A Hard Question.

THAT is Il complicated question, /"
said Senator Clay OF certain prac.
teal proposal. ut reminds me OF n
question that was once put TO old
Squire Briggs of Marietta.
"rhe squire was noted for his long,
Solomon-likc head, and he was fire.
qnently asked to settle disputes.
Squire said farmer to him one
day at the tavern. there's difficult
point want you TO settle. and what
ever you say I'll abide by
"'Wcll. fire away said the squire
good humoredly, and I'll see what I
can do for YOU
ITS like this said the man. Blank
son wants TO trade farms with me. but
we can't agree on terms. His land is
better Than mine, but I've got twice rs
many cranberry bushes His corn IL
all stacked and mine ain't. but I've got
screens to four windows and two doors
TO the shack. There's less stones. in
his meadow land than there is in mine,
hut there's more bog
THE man paused and took breath.
Then Inc went on:
Now | won't tell you which is
which, but one OF us thinks Blankson's
pointer dog ought 20 DO thrown in, and
the other one thinks that my heifcr
would just abont even things up. Now
what do yom say is fair?'
al last accounts the squire was still
celebrating"

Aseess,re,,+ of Rank Stock.

On Tuesday the State Board of Equal
ization of Taxes finished the hearing OF
appeals on the valuation fixed by the as
SCISSORS of Ocean county on bank stock.
In 1906 bank stock was assessed under
the Buck law as interpreted by the County
Boards of Taxation and afterwards affirm
ed by the Supreme Court. There were
several appeals from this decision and
they were sustained by the State Board.
Before making the figures for last year
the Burlington county Board went to the
State Board and asked what sort of an
assessment would be upheld by the latter
body, and ON instructions then given the
valuation was made. There was net a
single dissent from the assessment on bank
stock in this county
On the basis that was set the Burling
ton County Board figured that the STOCK
of the Tuckerton bank was worth 1854 per
share. The Ocean County Board, how
eyer, had different ideas, and fixed the
price at $S4 An appeal was made but
the Ocean county Board declined to make
a reduction and the appellants carried
their case to the State Board. Before
decision was reached, the opinion OF the
Court of Errors and appeals was filed, and
the counsel for the Tuckerton Bank not
only asked that the stock be reduced in
accordance with his original requests
per share-but he put in further appeal
on the Court of Errors action, the result
being that instead of Ocean county get
ting tax on value of $64 per share, the
price was cut down to $50 per share.

Swifts younger sister, is expected and Mr..
Swift goes to the station to meet her.
During his absence Nancy Moves, the
actress-wife, arrives and is promptly mis-
taken by Frank Cutting, "a friend of the
family for the governess. He introduces
her as such to Mollie Miller, the young
sister, and Mollie at once becomes friend
ly with her. The actress, quick to realize
the humor of the situation and desiring to
learn more of her late husbands family,
decides TO help along the misunderstood
ing and offers no objection to being
presented as the governess. In the cast
will be Albert Phillips, ]. Hammond
DALEY, Hugh Cameron, John Flemmings,
Hope Latham, Lottie Briscoe, Ada Bos-
hell and all the other Orpheum favorites.
