COUNTY TAX
RETURNS ARE SLOW.

The books in the office of the receiver
of tax returns have been open just a
week, during which time the returns
have been coming in unusually slow.
The tax receiver has sent out addi-
tional notices to taxpayers to make
their returns, with the hope that the
rush will not be so great at the
eleventh hour.
The vast majority of those who have
made their returns are country people,
who, seeing the notices which have
been tackled on the trees and fences
in the country tributary. have dispos-
ed of the matter by registering at once.
1t is expected that the number of white
people who register from the country
will be even greater for the next two
weeks, those who have made their re-
turns SO far being mainly negroes.

STOLE MANY CLOCKS.
Thief Got Into jewelers. window
With a Glass Cutter.

With a glass cutter the window of
j. Levy, a jeweler at No. I'll Congress
street, west, was broken some time
early yesterday morning and in the
neighborhood of dozen small alarm
clocks were removed.
Although everything indicates that
a glass cutter was used it is possible
that the window was broken with a
brick. This is doubted, however, by
the officers, who think that the break
ing of the glass would have been heard
by the uniformed men in the neigh
bOrhood. The theft was reported at
police headquarters and during the
afternoon an investigation was made
by the detectives. No trace of the
thief has been found as yet, however.
So far as is known only the small
clocks were taken from the window.
