A YOUNG WOMAN'S RUSE
Led to an Innocent Display of Her
Fathers Artillery.

Col I. N. Walker is the authority for a story
which, as he we'll says. is a very proper one for
the parlor and one which contains several sug-
gestions of value to young ladies who may occa-
sionally find themselves in a position requiring
the use OF diplomacy and TACT This story AYERS
that in certain place not very far away, and
at time not very long ago, there a young
man who came from distant city on visit to
of his friends, another young man who stood
high In the esteem of the community. The visit
ing youth was seriously afflicted with the am
bition of meeting some nice young lady of cul-
ture and refinement who might be matrimonially
inclined, and when his accommodating friend told
him of very handsome maiden of his acquain-
lance his soul fired with ardor and ne re-
solved to pursue his suit with energy. This
laudable purpose was strengthened perceptibly by
an incidental recital on the part of his friend of
the old gentIemans worldly possessions. and the
young man was on tenter-hooks until he OBJ
tanned introduction. The introduction OBJ
tanned, he lost no time but called the next
evening The events of that memorable evening
abide with him to the present day.
1t seems the pair were alone in the parlor for
something like a half hour when the ardent
youth threw discretion to the winds and essayed
a feat in OSCILLATION that was Indignantly re-
scented. Whether he received a blow of the hand
upon his features is matter of speculation, but
it is lite evident that there was some stamping
of dainty foot and a darling of fire from in
dignant eyes, for the young man was given thor
oughly to understand that If he did 1t again the
paternal parent would be informed. But the
threat fell on needless ears. for sooner il
made than the bold sutton once more attempted
his trick. Then ensued instanter. Out OF the
room swept the young lady and the young man
was left TO cogitate, but only for a brief space.
In the next room was the paternal parent, a
man who loved sporting above almost everything
else, and when his daughter entered he ex-
aiming double-barreled shotgun in fond and
doting manner. Said his daughter to him: PA,
there is young in the parlor who. like
yourself is much interested in hunting. wish
you would meet him. You might take your new
gun in with you, for know he would greatly
admire the pattern" Nothing could suit the old
gentleman better than this. he marched into
the parlor expecting to receive the enthusiastic
praises Of true sport. Bit in this expectation
he doomed to sad disappointment. The
young him coming and saw the gun
also. Exit by the door impossible and the
window offered the only hope for escape so out
he jumped with all his might and down the street
went flying as fast as his aroused fears for life
could make him. The old gentleman gazed on
this strange scene with bewilderment, but his
daughter had obtained point of vantage where
she glored reckessly in the success of her
ingenious contriving.

JUDGE CARTER CONSIDERS 1T.
Indiana Manufacturing Company
Mandamus Case.


Harry B. Smith, county auditor, appeared
in Room 3, Superior Court, yesterday morn
ing to show cause why he had not obeyed
the courts mandate requiring him to place
the State Tax Boards assessment against
the Indiana Manufacturing Company on the
duplicates Of the county. William T.
Brown, county attorney, appeared for the
auditor with an answer to the complaint of
the State. The answer pleaded the injunc-
ton issued by Judge Baker of the United
States Court. This injunction maintained
that the capital stock of the Indiana Manu-
featuring Company could not be taxed, be-
cause it represented patents.
The States representative filed a de.
murrer and the question was argued
straining order of the United States Court
is not effective as to the tax of 1897. The
State Tax Board made an assessment of
$500 900 against the manufacturing company
at the boards last sitting. This was done
on the appeal of Merrill Moores from the
action of the County Board of Review,
which declined to make the assessment
ton. The state board, after taxing the
manufacturing company, ordered the as
seSSment placed on the tax duplicates, but
Auditor Smith declined to carry out the
order as he had been enjoined by the fed
eral court. Two weeks ago a writ of man
date was procured in the Superior Court by
Merrill Moores, representing the State, and
assessment on the books appear at 10
oclock yesterday morning and show cause
why he had not done so. Judge Carter took
the question under adViSement.
