a Novelty in Bicycles.

A novelty in bicycles went up Broad
way last week, says the New York Sun.
A young colored man o it and
showed off it's fine points in a way that
attracted a great deal Of attention. In
stead Of being stationary the handle
bar could be moved backward and for
ward. Every time the rider pulled the
bar back the bicycle shot forward in a
way that showed that it had some sort
of a rowing machine attachment which
worked in conjunction with the. pedals.
There were the ordinary pedals on the
bicycle, n the rider used these the
greater part Of the time, but every now
and then when the rider got in a tick
lish position among the trucks. cable
ears and other vehicles he would give
the handle bar a yank backward and
the wheel would dart ahead.

Uses of the Lichen

The lichen's most important function
seems to be to beautify the landscape.
though some tiny ones are utilized by
mother humming bird to cover the out
side of her nest, in order to conceal it
as much as possible. In Iceland the
lichen called Iceland moss is gathered
every year by the boys and girls. It is
boiled in milk and eaten. Fanny Ber-
gen, in her little book on "Plant Life"
tells us that the Indians guided them
selves through the trackless forests by
observing on which side Of the trees the
lichens grew thickest, those being the
northern sides.

HARVEY PEAK TAXES.

INDUCED in Of late by Pennington

Of the county commissioners in re-
fusing to grant the tax rebate ask
ed for by the Harvey Peak Tin
company, and the statement that
"the county could Just as we'll as

than it now has, has been harp

Illustration of county affairs.
Now, The UNION has no interest
in the matter further than getting
at the actual facts and showing
that in refusing the rebate asked
by the Harvey Peak company the
commissioners did the proper
thing and served the best intrests
of the county in SO doing. This
done, no blame can rest on the
county administration of affairs.
The amount of taxes due Penning-
ton county from the Harvey Peak
company is $19,233.22 and the
company generously offered the
sum of SIS, 500 in settlement of the
claim. The offer was refused, and
r1ghtfully so. Parties wanting
ground held by this corporation
have been paying the taxes against
the property and taking tax titles
to the land until the county has
realized something over $4,000
from this source. This sum, in
addition to the $500 offered
would have made something like
$4,000 paid had the county accept
ed the proposition made. Then
there would be a rebate Of about
1878. The county commission
ers acted wisely in refusing to
grant this rebate. The Harvey
Peak company has for a long time
desired to compromise this matter
by paying 50 per cent and calling
the thing squared, SO it is plain
ti.at the company has not intended
III square up its taxes in full. There
was no good eason why the the
county should grant this CORPORA
IN a tax rebate Of nearly

at the commissioners would have
ssanted j reasonable rebate, bu,
