Total levy 81 mills.
Last year the total levy in this town
ship, city and school district was 1854
mills, making difference of 22t mills
in favor of this year. We are glad the
levies have been reduced, but there are
some Objectionable features. For in
stance, in the city we have fund OF
10 mills to meet all expenses including
those OF the water ditch. This will not
meet the expense and the fund mist
be replenished at some future time.
We have bond fund of 80 mills from
which no benefit is derived. In the
township there Is no road fund. In the
school district there is no interest fund.
The county general fund has been re-
duced one mill which means that if the
present enormous expense continues
county warrants will drop below par.
Out Of the 81 mills levy 464 mills go
to the bOndholders. In the city out of
total levy of 40 mills, 80 go to the
bOndholders. La the county out of a
total levy of 13a mills, IL 60 to the bond.

Greene County herald. (Leakesville, Miss.) 1898-current, 1899-01-26

When Queen Taitou, the wife of the
Negus Menelek, conqueror of the Ital-
ian troops in Abyssinia, arrives with
her husband and dusky but brilliant
escort in Paris even the gay Partisan
will no doubt marvel. Queen Taitou is
no less interesting than her husband.
When she appears in public she is &C
companied by many women, mounted
on richly caparisoned mules, with run
ners, umbrella bearers and other at
tendants. Taitou's umbrella is a
bright red. She is very stout, but with
all that her presence is dignified. She
is remarkably well informed on cur
rent topics and is charming CONVEX
sationalist. Her letters are well writ
ten and have a bright, natural style.
She does not dress any more richly
than her ladies in waiting, but she is
the very essence of cleanliness. The
empress believes thoroughly in court
etiquette and no one may gaze on her
unless he has been formally presented
to her.

Professional Window Washing.

A muslin bag filled with whiting and
two large chamois skins are used by
the professional workman who washes
the windows of stores and public build
ings. First the. glass is wiped with a
dry cloth to free it from dust. Then the
whiting is busted thickly over It; after
that it is wiped off with one of the
chamois skins, which is dampened, but
not wet. and lastly, the dry chamois
skin is used fnc polishing. Another
excellent method is to take a sponge
and dip it in alcohol, rub the glass
over quickly with this, wipe with a
newspaper and polish with a channels
skin. The wood alcohol Is used in
stead of the pure alcohol. and 1t is
cheaper and answers the purpose as
we'll. A little turpentine dissolved in
warm water is also excellent for wash
ing windows, mirrors or glass globes.
