The Railroad Tax Act.

1t is expected that at its November
November term the Court of Errors
and Appeals will review the recent de-
cision of the Supreme Court, handed
down by Justices Pitney and Fort, up
holding the constitutionality of the
Perkins railroad tax act.
Railroad attorneys have already pre-
pared writs Of error, and are said to be
about ready to file them, in order that
the Court Of Errors and Appeals at the
November term may review the deci-
sion.
1t is expected the writs will claim
that the decision of Justices Pitney
and Fort is contrary to the equal tax
alton clause of the New Jersey State
Constitution, which provides that
taxes shall be assessed by general laws
and at uniform rates, and also to the
fourteenth amendment of the Consti-
tuition of the United States, which for
bids the taking Of property without
the due process OF law, and prohibits
Legislation which shall deny to any
citizen or corporation the equal pro
lection Of the law. =
In case Of an adverse decision in the
highest court Of the State, it is said
the suits viii be carried to the United
Estates Supreme Court.

Telling the Health Of Fowls.

DR.. Salmon of the bureau Of animal
industry lays down this rule for telling
the health of fowl by its droppings:
The condition of the droppings fur
nishes good indication Of the hens
health. They should be of sufficient
consistency to hold their shape, but
should not be too solid. In color they
should be dark, tapering off into a
grayish white. If the droppings are
soft or pasty or of yellowish or
brownish color 1t indicates too much
carbohydrates or lack of meat. If,
on the other hand, the droppings are
watery and have dark red splashes of
mucus In them 1t indicates too much
meat. A greenish, watery diarrhea
usually indicates insanitary conditions
either in the surroundings, the feed or
the water.

The shooting Method a Failure.


The people of Morristown long since
came to the conclusion that they must
endure the depradations of hoodlums
in the outskirts of the town with the
best grace possible, and the residents
in the lower part of the town hire pri-
vate watchmen to guard their proper
ty. Every night gangs of boys from
ten years old and up come into the
centre of the town, hang about the
streets and alleys and commit all kinds
of depredations and are a nuisance
generally. A week ago Sunday gang
of boys hung around South and De-
Hart streets, ransacking boxes, raiding
gardens and making themselves nuis-
ances generally. A policeman was a
short distance away standing still and
engaged in conversation contrary to
the rules of the department. II the
people of the town want to stand for
this sort of thing it is their right, but
when itcomes to annoying and assault
