MILDRED HOLLAND

The performance of. Mildred Hol
land in "The Triumph of an Empress"
at the Grand Opera House Saturday
evening was pronounced by all as. the
strongest dramatic production ever
seen in this city. Miss Holland is an
actress of great versatility and q won
the hearts of her audience By her ex.
cellent portrayal of Catherine the
Great. The audience was not nearly
so large as the production 2 merited,
but those present were NOT islow in
evidencing their appreciation by nu-
merous curtain calls after each act.
Miss Hollands support was very
strong and the scenic environment be-
ing perfect, the production was all
that could be desired. s,In,
1t was Miss Hollands first appear
ance in this city and many who were
not fortunate enough to be present are
now asking the local MANAGEMENT to
secure Miss Holland for a-return en-
gagement, but that will be=7mpessible
as all of her time for the rest of the
season is booked solid.

NEW SUBSTITUTES.
Two Are Working In the Local Post.

No appointments have yet been
made. but there are today two new
substitutes working In the local post
Office learning the routes Of the car
riers. The appointment OF regular
substitutes is expected at any time,
and the ones now at work who are
on the eligible list. will probably be
appointed regularly.
They are Messrs. John X. Hawkins
and II. e. Moore. Mr.. Moore has been
night baggageman at the I. c. depot
here. and is a popular young man.
Mr.. Hawkins is son of an old SOL
der OF Paducah and Is a Paducah

kins OF Stutz's. He will probably be
regularly appointed substitute car
rier. and Mr.. Moore substitute clerk.

COUNTY ASSESSMENTS.

Many counties in the state are COM
planning of erroneous assessments,
which indicates that the day is COM
ing when the assessment will be CIV
en- its proper place in local govern
ment, for on 1t depend the taxes, and
on the taxes depend the benefits to be
obtained by the people. According
to the Mayfleld Messenger about four
hundred property owners in Graves
county were not assessed at all for
this year because "the time is so short
and the salary of assessor so small,
that he cannot cover the territory. !"
AS a result the county sent out about
400 notices, each of which cost fifty
cents for service by the sheriff. and
then only a few responded, and the
county loses the taxes due on the as
sessment, as we'll as the fifty cents
paid for serving the notices.
Every county should pay the prop
er salary to its assessor, but of vastly
more importance is the selection of
capable man to do the work. The
territory to cover and the size Of the
salary are not sufficient excuse for
bad assessment. for when a man runs
for an Office he is presumed to know
what he is to do, and what remunera-
ton he is to get, and to be willing to
do II for the pay specified, II he
doesn't do IL II shows that either he
was not familiar with the duties and
requirements of the Office, which he
should have been, or else he has
shirked his duty.
