Tax Scheme rh.t Failed.

Switzerland has always prided itself
on it's independence, and in fiscal mat
tiers this proud spirit, which will brook
no interference with the rights of the
individual, even by the. state in quest
Of revenue, has sometimes been ex-
hibited in curious ways, says the Pail
Mall Gazette. As the inquisitorial
methods of income tax collectors are
abhorrent to the freedom loving Swiss,
boxes were once or twice set up In
several cantons to receive the volun-
tary contributions of loyal citizens. It
was hoped that this method of relying
ON the public spirit Of the people
would prove successful in raising
money for public ends; but, alas for
human nature, in the course Of few
years the collectors on opening the
boxes found nothing but-trouser but
tons. So the voluntary system. after
fair trial, had to be reluctantly aban-
doned In favor of. declaration Of
capital and income, which Is liable to
official investigation.

A gentleman was attending lee

took to be an acquaintance. Havins
no other way to attract his attention,
he asked a stranger sitting next to
him to poke the supposed acquaintance
with his umbrella. As the disturbed
man turned his head the gentleman
discovered that he was not the person
he had supposed. so he fastened his
gaze attentively on the lecturer, leav-
ing the man with the umbrella to set
tie with the man he had disturbed, an
embarrassin9 and difficult task. At

ment for life. It is probable that with
his voluntary plea and the dislike OF the
Judge to infiict the death penalty Is the
reason that he thus escaped hanging at
the time. Peterson had been a bad man
to his family previously. Before coming
to this county he had been imprisoned
in the Stony Mountain prision in Mani,
toba on a charge of horse stealing and
had escaped to this side of the line
Some years later he went to Winnipeg
on a visit and was arrested and made
to serve the balance Of his term. :, 1t was
rumored among the oldtimers that he
was suspected Of murder IN Manitoba.
We doubt if single person IN TINS
county would ask for his pardon even
though he has been in the penltent'ary
since August, 1893 and must be now
UPWARDS of seventy years old.

No Pardon for Till.

The state board of pardons divided
along political lines in voting on the APP
plication of Joseph Till, for pardon, ac-
cording to reports from Bismarck, but
it is not thought that there is any signi-
fcance in the vote. Governor Burke
and both of his appointees, G. X. Wing
(of Minnewauken,) and w. A. Fulkerson
voted to grant pardon to Till. Chief
Justice Morgan and Attorney General
McCue voted against the pardon.
1t is the opinion of the board that
there is testimony enough to support
Till's conviction for murder, but those
members that voted for pardon say
that some of the testimony relied upon
is possibly perjured testimony. The
other members of the board take the pQ-
stion that this was matter for the jury
that tried the case.
Seth L. Hartzell of Cavalier county
who was tried for murder in the court
here was one of the applicants for par
don at the session of the board last
week but the pardon was not grant
led.
Albert Peterson of this county was al.
so an applicant for pardon, but on what
grounds we do not know. Peterson muir
dered his wife in 1893 in their own door
yard and in front of his children.

Representative Knapp succeeded in having
the order changed and the regiment sent

stituents believe that his influence will be
great enough to get this order changed.

KILLED IN FALL FROM AUTO,
Fatal Accident to Show Girl on Road
Near Danville, Pa.

DANVILLE, Pa, July 12.-Death, sudden
and violent, came to Miss Agnes Hilda Gar
ger show girl, when she fell from
swiftly moving automobile on a country
road near this place at an early hour yes
terday morning. Fred Owen, in whose car
she was riding, after picking up his injured
companion, and while she was breathing
her last, dashed for Danville at top speed
in search of the nearest medical assistance.
only to find on his arrival here that Miss
Garger was dead in his arms.
Miss Garger was playing here with a
carnival company. She was about twenty
1--WE years of age and most attractive. Mon
day night, after the performance, she, with
MIR. Owen in one car, and another member
of the carnival troupe, Miss Agnes McVey,
and Harry Cromwell, in another left for
the Oak Tree Hotel, a country roadhouse
five miles from Danvilie, to spend the even
ing. The party stayed at the Oak Tree
for several hours and left the hotel on the
return trip home.
Coming into Danville from the Oak Tree
Hotel there is steep hill, and Mr.. Owen
was taking the grade at a good clip, when
suddenly the car struck a waterway, and
when Owen recovered from the jolt he
found his companion missing. Backing his
car to the waterway he found Miss Gar
ger lying PROSTATE on the road.
The girl was still breathing. and Owen
placed her in the auto and with one arm
grasping the dying girl and the other on
the steering gear he started on his race
with DEATH Before half of the distance be-
tween the hotel and Danville had been
covered, however, the girl expired.
