose very great burden upon the debtors
so situated
1t was to meet this situation that the
amendment was proposed. We cannot at
this time enter upon the discussion of the
propriety of taxing mortgages, but it would
seem to be only just to so frame the law that
in the event of their taxation fair and
equitable rule should govern its imposition.

Some time ago Royal Frisby, of Peoria,
Illinois, received a notice signed Society of
Justice" and bearing skull and cross
bones, giving him warning that he was to
be killed. On Sunday last his dead DO dy
was found on his farm riddled with shot,
Frisby married Mrs. Carver of Marshall
county, that State. 1t is charged that he
disspated her fortune. After she secured a
divorce he married her daughter. This gave
rise to bitter feeling, which is believed to
have eliminated in his death.

ERRORS OF THEOSOPHY.

Mr.. Smell Says the System Rests ON an Unsub-
sfantial Foundation-A Catholic View of 1t.
The second lecture of the course on theoso-
ply at the Catholic University of America was
delivered Wednesday afternoon, as stated in
The STAR, by Mr.. Merwin-Marie Smell, secre-
tary to Bishop keane. Among other things he
said that although the theosophists claim that
their system is found in the ancient literatures
Of all religions. not single one of the scores of
specialists in oriental literature and compare
tive religion has yet detected such a system in
the Scriptures of Buddhism, Brahmanism,
Mazeeism, Confucianism or Taoism or in those
of Egypt or Mesopotamia. In fact although
theosophy is called by its adherents the ancient
Aryan or even the pre-Aryan ''Wisdom relig-
ion" its most characteristic doctrines are not
only rot to be found in the Yasna Gathas of the
Leno Avesta or the Rig Veda Mantras-the
earliest monuments of Aryan religious thought,
but are distinctly cont-adicted by them. Many
OF them. such as that of metenpsychosis or re-
incarnation. can in fact be proud to be of later
Introduction and from very different source.
Such anachronisms are not surprising, Prof.
Smell said, when reflect that no one whose
name Is publicly associated with the theo-
sophical movement is deeply versed in the
ancient sacred literatures or gives evidence of
being able to read any Of them in the languages
i'll which they were written.
The pretended Esoteric Buddhists of the
occident, he said. are unfamiliar with the only
authoritative oriental exposition of Esoteric
Buddhism, and this in spite of the fact that
they claim to have been instructed by Ma
hatma in Thibet the very country in which
the work is most used and esteemed.
lie went on to discussion of the details Of
theosophical teaching.
Summing up the ground which had been
covered, Prof: Smell said: ''The theosophical
system not only rests on utterly unsuhstantial
foundations, but it denies the existence of God,
the reality of matter. the creation of the
universe, the Immortality of the soul and di-
vine form of duty. 1t teaches the doctrine of
metempsychosis. and holds out to us, on the
authority OF certain anonymous oriental ascot
les. an elaborate and fantastic cosmogony too
daring to admit of either demonstration or
refutat;on, but having numerous counterparts
among the numberless systems elaborated by
the oriental dreamers, every sect of central
and southern Asia having q cosmogony Of its
own.
