RECEIPTS DISAPPOINTING

They Are Millions Behind the Estimate
Made by Secretary Carlisle
washington, March 2S.-With two days
of March left, the government receipts
for the month have reached only $24,o00,-
600 They are not likely to exceed $685.
900, 900 for the entire month. The low re-
ceipts have been very disappointing to
treasury officials. who have been trying
to persuade themselves that the bust
ness which is reflected In government
receipts was materially improving. The
deficit for the year to date is $4,000, 900.
In April heavy interest payments fall
due, and with the present ratio of re-
eeipts, the deficit at the end of the fiscal
year may approximate $27,O00000. Sec
rotary Carlisle's estimate was $4,000, 600.

San Antoine, Nov. Z, 1896
The delinquent tax rolls for
the year of 1895 are now ready
for publications.
| wish to call your attention
to section 1S9 of the city Char
ter" which reads as follows:
THAT if any person shall fail,
neglect or refuse to pay the taxes
imposed upon him or her, and
his or her property within the
time prescribed by ordinance of
said city, the city collector shall
at once make out a delinquent
list of all persons who have neg
lected, failed or refused to pay
such taxes, adding thereto ten
per cent, as Il penalty for thus re-

foresight that it gets in it's work.
1t is the power to see things be
fore they hurt us that is required
not the seeing things to be hurt,
full after we are struck. Any
simpletOn can see that. 1t is the
province of a true wisdom to see
the hurt that is coming and avoid
it. This is the mission of a true

the trouble that is to come, as of
the trouble that has come, with
this difference, that the trouble
to come is wisely avoided. Again
the admOnitiOn comes to you all;

ELECTION SPARKS.

Let's have straight, honest pol
tiles in the city election.
Throw the Indian vote out and
Judge NOOnan is elected.
How is it when the election of
ticers take too much booze?
How many registration certifi-
Gates did the Slayden crowd buy?
AS quick as the smoke of battle
blows away the city battle will
begin.
How is it when the election of
ticers suspend the count and go
to bed?
Judge NOOnan was slaughtered
in the house of his friends, and
this is no lie.
Some of Judge NOOnan's cam
paign funds fell on mighty rocky
ground; it brought forth no votes.
Had the people of Medina
known that Slayden was the A. p
A. candidate the result would
have been different.
Judge Maxey's opinion on the
indian citizen case is looked fol-
with interest. Why can't the
Judge give it to us at once.
| There was less money spent
with the newspapers than at any
previous county cOmpaign and
more went to buying voters.
The fusion business helped to
beat Judge NOOnan. There was
too much fusion for the silver
men to swallow.
Does anybody know of any
money being used to influence
voters at the election; if so who
used it?
The oath of office must be
changed or we will have to stop
personal politics; it is too uncOm-
Portable to take.
The candidates who were not
elected wont have to take the
oath of Office-they can have this
much to feel easy about.
There are numerous candidates
for mayor spoken of, among them
Hon. James p. Newcomb ais a Re
publican candidate, Hon. G. X.

cant help thinking that Judge
NOOnan's committee made a very
bad fight,
The refusal to accept the
judges proposed by the Republi-

ity sufficient to throw ont some

Judge NoOnan must be beaten
fairly or there will be a terrible

enough fraud and crookedness
reported to throw out precincts

much for personal politics.

Her Immediate Release.

London, Nov. T.-Mr. Walter NJ Castle,
of san Francisco, whose wife was sentenced
yesterday to three months imprisonment

SHE FACED THE BURGLAR.
Young Georgia WOman's COOlncss
Probably Saved Her life

Atlanta, Ga, Nov IA cool robbe<
Peachtree street, wednesday morning
Miss May Bridge was sitting in the parl9r
reading. She happened to glance up and
saw a big negro walk compoSedly cut Of
the sitting room into the hall. In one hand
he carried small package, and in the other
was glistening dagger.
Miss Bridge vas at first somewhat
startled. but soon regained her composurc.
With remarkable courage she walked WITH
determined resolution out of the parlor and
faced the negro i'll the hall.
For a moment Miss Bridge and the big
negro stood face to face in the hall.
Neither spoke. The silence was broken by
the young lady, who asked the outlaw whnt
he was doing there. He replied very alb
rupuy that he was looking for Mr.. John
son. and wanted to know if he lived tn re.
Miss Bridge stated that she knew no such
person, and ordered the negro out of the
house
The burglar hesitated for a moment, as
If contemplating whether to use the deadly
weapon he held in his hand, and then
turned and walked deliberately down the
hall to the rear door. Here he had left his
umbrella. II e picked it up and preceded
down long flight OF steps into Harris
street. AS soon as he struck the pave
:nent he ran toward Courtland street and
disappeared
He entered almost every room on the
first floor, except the parlor, where Miss
Bridge was sitting, and the kitchen, where
the servants We're at work. He had en-
tered Miss Bridges room on the first floor,
and had stolen her fine gold watch from
the dresser. A silver heart filled with
small trinklets of variousvaiues and priced
very highly by Miss Bridge, was also
missing. They We're evidently in the pack
ie1 in, t.;e
he confronted Miss Bridge in the hall
The most mysterious part of the whole
affair is that out Of the large number of
servants employed in the house no one
saw the thief enter and no one saw him
leave except Miss Bridge.

husband is imprisoned as a relon in French
prison. Goedekc WAS Il lieutenant in the
German army when lie met and fell in love
with Mrs. Goedeke. an American girl in
London. about six Years ago.
The rules of the German army prevent its
Officers from marrying foreigners, so the

ried and went to France, where he en-
gagged in a small manufacturing business.
One night the factory burned down and
Goedeke and his wife wercarrested, charged
with arson.
The trial resulted in an acguittal of the
wife and ten-year sentence for the nus
band. Mrs. Goedeke then came to this
country.
