Personal Property Of Corporations May be Held
for Taxes.
Some months ago NJ. j Sherwood,
acting as attorney Tor the township
treasurer OF Onota township, in Algcr
county, levied ON a lot Of coal belonging
To the North Western railroad at Ne
gaunec. The levy WAS made TO enforce
the collection Of taxes on lands which
the road owned in the township but on
which IL refused to pay its assessment.
This is the first instance where the per
sonal property of railroad was ever
levied ON for its hand taxes, and the
roads attorney claimed the seizure Of
personal property for such taxes was
Illegal. The ease was taken To the
supreme court, which has just handed
down decision upholding the course
taken by the attorney for the township
treasurer and thus giving townships n
better hold on delinquent corporations
which refuse To pay their taxes -Mar.

Two Wheeling district buyers have
been in the market for ore in the week

OF Gogcbic and Vermilion Bessemers
have been taken. There have also been
some sales, in moderate lots, OF non
Bessemer ores, portion OF them Tor
shipment TO Central and Eastern Penn
sylvania. Yet the accumulation OF
1896 ore and the stocks ut the mines
are 80 great TINT the year will be one OF
much curtailed operation nc the mines.
Every week brings some new reduction
Of working force, and IL Is already plain
that some properties whose resumption
is anxiously awaited by the miners will
not get chance TO run this year. Some
absurd stories, involving the Rockefeller
and Carnegie names, have been set
anoat for outside consumption, and the
dispatches have given the impression
that the Rockefeller feet is carrying all
the ore this year that because oi this
fleet Of, say, 1900 900 tons carrying
capacity, the traffic Of the lakes,
amounting to more than fifteen times
that tonnage, is at n standstill. II Is
sufficient TO say OF these stories and oI

tion Of ore 10y one Pittsburg interest
that the Rockeieller-Carncgie program
was fully exploited months ago, and il

Her American Sweetheart.
A friend OF mine from New York,
who was visiting in the city last win
ter. became engaged 70 o young woman
belonging To one Of the old families,
says a writer In the Cosmopolitan. EN-
cepting a few moments chat with his
sweetheart at the low bay window on
the street the young man ia question
had never spoken one word alone 10 his
fianoee. To an American. especially =
New Yorker, this peculiar state OF af-
fairs was inexplicablc and the warmer
his affection grew the more uncomfortable
became this restraint. Finally, one
evening when the object OF his dnvo-
tion was left alone ia the window, mann
ma cxcusing herself for moment TO
obtain a drink OF water. nothing seemed
more natural TO him than that his hand
should seek hers. Before the poor fell
low had been able TO give it that gentle
pressure which 10 lovers means more
than n thousand words his sweetheart,
shocked beyond expression, rushed
away from the window crossing her
self. as is the custom of the women
at the FIRST indication of the approach
OF the dread earthquake or any other
danger or evil.
The next evening when the amazed
American attempted TO explain that an
engaged couple in his country were
permitted not only 10 clasp hands but
even TO kiss each other, the young
woman vowed that she would never
leave the peaks Of the Andes for such

fcctly well. The attacks commenced
from tickling sensation arising from
the toes OF the left foot. The patient
would fall TO the ground, where he could
lie down. At the height Of the attack
the patient first smiled and then
laughed aloud without any apparent
causc for the excessive mcrrimcnt. The
entire act occupied about two minutes.
