the income tax strikes us as
both just and proper. An in
come tax which applies alike
to all, exempting none, and
discriminating against none,
would certainly be a more. sat

the government, than by means
of import duties. Every man
who enjoys the benefits of the

pay for its support, and we
should think IL would be far
more preferable to pay a direct
tax for the purpose than to pay
what amounts to the same

GEORGE W. CHILDs

GEORGE w. CHILDS
When George ". Guilds died
February 3, 1894, the papers
throughout lie country, with
out regard TO political COM
plexion, paid high tributes to
his memory.
At his country home he ems
tertained Grant, Sherman, Sher-
idan, Blaine-to enumerate all
of the Ifominent Americans
who partook of his hospitality
would involve almost all whose
names live in the history of the
country as contemporary With
Mr.. Childs.
The outline Of Mr.. Childs'
life were after q familiar Amer
lean pattern. He was born in
Baltimore, May II, 1929, and
knew what it was to want mon
ey. At the age of fourteen he
came to Philadelphia and en-
tered store. Four years after
he came to the city, friendless
boy, he had saved enough mon
ey to begin business in a small
way on his own account. Three
years after, he formed a part
nership with Robert Z. Peter
son, his father in-law. The firm
published DR.. Elisha Kent
Kane's account of his Arctic
Explorations, and paid the
author $4,000 in royalties, in
a single year, making an equal
profit itself. The firm was so
successful through a number of
years that Mr.. Child's share of
profits amounted to $4,000 in
1868, the year before he pur-
chased the Public Ledger.
As a philanthropist Mr..
Child's name was known at
home and abroad. He educated
young men and women by the
hundreds. He provided hun
dreds with a trip to the worlds
fair. He originated the idea of
erecting the Child-Drexel home
for infrm printers, which was
built at Colorado Springs, Col
orado.
This Office has received a
magnificent pastelotype of Mr..
Childs, which has the appear
ance Of being an oil painting,
sent Out by the Eureka Chem
ical & Mfg. Cos Of La Crosse,

HOW TO CATCH ALLIGATORS.

Simply Plunge in After Them and Stab
Them with q Dagger.
A learned Frenchman, M. Desire
| Charnay, exploring the ancient ruins
of Mexico and Central America, was
| surprised to find the Indians in some
places living upon the flesh of alliga-
tors. One day he asked his host, whom
he calls Don Juan, how the creatures
We're caught. 1t was done in two ways,
he was answered, but usually the In
dians plunged into the water, stabbed
the alligator and drew him out.
The Frenchman expressed a desire
| to see the performance, and took out
| plaster, which he offered to give the
hero of the encounter.
"The plaster Is needless" said Don
Juan, but 1t will do no harm"
Then, as they were passing through
the village, he hailed an Indian. A tall,
thin, nervous looking fellow came up,
hat in hand
This gentleman wants to see you
kill an alligator" said Don Juan.
THAT is easy enough, and to please
you, Don Juan"
Here is a plaster, my boy. Try to
distinguish yourself"
| In five minutes the men were down to
the lagoon, Don Juan and the French
man In boat, and the Indian, stripped
| for work, on the bank. In his hand was
dagger some eight inches long. Just
then two huge alligators dashed into
the wster. In less time than it takes
to tell 1t the Indian stuck the dagger
| hnt a
sight into the water.
| He was gone long time the French
man thought some seconds as long
as hours"-then the water was troubled
again; the alligator, lashing his tail,
came to the surface, and the Indian,
covered with mud, was clinging to the
horrible creatures stomach
Then they disappeared again. leaving
a trail of blood behind them. Bravo
bravo" cried Don Juan, while NJ. Char
nays blood froze in his veins, and he
wished he had never instigated the
affair There was a tremendous splash
Ing. Some seconds passed, and this
time the Indian alone came to the sur
face covered with mud and half suf-
,focated. A cry of joy escaped the
Frenchman's lips. The Indian swan tC
the boat, where he sat silent for a
moment recovering his breath.
THE scamp has bitten my finger" he
said, holding up his hand, but 1 paid
him, as you will soon see."
Sure enough. while the Indian was
still scraping the mud from his limbs
the alligator, bottom upward, appeared
at the surface.
The Frenchman gave the fellow an.
other plaster, and then gave him q
francs for his dagger. The alligator
measured IA feet inches.

GROW COUNTY.


The Survey About Completed and the
Report Soon to he Made.
The commissioners appointed to sur
vey the proposed new county of Grow
have about completed their work and
win soon make their report to the gov
crnor According to the Shickshinny
Democrat, the line has been so run as
as to include the greater part of Lake
township in the new county. Some of
the cottage owners at Harvcy's Lake
will be lOctsted in Grow county and the
others remain in old LuZernc
Few people here IL the county seat
appear to have any apprehension that
Grow county will materialiZe, and yet
there IS no strong evidence that the peo-
pie in any section of tac territory in
cluded are opposed to it. If the conf
missioners report that the territory
they have surveyed contains 400 square
miles and not less than 10000 people,
under the law the governor will be re-
qriireq to order an election to be held
for the purpose ofsestinE the will of the
people on the question OF new county
or no new county. Suppose a majority
vote for the new county, that settles
IT, the new county will by That vote be
established and the governor must ap-
point county officers and the work Of
organization proceed n once. The
same formula Lacsawanna passed
through would prevail in the case of
Grow county If the people shall vote in
favor of the new county.

out. The conductor did so, and the

SIR Il should like to speak to you about
something, and l trust. sir, you will not
be offended There is no fear of it,
was the sturdy answer and then the
minister began to ask Mr.. Phillips earn
estly why he persisted in stirring up
such an unfriendly agitation in one part
of the country about an evil that exist
ed in another part. why said the
clergyman. do you not go South and
kick up this fuss and leave the North
in peace?' Mr.. Phillips was not the
least ruffled, and answered smilingly

ANOTHERiMURDER.
That Is What the Coroner's Jury Says in
the BalIautiuc Case

Reference was made in The Tribune
en- Saturday to the case of the old
soldier, John Ballantine, who was
found dead at the foot of the stairs in
his nome at Plymouth. He lived alone,
but a woman employed by him came
every morning to look after his house
and Keep it in order. Last Thursday
morning when the woman entered the
house she found Ballantine dead, with
a broken skull. The first assumption
was that he had fallen down stairs and
in that way sustained the fatal injury.
An examination made evident the fact
that Ballantine had been struck a
heavy blow on the head with a sharp
instrument, and that the object was
robbery. Iiallantine was pensioner
ard had jest ieceived his quarterly al
lowance of $50, and this money has not
been found. Deputy Coroner Perkins
held an inquest and verdict was rem
dered that John Ballantine came to his
death from the effects of a blow on the
head struck by some person unknown
to the jury. Now let this case be taken
hold of while 1t is fresh.
