The Paris left New York on the same daY

night She took her departure from
Sandy Hook fifteen minutes ahead of the
Campania. 1t was expected that a close

hour this morning, and will be scattered

THE man Henry Bentley, now in jail in Los Angeles for the murder
 of his wife, was for years known
 hereabouts as a harmless and half witted fellow with weakness for newspaper puffs, generally secured through small bribes to reporters who were not averse to turning an honest penny at the expense of their employers. He was hostler for Hon. Hiram Stevens for about a year and subsequently Court House gardner. While acting in the lat ter capacity he received a severe drubbing at the hands of Doc.
 White whose boy Bentlv had cuffed. At the time White took the field for blood, Bently was on a step lad der pruning a tree and as a result of his work, a wealth of two handed switches covered the ground. One of these White used with telling af- feet. Bentley howled and squirmed under the blows, but White kept the work up till his two handed brush had been worn down to a club. Bentley paraded his. "welts" before the=court and White and fined five dollars for the fun. During his entire castigation Bentley was too cowardly to jump down and close in with his assailant but kept his place on the ladder first standing on one leg and then on the other, and whined and howled and cried to the amusement of the crowd drawn to gether by his loud pleadings of "Oh dear Doctor, don't whip me-" So far as known there was nothing vicious in his nature, but it was his evident desire to rid himself of the "old crow''with,a view: Ito conquering new worlds that led him into his presen

HEAVY TAXES IN ROME.

Levying of an Unwonted Family Tax
 Raises DtscOntent.
 The British consul in Rome, referring in a recent report on the condition of that city to its financial position. men, tions the levy of an impOst called ''tasSa di famiglia," or family tax. This, ac- cOrding to the New York Post, is one of the taxes which all Italian communes are authorized by law to levy, but which until the present time had never been resorted to in Rome.
 The general law on this subject has fixed one hundred dollars as the highest amount chargeable on a family, where as, in Rome, as also in other chief towns of Italy, the necessary power was ob- tained to raise the maximum figure to ESQ. This tax has caused great discon- tent, chiefly on account of its nature as it is inquisitorial and is imposed in pro- portion to the presumed income or wei fare of each family. There are forty two different classes of taxpayers. Those having a minimum income of four hundred dollars a year are taxed at the lowest rate of two dollars, and ihoSC hdNil d HidAiAhuLh AhColIt oI twenty thousand dollars or more the highest, four hundred dollars. This tax is expected to yield about two hun dred thousand dollars a year
 Foreign families who have not their permanent residence in Rome. and who do not own real property or who eXer- else any profession and have no car riages, although they may have rented unfurnished apartments for number of years. have not been included on the lslis of InlS tax
