A CUSTOM OF OLDEN TIMES.
Charles lis Neat Retort to Quaker f,
When to Wear Hats

Charles lis Neat Retort to Quaker Fox
when to Wear Hats.
To remove the hat in the presence Of a
sovereign SAYS a wri ter IN the Philadel-
sphia Ledger, is an old mark of respect.
Many are familiar with the story of the
interview between Fox. the Quaker, aud
Charles II. The king. upon observing
that Fox kept his hat on, promptly re-
moved his own. "Put on thy hat, friend
GEORGE was the neat retort of the king
ut is usual for only one man TO we II his
hat heren
The head of the De Courcys, Earls OF
Lonsale, is the only British nobleman
submitted to wear his hat in the presence
of his sovereign. Out of sincere defer
ence the De Courcys wore their hat but
moment, Ia assertion OF their privilege:
and then promptly doffed them One of
the Earls at a reception given by George
H., kent his hat ON for considerable
time. At last the King became vexed,
aud huniliated him by saying: 'The gen.
tleman has right to be covered before
me, but even King John could give him
noright to be covered before lsdies."
William Ill illustrated his royal obstf-
macy by refusing to remove his ponderous
beaver when at church. much to the in
dlgnation of his worshippers. Their
Indignation did not worry him any. The
Dutch wore their hats during divine SER
vice. and ne mad not ceased to be Hol-
lander simply for having become King
OF England. The last sovereign OF tue
Tudor race. together with his courtiers,
wore very high hats, which became the
steeple hat Of the Puritans in the middle
of the seventeenth century. The old
wood cuts of the trial OF Charles |. repre-
sent the members of Parliament In broad-
brimmed steeple hats.

COUNTY TAX BOARD WINS.
The Clark Thread and Other Har-
rison Companies Will Have
10 Pay.
Special 10 The Jersey city Ne,os.


TRENTON. May %, 1893-An ORDER was
filed in the Supreme Court Clerks office
this morning By Justice Van Syckel,
confirming the report Of Washington b.
Williams in the appeal of the Clark Thread
Company, the CLARK Mile End Spool Cot
ton Company, the Marshall Thread Com
pany and the Nairn Linoleum Company,
from the valuation placed upon their
property by the Hudson County Board
Tor the Equalization OF Taxes. In
1892 there was conflict between the
board and the Assessor OF Kearny. He
returned the value of the several
companies properties at what the
board considered ridiculously low
figures. The assessor admitted to
properties much below their real value
because he wished to encourage manu-
facturers TO locate in his township. The
board then increased the valuations, and
the companies. after paying taxes on the
valuations assessed by the tax assessor.
Look the matter into the Supreme
Court on certiorari. The Court referred
the matter to Washington B. Williams,
OF Jersey City, who finds that there is
still due the county from the Clark
Thread Company $500: from the Clark
Mile End Spool Cotton Company, So, ga :
33; from the Marshall Thread Company,
sl,9620 06; from the Nairn Linoleum Co..
81. S5, making a total of $l2. 1913. ID.
which the county will receive in
addition to the sum already
paid by the companies. The county is
ordered to pay $160 to the commissioner,
and the county is also ordered to pay
three-fourths of the companies COSTS and
the township one fourth.
