didn't take u look placed the figures at
$4,000 and also added q lot of Jewelry
to the find.
II was passing strange what a
change took place In public opinion.
The old bachelor had callers by the
score, and each caller warmly congrat
uated him. Instead Of being guyed by
the passersby as he worked In his
fields men climbed the fences to shake
hands with him and invite him to make
Investments.
In the years past even the homeliest
old maids had declared that they
would drown themselves sooner than
marry such poke" Of man. Things
were different now. At least half u
dozen old maids and three or four wild
Ows began sending IN custard pies and
Jellies and currant wine and giving
their opinion that Mr.. Joseph Harper
would show on with the best of them
II he only had u wife TO give him hints
and suggestions. Joe did not come out
Of his shell very far, but II was after
ward remembered by a good many that
he had something like twinkle In his
eye us he shook hands with his numer-
Gus wellwishers.
Unknown to any one but his doctor
Joseph Harper had a weak heart, aud
one day he OvereXerted himself and
died at his own door. SO far as was
known he had not spent dollar Of his
find, and as he had no relatives there
was much curiosity as to whether he
had made a will or not and who would
come In for his money. A village law
yer soon gratified curiosity as to will.
One had been made only six months
before the old bachelors death. More
than that, II concerned u score OF peO-
pie, each one OF whom was notified TO
appear on the day OF the funeral and
hear the document read.
The excitement was intense, and
more people turned out to pay last
tribute Of respect to Joseph Harper
than had ever followed another citizen
Of the county. While the house was
crowded full after the burial at least
200 people who could not get In stood
about the yard to learn the contents Of
the will. The first person mentioned 10
the document was an old maid Before
the find OF treasure she had been In the
habit Of mimicking the walk Of the old
bachelor and had made great hit.

ment, 'is to walk twice across the floor
and Initiate my gait as closely as posi-

double handful Of coins out Of the box

II took Lucy Ave minutes to work up
figured that double handful OF coins
would be at least $500, and she went
ahead.
The next legatee was William John
son, a farmers son, who was required
to laugh in a hearty manner for the
privilege Of taking one handful OF
coins He had always been asking old
Joe why he didn't laugh. 1t was
pretty hard Job for him to get up
hawl hawl on this occasion, but he
finally accomplished 1t and made
mighty one handed grab.

cold stream of abuse for the county

When II was found that there was a
majority of the commissioners still

machine, and locked arms with Hall,
Carey and Cake, TO down the man the
latter had promised to protect If he
would not veto their bill. AS the coun-

be seen where the shoe plnched Scott

While other states are bending their
energies TO lowering their state taxes
on property, Oregon's state tax went
up TO the unusual figure Of "a mills.
New York this year levies three

other states almost no tax, and many
