In Court last Monday Judge Lindsey
gave an opinion and decree in the case Of
d. G. Phil Ups against Tax Collector of
Warren Borough School District. Suit
was brought to determine whether the
School Board can levy an occupation tax
for school purposes, and also per capita
tax under the Act Of 1897. The court de-
cides that the third section of the Act of
1897 is constitutional, and that the act in
tended to do away with the occupation
tax for school purposes and substitute a
straight per capita tax and therefore that
the per capita tax Is valid and that no tax
upon the valuation of al occupation can
now be levied for school purposes War

s. G.. Calhoun, Of this place, gave. or
tried to give, one of his entertainments
in the Brick church, near Six Points,
last Tuesday evening, After the show
was under way some of the boys of the
neighborhood inaugurated a rough house.
The lights were put out, fence rails,
stones, etc, were thrown into the church,
and the entertainer fled to the tall tim
Der. Too much cannot be said in con
domination of the action of the boys and
they should meet the punishment pro-
yided for so grave al ofiense. But in the
general condemnation these who have
encouraged these entertainments should
be accorded a just share of the blame.
A fler the ruction Mr.. Calhoun could
not be found and he returned home about
noon on Wednesday .-Emlenton Herald.
