The complaint made by the sheriff
is that papers have to be served mile
away from THE courthouse and county
seats, and no provision is made in the
new law for mileage or expenses in.
CURED in such service. A sheriff has

COUNTY JUDGES FINISH.
More Amendments Proposed 10 Present
Laws.
(Oregonia.n.l


The Legislative committee of county
judges ended its session yesterday A
further amendment was recommended
to the assessment law as follows:
THAT an assessment against person
al property shall constitute an account
IagaInst the owner thereof, when such
las5essmendt is made, and than any per-
conal property Of the owner within the
State Of oregon, or real property within
the county where he or she resides, shall
be liable for said tax when due, with
out reference Ito the properly assessed -
For instance, under the present sys-
tenn a taxpayer may be assessed as
owner Of 1000 head of horses, and, when
the tax is due and payable, he no long
er has these horses, having in the mean
time sold them. AS the law now is,
lthe collection of the tax which was lev
led upon these horses, cannot be enforc-
ed 10y leyying, seiaing and selling any
ocher property of which the person may
be possessed. BY the amendment pro-
posed Saner property may be seized
upon for the tax.
The mabter oil providing for the pay
menL OF all tLXes with gold and silver
coins, and not accept county warrants
in payment, was discussed favorably,
but no bill was formulated by the
judges, but instead tine subject will be
Left 10 the wisdom of the legislators.
An amendment 10 the probate law is
Ito be recommended TO the Legislature, |
governing the compensation Of admin
Gstrdtors Under ithe existing law a man
dies and leaves an estate worth $4,000, |
of which $1,000 consists of personal prop
erty and $4,000 in real estate, houses
and lots. The real estate is free OF
debt and is devised to the widow and
the $1,000 personal property is divided
up among several heirs, and few small
debts are settled up. AS the estate is
worth $4,000, the administrator has to
give a bond of $4,000, and is entitled
Ito per centage as allowed by law,
for his work, on the whole value OF
the estate. The only part of the estate
which he handles is the personal-prop-
erty portion, of $4,000. He does nothing
with the $4,000 worth of real estate,
save to see that it is transferred to the
widow. According the existing law
the administrator or executor is allowed
his percentage on this $4,000 at a GER
tain per cent per thousand amounting
to several hundred dollars. The amend
ment proposese to change this, and is
to permit the paying of pei
cen1ages to be discretionary with the
county judges, who may allow in some
5ases, where there is some care of the
real estate.
An amendment is also proposed to the
same law, so that in a case of this
kind, where an administrator only ham
lies the personal property, the bond
given by the administrator or executor
shall only be in double of the value
Of the personal property, and not dou
5le of the value of the whole estate.
Where rents and incomes of the proper
Ly is to be collected, the bond shall also

The Use ofst1so Toes.

According to an eminent medical
authority, it has recently been assert
ed that the human being has little or
no independent use Of the toes. The
medical scientist who is said to be re-
sponsible for such remarkable
statement is taken quite sharply to
task for his assertions, and the sub
ject has been up for discussion in for
eign medical journals Possibly Eng
ish toes are less useful than Ameri-
can, for certain it is that there are
many persons in OUT communities
who are quite handy, so to speak,
with these members, One. woman
frequently picks up articles with her
toes, finding this preferable to stoop-
ing, and she does it with the utmost
ease.
A girl can almost sustain her own
weight by clinging to a rope with
her toes. Another can spread her
toes apart and give sharp pinches
when she closes them. A small boy,
who could not climb out upon the
limb of a cherry tree to reach the
coveted fruit, as the limb would not
bear his weight, extended himself
upon one above it, and letting his
feet hang over pulled the small
branches with, his toes and trans
ferred them to his hands almost as
readily as he might have passed
them from one hand to the other.
AS to the part the toes play in walk
ing, it seem to go without saying
that persons who have not injured
the feet by the use of i'll fitting or too
small shoes are largely dependent
for elegance Of carriage upon the
elasticity and muscular strength Of
this portion of the feet.-New York
