An Important Decision.

Lewiston, February 20.-The Law
court has rendered an important decision
upon She question of the taxation of
such property of religious and charita-
bile institutions as is not used By the IN
stitution for its own purposes. In the
case of the City of Auburn. VS.. the
Auburn Y. NC. A., the court says:
The real estate of the Young Mems
Christian Association of Auburn,
whether the association be classed with
in the meaning of the statute on taxa
ton, as religious or as a charitable in
stitution, is taxable as other real estate
is, so far as it is not used or occupied by
the association for it's own purposes, but
is rented for the sake of obtaining reye
nue. therefrom.,
Where one portion of a building which
is real estate is taxable and another
portion not, it cannot be considered I'M a
suit for the collection of taxes theron,
Objectionable for the assessors to estimate
the value of the whole estate, and, after
deducting from the amount of such
estimate the value of the non-taxa BILE
portion of the estate. to assess a tax up
on the amount of the estimated value

Hiram Hackett,s Case.

Particulars of the case of Hiram Hack
ett, who has confessed to taking the
bonds of the Bray estate, show that
Hackett and his son-in-law Lander, regis
tered at the Preble house, Portland, Oc-
tober 10. Hackett removed the S21, 00C
worth of bonds from the deposit vault
on the next day, and the two
proceeded to Fall River, Mass.
Where they attempted to negotiate
the bonds. Failing there, they returned
to Maine and boarded a Canadian Pacific
train near Jackmantown. They then
visited the Worlds Fair, Wisconsin and
Victoria (Montana), and returned to
Winnipeg Novem Der 20.
Hackett was taken sick at the latter
place, and Lander, after a three days
stay, went east. A strong fight was made
in Winnipeg to assist Hackett in retain
ing the bonds, and it was only after nine
days of hard work that the Maine de-
tective succeeded in carrying his pont.
Hackett made clean breast of the
whole affair on Monday last. He init
mated that he was pulled into the
scheme with the belief that he could
make money specializing and return
Isreal Bray's heirs their just deserts.

Achdliessand tho Tortoise.

There is one paradox which upon its
face appears to be veryie of solu-
ton, but which, after careful study,
does not pan out SO well. The story
was first told upon a gentleman named
Achilles, who was rather prominent in
early political times, and who had a
reputation as an all round athletic He
could rum and run fast at that One day
he started to catch tortoise, which was
as slow in those days as he is today.
Achilles was some distance behind the
tortoise and set out to capture it, Achil-
les went twice as fast as the slow old
tortoise and gained constantly. but he
never caught it. No matter what prog
ress Achilles made, the tortoise went
ahead just half as far. BY this time the
distance between the two, had they lived
to this day, would have been infnitesi-
NAL, but yet if Achilles and the tortoise
ran with the proper mathematical pre-
cision there would Still be an interval
between the two. st. Louis Globe

How Do You Cross Your "r.s?"

A graphologist has discovered that
character can be read from the letter
''t' alone, according to an English pa
per. He claims that the vertical line
represents the fatality of life, and the
horizontal bar the influence human will
exercises over this fatality.
In addition, he claims that the higher
or lower writer crosses the ''t' is a
guide to the amount of ideality contain
ed in his nature, and that the lower
part of the letter corresponds to the
practical and material part of the man g
character.
For instance, the optimist crosses
his is with line that slopes upward
from the ground to the sky, as ii
were. The poet often crosses his t's
quito above the vertical line---in other
words, in the sky
The pessimist crosses his It's with a
downward sloping stroke. The line
which is below the ideal portion of the
letter descends little by little until it is
lost ameng the sad realities of earthly
existence.
The practical man, it appears, always
steers middle course, and crosses MS

THE SUIT FOR ISLANDER.
Yesterdays Testimony in the Oxford
County Case.

Paris, February 20.-In the futile
SANDER trial today, VIM. R. Keen testi-
fed that he had heard Buchanan make
defamatory statements concerning Miss
futile in public places. John Decoster,
VIM. Howard, Chas. Decoster, Walter
Purciss and others testified to the same
effect.
This afternoon Hon. O. W. Hersey op-
ened for the defence. He said 'We
will show Miss Tuttle has been indis-
Greet ip receiving attentions and pres
sents from married man. Her relatives
took advantage of Bucknam's infatua-
this suit. No one believed the stories
and her character was not damaged"
Several witnesses testified to Buck

and pretty presents to the teacher.

watched him hand them to her. He put
his arm around her and she dropped her

Mr. Swasey, in closing for the defence

PARIS IN TERROR.
People Losing Confidence in the Ability OF
the Police to Put Down Anarchism.

Paris, February 20.-A bomb was ex-
platled at small hotel 169 Rue st.
jacques; at /. 81 this morning. It was left
there yesterday by ledger who has dis
appeared. The landlord and two dodgers
were seriously wounded. There is great
excitement in that quarter. 1t was
learned this forenoon that an attempt
had been made to blow up, or at least to
injure, the buildings of the ministry OF
foreign affairs. A metal tube was found
lying at the entrance Of the foreign
Office which, it was suspected, was
loaded with dynamite. The tube was
turned over. to the Ielice, who will have
the contents examined. A bono similar
to the one exploded at No. 90
Rue St. Jacques early this morn
ing, I: was discovered in another
small hotel at No.47 Faubourg St. Mar
tin. Fortunately the latter bomb was
found and safely removed before any
damage had.been done. 1t is believed,
and all evidence thus far secured points
to the conclusion, that the two men who
caused the outrage at the first mentioned
hotel were carrying out plot to cause
explosions in hotels in different parts Of
the CITY. 4 close search will be made of
ali the hotels, large and small, to see if
the men have left bombs in any others
of them.
the scare caused by the anarchists, and
il is probable that this latest demonstra-
ton of the Willingness of the anarchists
to spread the propaganda by the act"
will cause a further falling off in their
receipts. The people are beginning: to
lose confidence in the authorities being
able to put an end.to anarchists crimes,
It was only yesterday that domicilary
visits were made to one hundred and
fifty houses occupied by anarchists, and
the net result was the seizure of lot OF
literature but no explosives. This fact
taken in connection with this morn
ing's explosion, is thought by the general
nubIic to indicate that the police are
powerless to prevent the anarchists from
manufacturing and using explosives.
France and Russia.
Berlin, February 2O-The Frankfort
Zeitung is authority for the statement
that Russia and France have exchanged
notes respecting the duties imposed on
Russian grain imported into France.
Russia, the paper says, while disclaim-
ing the right to interfere with the in
ternaI affairs of another power, declared
that She must protect Russian interests
If French duties on Russian grain re-
suited in arrangement of Russian ex-
port trade, she must and would notify
France of the termination OF the Franco
Russian commercial treaty France in
reply, said she must respond to the
popular feeling for protection. but the
duties on Russian grain would be limited
to the minimum provided for by the new
tariff. This reply. according to the
Zeitung, was not satisfactory to Russia,
who replied that, notwithstanding Its
receipt. she would continue to adhere
to her previously expressed views on the
subject.
