AFTER BACK TAXES.
Suit Against the County of Co
gebic to Recover $4,000.

The case of Auditor General Dix
against the County of Gogebic, to
recover s54, 600, in back taxes, has
been on trial in the circuit court at
Lansing, the case having been called
Monday morning. OF the amount
sued for by the State about $40, 900
is for the expense incurred in calling
out the state troops to quell the
riots in TronwQod at the time of the
big strike of the iron miners in 1894.
Since that time the other taxes have
accumulated, the county evidently
trying to defer settlement as long
as possible. Ex-Attorney General
Maynard has. a job contesting the
case for the state, along with Judge
Hoyt, Of Grand Rapids.

NO STAMPS ARE NEEDED.
Revenue Department Makes a
Ruling for Fraternal Societies.

A decision of much Importance to
fraternal organizations throughout
the state was received by Deputy
Collector Sundstrom OF the internal
revenue Office recently, which modi-
fies ruling handed down some time
ago. Up to the present time all
orders upon the treasurer of socie-
ties were required to bear a 2-cent
Stamp, but in the future no stamp
will be required. Mr.. Sundstrom
says the ruling will save thousands
OF dollars to the societies. The rul-
ing was received in response to an
inquiry from the treasurer Of one of
the Masonic bodies. Replying the
commissioner of the department
says:
"You are advised that an order
for the payment of money, drawn
by an officer OF lodge or society on
the treasurer thereof, does not re-
quire to be stamped If presented for
payment directly to the treasurer
by the party in whose favor said
order is draWn, but if the order is
cashed by bank, or otherwise
negotiated and presented to the
treasurer for payment by party
other than the one in whose favor it
was originally drawn, it requires .
2-cent stamp. Therefore the orders
drawn on you, as treasurer OF a
lodge, if cashed by the bank and
charged to your account as treas
urer, requires 2-cent stamp.

Hon. Peter White, of Marquette,

Hon. Peter White, of Marquette,
has been selected to make collec-
tion OF copper specimens for the
Paris exposition in conjunction
with Senators Wolcott of Colorado
and Clark of Montana. The Michi-
gan College of Mines at Houghton
has been designated to collect all
general minerals coming under the
head of "native element.
Thursday of last week was the
fiftieth anniversary OF the founding
OF Marquette. The original party
of settlers landed there from Sault
Ste. Marie. in a Mackinaw boat.
There were twelve of them, the only
one who is now living being Hon.
Peter White. This party stopped
but one day, when its members
shouhered their packs and tramped
on to the mines, where they remain
Cu VII WOtd was tCCCiNCQ Vi ouC at
rival of second and larger party
headed by A. r. Harlow, one of the
members OF the company, and its
agent. Mrs. Harlow came with this
company, and with her, babe in
arms, was Mrs. f. o. Clark. 1t is
probable these two share the honor
of having resided longer in Mar
quette than any other women. The
name of the town was originally
Worcester, its founders having
hailed from that Massachusetts city,
but later it was changed to, Mar
quette. At time of settlement there
was an Indian village there of about
100 inhabitants which was presided
over by Chief Kaw-haw-gam. The
chief was quite wealthy in those
days, but is now living in poverty in
little house which was built for
him on the neck of Presquc Isle.
The chief is now more than 100 years
old.

The Prevalence of Appendicitis

Surgeons admit that % per cent
OF all cases of appendicitis will re-
cover without operation, but claim
that 9S per cent could be saved by
operating promptly on every case
as soon as discovered. This dis
closes debate Of great significance,
for physicians are 'disinclined to
turn all cases to the surgeon. Morris
has estimated that there are 200, 900
new cases of appendicitis discovered
each year in the United States. If
this is true, aud the surgeons are
right, As, 600 of them would, be ruth
lessly sacrificed under medical treat
ment But physicians assert {and |
wish ! knew whether truly or not)
that autopsies upon subjects that
have died from other diseases than
appendicitis show, old inharnmatory
processes about the appendix in
,one third of the cases; just as old
:tubercalods cicatrices are. found in
the lungs where tuberculosis has
never. been suspected. In other
words, .one-third of all coming to
the autopsy table, and BY inference
a large ,proportio1sof the population
have gotten well spontaneously from
