ment Of the city fire department.
As we gather 1t, a number OF cities IN
the state levy an assessment OF tax
upon insurance companies for the
maintenance OF the hre department
We have been requested by members
of the department to bring this fact to
the notice o. the mayor and city coun.
Gil that steps msy be taken to that end.
There Is no good reason why this mat
ter should not be taken up by the new
administration at an early date. The
following extract from the statutes
cites the law in this case; THAT in
cities of the second class having less than
FIVE thousand inhabitants and in viii
lages that maintain fire department,
the city council or board Of trustees
may, by ordinance impose an occuPa-
,tion tax on all fire insurance compa'
MES maintaining an agency or doing
business In such city or village not to
exceed five dollars per annum, for the
benefit OF such fire department" No
institution in our city should be fos-
tered with so much care as the .organi.
cation OF lads who come to your as.
sistancc and help to save your property
in case Of fire.

Calls Herself Carrie Nation.

A crazy colored woman landed at
Rives Monday evening over the
Illinois Central from some point
below. She carried large Bible
under her arm, and calls herself
Carrie Nation. She stated that
while it was the mission OF the
Western Carrie to smash saloons,
that her graft was smashing sim
ners. The signal light at the
crossing of the Illinois Central and
the Mobile & Ohio railroads is on a
small platform some twenty feet
high, and reached by ladder.
Mounting to the top of the signal
light, the colored Carrie Nation
began to call on sinners to repent,
and soon had large crowd of Gu
rious spectators. Constable Hollo-
way hearing that at some town be-
low she had pistol, and not know
ing but IN her crazy frenzy she
might use it, invited her to come
down. In reply she extended him
an invitation to come up Jacobs
ladder, which he was compelled to
do before he could induce her to
come back to terra irma,
The officer brought her here and
landed her in Jail, where she was
placed in the corridor and smashed
nearly all the window lights before
it was thought necessary to place
her in a cell. She will likely be
declared insane and sent to the
Bolivar Asylum. Banner Cores

was no clue; but after investigating
the case. the officer decided that
Wash Woods, negro employed at
the Office was the thief. He en-
deavored to get a confession from
the negro, who maintained his in
nocence and offered to carry the
officer to his house and show him

links which bind husband and
wife is a prattling child, and it is
always sad and mysterious when
God breaks one of those little gold
en- links which binds the hearts
of fond parents so closely and ten
derby. In such way Jesus came
to the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
Johnson last Sunday afternoon and
said. 'Suffer Little Son (for such
little II. J. was Familiarity called)
to come unto Me-" While on earth
He took little children in HIS arms
and blessed them and He still gath
ers them in His arms and carries
them in His bosom. Just tour
years ago in March had the little
one been making glad the hearts of
his parents and loved ones, and af-
ter severaldays suffering from con-
gestlon of the brain he passed
away.
Devoted parents, he is still yours,
and where your treasure is may
your hearts be also.
