ENFORCEMENT OF
DELINQUENT TAXES.

In an interview with Assessor
Holt, he stated, among others, that
one suggestion was made during the
recent meetings of the respective
assessors with regard to the collec.
ton of taxes on property which be
thinks is very important. 1t is on
the line of what Govarpor Carter
says he has found out, that there ia
no law with which to ENFORCE the
collection OF taxes by charging
interest, only the addition OF the 10
percent penalty when payment
becomes delinquent. The taxes
upon realty cannot be enforced by
selling the came under execution;
Now the assessors have taken this
up and have considered it to be
later on recommended for favorable
enactment They will recommend
the provisions similar to those
provided in the County act, under
Chapter 20 thereof, relating to
delinquent taxes" and contained 10
Sections PSI to 265 Inclusive.
But the time of redemption for
property sold under delinquent tax
execution be extended to Eve years
instead OF two, by paying a certain
stated rate of interest, say 10 per-
cent per annum on the whole
amount from the day of sale, aud
the amount of taxes occurring after
such sale. This is relief to the
property owner aud which he can
have time to redeem his property.
In the meantime, what is TO be
done with the property sold under
execution. III there has been no law
to warrant such sales, then the
various sales should be called eli
and the properties turned ovsr to
their Iightful owners.
The Government has no doubt
placed itself in very precorloui
position with regard to damage
suits, if property owners should
institute them, In this connections
some legislation is really necessary
which the Governor no doubt will
recommend for the serious consi

Po,,,s T,,.a,er.

Certainly Tom Nawn furnishes com edy enough as the feature comedy act of the big Poli bill this week. Pat and the Genii'' is the title of the little sketch and it has the audience in a constant roar of laughter. Tom Nawn is Pat and the Genii is as beautiful as all Gennis should be.
 Belle Hathaway and her monkeys are all right, and her stunts furnish much amusement With the help of some electrical effects the act is a beautiful one.
 Bertie Fowler has good monologue, which she springs in rare style, and her facial expressions seem to help matters materially.
 Bimm Bomm, B'rrr, the sensational musical act, also scores big.
 Jones and Sutton are the colored pair with correct and up-to-date songs. Reed and Shaw are the muscular mar- vels in the novelty line. The Heavenly Twins give a, dainty comedy sketch, and the electrograph closes the bill with the motion pictures.
 Prices: Evenings, 10, 20 and 30 cents; afternoons, 10 and 20 cents; ladies at matinees, 10 cents; box seats 50 cents.

TRINITY P. E. MISSION SOCIETY
Addressed by Mrs. Hughson of Ashe- villa NJ (N

Addressed by MrS. hugnSoH ol ASne- vile, N. c.
 The Women's Church Missionary so- sciety held it's monthly meeting in the parish house at p. m. yesterday. Mrs. D. c. Eaton, president presided. The society transacted regular business af- ter which Mrs. Hughson addressed the ladies. Her husband is the arch-deacon in the Asheville district, North Caro- lima. She spoke on the mission work under her own personal observation. The people are strictly American, but retain many old English words and ex- pressions, many of which date back to Chaucer times, such as beasties, hit for 1t. They are very hospitable and kind, but extremely ignorant. They know that Morganton is their nearest town, and that they live in Burke county. but few seemed to know the name oe this county. They live in the most primitive manner, in log houses with open hearths, and corn bread, sweet potatoes, pork. and chickens the principal fare. The greater part are tenant farmers, and pay their rent with percentage of crops.
 They need very much trained nurses to care for them in their own homes. Two children were allowed to eat Christmas dinners when just convales- cent from typhoid fever. They cele- brate Christmas like the old English, retaining English customs. At Easter the children have their eggs. They plant their beans on Good Friday. On Ascension day all the men go fishing, and it is impossible to get any work done. An industrial school is very much desired. The people are apprecia- tive. Mrs. Hughson teaches cooking to as many as will come. There are teach CTS in the F. E. mission schools nine months of the year, while the public schools supported by the county are open only four months, and the attend ance is irregular During planting and harvesting women and children work in the fields. The house keeping is primi- , tive. The speaker closed with an earn est request that all present daily re- peat the monday prayer for missions A good attendance srom the different parishes heard the delightful speakers charming address.
 The Young Women's guild of Trinity church was addressed by Miss Anna Chapin Ray last evening. The guild does a great deal of sewing for the poor which is distributed to the poor of the parish. except during Lent. when the young ladies, who number of 100, send donations to some distant point Miss Elizabeth T. Fitch is the president.

Lincoln J.

Notwithstanding that sKarl' has been before the public's critical eye for a score or more of years, his voice con- tains all the sweetness, melody and melodiousness that it ever has been during his years of early success in 'The Fatherland' and several other dramas that made him a drawing card some years ago.
