Mistake Corrected.

To speaking Of Auditor Derrick's
rounds in our last issue, the types
made ue say, uoder the law the Au-
ditor must take what is given him,
aud if there are inc qualities, the
boards>of assessors end he are re-
5sponsible for it. What We intended
TO say was, if there are inequalities
in assessment that the boards of as
SCISSORS, and not the Auditor, are re-
sponsible for it. As we pointed out
before under the law the Auditor
must take such assessments as are
given to him under oath, and these
assessments are passed upon finally
by the bosrd of assessors. We make
this correction in justice to Auditor
Derrick. who has plenty OF burdens
without this one added.

EERE.
In beautiful crescent shaped valley
just below Mount Olympus, the abode
of the gods, lived a lowly shepherd with
| his wife and daughter Hebe.
| She was young maiden of about
eighteen years, and was said, not only
by mortal men, but even by the Gods
to be most beautiful.
Even jupiter admired her more than
he did any of the young goddesses.
She was as slender as leaf. Her
blue eyes were as bright as the stars
and her golden hair Wed with the sun
in its beauty
Jupiter watched and protected her
until the goddess Rumor told his wife,
the jealous Alcmena Of Jupter's affec-
ton for this fair mortal maiden so
she thought Of every plan which could
lead Hebe into danger
Therefore, Alcmena decresd that
Hebe should go down to Erebus and
get a box of beauty from Proserpine
for Alcmena
Hebe knew that her death was sure
if she must go directly to E,rebus
Therefore she went to the top of a
high tower to throw herself below when
"
girl, do not end your life III thae way,
| will hflp thee do thine errand
SO the voice gave her the direction
by which she could reach Erebus in
safety and obtain the box of b=auty
from Prosernine. In this way Hebe
easily gained what she asked for.
When Alcmena saw that she had
failed in this attempt she though of
deep cave near where Scylla and Char
ybdis dwelt. For this reason. after
gaining the friendship Of Mercury she
asked his aid.
She promised that if he would grant
her request, she would give him I;
beautiful girl for his wife,
After She had gained his consent
she told him that he must take Hebe.
the mortal maiden and the renowned
beauty, at night, to this cave, and he
must fsed her on black bread and
water, either, until she died or at least
till her beauty was gone.
The next night, when Hebe was
asleep Mercury stole into her home and
took her to her prison. When She
awakened, she was very frightened.
She called for aid, but only the angry
tones Of Scylla answered her.
Days and months passed ana Habl
seemed to grow more beautiful instead
of pininG away as AIcmena had ex-
pected
Hercules, the son Of Alcmena. was at
this time, returning victorious from
ms search for the Golden Apples of
Hesperldes. One night above the cries
OF the monsters of the seas, he heard
a gentle pleading voice as of some
maiden in distr IS.
After searching a short time he
went INTO the cave to sleep. On enter
ing he was met by the most beautiful
person he had ever seen She was SO
falr that he loved her at first sight.
Hebe told Hercules her story. of the |
jealousy of his mother, of her cruelty
IN attempting to have her killed.
Hercules at once, took her throueh
the clouds to the home of The Gods
ana placing her under the care of Jun
tier ana Juno he went to his mother
He first told her Of his love 70 rHebe
ana then plead with her that for his
sake, she would spare Hebe, the one
le loved, She at last consented to
give up the wicked chase of the
maiden and take her as a daughter.

When bull charges, just before the

you have the presence Of mind to
stand stock still until he is about two
or three feet from you all you have to
10 Is to step aside, and lie misses you.
Any child with sufficient presence OF
mind to do this can let Il bull charge
all day with perfect safety. This is
not new thing, as Ii is one Of the Sc.
clcts of the bulliightcr in the coun-
tries where the sport is practlced. The

do this, and they would never try any
such tricks with Il mad COW.
