household furniture, jewelry, silver
plate, etc, saying that the laws are
most generally abused in connection
with these.
Perhaps no class of property is so
undervalued by the owners when re-
turning it for taxation as household
furniture, for the fact, no doubt, that
it is regarded as unproductiVe, and
therefore should not be valued at its
full market value" he remarks. Il
am quite sure that a very large per-
centage of the watches, jewelry, pi-
amos. organs, ETC., owned in the state
are not returned at anything like
their market value, if returned at all.
This class of property, too regard
ed as worth little by the owners
thereof when returning it to be
taxed; and, while this is to some eX-
tent true, it is certainly worth much
more than it has been valued at, and
should be so returned. "
The controller also reminds the tax
receivers that taxable stocks and
bonds must be returned at their mar
ket rather than their face value, and
that all stocks interpretations are tax
able.
Property Held March 18th Taxable.
March 14th is the date which has
been fixed by the governor, control
ller-gneral and state treasurer in ac-
cordance with legal requirement, as
that to which property returns for
1908 must be referred.
For two or three years past the
| date has been March 81, the last day
that could be fixed, and which aD-
peared for a time to give the best
| results.
But it was decided that this year
there should be a change.
All parties who owned any real or
personal property on March 14th,
therefore. are liable for state and
county taxes upon it, even though
lit was sold or transferred twnety-
| four hours later.
! Receiver Pinkston will open his
books on Wednesday, April 1st, his
first appointment in his schedule OF
rounds, which is printed elsewhere in
The News, being at Bronwood on
that day.

The incalculable amount OF good

The underlying cause of nervous

So long as the stomach is weak

JUST FOR A FEW MINUTES

went SkyNafu.
The natives of Bonnie, H., where
oil was reported flowing down the
main street several days ago, no
longer sees visions of a competitor of
the Standard Oil Company, or Rock
efeller, on Bonded knee, pleading
with millionaire residents of Bonnie
for mercy. Instead the village gro
Ger is deploring his luck and bewail-
ing the loss of 500 gallons of oil,
which flowed from tank in the rear
of his establishment when the faucet
was carelessly left open.
The village was thrown into a fe-
yer of excitement early in the week,
when the man who unlocks and
sweeps out the depot for the 5
o'clock train slipped and fell into
stream Of pure oil, babbling like a
proverbial brooklet as it flowed
down the street 1t was then 4:30 a.
m At 4:45 the whole town knew
of the find and was congregated
around the stream, and for the first
time in years the five o'clock train
passed through without the recep-
ton committee of citizens congre-
gated on the depot platform.
Real estate dealers sought options
and tried to put through deal with
the town board for the lease of Main
street Property holders immedi-
ately consulted their agents and in
creased the listed price of town lots
Farmers abandoned their ''chores"
and hurried to town to be in on the
limitless stream of wealth that was
shortly to swamp the bank.
Enthusiasm was drenched, how
ever, when the grocer tore himself
away from the crowd and went to
his place of business to return five
minutes later and announce that the
stream had it's source in tank in
the rear of his store.
Mention oil to a public spirited
citizen of Bonnie now and it means
fight.

TWO ELEPHANTS AT LARGE
BIG BEASTS ESCAPED FROM THE
VAN AMBURG'S SHOWS.
Are Causing Terror and Doing Much
Damage to Property in the COun-
try Around ValdOsta.

A Valdosta dispatch of Thursday
says: Chief Dampier and Sheriff
Passmore both received kilograms
from Van-Amberg shows, dated at
White Springs, Fla, stating that two
of their elephants were loose and
coming back to Valdosta, and ask
ing that nobody be allowed to shoot
them, as they are perfectly tame.
From other sources it is learned that
the elephants escaped from Live Oak
Tuesday night while they were being
loaded in cars. The managers and
several citizens followed them, but
