MISSING WORD CONTEST.

THE GLOBEbegan yesterday morning the publication
OF most interesting story, lost RiUer, founded
upon the famous play of that which will be pro-
duced in this city, at the Grand Opera House during
the week Of January 90. The story will run through
seven successive issues Of The Globe, Concluding
with the issue of Jan. %. Through the courtesy of
Manager Theodore l. Hays, of the Grand and Jules
hurry, manager Of the lost RiUerft Company, The
Globe is able to make proposition which it IS believed
will proUe very acceptable to its readers The Prop
0Sition is this:
In one Of the seUen inStament8 of the 8torg word
Of the text will be omitted The first person to send
in the omitted word WM be giUeh an order on the
Grand Opera House for box at any one performance
OF lost RiUer" except Sunday eUening To the next
nine sending in the correct word an order for two
seats each for one of the performances wH6e given
absolutely free of charge.
All letters should be addressed to- the Manaqinq
Editor of The Globe. Read the story carefully each
day and send in your guess. The story itself will be
found weH worth reading, and tVH be doubly appre-
ciated because of the fact that the play is to be seen
so soon in this city.

of our laws of taxation, believing that
there are many respects in which the
present system needs amendment. And
l am sure that out of the work of the
tax commission will come much good.
Anticipating the extra session which has
been called, / have given the matter Of
not vet had the opportunity to make
careful study CT the code as reported by
the commission, and am not prepared TO
pass judgment upon it.
But l believe that the legislature
should be circumspect in making amend
ments to the bill suggested by the COM
mission. The subject is a large one, and
if we start in on amendment there is
no telling when or where We shall end
The extra session should not be prOlong-
ed unduly. Moreover the commission has
given the whole subject mature consid-
Grafton, and is better versed with the de-
tails of the law than the legislature can
be after a months consideration. The
fewer amendments the better. After the
new code has had a practical test we
shall be in a better position to make
amendments.
1.-The matter can be disposed of more
intelligently and with greater dispatch
if the tax commission is in attendance
when the bill is taken up by the legis-
lature, and l shall suggest that the COM
mission be on hand to advise with the
legislature and furnish information as
to details which their careful study OF
the present tax laws especially fits them
for:
Inere are certain broad features OF
the bill which commend themselves to
me. I am heartily in favor of the prop
osition to establish a permanent tax COM
mission and a state board of review. The
present state board of equalization is un-
wieldy and its sessions are largely con-
sumed in the efforts of the various MEM
bers of the board to obtain special favors
for their particular localities. state
board of review would remedy this abuse.
There has been some criticism of the
commission because of alleged failure to
provide for the taxation of foreign cor
porations. Foreign corporations doing
business in the state should pay their
share of the states taxes, and the leg
islature should give the matter its careful
consideration.
81 am in hopes that the new code will
go upon the statute books with a mini
mum of amendment and with as short a
session of the legislature as so important
a subject will permit, and I shall use my
influence to that end.

given us of late years some of our best
pedagogical literature.
THE teachers display great interest in
the reading circle work, and it has be
come a permanent feature of the state
educational system. 1t has proved very
beneficial. Many Of the teachers would
have no opportunities to do this reading
in any other way. 1t has stimulated
the reading habit among the teachers
and the constant discussion of questions
pertaining to the teachers work and Of
world topics of interest has served to
arouse in teachers throughout the state
an eagerness for keeping up with the
times. The work has been an inspira-
ton to many teachers who find it a
recreation amid the drudgery of their
daily grind. Where teachers cannot
conveniently meet in county associations
plan of home study is adopted, and the
teachers are requested to make notes and
reports on their reading from time to
tine TO the superintendent"

POLICE ARE INVESTIGATING CASE
OF JAMES CASEY.

James Casey, who was picked up by
the police Wednesday night on the sup
position that he was insane. was yes
terday taken to the detention ward in
the city hospital. When taken in charge
by Sergeant Patrick Murnane, of the
police department, Casey was kneeling
on the sidewalk near the union depot
praying vociferously, and upon being
questioned he could not give a compre-
hensible account Of himself. After being
taken to the county Jail he was violent
for short time, but subsequently be-
came quiet and doeile, and there are now
some doubts as to whether he is insane
or not
There are some peculiar features or
Casey's case which the authorities will
investigate. 1t has been found that he

CLAIMS.

ages accruing from cattle destroyed ty
the health department. because of disease
injection the assembly yesterday sent to
comptroller McCardy peremptory o."
der to place his signature on a number
Of the claims that have been sent TO
him to be audited.
City Treasurer Bremen yesterday re-
ported to the council the amount of the
approved claims, SLIGO, and the fact that
he has sent them to Mr.. AIcCardy two
weeks ago.
The majority of the claims are fully
year old and have been piling up ever
since the law was created by the last
legislature. Repeated attempts have been
made to collect them by the owners or
cattle destroyed, but without results.
1t is said that Mr. McCardys ax-
planned reason for not auditing the claims
is that he is too busy just now with
other matters.

CEMENT HAS CONE UP
PROPERTY OWNERS TO .sAY MORE
FOR WALKS.

Property owners this year unfortunate
enough to be called upon by the board
of public works to lay cement side
walk in front of their holdings will be
compelled to pay one-half a cent more
per square foot than their companions
in misery of a year ago.
This is the rate established by the latest
bids received, and will go into effect as
soon as the award Of contract to L. G.
Washington, the successful bidder, can
go into effect.
On the basis of 100000 square feet to he
laid this year, the board received three
bids. one from Fielding & Shepley for
1884, AGO. the other from L. B. Curtis for
$40,26O and lie third from L. G. Wash
ington. in which he named $34,3S0 as the
figures. The tabulating made showed
Washington to be the lowest bidder, ne
giving a. rate SAC less. than Fielding &
Shepley.
Up to last year the price for, cement
walks had been taking a steady drop,
but this year there is a marked advance
This was expected, however, as material,
and especially labor, has taken a de-
cidedly upward turn. 1t is expected that
the number of miles of cement walks
laid this year will be the greatest in he
history of the city.
