Mrs. Helena Behrens, who caused a

mud and torn in a dozen places. She
was in Mysteries and cried out saying that
she had been assaulted. The police took
her to headquarters and when brought
before the sergeant's desk she was reeog-

MONDAY the supreme court handed
down its decision Of the income tax
case, and to the great delight of MANY
poverty stricken milllonaires the
court decided the law was entirely
unconstitutional aud void. The fol.
lowing is a synopsis OF the decision:
we adhere TO the opinion announced
nat taxes on real estate, being indis-
putably direct taxes, taxes on rents.
OF incomes on real estate, are equally
uirect taxes. We are OF the opinion
that taxes on personal property or on
the income Of personal property are
likewise direct taxes. A tax imposed
by sections p to 81 inclusiyeo OF the act
otls04, so far as lt falls on the income
Of real estate and on personal proper.
w. being a direct tax within the mean
ing OF the constitution, Is therefore
unconstitutional and void, because
not apportioned according to repre-
s~entatiOn.
