old MRS. WATSON,
THOUGH PAST THREE SCORE
AND TEN,
GETS A LOAD ON AT TIMES
And One of Them Brought Her Be-
fore Judge Twohy, Who Frees
Her Because of Age.

Mrs. Eliza Watson, decrepit old
lady of seventy-tWo, whose hair is al
most snow-white, feebly protested in
the municipal court yesterday when
arraigned before Judge Twohy on a
charge of drunkenness preferred by
Officer McEllistrom. She was not
drunk, she informed his honor, but
having just arrived from Mendoza was
trffie fatigued. Just to clear her
throat she admitted having taken one
little drink. She was only on her way
to the central station to secure a
nights repose, she explained when
she was arrested. Out of compassion
for her extreme age Judge Twohy dis
missed the charge against Mrs. Wat
son.
However, when arrested, the old lady
from Mendoza was in a decidedly bib
ulous condition. Matron Cummings.
who recognized her as having been in
jail before, was roundly abused by
Mrs. Watson after her sleep. Her tenn
per was not improved by a slight in
jury she sustained in rolling off her
bunk, which inflicted a painful bruise
on her forehead. When breakfast time
arrived without the accompaniment of
a cheering repast Mrs. Watson wrath
fully abused the matron for not fur
nishing the accessories of a first-class
hotel.

Assessment Against 1t Is Motto
to the FTPma Hyynar

Assessment Against 1t Is Notice
to the True Owner.
The board of aldermen committee on
claims met yesterday afternoon and
passed the monthly budget of bills.
A petition was received from John NJ.
warner, asking that the city refund to
him the sum of $317, assessment, in
terest and penalties paid under pro-
test, for the opening and grading of
Fairview street, in 1880. Mr. Warner
states in his petition that the prop
erty was assessed in the name OF c. E.
Dickerman as the owner thereof,
whereas he was not the owner Suisse
quently judgment was obtained against
the property, but Mr.. Warner insists
that the judgment was void, mas
much as he, the true owner, received
no notice of the assessment. He
further alleges that he did not know
of the assessment and Judgment
against the property until Jan Is,
1885. just four days before the ex-
piration of the time of redemption.
On Jan. q, Mr. Warner paid in the $317
to save his rights.
Upon the advice of Assistant City
Attorney Chaplin, the committee voted
to make an adverse report upon the
petition asking for the return of the
money, as the assessment was made
solely against the property of Mr.
Warner, and was therefore valid as
due notice was given. The same
rule applied to the judgment.
The claim of Elvena Theis for S.. 900
for injuries caused by defective side
walk will be considered at the next

COLLECTOR is BUSY
RECEIVING RETURNS ON THE
INCOME TAX.
CORPORATIONS ARE LIABLE
AS Well as IndividuaIs,T Though II
Is Not Generally Understood,
Apparently.

The internal revenue office is very
busy at the present time with tt g in
come tax business. Owing to various
reasons, The necessary blanks for the
returns have but just recently been re-
ceiyed, and as the time for rendering
the returHs expires on March 4, uiiess
exte nded b. congress, the revenue Of
ficers are 1oine all they can to get the
blanks as fast as possible into the
hands of all parties whom it is pre-
Sumed may be liable to the tax.
1t does not seem to be generally
known that all corporations are re-
quired to make returns, and to pay
the tax of 2 per cent upon their net
profits without deductions, while indi-
viduals having an income of more than
$500 must render returns, although
they will not be taxed unless their in
comes exceed $4,000
Copartnerships, as such, are not re-
quired to make returns, but the indi-
viduals of the firms will make returns
if their incomes reach the limit stated.
Lists of names have been prepared
from various sources by the deputies,
and the collector is having blanks sent
to tn m rs fast as tn. V can be pre-
pared. This part of the work is entire
ly voluntary, as the law does not re-
quire the sending of blanks, unless
called for. and all persons needing
them should Ise no time in securing
blanks from Collector w. H. Harries,
of ST. Paul, if they have not already
been supplied.
failure to receive the blanks or
any notice that such returns should be
made cannot be deemed a valid excuse
for not making the return, and will not
prevent or reduce the penalties i'm
posed by law for such failure or neg
lect
TIE penalties, in the case Of corpora
lions, is a forfeiture of 81, 900 and so per
cent of the amount of tax due and 2
er cet o. the amount of taxes due
for each month until the same is paid.
The penalty for failure of an individual
to render the return and in due time,
is 50 per cent of the tax due. The pen
alties in both cases are to be collected
in the same manner as provided in
other cases of neglect or refusal to
make return Of taxes under the inter-
nal revenue laws

HORR7S ADDRESS
Concerns All Interested in Mn.
Eicipal Reform.

Eicipal Reform.
c. w. Horn, chairman of the special
committee of the Municipal league, has
issued the following address to reform
ers concerning the idea of holding
ward meetings and extending the
movement of reform:
Taxpayers of st. Paul: Next week,
if possible, we wish to arrange
for meetings in every ward in
this city where those interested
in st. Paul can meet and con-
suit together in regard to legislation
necessary to reduce taxation in this
city and county. In these times of
general depression it is absolutely nee
essary that our city and county prac-
tice economy and relieve as far as
possible the burden of taxation from
the people, who are all suffering from
the great reduction in wages and sal
aries. This is to be accomplished bv
the combined efforts of the taxpayers,
as our representatives in the legisla-
ture will willingly do the bidding OF
their constituents if forcible express
sion is given as to what they desire in
the way of the necessary reform legis-
lation. By reducing taxation we will
not only give confidence to those at
home, but investors abroad, who will
realize that st. Paul is the safest
place to invest in, because we are re-
ducing expenses. 1t is not wise to try
and deceive ourselves. We must meet
the issue fairly and reduce city and
county expenses at once. The per-
sonal aims and ridicule of a few indi-
viduals whose interest it is to per-
petuate existing state of affairs should
not deter us in this much needed work
of reform. We can accomplish re-
suits for the general good if the tax
payers come together for consultation
and action. Notice of meeting will be
given as soon as dates are arranged.

engines of much greater power than
their licenses permit. The matter of
changing the five districts into seven

LOTS OF BEAUTY
Present at the Trial of Lillian
HATES Dnmnre Case

Present at the Trial of Lillian
Harris Damage Case.
Judge Kerr's court room yesterday
was a perfect galaxy of female beauty.
girlish bloom, feminine sweetness-irl
fact, everything that goes to make up
the delicate charms of the fair sex
There sat ladies, from the bursting
rosebud of sweet sixteen to the more
sober maiden of-weil, questionable
years, as indicated by an occasional
furrow that marked where the plough
of time had run around the easement
of her optics. Among the number
were even a few who, more fortunate
or less so-than their sisters, claimed
the distinction of having matrimonial
mates.
The occasion of this array of woman
ly loneliness was the second trial of
the suit of Lillian Hart against the city
to recover $1,000 for personal injuries
alleged to have been sustained in con-
sequence of a fall received while cross
ing the street at the corner of st. Peter
and Fourth streets last June the
plaintiff claiming that hole about six
inches deep in the crossing caused the
mishap. Miss Hart was at the time
an employee of the Windsor hotel, and
ladies in court yesterday were all past
or present employees of that popular in
stitution.
Though there was nothing of special
interest in the testimony, the court
room became so crowded that Judge
Kerr had to order that all who could
not find seats he oOrnpe1Iad RI yaoat a
The judge said it was becoming too
noisy, but some of those who were
driven out were mean enough to sus-
pect that his honor is possessed of the
instincts OF monopolist.
The jury disagreed in the previous
trial.

SHIPPER RESPONSIBLE.
So Says the Jury in Thuet BrOs.5
Suit Against the Omaha.

The jury in the suit of Thuet Bros.
against the Omaha road to recover for
the loss of car load of stock shipped
over the road, yesterday brought in a
verdict for $3.50 in favor of the plaintiff.
The suit was for $1,100, the full value
of the entire car load of stock 1t is
probable, therefore, that the jury sim
ply aimed to give a verdict for the
value of the stock that were not killed,
but which the plaintiff refused to &C
cept when they reached their destina-
ton, and were sold by the defendant
The outcome of the trial is. therefore,
equivalent to a verdict for the defend
ant as to the actual damage claimed.
The defense was that the stock was
not properly loaded, one end of the car
containing seven head of cattle and
twenty-four hogs in small space
The other end contained sheep and
calves, and the fact that none of the
latter were injured, sustained the
theory of the defense that the car had
received no unusual jerk or jar, and
that the plaintiffs must have been re-
sponsible by reason of Improperly load
ing the stock. Four of the cattle and
all but eight of the hogs were killed
before the car reached Ashland
