Stages ASSASSIN
Fruitiess Search of the Officers for the
Nurdercrs


rlurderers
SAN FRANCISCO, March 21.-The
search for the murderers of Cornelius
Stagg has proved unfrutful of results.
"Hank" Meyers, the bunco man who was
arrested on suspicion that he was impli-
Gated in the robbery of Haggerty's place
at Ocean Beach last September, will prob
ably be given his liberty today, as Hag-
gerty has failed to identify him. Before
the arrest was made the landlord of the
beach resort told the police he thought
Meyers and Gus Frey (the man who is
suspected OF having guilty knowledge of
the manner in which gambler named
Cash met his death in the town of Will
lows last summer) were the men who had
robbed and shot him. Frey is now serv-
ing time in the branch county jail for
vagrancy. Both Frey and Meyers have
bad records. and with number of other
bunco men frequented the beach last
summer Meyers has several witnesses
who declare that they were with him in a
downtown resort at the time Stagg was
murdered.

Telephone Completion

STOCKTON. March 21.-This evening
the telephone line running from this city
through Oakdale and Knights Ferry was
completed to Sonora, and was found on
testing to work perfectly. Superintendent
Kearns of the Stockton division was in
the Sonora office and conversed with peo-
pie here, receiving the congratulations OF
Stockton people for his triumph. He made
connection with Modesto and talked
over 107 miles of wire to this city, and
then talked with San Francisco, "a dis
tance of 207 miles. The completion of
this line is a matter of great satisfaction
to Sonora people. Chinese Camp, James
town and Coulerville are also connected
by this line, and soon it will be carried
into Calayeras county.

Some Comparative Statements
as to the Income Tax
IF ONE ONLY LIVED IN PARIS
Revenue Received by the Tax GathererS
In the French Metropolis
Everything From a Window to a Canine Is
Legitimate Prey for the Assessor.
Some Interesting Figures

WASHINGTON, March 21.-People who
take exception to the income tax and the
few internal revenue taxes imposed in the
United States may take some satisfaction
in learning how much worse off are the
French In this respect, as disclosed in q
report to the State Department by United
States Consul Wiley at Bordeaux.
He shows that every form Of legal paper,
cheques, notes and documents, bills of
lading, even Autographs, must have a
revenue stamp affixed From this source
the treasury draws it's political revenue
amounting yearly to $4,000, 900. The
spirit and wine tax amounts to $120, 000,-
900; the custom house receipts were $780,
600, 600; tobacco, Matches playing cards
and other government monopolies in
cluued, $780, 00U, 900.
Sugar paid an internal revenue tax Of
.052 cent per pound-$29. 600. 600 in all.
The land tax brought in $39, 600, 600, and
personal property S2S, 900. 900. Ii a clerk
occupied a hall room he pays tax of ~
per annum, while his landlady not only
has to pay for her poodle but for every
door and window in the house.
AS the treasury receipts are $12, 600, 900
per annum for windows, the architect
who can design house with the least
possible amount OF ventilation does the
best business. If you own a horse, car.
riage, billiard table or bicycle you are
taxed; the government collects $6, 400, 900
annually for permitting such luxuries to
exist, and a bill was recently introduced
in the chamber to tax the wearing of cor
sets. Business licenses bring in S24 900, :
600 per annum.
AS to expenditures, the interest on the
national debt is $270, 000 900, and the
maintenance of the $50, 600 men in the
army, for which the French are running
themselve costs $3.50, ,000 600. The navy
costs $50, 000 600 each year, and it costs
ST., 600, 600 to run the government match,
tobacco and card factories, for individ-
uals cannot make or sell these
things. Salaries cost 50, 600, 600 for
the president, senators and cham
ber and the Presidents salary is $240, 900
per annum nearly five times as great as
our presidents salary, and the French
executive has Il seven years term. The
judiciary costs $S, 900, ,000 and as the state
also pays the priests, $9,000 900 goes to
that account. The foreign office and dip
lomatic service cost $4,000, 600, and when
it comes to public works not less than
S240 600, 600 is spent annually making our
rivers and harbors and public buildings
seem ridiculously small. There are many
other items OF expense requiring the ex-
ercise of ingenuity to meet them, and
how long the French Government can
continue to support such an expensive
establishment is matter of speculation.

A laundry bench. as IDS well known, Is
made of ordinary pine, and has an arm
at each end to prevent the tub from
slipping off. 1t is. of course, without a
back. a most ungainly. even If useful
object in it's sphere of life. Transform

only graceful and comfortable. but
boasts Of an ~undeniable Oriental air.
"A fiat cushion is first made of several
thicknesses of cotton batting and m
ton flannel. This is fastened securely
to the seat. Then over the entire
bench is thrown a Bagdad curtain, so
that it falls to the floor over each arm
in graceful folds. 1t must be pressed
neatly into the shape of the seat. and
must hang in a straight piece back and
front. It is finished off by gaily COL
ored cushions at head and foot. I'm
