AS TO REGISTERED NAIL.

Last Tuesday three sacks OF re-
gistered mail containing Sz5O,ooo,
were stolen from the mail car OF
the Chicago, Burlington ard Ouln-
cy Railroad between Denver and
Oxford, Nebraska.
Many persons ignorantly sup
posed that by registering IN the
postofice departure a letter con-
taing mouy or other valuables II Is
secured to the sender, and IN caee
of loss in the mails the values Sc
lost are made good by the Govern
ment to the senders under a speclai
guarantee.
This is wholly erroneous. 1hefe
is no such guarantee and no Sc
curity whatever. All the Govern
menf promises to do is to take
good care of a registered letter and
deliver it ats destination Ii posi-
bic. But it is as much bound to
do the same with letters not regis
tered, and these are more apt to &C
through safety than is the register
ed mail, since every registered
package and every sack ~ "il'oi
such mail is deposited is consplcu
ously marked, SO that ROBBERS cal
see at a glance that it is valuable
and can steal it without having u
rummage through pile or NAL
matter to find it.
The obvious conclusion IS tina
by registration a package contain
ing valuables is not only nc
specially secured, but being COZ
spicuously marked as valuabie'
more liable to be stolen than is d
ordinary letter or package h'
registered. The postal mons
order gives all the safety tha'
possible for the transnissioh
money through the malls al"
the only security that the MAJ
afford. IN. O. Picayune.

MAKING STAGE" MONEY,

1t is a curious coincidence that
most of the stage money flashed
by villains in melodrmas, and for
which there is so much blood-let-
ting and murder in sensational
plays, is made in Washington al
most within the shadow of the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing.
The demand fot it has caused it to
develop into quite little industry.
1t is widely used as property"
for regular dramatic productions
and also for amateur thatricals.
1t is engraved on green paper, like
greenbacks. -
A recent issue of stage" money
contained the picture of Cassie
Chadwick, whose frenzied financial
manipulations landed her in prison.

TAX LEVY THE SAME.
Pate for County Purposes
Same as 1906.

One of the principal acts of the
board of supervisors at their meet
ing at Rosedalc last Monday was
fix the levy for county purpoes for
the ensuing year. While it was
shown that there had been some
shrinking in personal valuations as
compared with the previous asses
smcnt it was not held that it was
of sufficient importance to justify
an increase i'll the tax rate of the
previous year-10 mills to stand.
In this connection we have been,
through the courtesy Of Sheriff
Seals, provided with items and
amounts of the taxes collected by
hin, for the fiscal year just closing.
During the month of september Of
each year the Sheriff makes up
his full and final settlement of all
the taxes he has collected during
the year, and on the first day of
October starts in with a clean
slate. Here is the showing of tax
collections for the year.

Sheriff Seals states that the
amount of taxes collected by him
have more than doubled in the
past four years, as also the fines.
This is accounted for by the fact
that four years ago tie county tax
was only IN mills a1dsthelevy tax
only S mills, both of which were
last year increased to 10 mills.
Another reason for the increase IN
the amount of taxes collected will
be accounted for in tbs new land
