that a woman is a secondary factor in

BOOKS IN BAD SHAPE.
Hudson's Taxpayers Greatly Wrought

Hudson, Mass., Feb. AT n meeting
Henry W. Jackson was appointed tax
collector In place of Edward T.. Miles,
the dcfaultiug cX-taX collector, to COM
rlcto the work Of collecting the unpaid
taxes for the years 1897, 1905 and 1890,
which. ON Jan. 81. 1900. amounted to
$4,000. The work Of asccrtaning how
deep Miles is involved has just begun,
and the town officials say II will be no
easy task TO get the books In shape for
the new collector to commence his IL
hors.
1t Is said that good many tnHpay-
crs who have paid their taxes for the
years in question have destroyed their
receipts. and this causes much alarm
among them for fear they will be called
upon to pay them second time ann VIII
have nothing to show they have been
previously paid. On the other hand, 1t
is expected that there are taxpayers
who have not paid their taxes for those
years and will take advantage Of the
mXcd-up condition of the accounts
and make an attempt to cvadc paying
them, advancing the claim that they
had paid them as we'll us others, who
say thcy have lost their receipts.
Not few citizens are of the opinion
that the $91tiiG1 thus far found to bc

the shortage. The more carefully the
examination is made of Miles books,
the more deeply he is found to be in
