A Bold Volunteer.

AT the recent camp fire of Seth Will
liams Post, Captain G. w. Butler of
the Signal Corps, told a good story re-
garding the incompetency of many of
the officers of the volunteer army.
Though the captain is one of the vol
unteers, he recognizes that there are
many in the ranks who are not COM
petent. He attributes this greatly TO
the fact that many get in who are
placed there by political backing. 1t
was while he was at Washington in
the camp there, that he saw a young
second lieutenant, who was in slick
looking uniform, and he was going
about saluting every private he met.
The captain disliked to speak of it, as
the young officer was stranger. and
not of his command, but he could not
bear to see the little fellow made sport
of by the men, who were having bar
rels of fun. The captain took him 10
one side and told him it was not right
to salute the privates, and made the
point clear. well, / don't know any
thing about this soldering anyway"
walled the little officer, Uncle John
and papa got me into it and now l am
going to make them get me out"

Bills Against the Volunteer Aid Fund
Being Paid.
Savings Bank Tax Made Smaller by Increase
In Value Of Securities.

Bank Examiner Undertake and his
force are employed in getting the returns
OF the savings banks, trust companies and
loan associations in readiness for the
State assessors. The returns of the
banks were made up, from last Satur-
days standing. and they are coming in
now as fast as they can be handled One
sof the tasks is to go through all these
returns and determine upon the market
value of the different securities. The
treasurers of the bank merely indicate
the sort of securities and the amount OF
each, according to par value, and Mr.
Undertake finds the market value Of
each different security
Inc value of the greater part Of these
securities has increased in value in the
past six months. This makes no differ
ence on the tax in regard to those secur-
tiles acquired since 1898, not exempt from
taxation outside the State 1t does how
ever make the tax lighter when it comes
to the matter of securities OF this State.
The tax as made up is not on the deposits
alone, but really upon the franchise for
conducting business in the State and the
tax Is upon the average amount Of depos-
its, the reserve fund, and the undivided
profits. From this is deducted the Uni
ted States bonds which are not taxable
and these are estimated at their marke.
value. So it can be seen that the higher
the market value OF the bonds, the more
there will be to deduct from them to be
taxed. Beside the United States bonds
that are deducted. are other things, as
the shares of certain corporation stock
which are by law exempt from taxation
and also the real estate of the bank
which, of course, is taxed in the town or
city where it is owned. Then an amount
and investments acquired previous to 1898
In the latter case all sorts of security.
whether it be Maine or otherwise, are
reckoned. and the higher the market
value, the greater the one-seventh in dol
lars to be taken from the total.
On all security acquired since 1893, that
is of the nature of money loaned to per-
sons doing business in this State, invest
ments in mortgages in Maine and New
Hampshire real estate, securities of this
State, or bonds of corporation of this
State, twN-sevenths of the amount is de-
Quoted. OF course in estimating this two
seventies the market value is reckoned,
and taken from the grand total.
1t is then perfectly plain that while the
banks benefit by the increase in the Sc
curities of the nature explained the
State gets smaller tax, which though 1t
amounts TO no great sum, is of enough
consequence to be of interest to know
what makes the difference when the as
sessment is made. - @s $50

he Thought there would be just about
enough of the money to pay the outstand-

tire list will be submitted to the public
by General Richards and Chaplain Cum
mings, SO that all may see exactly what
the money that they contributed to as
sist the i'll of the LIST Regiment, was used
for. Not only was the money used for
the LIST Regiment ill. but after they We're
well, General Richards had it devoted to
the use of the battery men who were i'll
with the fever. He saw that there would
be money left, and knew the people cared
not whether itswere member of the 1st
Regiment or member of the battery, so
long as it was used for the same purpose
that of assisting in the recovery of
Names volunteers.
Should there be a little surplus after the
bills are all paid doubtless some of 1t
may come in handy later. as all of
