FIFTY YEARS In ONE CHOIR.
Three Men at Age Of 20 Give up Their
Places.

After having sung for SO years in
the same church choir continuously,
missing very few services, Daniel
Shaaber. Jacob Shaaber and James
Hill sent in their designations because
their voices were possibly not as good
as the large congregation had reas
enable right to expect. These singers
are now nearly 10 years old, but are
still young and active in mind and
body, and they still can sing In a
manner that is wonderful to those
who hear them. The brothers Shaa-
Der say that the vocal organs of the
throat hold out as well, possibly better
than the eyes, ears, arms or limbs Of
the human body if they are properly
exercised and taken care of. They
experience no difficulty ia singing
right along with the younger folks In
the choir, but they now desire to quit
because they imagine the congregation
may want to hear new voices, writes
a Reading, Pa, correspondent of the
New York Sun.
They have sung to five generations
in the church and have kept it up SO
regularly that thousands of people
have been more than surprised. The
Shaabers sang tenor and Mr.. Hill bass.
Beside singing in the choir for half a
century OF years they also sang at
church festivals and private gather
ings OF the congregation, always with
out charge, as the church had no paid
choir, and the singers of1iciated as a
labor OF love. Being comfortably sit
uated In life, they desire no reward
from the church.
The church officers held meeting,
refused to accept their designations
and consented to relieve them of ac-
tive service In the choir, but reserving
their places as long as they live, SO
that whenever they wish to occupy
seats in the choir gallery their chairs
will be there and their services will be
gladly received. The semi-centennial
of their connection with the choir will
be celebrated on December next, and
the occasion promises to be notable.
The brothers Shaaber in reality joined
the choir 81 years ago. Daniel Shaa-
Der was leader for 80 years.

fact that the Office will open as late

To tax railroads ON their gross
earnings or not to tax them was the
question in the House yesterday.
Anda wide difference on this question
caused the consideration of the Revenue
Act by the House to end up in what bids
fair to be a memorable fight over the
question of taxing the gross earnings OF
railroads.
This is provided for in sections 80, 60
81 and 62 These sections the House
had adopted without opposition and had
skinned blithely along to the end OF
the chapter. This reached, Mr.. Julian
of Rowan, said he was absent when these
sections were adopted and he moved tc
reconsider the vote by which they
passed.
The motion to reconsider prevailing
he sent up an amendment striking out
these sections.
Speaking to this amendment, Mr.. Ju
liam said the proposition to tax the gross
earnings OF railroads was unwise anC
unjust.
I'VE don't want to cripple these cor
porations. They have come here and de
veloped the State and I'm opposed tC
coming here now and trying to tax then
cut of existence"
Mr., Thompson, of Onslow-"We'vC
taxed all other corporations, why not the
railroads? What is there about then
that we should make an exception il
their case? Why shall they enjoy spe
cial privileges not accorded TO others?
Mr.. Julian-"Have you exempted rail
roads from an ad valorem taxi"
Mr.. Thompson-"No Now a question
to you. Have You voted to exempt Other
| corporations from a tax on their gross
earnings, as you would have us do il
the case of railroads."
Mr.. Julian-"No."
Mr. Thompson-"You put tax like
this on toll gates. bridges, insurance
companies and the like Why except rail
roadsT'

Mr. Willard, of New Hanover, couldn'
see why railroads shouldn't be made t.
