Income Tax Returns.

WASHINGTON, ID. G., April 3.-The
income tax returns are coming in far
beyond the expectations Ofthe officials.
To save time and avoid complications
the Collectors were instructed to classify
and send in the returns on the 10th of
each month, and therefore no reports
have been received of a date later than
March 10. Nevertheless. as many as
10000 returns have already been re-
ceived. and are now being verified and
being recorded. 1t is estimated that
the returns made to the Collectors
prior to March 10 represent at least
81. 800. 900 in income tax. and that the
actual amount returned to April l will
aggregate 5000. 900. 1t was not ex-
pected that returns to any considera BILE
extent would be made before the Sth
or 10th of April, five days before the
time limit expires, and hence the show
ing so far made is exceedingly gratify-
ing to those having the matter in
charge. Another matter of cOngratu-
lation is that little difficulty is being
experienced by taxpayers in filling out
the blanks. So far little or no diff
Guilty has been encountered. and, all
things considered, the work of collect
ing the tax is going forward with very
little friction. 1t is expected that at
least $40, ZOO, 900 income tax will have
been collected by June /, the close of
the fiscal year. The officials do not
express any doubts that the Supreme
Court will sustain all of the important
features Of the law, if not the entire
act as it stands, and are pushing the
work as rapidly as is consistent with
accuracy.

MISSOURI SUPREME cOUaT.
Taxing Powers of Cities of theThird
Class

Taxing Powers of Cities of the Third
Glass.
JEFFERSON CITY. Mo-. March 81
The State Supreme Court in banc and
Division No. l were in session yester-
day. All of the Judges we're present
except Judge T. y. Sherwood, who is
away on account of sickness. In the
court in banc an important opinion was
filed involving the constitutional con-
struction of the limitation of taxing
powers placed on cities of the third
and fouth classes. The City of Lamar
contracted with the Lamar Water
Works Company for plant. and
afterwards, under a ruling of the Cir
cult Court, could not pay the rental.
The lower court held that soc on the
500 valuation was the limit of the
city's power to provide forwater works
after operating expenses of the local
government had been taken out. The
Supreme Court holds differently. The
soc limit is all that can be levied on
real estate and personal property, but
license taxes may be used for public
purposes, as we'll as any part of the
SOC levy. The lower court is reversed.

The Toll Reduced.

Louis Houck, President of the Cape
Girardeau and Scott County Rock
Road Company, issued orders to-day
to the toll gate keepers to pass wagons
loaded with wheat and corn through
the toll gates for twenty-five cents for
the round trip. This order is to stand
and be in force for term of six
months.
Mr.. Houck says he makes this rate
for the purpose of inducing the farm
ers of Scott county to bring their
wheat and corn to this market. Hehas
instructed the toll gate keepers to keep
a record of the wagons that pass
through the gates on the reduced rate
and to make monthly reports of same.
If the reduced rate makes fair show
ing Mr.. Houck will continue the order
for longer time.

Those Biennial Sessions.

''One by one the roses fall" and
one by one Western Legislatures ad-
journ and the biennial sessions of 1895
come to a welcome end. In many in
stances time limits placed upon the
duration of Legislatures by the wise
trainers of State Constitutions shorten
inflexibly the power for evil on the
part of the lawmakers and send them
home. to the great relief of their re-
spective COmmonwealths. at certain
fixed periods, more or less brief. In
such cases forty, sixty and ninety
days see the termination of their
mischief. Indiana, Kansas, Nebraska,
Missouri and others are thus now we'll

session for MissOuri-and compare
tive peace reigns for another two
years in the vested interests of people
and organizations doing business
within their confines. Others will pass

then there will only remain the in
definite terrOrs OF Illinois and

however. though checked by no ju-
dicious time limit. does not average
so very badly in the character of its
efforts; but chrome awaits the man
who can devise anything new in the
line of uncOmfOrtab BILE legislation which
has not. at some time. been proposed
at Springfield. The sovereign State
of Illinois takes back seat to nothing
in the way of attempted vicious law
making. not even to New York. and
the fact that the gentlemen at Spring

heat of June drives them home. adds
to the beauties of the situation.

Springfield every other year.

BAPTISM IN A BLIZZARD.
Weather Has No Terror for the
Faithful Dunkards.

PHILADELPHIA, April 4.-BliZzards
and northeasters have no terrors for
the Dunkards when they have business
on hand. They had business at Earl
vile. Pa. some days ago, when two
women were to be baptized. The creek
was frozen and covered with snow. but
it took few minutes only to sweep
of the snow and cut good-sized hole
through the ice. Then Rev. Mr..
Graybill waded into the icy water and
intimated that he was ready. Miss
Croft was thereupon conducted to the
water andquestioned as to her spiritual
convictions as she stood and shivered
in the creek
Then the minister threw water over
her and to complete the ceremony
dipped her forward three times in the
creek. After this she knelt in the
water up to her chin, while the minister
prayed that her name might be written
in the book of life. Altogether she
was in the water fully five minutes,
and when she came out her face was
livid and her frame shook as with
ague. But at the supper that was
given to the brethren that night she ac-
knOwledged that she felt much better
and happier for the experience.

Awkward Coincidence.

At a recent performance at one of
the leading theaters a few evenings
ago two ladies who lived at distance,
having to catch an early train, were
obliged to leave the theater before the
performance was finished. Selecting,
as they thought. quietinterlude, they
were passing out of the stalls, when an
actor suddenly appeared on the stage,
and, repeating a part of his role. ex-
claimed: There they go. The only
two womenI everloved. One couldn't
have and the other | couldn't get. :"

the astonishment of the young ladies

4 Noted Preacher.

Evangelist Bilbro, recently of the
National Evangelization Society of
Baltimore. preached in the Baptist
church yesterday morning and night.
The falling rain did not prevent a
large attendance nor cool the deep
spiritual interest. Several requested
prayer at the morning service. and at
night the front seat was crowded with
anxious inquirers, while many others
manifested interest in the congrega-
ton. Nearly all these of last night
{ u or i in uumber) were men. Mr..
Bilbro is college and seminary
graduate, an earnest Bible student. an
original thinker, logical reasoner.
and pleasant speaker. He works on
the plan of his former teacher. the re-
nowned Moody. and has been equally
successful in States east. west. north
and south, and in Canada. 1t is a
treat to our church goers to have such
men visit our city, and we think Bro.
Tate especially fortunate in securing
such man to fill his pulpit. Those
who go late tonight are almost sure
to fail to get in.

AN OBNOXIOUS MOTION.
\ Kentuckian Who Swore by Col.

The Kentucky Legislature is in some

and it lay on the desk before him. he
heard some member move to dispense
with the reading of the journal, which
was part of the regular routine of

aside his paper. The next day it was
the same, and so on for two weeks. and

\ Weak Foreign Policy.

1t is quite likely that all of the
many pending foreign complications
will be amicably settled. but this re-
| suit will be due rather to the feeble
ness of the Administration than to Il
proper support OF our rights and in
terests on its part. Other countries
understand very we'll that our present
| foreign policy is one of concession
and conciliation rather than of digni-
ty. firmness and self-reliance. The
fact that various nations have ventured
to assail our interests, to discriminate
against our products, to treat our
wishes with Indifference, implies that
they recognize the weakness of the
Administration and feel that they are
taking no risk in adopting such
course. They are not at all afraid of
being called to account for their un-
friendly actions. At the most. moth
ing worse can happen, they are salts
fed than a little diplomatic cOntro-
versy. with the probability that in
the end they will secure all they want.
They know that the whole tendency of
the policy of the Administration in
international disputes is toward Il
peaceful solution at any cost. and they
are quick to take advantage of the op-
portunity thus presented for the pro-
motion of their own welfare and
prosperity at our expense.
The people of the United States cer-
tainly do not indOrse this policy.
They believe III peace, to be sure, and
prefer the maintenance of friendly
relations with all the rest of the world:
but they do not believe in seeking such
a result by tamely submitting to all
sorts of Sights and injuries, or by
the idea to prevail that they
are more opposed to war than they
are to humiliation. It is not to be
for a moment that they favor
the theory of dealing with every in
tervening foreign difficulty in a spirit
of unrulfied kindness and systematic
condescension. They would like to
see a little pluck and independence
in diplomatic affairs. The
policy of avoiding war by showing
readiness to fight if necessary would
suit them much better than this con-
stant suggestion of a willingness to
accept almost any terms in order to
prevent hostilities. They are tired
and sick. in short. of methods that
bring reproach and ridicule upon the
country, and put it practically at the /
mercy of scheming and intimidating
nations. This is one of their greatest /
grievances against the Cleveland Ad- !
and the Democratic party. !
They long for display of courageous
and resolute Americanism and for /
proper assertion of the fact that the |
flag of their country means something
more than piece at any price. Globe !

The Charm of scotch Words.

| wonder if persons who can write
Scotch are sufficiently aware of the
great literary advantage they have
over Writers who are not born to that
ability. 1t is no credit to them that
they can do it. 1t is n gift of nature
dropped in their lap. I never heard
of any one who learned by artificial
means to write Scotch. Scotch writer's
do it, and no one else. 1t has long
been obvious that the proportion of
good writer's to the whole Scotch
population was exceedingly large:
but | do not remember that it has ever
been pointed out how much easier it is
for a Scotchman to be IA good writer
than another because of his innate
command of Scotch tongue. There
are such delightful words in that lam
guage: words that sing on the printed
page wherever their employer happens
to drop them in; words that rustic:
words that skirl. and words that clash
and thump.-Scribner for April

THE USE OF HORSE MEAT.
Rapidly Taking the Place of Beef
and Mutton in German Cities.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. April LIN
view of the closing of German markets
to American cattle there is another
direction toward which American
packers might we'll turn their attention.
and that is the preparation and sale
of horse meat. The above is the sug-
gestion made by United States Consul
z. w. Tingle, ut Brunswick, Germany,
in report to the State Department.
He says that in large German cities the
consumption of horse meat is almost
as great as that of beef and mutton,
and it is growing in the smaller towns.
OF course, the customers are exclusive
ly of the poorer classes, but they COM
pose nine-tenths of the consumers of
the country, and the meat is sold for
&c pound, as against beef at from
15c to 25c. The Consul sets out rea-
sons to prove that horse meat is quite
as good as beef. He says the demand
has increased so rapidly in Germany
that it is difficult to meet it, and,
whereas, butchers formerly paid from
s. to 80 for a worn-out horse for
slaughter, they pay sis and $50, and
prices are rising.
The Consul sees here a great oppor-
tunity for American packers. He says
the horse supply in America is
practically inexhaustible: they can be
raised in the West cheaper than cattle,
and are more easily shipped. The
meat can not be canned, but it can be
furnished salted or smoked as we'll as
fresh, just as ii is used in Germany.
The report touches upon the astonish-
ingly rapid disuse of horses in Ameri-
ca, consequent upon the Introduction
of the. trolly car, which has made
horse raising in the West Improbable,
and urges that the ranchman may find
relief by raising horses for food,
the prejudice against the meat in
America being no good reason why he
should not profit by the different state
of things in another country.
