The herald., 1896-07-12

asked for q poker story some time ago
he had no personal experience, but
raked out of his box of stories tale
that he sometimes tells over the dinner
table.
The genial railroad magnate said he
was in a small town in Massachusetts
where a celebrated poker ring was ope-
rating. The central figure was an &C.
centric farmer nearly 80 years old, who
had played poker since he could hold
card. He was extremely wealthy, but
always refused to settle until the game
was finished, when he would give checks
for the amounts of his losses. The game
had been in progress for several hours.
and the old man had raked in a tre-
mendous amount of cash.
An excitable young man about 20
years old was the victim of the evening.
He had lost every cent he had in the
world-some $300-which had all found
its way to the old mans pocket
Then the luck turned. He held four
aces. The old man had four kings. The
betting ran so high that the other play
ers dropped out of the game. In less than
ten minutes $500 was on the table. When
the hands were shown the young fellow
was jubilant, but the fates were against
him.
The old man drew out his check book,
called for pen and some ink, and then
dropped dead. The young mans money
paid for the funeral.-New York World.

A Withdrawal

nounce his withdrawal from the race for
assemblyman. Not having resided in
the state three years, he was ineligible
for the position. He had felt sure of max

self an indomitable worker. He can well
afford to wait, and we doubt not he will

of snow on the ground and q corpulent

that there is not quite as much old

rily peaceful and peaceable country

4 BOSTON NOTION.

Fairer and more effective taxation
Quincy Of Boston and the Merchants
Municipal committee in that city have
devised a scheme of taxation looking to
the substitution of an inheritance tax
for the present uncollectible tax on per-
sonal property. This scheme is severe
ly criticised by Thomas Hills, of Bos-
ton, an ex-president of the Association
of Massachusetts Assessors, and the
criticism has general interest. Mr..
Hills contention is that the committee
is wrong, both in it's estimate of the
personal property in Massachusetts and
in the belief that all of it must, at some
time, go through the Probate court.
With twenty-five years of experience
as an assessor, Mr.. Hills estimates the
personal property in the State as being
worth two billions of dollars The COM
mittees estimate is a billion and half
more, or, as Mr.. Hills points out, a
sum in excess of the national debt of
Great Britain. Personal property can
only escape Probate court fees by pass
ing from one hand to another as a
gift, a proceeding SO unnatural, the
committee says, that very little prop
erty would escape taxation in that
way. But Mr. Hills knows of two cases
where the observation-disclosures tax
was defeated by ante-mortem gifts, and
he knows enough of the value of some
recently probated estates to be conf
dent that the beneficiaries were not
compelled to await the reading of the
will for the knowledge of at least a
part of the amount they We're to re-
ceive. There are other ways, he says,
in which the tax could be lodged. A
man might keep his stocks and bonds
in a safe-deposit vault beyond the
State boundaries, the key TO which
could be given to a trusted son at his
death; or fictitious debts could be ere
ated for heirs or legatees, and to their
amount defeat the tax.
These objections appear to be sound.
a scheme of taxation that couldn't be
circumvented would be hard to invent.

THE TAXING or BICYCLES.

Look out for the bicycle when the bell
rings and especially when it doesn't
ring. 1t is whirling on, conquering and
to conquer. 1t now appears that there
is doubt about the right of municipal
tiles to tax the bicycle. Two cases are
reported. One was that of Mobile, Ala
bama, and another that of Easton, Ma
ryland. In each case a tax of 81 per
wheel was declared. At Mobile a per-
manent injunction from the Supreme
court of the State was secured on an
appeal to that body. At Easton the
Circuit court declared the ordinance
void. Judge Stumps opinion in the
latter case, among other things, declar-
ed as follows: The commissioners of
Easton unquestionably have the right
to regulate the manner of using bicy-
Giles: to prohibit their use on the side
walks; to reasonably limit the rate of
speed; to require lights at night. ETC.
But. in my opinion, this particular or
dinance is most unreasonable, the OPP
posite of beneficial to the town, and in
consistent with "the laws and policy Of
the State" The general policy of the
State is that the citizens of a town, and
all strangers who may happen to pass
through or reside therein, shall at their
pleasure have the right of free passage
over the streets of said town, either on
foot or in ordinary private vehicles. A
bicycle Is a vehicle in general use. AS
such it has received legislative recogni-
ton and protection. If they have the
power to pass the ordinance under con-
sideration, then it most logically fol-
lows that they have power to require
the owners of all private vehicles
drawn by horses, or pushed by the
mother or nurse, to take out a license
before the vehicle can pass through
Easton; and also have the power to re-
quire every person who walks in or
through the town of Easton to take out
a license and have painted on his or
her person, or permanently and con-
spicuously attached to his or her per-
son or clothes, number corresponding
to the license
This seems reasonable and will con-
tinue to do so until something little
more reasonable is said on the other
side.

THOSE FUNNY COLLEGE BOYS

Knowing the horror with which the
average policeman regards a college
student, several University of Penn
sylvania students started out to have
some fun with the bluecoats on Thurs
day night. They purchased a barber
pole from a retiring tonsorial artist,
and Immediately upon getting possess
ion Of it dashed like mad along Wood
land ave. Just as they neared Fortieth
St, burly bluecoat, seeing a chance
to make his reputation, commanded the
supposed thieves to halt Without be-
ing accused Of anything they yelled in
chorus: 1--WE didn't steal the pole IN
deed we didn't" This declaration
naturally caused the officer to think
otherwise, and with drawn club he
marched them off to the patrol box. AT
ter being taken to the station house
under protest, they produced the re-
ceipt for the barber pole and were
allowed their liberty, much to the dis
gust of their captor Not being satisfied
with the success of their scheme thus
far, the frolicesome students repeated
their antics on Lancaster ave, and were
again arrested, and proved their in
nocence as before. After performing
the same trick in other districts their
scheme was discovered by a police SER
geant, who telephoned to all the stations
in West Philadelphia instructions not
TO arrest any crowd seen running with
q barber pole. This mysterious order
is causing much food for thought by
the knight of the locust west of the
Schuylkill-Philadelp Record.

A position recently taken by the In
diana Supreme court is radically oppos-
ed to the theory that is supposed to I'M
derlie railroad legislation in many of
the States One of the towns in In
diana had endeavored, by an ordinance
with q penalty clause, to compel rail-
road company to maintain gates and
fiagmen at four places in the town
where the railroad tracks crossed
streets at grade. The railroad com
pany ignored the ordinance, and the
Supreme court sanctions it's opposition.
Under the law, the court says, a town
limit the speed of trains passing
through its limits, and maintain gates
and fiagmen. at the street crossings,
but it cannot require a railroad COM
pany to maintain such safeguards. The
railroad is liable in damages, the court
continues, TO any one who, without
fault on his part, is injured by the neg
Iigence of the railroad at such cross
ings. But here the responsibility of
the railroad company ends. Its rights
and those Of the citizens, as TO cross
ng the streets, ARE mutual" the rail-
road being ION an equality with the

Aside from the general use of furs,
the prevalence of high collars spreads
a general look of coziness, and when,
as in this picture, the outer cloth col
lar was slashed to permit an inner
astrakan collar to show, the appear
ance of warmth becomes convincing.
A strip of the fur, too, showed in a
narrow vest, bringing to the observers
mind all the warmth of an entire fur
under bodice. So though the strip was
all there was to it, a big effect was
created by it. Furriers have never be-
fore this winter stopped so low in max

sian green velvet was the material of
this bodice, whose fronts We're slashed
and edged with black silk braid, which
was also used for the tabs that gave
military finish. At the back the braid
initiated a figaro. At the neck there
was a gold clasp set with Jewels, and
similar ornament on the hat brought
both into the same general scheme
