l. SIXTH DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA,
DEPUTY COLLECTORS OFFICE,
ALEXANDRIA, April 10, 1895.
All persons liable to the income tax arc
hereby notified that unless their returns are
fled in the Collectors office or at my Office,
Custom House building, on or before April
18th, 1895 that penalty of SO per cent
will be imposed upon them
In sending out blanks to persons, corpora
tions companies or associations who it was
thought might come under the provisions of
the income tax law, it is likely some who are
subject to the tax have been overlooked, but
that fact will not exempt them from the oper-
alton of the law They will not be allowed
to plead ignorance of the law and will have
to pay heavy penalty for noncompliance.
"0nly debts which were contracted during
the year 1894, and found in said year to be
worthless and losses from the sale of bonds,
notes and other personal property purchased
in said year. can be deducted from income as
in computing income for that year"
In all cases of wilful neglect or refusal to
make and render u list or return, as pre-
scribed by law, it is my duty to make such
list aud to add SO per cent. as penalty to
the amount of tax due on such list In all
cases Of wilfuliy false or fraudulent list or
return having been rendered it is my duty to
add 100 per cent as the penalty to the
amount of tax ascertained to be due.
hope every one liable to this tax will file
returns on or before Monday, April 15, and
thereby save me very unpleasant duty.

KILLED BY FRIGHT.-At Newberne,
N. c., Miss Julia Taylor, aged SO, who
lived alone, screamed for help about
midnight Wednesday night. Her
neighbor responded. Miss Taylor said
man had come on her porch, and she
had raised the window and asked who it
was. The man grasped at her aud she
dropped the window and the man left.
The neighbor told her to come to bis
house and remain the rest of the night.
She was supposed to be preparing to do
so, but hearing nothing more of her the
neighbor looked into the window and
saw her lying dead on the floor. The
eoroner's jury decided she had died OF
fright.
