shall enter the same in the tax du-
plicates, and the county treasurer
shall collect the same as other county
and State taxes. While the law
directs that the tax officials shall enter
and collect this special school tax it
does not direct that it can be entered
and collected at any time, and itmusr,
therefore, conform to the law govern
ing all other taxes.

1902 directs the auditor to prepare
book containing a list cf all the tax

and ownership thereof, which list

Oliver Wendell Holmes, the Associate

Oliver Wendell Holmes, the Associate
Justice of the United States Supreme
Court, Will not take his seat on the
bench until his nomination shall have
been sent to the Senate and confirmed
by that body, This is in consonance
with custom which has prevailed
since 1875. In that year John Rut-
ledge, of South Carolina, was appoint
ed Chief Justice in place OF john Hay
and sat in Court at the August term
that same year In December the
Senate rejected his nomination. Oliver
Ellsworth was then nominated and
confirmed Never since that episode
has a Justice of the Supreme Court
taken his seat before being ceHtirmet.

monkeys for a week. Ten days elapsed

There were monkeys everywhere, cab
