PAY YOUR TAXES.
They Are Due and Delinquent Accord
ing to Sheriff Hare's Warrant.

Yesterday was about the most quiet
day at the sheriffs office that has been
experienced since the tax books have
been thrown open. The previous day
was THE heaviest, and the boys wert
kept busy far into THE night balancing
their books. There seems to be an
Impression abroad that Sheriff Hare
has fun authority to extend the time
for collection Of taxes. This is not only
a wrong impression, but it will per-
haps be a surprise to the taX-pay1ns
public to know that g4 taxes are now
delinquent, and the sheriff has the
authority to go ahead and collect the
taxes of any individual by attaching
and selling whatever personal property
he can get hold of. The warrant is
sued by the county court to the sher-

Human Flesh Eaters.

In the northern part of Canada there
are still several Indian tribes who ate
human flesh. In Guiana and in the
Orinoco we still find Caribbeans who
have the honor of having furnished the
name for that terrible custom of eat
ing human flesh. Cannibal comes from
Caribs or Caribales, oorruptions of Cali
lis or Canibis, the name of the inhabit-
ants of the Antilles when Columbus ar
rived there. On the upper Amazon, be-
tween the rivers and the borders of the
Bolivia, live the Tupis Guaraniens,
who manifest liking for human flesh.
Cannibals are common in Australasia,
the Papuans, Karnkiens and Battakiens
being the most distinguished. Canni-
balism is, however, considered the main
trait of the New Hebrides. There are
more human flesh eaters in Africa than
anywhere else.
Cannibalism is not sign OF low
state of civilization, for many cannlbal
races stand higher in culture than those
who abhor the custom. Many cannibals
live in regions full of ordinary food, but
they prefer human flesh as delicacy
the men forbidding their wives ant
slaves to eat it. In northern Australasia
il seems that the dead are eaten. Herod
otus tells us that it was the custom il
India for the young to kill the old ant
eat them to insure their future saliva
ton, and we are told that the old folk
desire to be killed before they grow to-

also to be my adviser as to how to fur

here are some of the principal items OF
which it consisted: Two foutangs, or
thin mattresses, between which one lies
at night, and a makura, wooden pill

bedroom; a kibachi, or brass brazier,
with chopsticks to stir the fire with, and
a water kettle made the hall coy, and
a little lacquer table, foot square and
about 6 inches high, with couple Of
tiny little plates and bowl, made the
dining room quite complete and replete
with every comfort Two silk cushions
were placed in the sitting room for dis
tinguished guests to sit on.
"Ah," said to my servant, "but do

Nifty his subject, as the life of Mr.. Blaine
was full of dramatic material. and as
there were scenes in it which would be
especially serviceable for a drama of

use of personages who lived not long
before his time, and even of some who
were his contemporaries, and he gives
the names Of other playwriters who have
used their acquaintan.a s In their stage
compositions When reminded that even
the greatest and most picturesque Amer

Washington to those of Lincoln, had
never been used successfully for dramat-
10 material, as Shakespeare used the
kings of England, he replied that this

How Tom Fitch of Nevada Used to 'cRaiss
the Wind"
Tom Fitch of Nevada was q bright
fellow and one of the best writers and
stump speakers of the west but he was
thriftless, and when he got hard up
would resort to almost any means to
get stake.
One day he wrote soathing speech
denouncing Sharon, then president Of
the Bank of California and afterward
United States senator from Nevada. In
it he charged Sharon with almost every
crime known to the deoalogue or the
statutes. He put the manuscript in a
large envelope and walked into the
Bank of California.
'Here," he said to the cashier, hand
ing the package through the window,
''here are some securities which offer
as collateral on loan. Please hand
them to Mr.. Sharon in person, and 1
will wait for his answer. -"
Mr. Sharon was In his private office,

found the speech and read it through,

forming him that unless he was paid

reported that the collateral was all
right and paid the happy Fitch the de-
sired amount.
Three months afterward, having gone
through the money in speculation and
dissipation, Mr. Fitch made his appear
ance with another speech, this time Of
very mplimentary character, which
he promised to deliver at ever conven-
lent opportunity, for the same amount
That, too, proved good collateral, and
the story would have never come to
light if Fitch had not, in a moment OF
drunken frankness, told il himself 49,
