suburban and agricultural is left to the

discretion OF the assessors.
In Allegheny all closely built up
neighborhoods are in the city property
classification and only the property
that Is distinctly suburban escapes the
full levy. There Is no agricultural
property to spean of within the city
limits. the whole area of the city being
only about one-third that of Scranton.
one source of increased revenue Will
be In the change of the system Of
collecting delinquent taxes. This Is
all attended to by one collector who
does the work by contract and at no
expense to the municipality. He Is al
lowed as a fee the five per cent pen
atty and he must make good every
penny Of the duplicate. This will
moan the saving of many thousands of
dollars annually to Scranton.
PAID IN 1NsTALLMENTs.
General city and school taxes-there
is no poor taX--are paid to the treas
urer in two equal installments in
March and September. BY paying the
whole amount in March rebate of
five per cent is allowed OH the second
installment. This results in the big
taxpayers coming in early and does
away with the possibility OIL the city
having to borrow funds to tide over
the summer and fall as is sometimes
made necessary here by the fact that
taxes can usually be paid without pen
atty at any time before the first OF
the year. Water is paid for at sched-
uled rates that are about the same
as in Scranton.
Allegheny has Il business tax of one
mill on the dollar of sales and a IL
cense tax on busses. street cars and
the like. 1t has decided, however, to
follow the example Of Pittsburg and
do away with the business tax, as it
was found that the Allegheny manu-
facturers and like institutions, were
removing their offices to Pittsburg, and
some factories were refusing to locate
there at all on account Of the tax ana
going to some other Pttsburg suburb
where they would be more favored in
this regard.
A. residence property In the suburbs
of Allegheny valued at $4,000 pays for
city purposes a little over 1872 mills
on tWO-third basis. This includes
poor tax. The school tax depends on
the assessment made by the sub board
of the ward in which it is located 1t
varies all the way from the fraction
of mill to eight or nine mills. Be
sides this there is q general levy for
school purposes amounting to about
three mills. This latter is for the
maintenance of the high schools and
the payment of salaries of officers and
teachers and the cost of books. sup
plies and the like. The sub boards
levy tax SOLELY for The construct ion
and maintenance of buildings.

Three Large Factory Buildings to Be
Erected,

Several contractors of the city are
furnishing figures to the Niagara Falls
Power Co. for three new buildings to
be erected on the company's lands.
The contractors do not know whether
the buildings are for three different
firms or whether they are for one firm
whose process requires the three build
ings. The bids are preliminary and

company. is considering them. Mag

The same work is now done in
Scranton-leaving aside the public
charities Experimentation S44,27O. Add
Scranton's share of the cost OF admin
istering public charities and the total
will be in round numbers $4,000.
POLICE MAGISTRATES.
The five police magistrates provided
for under the second-c class law pay
FOR themselves. In Allegheny one is
paid $500 and the other four $50 apiece.
How Scranton's revenues will be af-
fected by the change in government is
difficult to arrive at even approXi-
mately. With liquor licenses increased
from $500 to H,1O0 apiece it would mean
the doubling Of the revenue of $75,OOO
from that source IL the number of
dealers remained the same, but as most
OF the liquor men complain that they
can Ill afford to pay the present rate
OF license it is fair TO presume that
very decided decrease in the number
of licensed dealers will follow the in
crease in license fee.
The general city tax would, of course.
have TO be increased TO meet the in-
creased expenses, whatever these will
be shown to be when the ordinance
adopting the new charter and prescrib-
ing the offices and salaries is passed.
The increase would have to be made
by Encouragement of the valuations.
Under the second class city law all
property is assessed at its actual value.
City property pays taxes on the full
valuation. suburban property on two
thirds of the valuation and agricultural
property on a one-half basis. The

and suburban property and between

and before he knew what he was doing

him off at full gallop. There was a

She spoke so kindly that Mr.. Bowser
recovered his good nature, and 20 min
utes later he was with tho boy holding
n horse In the alley. II was a, soft,
moonlight evening, and the unpaved
alley was clear of vehicles and just the

Mr.. Bowser doubted IL; but, looking
over the back fence, he made out Mrs.
Bowser standing at one of the rear
windows. she had referred to
bounce" and "joggle," and he felt that
he was being tested. He drew a long
breath, uttered n silent prayer and
chirped to the horse to strike into a
lope. The horse obeyed. Had the
rider caught the motion 1t would have
been plain sailing, but he didn't catch
1t. There were half q dozen bobs,
three or four clutches at his name, and
Mr. Bowser rolled sideways out Of the

couraged him to try again. The fallen
rider kicked at the ash heap and struck
at the fence and was for giving 1t up,
but the boy soothed him and made
him understand that he would lose
prestige If he failed to mount again.

Bowser In defiant tones as he noticed

Mr.. Bowser had another climbing
match. but In due time he found him
self filing the saddle again. Prudence
warned him to go slow, but when he
thought of Mrs. Bowser and the cook
he determined to run all risks. AS he
