been engaged 80 any actresses; that
he is not a spendthrift and has not
been as notorious as reports would
make him.
MI. Zimmerman stated that he had
received word that his daughter was
or her way to America, that he would
attend the meeting of the directors
of the Southern railway mex Tuesday
and then go to New York to await her
arrival. He had only the kindest words
to say of his daughter and of what
ever she may have done. The duke of
Manchester has met Mr.. Zimmerman
at the seaside in this country, M is
not a stranger to his wealthy father
in-law.

blegram from his daughter
mo their morria ore last week. and he
cabled back his blessings. Some three
years ago a cousin of the duke spent
q month here as the guest of Miss
Zimmerman and as the representative

MISSOURI a NEWS.
Mortgage Amendment.

Says a dispatch sent from Kansas
City: The law firm of Hark1ess,
O'Grady & Crysler, have notified THEN
banking clients that the mortgage
amendment, just carried in the cleo
tons, is not worth the paper it is
written on. They discovered that the
enabling act passed in 1895 was never
finished by the trainers of the bill.
The last section specifically directs
attention to the need of special legis-
lation governing the method of levy
ing assessments, but abruptly ends
without making the provisions. This
section reads: I'm case of debts so
secured (meaning by mortgage, etc.),
the value of property affected by such
mortgage, deed of trust. or contract,
less the value of such security, shall
be assessed and taxed to the owner
of the property, in the manner here
matter to be provided by law"
No such was ever provided
for, and as a result there will be, if
the governor issues his proclamation
announcing the adoption of the
amendment, a law on the books with
no means of carrying it out.
