SUBSTANTIAL BLESSINGS
Wireless telegraphy is here,
Its floating in the air.

Wireless telegraphy is here,
Its floating in the air.
And sunless days and moonles:
nights
We find them everywhere.
Already horseless carriages
Are killing off the folk
Who can't afford to buy them,
And that is not a joke.
Seedless berries now are grown
Upon thornless bush.
And seedless oranges are found
With the dago and the push.
They tell me that the apple
Will be changed forevermore,
What will the ragmufin do
1T there's never no more core7
The seedless raisin is the Joy
OF many household cooks.
And also for the ssges
There are the priceless books.
Appendicitis now must 20,
For seedless grapes have come.
With that and the bloodless method
The surgeons work is done.
With all these subtracted blessings,
Our hearts are lorn and sad,
For we hear no hasty promise
OF future homeless shad.

WASN'T ISGERsoLL RIemri

"A young man from a small town
whose father was friend OF the late
Robert G.. Ingersoll, wanted to Sc
cure position as Cover amen,
clerk, accordingly with a letter of
introduction from his father he went
to the national capital to see Col.
Ingersoll and get his endorsement.
Ingersoll, after listening to The
young mans story, andlearning that
he had a young wife and one child
said:
young man, | would rather have
forty acres of land with log cabin
on il and the woman love in the
cabin--with little grassy, winding
path leading down to a spring where
the water gurgies from the lips Of
the earth, whistling day and night to
the white pebbles a perpetual song
with holllyhocks growing at the
corner of the house and morning
glories blooming over the low
latched door-with lattice work over
the window so that the sunlight
would fall checkeied on the dimpled
babe in the cradle, and bird like
songs wings lowering in the summer
air-than to be the clerk Of any
government on earth"

A DEATH AND DISEASE MAP.

An official death map has been
prepared under the direction of the
census bureau. The Washington
correspondent for the Chicago In
ter-Ocean says that this map shows
that the causes of death are largely
matter of geography and the al
districts into which the country is
divided mark the limits of the diff
ferent regions where various diseases
are most rayaging. The most SEN
sational deaths occur in the Pacific
coast district region, in the state OF
Washington. This is the only dis
trict in which gunshot wounds are
reported as a prevalent cause OF
death. Heart disease, suicide and
apoplcxy show there the largest num-
Der Of victims and the record is held
for the greatest number of deaths
from alcoholism. Lung trouble APP
pears to be most numerous along the
Atlantic coast from New York to Vir-
ginia and along the Mississippi river
from New Orleans to the Ohio river.
Typhoid fever and malaria come far
down on the list in mountainous
districts, but appear at the top in
North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia, Mississippi, Arkansas and
Indian Territory. Although only
three out of every 100 die of old
age, there are a few fortunate dis
tficts where old age rivals consump-
ton and malaria as the cause OF
death. Among these favored spots
are the Catskills, Adirondack,
Green Mountains, parts of Michigan
and Wisconsin, and the region on
either side of the Missouri river.
Group and whooping cough appear
to be most dangerous in the district
which have the least population and
where, presumably, medical aid is
most difficult to obtain. Cancer,
heart disease and apoplexy are more
to be expected in mountainous parts
OF the country than in the level dis
tricts. In eight of the 81 districts
rheumatism reaps large harvest of
death, noticably in the thinIy settled
states where the inhabitants are
most exposed to the sudden changes
OF the weather. Generally speaking
1t appears that the majority of
deaths in the country are caused by
climatic conditions, while those in
the cities are caused by social con-
dititions. The farmer on the OAK
ota prairie, for example, needs to
guard against rheumatism, but not
against malaria or heart disease.

I'D LIKE TO BE A BOY AGAIN.

ia like to be boy again without
woe or care; with freckles scat
tered DER my face, and hayseed in
my hair; I'd like to rise at four
o'clock, and do hundred chores.
and saw the wood, and fed the hogs,
and lock the stable doors, and herd
the hens, and watch the bees, and
take the mules to drink; and teach
the turkeys how to swim so they will
never sink; and milk a dozen COWS,
and bring in wood to burn, and
stand out in the sun all day, and
churn and churn and churn, and
wear my brothers cast off clothes
and walk four miles to school and
get licking every day for breaking
some old rule, and then get home
and do the chores once more, and
milk the cows, and feed the hogs
and curry mules a a score; and then
crawl YEARLY upstairs and seek my
little bed, and hear dad say, "That
worthless boy, he doesn't earn his
bread" I'd like to be boy again,
a boy has so much fun; his life is
just one round of mirth from rise TO
set of sun. ] think there's nothing
pleasanter than closing Stable doors,
and herding hens, aid chasing bees,
and doing evening chores.

THE UNITED STATES COURT
Has Decided that Money on Deposit
In Banks 10 the Credit or Non Resi-
dents Is Not Subject 10 Local Taxation.

A case of unusual importance has
lust been decided by the Circuit
Court of Appeals for the Fourth
Circuit, at Richmond. A short out.
line of the case is as follows:
Lewis A. Brenneman was one Of
the successful oil operators in the
Elk Fork field, in Tyler county.
Erenneman sold odt his holdings
and removed from the State Of West
Virginia just prior to April Is,,
1900, to Pennsylvania, but left TO
his credit in the Sistersville banks a
very considerable amount of money
realized from the proceeds of the
sale of the oil property. The
assessor 'of Tyler county assessed
this money to Brenneman and the
taxes came out against Brenneman
Tor the tax year ensuing, amounting
to over $50 Brenneman claimed
that this was an erroneous and I'M
lawful assessment, and employed
Judge +. p Jacobs, OF New
Martinsville, and V. b. Archer, of
Parkersburg, as his attorneys, who
filed a bill in Equity in the United
States Circuit Court of the Northern
District of West Virginia, at Parkers-
burg, and obtained from Judge
Jackson an injunction against
Stephen G. Pyle, Sheriff of Tyler
county, restraining Pyle, sheriff,
from proceeding through the courts
by garnishee process against the
banks to collect the assessment.
Dispositions and proofs were taken
on behalf of both Brenneman and
Pyle, sheriff, and the case was sub.
mitted to Judge Jackson, who sus-
tanned the injunction and perpetual
ly enjoined Pyle, sheriff of Tyler
county, from any proceedings what
ever for the collection of the taxes.
Judge Jackson holding that the
money on deposit was credit, and
was not money in a concrete form.
and therefore was not the subject of
taxes in West Virginia after Brennc-
man had ceased to be a citizen of
said State, and that the assessment
OF this money must be made blythe
assessment authorities at the resi-
dence or place of abode of the
owner of the funds. From this
decree Pyle, through his attorneys,
took an appeal to the Circuit Court
OF Appeals, where the case was argu-
ed by Judge Jacobs, of New Martins
vile, in favor of Brenneman. and a
decree by that court has just been
rendered in favor of Brenneman.
fully sustaining the position taken
and decree rendered by Judge John
J. Jackson, of the Circuit Court for
the Northern District of West Vir.
ginia The case is important in
settling the principle that money on
peposit in West Virginia banks to
the credit of resident is not
subject to local taxation.

Forest fires are raging along
Roaring creek, in Randolph county
w. Va, and hundreds are out fight
ing it. The large Methodist church
at Philips Mill near Monroe was
destroyed. The large lumber mills
OF Fl. II. Hankey and Col. w. II.
Mable are in danger. Hundreds of
saw logs and telephone poles, be-
sides miles of fencing, have been
destroyed. Dense volumes of
smoke fill the Roaring creek valley
almost obscuring the sun. The fire is
moving steadily on the Curtis settle
ment, on Rich Mountain. Miles of
valuable timber have already been
destroyed. Men have left the
mines to help fight the fire.
