Benson Lossing, the historian, says of
the author and the book: "Her book Is
genial and not so keenly satlracal like
Cervantes, who set all Europe a-laugblng
the tomfooIeries Of chivalry out OF exis-
tence; like Holmes, who by patriotic
little poem saved the frigate Constitu
ton from destruction; like Whittier,
who dismissed from our statute books
barbarous law by the burning words of
his "PrIsoner OF Dett;" like Mrs. Stowe
who pierced the heart Of the institution
OF slavery by her pen. Miss Holley's
books are doing in quiet way great
work for the promotion of needed social
reforms. Iknow Of no volume more
healthful for perusalby the old and the
young, the learned and tie unlearned." )"

CHICAGO, Dec. O.-Prendergast, tke
murderer of Carter H. Harrison, will be
hanged for his. crime. Ably defended as
the assassin has been, strong as has
been the evidence adduced to save his
neck from the halter, the jury has found
him sane. responsible for his act and
demanded that he pay the highest price
for his offense against the law.
When Clerk Fitzgerald arose to read
the finding of the jury, the prisoner stood
clutching the back of a chair, cycling him
with the most intense eagerness. His
long fingers nervously clasped the chair,
his knees trembled violently, his face was
flushed and his spiteful-looking mouth
opened and closed as though he would
say something, but lacked the power to
speak.

F1tzgerald's voice, clear and calm,
read out the finding, and died away
with slight emphasis on the final word.
Then Prendergast revealed himself the
utter coward. His face turned pale, he
opened his mouth to speak, but only
faint murmer came from his hot and
quivering lips. He moved slightly and
would have fallen to the floor but for the

Eren a Tar on Death.

In the history of taxation there is moth
ing more curious than the impOsts to be
found in the laws of the early days Of
Holland. The most curious tax of all
was one imposed in 1914 on boots and
shoes, says the Shoe and Leather Rerier.
In order to prevent the impost from being
evaded. each of those articles so essential
to human comfort had to be conspicuous
" marked on the upper leather With the
stamp of the maker, and also that Of the
taxing officer. The sum to be paid was
regulated by the size of the boot or shoe.
So apart from the question of beauty, in
those days it was real advantage to
have a small foot. In 1865 tax was
imposed on all passengers travelling IN
Holland by land or water. In l79l this
tax was still in force. In 1914 a duty
of five cents was levied upon each person
who entered tavern before noon. The
tax was increased for afternoon visits
Persons who assembled in private house
after 8 o'clock in the afternoon for the
purpose of amusing themselves had each
to pay a certain sum, and those who en-
tered a place of public entertainment were
likewise taxed. There was duty on
marriages and deaths. The amount OF
the tax varied according to the social Po-
sitiou of the parties while in the case OF
person buried outside Of the district in
which he had lived, the amount payable
by his executor was doubled.
