handlers of the rod, have never partici-

lowing notes taken from the official pro-
gramme of the Chicago tournament in
reference to rules and regulations, etc,
will prove instructive, and interesting to
those who are interested in the sport.

been positively ascertaIped that the error
does not belong 10 Mr.. Blocks admins

appear on the cashbooks of either his or
Mr.. O'Brien's management. The error is
regarded simply as clerical, but so far as
the cash account is concerned there are
vouchers in the Tax Collectors safe for
every dollar paid in taxes. Mr.. Block
would not have the books exported, and
that Is why the Supervisors are making an
investigation, which they expect will show
