"As Told in the Hills"

The latest ana one or the best OIL
ferings in the melodramatic line, "As
Told in the Hills" with Katherine NJ
Challoner in the leding role, will be
presented at the Grand Opera House
October 18th. The play is melo'
drama of the kind that has as many
thrills as the most exciting, yet has
no strained situations or climaxes
that in real life are improbable or I'M
possible. The incidents are drawn
from real life and presented in man
ner that is intensely realistic and in.
teresting without the cheap play for
effect that sacrifices true dramatic
merit. The play begins with scene
showing a small party of emigrants
who have been surrounded by band
Of hostile indians on the western
plains and are fighting for their lives
while an Indian youth is bearing n
message asking relief from the near.
est fort where United States troops
are quartered. Red Wolf, an Indian
chief, who Is acting as protector for
the party, has been mortally wounded
and dying just before help arrives,
leaving Pamneno. his infant daugh-
ter, in charge of Mr.. and Mrs. Howard
who adopt the child and rear her as
their own.
The Indian girl has an inheritance
of bag of gold which is kept in trust
for her by Howard. His refusal to d.
vide this gold with his partner leads
to Quarrel in which Jim Dexter, the
partner, Attempts to kill Howard: For
this attempt he is sentenced to a long
term in prison.
When the second scene Of the play
opens, eighteen years later Dexter has
escaped from prison and returned to
his Arkansas home to which Howard
has returned with Pamnena and Texas
Howard, his own daughter Dexter
seeks to kill Howard In revenge for
his Imprisonment. His plan for re-
venge includes the kidnapping Of the
Indian girl, Pamnena who has grown
to be beautiful young woman, &C.
complished and talented from her life
IN the East where she has had the
best educational advantages that her
foster father could procure for her.
The plot to kidnap the Indian girl Is
unsuccessful for the conspirators car
~ Off Texas Howard by mistake. She
Is recovered mainly through the et-
forts of Little Fox, the Indian boy
who has returned from the home of
his own people in the far west where
he went to make the fortune that his
pride demanded he should have before
he asked for the hand Of Pamnena,
There is a bright vein of comedy
running through the play furnished by
one Napoleon Bonaparte Julius Caesar
George Washington Johnson" a col
ored servant and J. Mcintosh Todd,
"A Gent Of the Road" who appears
on the scene whenever his presence is
needed to furnish bit Of bright, clean
comedy as contract for the stronger
situations of the play, The scenic
equipment of the play is elaborate and
true. to nature and no expense has
been spared by W. F. Mann, the pro.
Queer, to make 1t one of the most ar
llstIc productions on the road.

INVERSION EXPLAINS
INHERITANCE TAX.
STATE AUDITOR ISSUES LETTER
TO COUNTY OFFICIALS.
Law Does Not Apply to Estates in
Gross, but only to Distributive Shares
into Which Estate Is Divided-First,
Ten Thousand Dollars Received Is
Exempt.

It has taken thirteen years for the
law taxing inheritances to advance
from stage Of constitutional authori-
zatlOn to, the point where, as a statute,
it has finally been declared constitu-
tional by the state supreme court.
The bill for the constitutional amend
ment, changing Sec. ! and Art. 8 so as
to authorize a tax on inheritances 9 Of
every kind and description above a
duced in the senate Of 1898 by S. W.
Leavitt, now a member Of the state
board Of control then state senator
from Meeker county. 1t is Of further
interest to note that the chairman of
the senate judiciary committee, who
worked hand-in-hand with the author
for the bill s success, was John Day
Smith, now on the Hennepin county dis
trict bench.
In view of the great Importance of
the recent ruling Of the supreme court,
Samuel G. Iverson, state auditor, has
issued an explanatory letter to county
treasurers. judges of probate, and regis
tiers of deeds turnout the state This
letter which is Endorsed by Attorney
General Edward T. Young, explains
that the law does not apply to estates
in gross; only. to the distributive shares
into which the estate is divided. The
visee or legatee, is exempt from the
tax, therefore when an estate does not
exceed $4,000 in value, the law does
not apply.
If an estate amounts to $4,000, $780,
900 of that sum is taxable at II per
cent. IF the estate amounts to $45, 900,
divided equally among five heirs, or
$4,000 each, there would be no tax
whatever. If an estate is valued at
$4,000, with legacies of $1,000 each to
ten persons and the remainder, $65, 00O
to one person, there would be tax of
per cent on $4,000 Of the $65,000.
! The law was approved by the govern
or April 10, 1905, and all estates Of per.
sons whose death occurred since that
date, are liable for the tax. The tax
becomes lien upon the estate upon the
death Of the decedent or donor, anc
shall be due and payable one year from
such death, except as otherwise pro
vided. 5,~..
It is very important to have a fail
and just appraisement or valuation Of
the estate, and if county treasurer has
reason to believe that an estate ha
been undervalued, he should promptl,
notify the state auditor, who will a
once move to obtain reappraisement
/ The word 'fgifts' clearly applies t,
all transfers or donations Of property
whether real or personal, in anticipa
ton Of death.
