 In conformity with the action of the city council Monday night Marshal Stambaugh is today sending out no. tices advising the public that taxes are due on December 10, and if not paid by that time will become delin- quent.
 The taxpayers have been coming in pretty ligeig during the pass ves :. and a good percentage or the taxes bas already been settled. Others. howeye, it is understood, are holding back with the hope that the incorporation of the city will be attacked in the meaptiIne, and still others may take 8 chance and refuse to pay taxes, permitting them to become delinquent with the h5pe that an effort will be made to disin- corporate the city. These. however. are few. and it is noticeable that all the heavy taxpayers are settling up.
 The position these persons who hope to attack successfully the incor- poration of the city by refusing to pay taxes Is. in the unanimous opinion of local lawyers. hopeless. It is general
 ly admitted by opponents of the law

Mixed on Chanee.-A new arrival from Kishineff or some other city where those of the Hebraic faith are numerous. this morning had sad ex- perience with a Mexican. It brought him into court with one whom he sus- pected. but he got no relief there, for he admitted to the court that they all looked alike to him." The trouble was that the new arrival sold Mexi- can an overcoat at specified price. gold. The Mexican paid him in Mexi- can currency in the proper ratio. Not being accustomed to Mexicon money the Hebrew merchant gave him change in gold and thereby lost by the transaction. When he discovered his loss he looked up his friend, Wm. Kline. and picked up a Mexican on the street whom he thought was his cus- toner But in court he admitted he was not sure the Mexican was the man and therefore could make no case against him.

G|A MONSTERS
 COMMITTED SUICIDE The Unexpected Snow and Early Blizzard Has Bad
 Effect on Reptiles.
(Eew York Herald)

The unexpected snow and early blizzard which visited Arizona and New Mexico a few days ago has rid that country of thousands of Gila monsters and other poisonous liz zards," said J. R. Alexander, of Las Vegas, N. A., "and the odd thing about it Is that they seem to have commit ted suicide. I saw hundreds of their bodies lying around, turned black as if stung by some other poisonous reptile or the victim of their own venom.
 The oldest inhabitants have never seen anything of the sort before, and 1t is the common opinion down there that the disappointment of the unex- pected cold swept a wave of suicidal impulse through the ranks of the liz gard population. There is no apparent reason why they should not have sought shelter and hibernated. It is natural for the species to become tor Did when the temperature is very hot and hibernate when it is very cold
 Professor Givoni Maritelli, a scien- tist, of Naples. Italy, who was a wit nes of the phenomenon suggests that if the cause of the suicidal passion can be positively discovered it may be utilized to eliminate the dread Gila monster entirely from the region of the Gila river. where the inhabitants live in terror of it. I never but once before heard of wholesale suicide among reptiles. That was in Panama. where tree snakes abound, the most deadly of the reptiles living entirely in trees. Going through the forests one must always be on the lookout for them. They hang down from the branches and when struck by one of them you begin at once to turn black and death is inevitable.
 One day I was necr , small forest fire which was making a good deal more smoke than blaze. We'll, sir, it would have done your soul good to see ho~ it affected those snakes. The smoke maddened them and they seemed to forget everything but them selves. Even mile from the fire you would find them excitedly fussing each at himself. One would keep up whipping and a threshing for half hour or an hour and then all at once dart his fangs into himself. It's a mystery why those big Hazards killed themselves. but there's no doubt it was suicide"

that the actions of the city govern ment are legal. even if there are ir- regularities in the incorporation. The only way to attack the city Is to make a direct contest of the incorporation. and then if the city is knocked out it will be held that its past actions are legal, becuase the city Is a de facto government It's the same proposition as would apply to the case of Ben Rice. over whose election to the onice of justice of the peace there is talk of a contest. Granting that at some future time. after he has been per forming the ofiice of justice, his cleo. tion is declared illegal, the official acts he has already performed would not be nullified. because he was the de facto justice of the peace.
 It is very probable that by the 10th no one at present holding out for some one to make a move against the city will have failed to pay his taxes, for he cannot get any legal encour agement in the premises.

GAMBLING IN DOUGLAS
 GOES ON MARCH Douglas City Council Passes Two Ordinances Prohibit
 ing the Evil.

The Indian sign was placed on gam bling fast night when the two commit tees of the city council to whom the gambling ordinances were referred favorabfy reported them and the coun ell speedily passed them. There was not a dissenting vote on the ordi nances, but Alderman Pickett did mol vote, not being present. One of these ordinances regulates the evil and the other establishes new licenses. Each Is practically prohibitive and together they will undoubtedly kill gambling They become effective March 1.
 Other than the passage of these ordi nances and the allowance of monthly bills little of a specific nature was ac complished The matter of street i'm provements were discussed and 1t was decided to place cement cufverts al Tenth and F avenue and Railway and F. with possibility of one at Ninth and G. safr

[. New York, Oct. 19.-Cable communi-
cation with Havana, which was inter.
rupted during the night, has. not been
restored. The break was undoubtedly
caused by severe storm which swept
over Cuba and which was described
by the Havana operator just before
communication was lost as having
reached cyclonic proportions.
Press, dispatches received before
communication ceased stated that a
hurricane, with rain. prevailed in the
Cuban capital and that the United
States troops in Camp Columbia were
much disconnected. Later the Ha.
.vana operator told Key West that the
storm had increased In fury and that
he storm was dwelling the inland
wires leading from the cable hut. Then
followed an entire break In telegraphic
communication, which still continues.
