OBITUARY.

The people of Audubon were sur
prised and shocked to learn of the
death of Mrs. Jack Anderson at one
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Mary M. Baker was born January 81,
1856 and was married to John NJ.
Anderson at Mt. Pleasant January 80,
1873, Seven children were born to
them, Harry G. Samuel b., Frank p,
Bessie NJ, Grover g., Carl A., and
Otley A.
Mrs. Anderson had been ailing for
but short time and was not seriously
sick until a few days ago. Overwork
some three weeks ago is thought to
have been the indirect cause of death.
Mr.. Anderson was summoned from
Atlantic by telegram announcing his
wife's serious illness but did not learn
of her death until he reached here.

DEPUTY COLLECTOR UFFICE,
ALEXANDRIA, April 10, 1895

DEPUTY COLLECTORS OFFICE,
ALEXANDRIA, April 10, 1895
All persons liable to the income tax arc
hereby notified that unless their returns are
fled in the Collectors Office or at my office,
Custom House building, on or before April
10Th, 1895. that penalty of so per cent.
will be imposed upon them
In sending out blanks to persons, corpora
tions. companies or associations who 1t was
thought might come under the provisions of
the income tax law, it is likely some who are
subject to the tax have been overlooked, but
that fact will not exempt them from the oper-
alton of the law. They will not be allowed
to plead ignorance of the law, and will have
to pay heavy penalty for noncompliance.
"Only debts which were contracted during
the year 1894, and found in said year to be
worthless, and losses from the sale of bonds,
notes and other personal property purchased
in said year can be deducted from income as
worthless debts of losses actually sustained
in computing income for that year.
In all cases of wilful neglect or refusal to
make and render a list or return, as pre-
scribed by law, it is my duty to make such
list, aud to add SO per cent. as penalty to
the amount of tax due OH such list. In all
cases of wilfully false or fraudulent list or
return having been rendered it is my duty to
add 100 per cent. US the penalty to the
amount of tax ascertained TO be due.
l hope every one liable to this tax will file
returns on or before Monday, April Is, and
thereby save me very unpleasant duty.

AN INCORRECT RUMoR.-A rumor
was circulated this morning to The effect
that either George Stearns or James
Gift had been drowned from the
schooner Daniel Sheets off Bryan's
Point. The schooner belongs to Capt.
Polly Gibson and is run between this
city and Mr.. Theo. Ballenger's fishing
shore. The vessel left here yesterday
evening 10 charge of Capt. Robert
Posey and with Messrs. Stearns and
Cliff as the crew. When of Bryan's
Point at about 3 o'clock Stearns, who
was sewing up rent in the jib, was
thrown overheard by the breaking OF
fine rope on which he was standing, but
he wEs rescued after being in the water
fifteen minutes. Later the schooner
passed Capt. Enoch Davis's vessel on
her way up, and Capt. Posey hailed
her and announced that one of his men
mad fallen overheard. Those on board
of Capt. Davis's vessel, supposing a
man had been drowned from the Sheets,
reported the matter upon their arrival
here. The families of the two men
were much distressed upon hearing the
rumor, and it was great relief to them
when the Sheets reached here this
morning with all aboard we'll.

,.sF.sNENT CoMPLETED.-The cor
lien assessment for 1895 has been
ppSy''nnleted by the commissioner of rev.
Gnu o1a The increase as compared with
Gu, year amounts to $1100upon personal
.,s, and upon real estate Sl14 900.
P a fi>Qi including hank stock, the
a ~ OF personally was S1,022, 900.
IT, Tai. wear it amounts to 81 ,033, 900.
p .,I stale in 1894 was $3.50, 900, this
r rsr il amounts to $4,073,000. The
Commissioner was assisted in the prepa-
alton of the books and assessment by
5is DEPUTY, Mr.. c. II. Callihan, and
ay4ry square and section of the city was
isle aud the property and ownership
carefully examined into, and where
property had deprecated reductions
we're made and increases made where,
IN the opinion of the commissioner,
.Ich was Unsuitable. Maj. Duffey says
ihe assessment is one of the most correct
ever made, as much time and care has
baen given to correcting errors
which have from time to time
o,cur.ed. The assessment as a
whole is on fair low basis, and
though in many instances increases
might have been made, the present
wear, following as it does mouths of
business depression, was hardly the
time for any radical change. While the
increase is apparently only $4,000 it
i, really greater. As has been before
stated much that was erroneous has
been eliminated.

FRIGHTENED BY A LIoN.-Charies J.;
Thurman, Washington publisher, had
thrilling experience at the Geological
Park in Washington yesterday. he
had driven to the park with his wife
and Charles Rudd, a five-year. old boy,
who lives in this city. When Mr..
thurman alighted from the buggy one
of the lions roared, and the horse rear
ed and pranced, and started to run
away. Mr.. Thurman threw his arms
about the horses neck and tried to
hold the animal, but was lifted from
his feet and thrown to the ground.
The horse then trampled upon him,
and the carriage was dragged over
him, Mrs. Thurman caught the little
bow in one arm for fear that he would
fail out. and held the reins with the
other hand. A few moments later the
horse was caught by attendants at the
Zoo. and Mrs. FuSrman, who was al,
most on the point Of fainting, lifted
from the buggy. Mr. Fuhrman was
found to be badly injured. One thigh
was crushed and the bone broken. he
also received other injuries.
