Judge Maiden opened Circuit
Court bright and early Monday
morning and the Grand Jury had
organized and settled down to bust
ness before 9 o'clock. The first
case called was a damage suit
against a merchant of South Full
ton named Heyman. Mrs. Black
and son are the plaintiffs in the
case. 1t seems that Heyman
bought a crop note against the
Blacks and in the tall failing to
find, as he thought, crop enough to
pay the note made some very ugly
remarks and the suit for SIS, 900 dam
ages was commenced.

Recital PIeases.-A fair sized audi
ence greeted the soloists and the cho-
rus of 10 violins in the first of a series
of three recitals at the Y NJ. G.. A au-
ditorium last evening and the rendi-
ton of the eXcellently arranged pro-
gram was admirable. The Misses
Charlotte Noack and Kathryn No
ack proved to be performers of rare
ability and their efforts at the piano
and with the violin respectively were
appreciated The Invitation to the
| Dance" by Won Weber, as played by
Miss Charlotte Noack at the piano
brought out her talent to good advan-
taGe, showing a technic and interpre-
| taton rarely found in one of her years.
| The chorus of 10 violins was
particularly pleasing. considering
the fact that it was composed
of beginners Mrs. T. B. Reidy de-
| lighted the audience with Millilottie's
20. Bright Star" and lie Ballet d
Amour" from Faust being forced to
respond to an encore. Christian Del
Ischlaegel proved his exceptional mastery
over the violin, in his rendition of
Hauser's Hungarian Rhapsody" In the
playing of Beethoven's Sonata, his
stacatto and harmonic work was eX-
ceotionally fine. The selection from
Leonard's Souvenir de Haydn" was
much appreciated. Madam Noacll
played "Caprissioso," by Scharwenka,
in manner entirely pleasing.

plain that tne remedy proposed in the
Imposing of a 50-cent additional tax is
not adequate.
How can the county be expected &c
work out of debt through a continue
ton of the present tax, with which, un
der the present regime. it has steadily
become more deeply involved?
Grows Worse and Worse.
The county is now in worse cohdi-
ton financially than it was when the
erection of the court house was com.
pleted. Though it then owed about
$3.50. 900. which the building cost. all
but some $4,000 was in. the form of
bonds bearing 5I4 per cent interest and
provided TO be retired in 10 years Now
the county owes a sum practically equal
to the cost of the court house borrowed
in an Illegal manner, and some of it
bearing as high as G1@ per cent.
While the court house bonds TO the
amount of $125.O00 have been retired,
or will have been shortly. and tax in
tended to and sufficient ITO pay the re-
mainder of the cost has been collected,
the county has actually fallen the more
deeply in debt
With the steady increase in expenses
which the Union refers to can the
present administration. in view of its
past record, be expected. in
the next 10 years TO keep the county
running and at the same time pay off
the debt it has piled up in the last 10
years without any increase in the rate
of taxation?
Yet this is the proposition laid be-
fore the voters.
