An important character in the pro-
duction of 1.-The Raven" on Monday
evening was inadvertently overlooked,
on account of frequent Interruptions
experienced while writing the report
of the entertainment. 1t was that of
Lenore, taken by Mrs. J. P. Bauder,
who acted the character in a most adj
mirable manner, and who really
looked the spiritual character she rep
resented in her beautiful costume.
Mrs. Bauder is an experienced elocu-
Zionist and easily obtained a proper
conception of the poem, as we'll as of
the particular part assigned to her.
John Nelson, one of the prominent
sheep men of the northern part of the
territory, came up from his home at
Mesa today on business. Mr.. Nelson
has large range in the White noun
tains where he ranges thousands of
head of sheep during the summer
months and winters his flock in the
Salt river valley. He owns a fine
ranch near Mesa City and has nearly
200 acres of fine alfalfa so that he is in
good fortune all around this season.
This is his first visit to Prescott and
he thinks it a very prosperous and
looking little city-and
the Journal Miner agrees with him.
The Monday club realized over 500

much credit is due to Mrs. ID. NJ. f.
Weeks who had the executive manage
ment of it. She met with several OBJ
stacles and discouragements during
the early period of its history
enough to have caused some to have
given it up but she only redoubled
her efforts and several members of the
club rallied more closely to her sup
port and it was carried through to

morning, however, the reports of the
conditions prevailing on account of the
st;ike and the failure yesterday at
Victor which our correspondents had
received were so alarming that after
O'Clock they declined to extend the
funds necessary to meet the demands
that were certain to be made. Conse-
quently it was thought to be for the
best interests of all depositors to place
the bank in liquidation, SO that all
should share alike.
The assets are abundant to pay
the depositors. 1t may take a little time
to realize on them because of the
strike conditions. but every energy
which we possess will be devoted TO
the realization of funds to pay the liza
bilities. The deposits are about s210,-

amounts TO about $4,000 The loans
are in the neighborhood of S2s0,000.

WAY TO COLLECT
RAILROAD TAXES

Denver. Nov. 10.-The Colorado
Court of Appeals handed down an opin-
ion in the case of ID. Il. Dobbins. as
county treasurer of Boulder county,
against the Colorado & Southern Rail-
way Company to the effect that county
treasurers may ask for receivers for
railways which do not pay their taxes.
it was contended on the part of the
county treasurer that he had the right
to attach the rolling stock of the road
for the non-payment of taxes. This
contention was not sustained by Judge
Gunter in giving the opinioni of the
court. The remedy of the treasurer
is the asking for a receiver for the
road.
The case was commenced in 1898,
when the road in question was in the
possession of the Union Pacific. Denver
& Gulf Railway Company. Later II
was transferred to the Colorado &
Southern. which latter road owns it at
the present time In the trial court 1t
county did not have case against the
railway and for this reason the suit
was dismissed. Dobbins, however,
clung to his contention and the case
was appealed.
Judge Gunter states in the opinion
that the road cannot be sold in part.
although all of the county treasurers
through which the road passes could
get together and sell all of the road
If they saw fit But the proper remedy,
it is claimed by the court, is to apply
to court of equity for receiver.
The case is an important one in that
It will give the county treasurers the
right to go ahead and ask for receivers
for all roads which do not pay their
taxes
