 An Iowa dispatch states that Kate Shelly, who twenty years ago saved passenger train with 200 persons aboard from plunging through a broken bridge in the Des Moines river near Boone. is ill and in need. She is seeking a minor clerkship in the gift of the state legislature, which pays 5 a day, and as no one else opposes her, she will probably be chosen. She was a girl of 16, living in a small house within stones through of the long trestle bridge over the Des Moines river. when in a fearful storm one night the greater part of the bridge was swept away. She was alone with her aged mother and younger sister and she knew that the east-bound pas senger train was due at the other side of the bridge. Somehow she crept on her hands and knees across the broken timbers and Jagged the train. The railroad company rewarded her hand somely and with the money she re- ceived the girl was able to obtain an education at Simpson college, Indian ola. She now wishes to use her edu- cation to provide for her in her ad- vancing years.

The Danish West Indian Islands which the United States is about to purchase are three in number. Two of the islands, St. John and St. Thomas, lie eastward of Porto Rico. The third, St Croix, or Santa Cruz. lies south of the other two, at a distance of some thirty-five miles and southeast of Porto Rico. St. Thomas has an area of g. square miles; St. John 27 and Santa Cruz A. making a total of 13S square miles. The islands are. for the most part, perpendicular. The horizontal portions are rare. The soil is broken and volcanic. but vegetation is tropical and rich. The harbor of St. Thomas fa circular. and from a military point ot view perhaps very desirable. The city of St Thomas. once the commercial metropolis of the West Indies, is noly. in decay. The population is mixed. There are. perhaps. i5.OO0 inhabitants in the group, most of them being on Santa Cruz. the largest island. At least half are negroes.

WERE w: I NOT RltBATED
..Csmmissioaer cbsase Their Mind
ea Ihayef Taxes. ~

y In April, '96, the District court for Nor
risen county decided that certain taxes
which had been levied on that part. of
the city known as Thayer's Addition.
West side. had been iustlv and properly
levied, and that the same were not ex-
cessive. The supreme court Of the state
confirmed this decision, and judgment
for the amount of the taxes, interest.
penalties and costs was entered against
the lands. -. s>. * 4 ( =.. ~ -.
The addition ie owned BY G. w. Thay-
er Of Rochester, n. Y, and s. X. Thayer
OF Minneapolis. The amount involvedis
estimated at $4,000 to $4,000.
Various propositions for settlement of
this tax matter have been made, and in
every case the men who resisted paying
their taxes and went to law about it,
were to get great benefits from a cheap
settlement. while the city and county
were to suffer.
! Mesars. Thager made . proposition
to the county commiss, oners this week.
that they would pay 25 per cent Of back
taxes, penalties, and interest. to 1900,
and current taxes for the year: 1900.
That is, that the debt they owe the
county be scaled Is per cent, and as
token of good will, that they pay the
taxes for 1900, which they owe anyway
and will have to pay ultimately.
G.. A. Lindbergh appeared for the
Messrs. Thayer, and S. W. Thayer also
spoke. the attempt to show that the
lots were overtaxed appears strange in
view OF the supreme courts decision.
Other West side property owners have
been taxed in the same proportion. No
one ever heard OF their resisting pay
ment in court. The email property own
ers are not the ones who let their taxes
go for years, and then ask for rebates.
The practice of allowing
large property holders to avoid pay
ing taxes for yeare, and then to settle
for small per cent. of the total, is
vicions one and not approved b. the
people at large. ~. z: -. 49,.
6 County Auditor Harding was in favor
Of the Thayer proposition. After cons
siderable discussion. the board resolved
to accept the offer, Commissioner Gross
voting nay. To be of any effect, the
application, ,m1st be signed by at leaet
three commissioners before being sent to
the State audi+or. - 49,
" Nneu new. vi what WAS proposed to
be- done got out, good deal of indig
nation was shown oy citizens, which re-
suited in their appearing before the
board and vigorously objecting. City
Attorney Shaw made a strong speech
against the proposition. Among others
who expressed themselves against the
offer were J. W. Berg, T. F. Hosch, P.
Medved, Z. f. Vasaly, j. Kerich. who
but expressed the sentiment of the great
majority of business men aud citizens.
The arguments proved effective, for
some of tie commissioners said they
never would agree to the proposition,
and the resolution approving the offer
| Was reacinded. The commissioners were
satisfied that the sentiment OF the cit
izens was against the offer. as being not
only inadequate, but an injustice to
| people who do pay their taxes.
