Three More Burglaries Were Re-
ported Yesterday.


The festive burglar is still abroad in
the city and makes hay at all hours,
regardless of whether the sun or the
stars happen to be casting their reful-
gent rays into back doors.
For the past week scarcely a day or
night has passed without from one to
three burglaries being reported at po-
lice headquarters, but up to date not
one real, live burglar has been rounded
up and given berth in the city baS-
tile.
When the sun was high in the heav-
ems yesterday the residence of Mrs.
Lizzie Doyle, at 1870 P street, was
entered and robbed. The thief ran

with silver knives and spoons. Two
silver napkin rings, six orange knives
and silk muffier were also taken The
burglar visited one of the bed rooms
and turned things topsy turvy, but ev-
identity did not find anything suited to
his wants.
Entrance was effected through a door
IN an l. of the house. The thief cut a
hole near the knob with a knife, evil

RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.
Mrs. Chris. Wagner Had One Leg
Broken in Two Places.

Mrs. Chris. Wagner, who resides at
Thirteenth and P streets, met with a
painful accident last evening, resulting
in the compound fracture of one of her
legs.
1t seems that Mrs. Wagner and her
brother started after dark to drive to
the home of their parents, who live
some distance south of the city. When
they reached Sixteenth and T streets
their horse took fright at something,
became unmanagable and started to
run.
Mrs. Wagner became alarmed and
leaped from the buggy. She fell in
such a way that her leg was broken
in two places. She was found by peo-
pie living near by and taken to her
home, where the fractured limb was Set
by surgeon, and a couple of hours
later she was reported as resting COM
fortably
She did not know what had become
of her brother-whether he had re-
gained control of the horse, or whether
he, too, had met with an accident. The
fact that he had not returned to the
spot by the time she was removed in
dicated that the horse had carried him
far away or that the buggy had been
wrecked and he disabled

In every community there is certain to
be found coterie of persons who fit from

They are persons who have made a fail
ure in life; have become disgruntled and
morbid, and because their neighbOrs is
not so, they whisper from ear to ear that
''he drinks on the sly" that ''his wife is
a shrew," and that their home life is
just something awful" Oh! you 'whited

right have you to say aught of anyone?

TAX SALE CERTIFICATES.
The State Treasurer Explains the Meth
cd of their Redemption.

The redemption Of tax sale certihcates
has been a source Of so much trouble that
p State Treasurer James b. Whitfield has
nrepared the following instruction on the
subject. hoping that errors and trouble
may be avoided in the future:
"The law requires that all redemDtions
Of tax sale certificates within two years
next succeeding the date OF the tax sale
must be made through the clerk OF the
circuit court OF the county wherein the
land lies by paying to the clerk OF the
circuit court the amount for which the
land was sold, with interest thereon at
the rate Of 25 per cent. per annum, and so
cents redemption fees. When the cirtifi-
cate is held by the State 1t shall be the
duty Of the clerk to give the party so re-
deeming, a receipt for all the money paid,
and to forward forthwith to the state
treasurer all the money so collected, ex-
cept the redemption fee of 80 cents, and
the clerk shall notify the comptroller
what lands has been redeemed, and the
name of the owner, and what amount has
been received.
1.-THE state treasurer will, upon receipt
OF the money, cancel the certificates and
forward them to the clerk. The clerk
will, upon receipt of the certificates from
the treasurer. deliver them to the owner
or agent. creditor other person redeeming
the land, and take up his original receipt
for the moneys paid to him for redemp-
ton upon the list recored in his Office.
Section IS, chapter 1922, laws of 1895.
after the expiration of two years from
the date OF tax sales, the certificates Of
such sales held by the state must be pur-
chased from the state treasurer, under
section So. chapter 1929. laws of 1895, or
purchased or redeemed from the state
treasurer under section 1893, revised stat
utes. The payment of fees for the clerk
of the circuit court to the State treasurer
is not authorized in either case. The fees
of the clerk of the circuit court prescrib-
ed by law must be collected by him when
the certificate is presented to the clerk by
the holder under section 60, chapter 1922,
laws of 1885"
