The Tax Extension .

The time for the payment of taxes
has been extended after all. AS thing
now stand the taxpayers VINO have fail
ed tc ceme to time will have until Feb.
/ to do 50. Friday morning the special
commission in whom is vested the right
to extend the time, consisting Of the
governor, the comptroller general and
the attorney general met and it was de
cided to extend the time till the day
named. The State says this action was
the result Of the action Of the house in
adopting the Ashley resolution provid-
ing for the extension uutil March l..
The commission has ben strongly
against any extension this year, but the
legislature seemed determined to pro
vide for one. The comptroller asserted
tnat an extension till March l would tam
gle up the books all over the State that
it would be serious matter. The So t
was the action taken Friday, shich,
it is said, will prove satisfactory to the
senate. Those who have failed to pay
their taxes will be glad to hear Of this
action, but every treasurer aud au litcr
will hear Of it with regret.

D.spoadent because her love for Mrs.
John White must be condoed within
the bound of friendship, Miss Katherine
E. Gorham, cf Wichedoa, Mass, com
mitted suicide Wednesday evening BY
shooting herself in the hesd while slt
ting in q room with her mother. The
iufstuation dates back two years, when
they lived in adjoining houses. The
intimacy was not pleasing to Mrs. Cor
ham, but there seemed no way to stop
it. Last fall, when Miss Gorham went
to Boston to study elocution, Mrs.
White hired room there so as to be
near her friend. About a year ago Miss
Gorhau went to ssnitarium in Phila-
delpnia for treatment for a mental
trouble, and came back apparently
cured. Miss Gorham was 81, the only
daughter of Mrs. Marian CONAN,
Grove street, editor and proprietor Of
the Winchendon Courier. Miss Gorham
spent the greater part Of the day with
Mrs. White, going with her to her home
on Linden street. Mr.. White, who did
not approve Of the intimacy between
the Yo men, ordered Miss Gorham out Of
the house. She weot direct to store
and b yught revolver. She had gone to
the Hotel Winchendcn and hired a
room, to which she was accompanied By
Mrs. White. Tney remained In the
room uatil 7:30, when they left for
their respective homes. Arrangements
for the funeral will not be completed
uotil the arrival of Mrs. Gorbau's sister,
Mrs. Smith, from Philadelphia. White

A Fine Job.

Two park laborers sat on the curb
stone Of the Eastern Parkway in
Brooklyn eating dinner out Of their
pals, for it was the noon hour, and
discussing their surroundings IN a
brogue which suggested that they had
MT been over very long. One Of them
fell to admiring the Museum Of Arts
and Sciences, which stands back from
the Parkway.

"an' solid enough put up to last for

A Tornado's Freaks.

John r. Nusick of Kirksville, Mo-,
thus describes, in the Century, certain
madcap pranks of tornado which
passed through tht city.
Many strange freaks were played
by the tornado. In g. ree-top was
found Woman's hais, supposed to
have been torn from her head as she
was carried through its branches, yet
no person was found near it. A human
scalp was found three miles from the
city limits, under bridge. Notes, let.
ters, and papers were blown from the
city into Iowa, and found ninety miles
away. One promissory note Of 500
was found n a field near Grinnell,
Iowa, nearly 100 miles away, while
clothing and papers were scattered
along the entire distance.
"One woman was decapitated by q
tin roof, and her child was killed near
her. Some persons who were outside
the rotating current were killed or In
iured by flying timbers, which, like
bolts from the catapult Of Jove, few
with deadly force for great distance,
while others in the very center Of the
storm escaped with little or no injury.
Perhaps the most remarkable expert.
ences were those Of Miss Moorehouse,
Mrs. Webster, and her son. The three
were caught up in the storm, and were
carried beyond the Catholic church,
nearly one-fourth Of mile, and let
down on the common so gently that
none were killed. Mrs. Webster had
some slight cuts about the head, her
son had one arm fractured, but Miss
Moorehouse was uninjured.
'sI was conscious all the time was
flying through the air. said Miss
A8orehouse, and it seemed a long
time. I seemed to be lifted up and
whirled round and round. going to q
great height, at one time far above the
church steeples, and seemed to be car
ried long distance. / prayed to the
Lord to save me, for I believed he
could save me, even on the wings Of
the tornado, and he did wonderfully
preserve my life. AS was going
through the air, being whirled about
at the sport of the storm, saw a
horse soaring and rotating about with
me. It was white horse, and had 8
harness on. BY the way it kicked and
struggled as it was hurled about I
know It was alive. I prayed to God
that the horse might not come in. con-
tact with me, and it did not I was
mercifuIy landed upon the earth un-
harmed-saved by miracle
young Webster says he saw the
horse in the air while he was being
borne along by the storm. AT one
time it was directly over me. and I
was very much afraid worl1 come
In contact with its flying heels The
horse, it is said. was caught up and
earned one mile through the air, and.
according to the accounts Of reputable
witnesses. at times was over 200 feet
high, passing over a church steeple.
Many who were not in the storm say
that they saw horses fvtng in the
wind. Beyond being well plastered
with mud. the white horse was unin-
jured by his aerial fight"

THREE JOINTS.
Removed From Mans Backbone and
He Still Lives.

He Still Lives.
Minus three joints Of his backbone.
John Kaller. Of No. so Willoughby
street, Brooklyn, n. Y, lies on cot
in St. Johns Hospital, Long Island
City, making brave fight against
death. The missing pieces Of his spinal
column were removed on Thursday
last by Eve surgeons. It was an opera
ton almost unparalleled in surgery,
but it was his only chance for life.
Kaller has been a telephone lineman.
Recently he was sent to repair wires
along the Shore Road, in Astoria.
About noon he was working at the top
of a pole near the Woolsey estate. Just
how it happened neither Kaller nor any
one else knows, but suddenly the line
man found himself in the clutches OF
an electric current. He had grasped a
live wire. his body was twisted in tor
ture and pufss Of smoke arose from his
burning hands.
The man kept his senses. Hanging
there, burning and in terrible pain. he
realized that to remain in contact with
the wire for but few seconds more
meant death to him.
With strength born Of that knowl-
edge Kaller tore himself free from the
live wire on which he had fallen and
deliberately threw himself to the read
way. He fell IS feet and struck upon
his head and back. He was taken to
st. Johns Hospital, and doctors worked
over him for eight hours before the
dangers from the electric shock were
removed. Then they performed the
operation.
In falling Kaller had broken his back.
The seventh, eighth and ninth verte-
brae were badly fractured, and spliR-
ters Of the broken bone pressed on tha
spinal cord. The pressure had produced
paralysis, and would have caused death
II not removed.
DIR. John Francis Burns was in
charge Of the operation. Assisting him
were DR.. H. A. McGronen, DR.. J. J.
Mulcahey, DR.. Thomas Cassidy and DR..
John F. Farwel. Technically, the doc
tors took out the spinous processes and
transverse sections Of the seventh,
eighth and ninth vertebrae. The oper-
alton was successful.
II do not know Of an exactly similar
case" said DR.. Burns, last night.
Three vertebrae were badly fractured.
and had to be removed, leaving arches
to protect the spinal cord. But Kali

atives have telegraphed to his mother.

kaller's condition Is very grave. He
has remained conscious from the first,
and has taken keen interest in the
remarkable operation performed upo1
him.

Why, Oh, Why?

takes the position that the fourteenth
amendment is mandatory upon con
gress-respec,ing the reduction of re-
presentation in the Southern states,
for example, to correspond with sny re-
duc;ion which may have been made
