citizens to be required to pay this
money. The press of Louisville
has commented considerably upon
these taxes, both sides of the ques-
ton having been considered.
1t was argued for the Revenue
Agent that there could be no hard
ship in requiring an adjustment if
there were taxes actually due, it
being the spirit and letter of the
law that all taxation should be as
far as possible equal, and each cit
izen should be obliged to pay his
fair, reasonable and just proportion
of the expenses of government &C.
cording to his ability to bear the
same. On the other hand it WIS
insisted against the agent that it
was reflection on the citizen to
even infer that he had not paid his
taxes, and when a citizen once
gives his tax schedule and swears
to the same to be correct this
ought to be absolutely final, and
there should be no power or priv
ilege of officers to go back of the
truth of the schedule given by the
taxpayer, as after all each citizen,
to a material extent, is his own
assessor, because it is entirely i'm
possible for any officer to know Just
what personal property citizens
have, and he necessarily must trust
implicitly to the common fairness
of the taxpayer.
The prosecution Of tax claims in
Jefferson county has resulted in the
collection of hundreds of thousands
of dollars which have been turned
over to the State treasury, and we
say without fear of contradiction
that not one cent of this was paid
which did not justly and fairly be-
long to the State. The work of
Mr.. Blot stamps him as lawyer
of ability and an intelligent official.

IDEAL HOME.

Don't be afraid of little fun at home.
Don't shut your house lest the sun should
fade your carpets and your hearts lest a
hearty laugh shake down some of the
musty old cobwebs there. If you want
to ruin your sons, let them think that all
mirth and social enjoyment must be left
on the Threshold without when they
come home at night. Young people must
have fun and recreation somewhere. If
they do not find it at their own hearth
stones 1t will be sought at other less
profitable places. Therefore let the FIRE
burn brightly at night and make tie
homestead delightful with all those little
arts that parents so perfectly understand.
Don't repress the buoyant spirits of
your children. Half an hours merri-
ment round the lamp and Preside of
home blots out the remembrance of many
a care and annoyance during the day
and the best safeguard they can take
with them into the world is the influence
of a bright little domestic sanctum.

CHRISTMAS GREETING.


extends It heartiest greeting to its
,nany readers. both at home and
abroad. 1t could not do better than
to re-echo that greeting OF the
angels to the shepherds who
watched in the fields near Bethlehem
more than nineteen centuries ago:
"Glorv to God in the highest;
peace on earth to men of good will"
Could there be a nobler or more
beautiful expression! The two
sentiments expressed puts in nut
she'll the entire doctrine of Chris
tianity. Glory to God; peace to
men of good will. Thes implic-
ity of the expression and the sub
Unity of sentiments were never
conceived in human mind. 1t takes
in everything that is religious. for
DO man with a spark OF religion
would wish other than glory to
God in the highest, nor would he
wish anything else but peace
toward men. Thirty years after
this Hateful Christmas night the
Saviour taught that there were two
great COMMUNICATIVE love the
Lord with thy whole heart, thy
whole soul and with all thy
strength, and love thy neighbor as
myself. III this our Saviour was
but following the sentiments OF
bod the father as expressed
hroHgh- the angels on that first
Christmas morn. And the same
sentiment, the same doctrine, has
come down to us through all the
ages of Christianity. The senti-
ment is old yet ever new. Tongue
of orator, brush of painter and
pen of poet have been used for
nineteen centuries in describing,
depicting and singing the praises
of the new born Saviour and the
angelic message to the shepherds
Of Bethlehem. And still the sub
iect is as fruitful as ever. No two
people think exactly alike, yet in
each and every Christian must arise
beautifully sublime thoughts when
at mass on Christmas morning they
kear the "Gloria" intoned, whether
it be in little chapel on side
street or in some great Cathedral.
1t Is the Christmas greeting and it
will last until time shall be no
more. ,
We hope that all our readers will
enter into the real spirit of Christ s
mas; that they will enjoy not only
Mis- Christmas in peace and pros
perNy. but that many more peace
ful anniversaries of this approach
ng feast will come to them.

Deception. Of wnd Riras.

Falcons-hawks, the largest species
can compress their features and look
very slim if they think it necessary to
do so. AS to the owls, they can hump
up into any position they think most
suitable. 1t is useless to look for these
self preserving traits in any Of the fam
lily kept in geological collections, for
the birds are so accustomed to see
large numbers of people passing and
repassing or standing in front of them
that they treat the whole matter with
perfect indifference. They know that
at a certain time their food will be
brought to them and that they are 9th
erwise perfectly safe. Then the rap
torres in a wild state have bloom OH
their plumage like the bloom on a
bunch of grapes, which is not often
seen when in captivity.

BROWN MURDERED
AT DOGGY BAYOU
DeFuNIAK BREEZE GIVES ADD
TIoNAL NEWS CONCERNING
THE CASE.

The DeFuniak Breeze says; The re-
port of the murder of Allen Brown at
Boggy Sunday night a week ago, was
confirmed, but the coronor's jury was
unable to get any evidence that would
justify them in holding any one for
the offense. those who would seem 10
be in position'5o give evidence that
might have led to the discovery of the
guilty ones not being overly anxious
to testify.
From a party who was present at
the inquest it seems that Brown had
bargained for some wood from one
Davis, who aIUerward sold the same
wood to JEFF Allen. Brown sent his
boat after the wood and his man was
warned of by Davis, he then went
after it himself and with a Mr.. Hud-
son was loading Il in A skiff to lighter
out TO his schooner when the shot was
fired that ended his life. Hudson it
Is stated, a few minutes before the
shot was fired suggested to Brown
that he did not like to work too close
TO him for fear he would get shot, and
Brown went to the other end of the
pile, and hardly reached it before he
fell
Brown seems to have been a man
much disliked on account of his un-
pleasant disposition. and there does
not seem to be much grief over his
death. while a few were very warm
friends of his.

Archie L. Shepard's Moving Pictures
at the opera house Friday and Satur-
day, January Goth and 2lst, is that of

The beauty of the Rhine has too often

repeating but of all its beauties the
most ideal is that of the waterfalls.

descents that have given birth to
poetry and song, and have been the
foundation of many legends in the
folklore of the "Vaterland." Who

sailor to his death in those same
rapids. The beauty. and danger of
these form the most interesting part
of the scenery of the Rhine. They
will be shown by Mr. Shepard. Who
now holds the finest series of foreign
subjects ever secured. and with his
other great pictures will prove the
most interesting attraction of the sea

ADJUSTMENTS,


Mr.. Arlington cabled Mr.. Ellis at
Boston, and urged an American sea-
son instead. as all conditions seemed
ripe for an extremely extraordinary
season here. Paderewski himself was
not only willing but elsted, for he al
ways enjoyed his tours in the United
States, where he finds thorough appre-
citation and genial welcome every
where. He has often spoken enthus-
iastically of American audiences, and
takes keen interest in the development
of musical knowledge in this country.
1t was this lively interest that led
him to found the Paderewski prizes
FOR young composers, which are award
ed yearly. The tremendous activity
every where shown in the United
States, the unparalleled prosperity.
the vast industrial and commercial
development, and the unlimited edu-
eatiOnal systems in operation through
out the length and breadth of this
great new world, interest him exceed
ingly. There is little that escapes his
iEquiring mind. for Paderewski is not
an artist whose mind and tastes are
restricted solely to his own art; he
is an interchangeable investigator. a con-
slant observer, and a thinker upon
most Of the grave questions that in
vOlve the betterment OF the human
race.
His present tour began at San Fran
cisco on December II, and will con-
