TALK
About Taxation
Measures
Brought Out Much
Information.
Prof. Beemis Produced Some
Figures.
Especial Correspondence.)


Columbus, O., March 13.-The Joint
session of the House and Senate FL
nance committee for the discussion of
the Decker Carle bill, brought out
some interesting taxation information
and theory. The bill Is in reality a
johnson measure and is the minority
effort in the Legislature to reform tax
alton in this State.
Briefly stated, the bill provides that
all quasi-pu6lic corporations shall be
assessed for taxation at 60 per cent
of their true market value for pur-
poses of taxation. The result of the
levy upun this basis is to be divided
among the different counties of the
State. 1t is estimated by Mr.. John
sor and ether friends of the bill that
this assessment would raise from sew
Ell TO ten millions of dollars.
Professor Edward w. Beemis, the
"Johnson mathematician," endeavored
to show that the class OF Incorporated
companies mentioned in the bill ara
assessed at only about one-third of
their true value. This he claims to
be'$534 ,000, 600 and that they are assess
ed at only $117,0OO,OOO. He claimed
that the gas and electric light com.
panies of Cleveland and Cincinnati
represent an actual capital of about
$40,OOO,OOO but that they are assessed
at only about one-tenth of this amount
Hon. Charles w. Baker, of Cincinna.
ii, spoke upon the bill but he favored
1t from lawyers standpoint and
went on to discuss the legal phase and
constitutional problems. Referring to
the Rogers bill to extend the fran.
chise of the Cincinnati Street RAILWAY
company, Mr.. Baker said that the
Legislature simply presented the com
pany with $5,000,00O. He also claimed
that the company is paying in taxes
less each year, and referred to the
fact that seven acres of land owned
by the company in the central part
Of the city had been escaping taxation
for years until the fact was recently
discovered
Hon. Uric Sloane and Judge r. M
Ditty, each of this city, also spoke up-
ON the measure but the main interest
was centered In Mayor Johnson. Rv
the time the Mayors turn to speak had
come, most Of the other committees
had adjourned so that the Senate
chamber where the meeting was held
was about full. Mr.. johnson started

MISS SMITH
Wanted New Clothes
at Any Cost.
She Was Stage Struck, Too, and
That Helped Matters Along.

Massillon, O., March 13.-Miss Maud
ID. Smith, who offered to sell her body
1fter death to Knoxville medical
eollege, is a daughter of Councilman
Peter Smith, of this city. Miss Smith
mysteriously disappeared from her
home last Saturday, and no trace of
her has been found. She went from
here to Canton, from which place she
sent home a message that she intend
I'd leaving that day for Toledo. The
mother of the young woman says she
heard her say several months ago that
10 sell the body would be good way
to raise money. She had read some
where of some person doing that.
'I thought she was just joking"
said Mrs. Smith, land paid no attention
to what she said. Maud wanted mon
ey badly for clothes. Her father. as
a punishment for running away from
home several weeks ago, refused her
clothing she wanted. though he gave
her home. He said he would buy
her the clothes if she said she was
sorry, but she wouldn't. She couldn't
work much, for "a couple of months
ago she had her hand crushed at a
laundry at Salem, where she worked
when she ran away from home the
other time.
''Maud is stage struck. That's what
has caused her to do these things.
She used to be good, sensible girl.
But that time when she ran away she
fell in with show company that play
ed Ten Nights in a Bar Room till it
broke up. She was always looking
at pictures of actresses and posing
and doing things like they do on the
stage"
Miss Smith is 10 years old and quite
pretty.

The Ambition Of the
Youngsters
Who Have Disappeared From
West Hill Homes.

Il shall never see my boy again.

mother. MY husband just sent $40
to have him brought home and we
would send as much more just as
cheerfully.'
The speaker was Mrs George Nc
Caskey, of Benjamin ST., whose IA,
year-old son, with Walter Hayes, ran
away from home, Saturday, and start
ed out to see the world.
1t is presumed that the youngsters
are headed for Texas where the great
longing of their hearts will be salts
fed when they become full fledged cow
boys. The boys left Saturday, Grant
McCaskey leaving note for his moth
er, which read: II was here. You was
gone. l have gone to the doctors.
Good bye. Grant"
The police were notified Of the dis
appearance OF the boys and Sunday
morning word was received from Mar
ion stating that the boys had been
taken into custody there. Mr. AicCas-
key at once sent the money to have his
boy sent home. In the afternoon in
formation came that the youngsters
had escaped from custody.
Both boys have history. Walter
Hays is now under 500 bond for good
behavior. He is the boy, who, 1t will
be remembered, was arrested short
time ago for destroying circulation
cards of local paper. In the past two
weeks he has been twice caught work
ing penny-in-the-slot machines with
lead slugs and this is his third run
away escapade. The first time he got
only as far as Cleveland, and the sec
ond time the redoubtable youngster set
out on trip around the world. He got
as far as Albany, n. Y, where he
came to grief, was taken in charge by
the officers and ignominiously sent
home.
Mrs. McCaskey says that Grant had
no money and he took nothing from
the house. Walter Hays, however, is
reported to have had $15. The lad is
an orphan and has been reared by his
grandmother, Mrs. Henry, and aunt,
Mrs. Henry Atkinson, who reside on
Crosby st. extension. The boys grand
mother left two weeks ago for visit
to Philadelphia and since that time
he has been under the care of his
aunt. who declares that she could do
nothing with him. His fathers name
is Frank Parker, and he is still living,
but his mother died when the child
was only seven weeks old when Mr..
and Mrs. McCaskey adopted him. and
have reared and loved him as their
own. Mr.. and Mrs. McCaskey are the
parents of seven children, but only one,
child of three, is living. Grant was
the idol Of Mrs. McCaskey's heart and
she is inconsolable over his disappear
ance.

What splendid type of tireless nc
tivity is the sun rs the psalmist de-
scribes it issuing like "a bridegroom
from his chamber and rejoicing like u
strong man to run race" Every
man ought to rise in the morning re-
freshed by slnmber and renewed by
rest, eager for the struggle of the day.
But how rarely this is so. Most peo-
pie rise still unrefreshed, and dreading
the strain of the days labors. The
cause OF this is deficient vitality and
behind this lies deficient supply Of
pure, rich blood, and an inadequate
nourishment of the body. There is
nothing that will give man strength

by increasing the quantity and quail
