HEN ROOST "ROBBERS"
ARE FOUND TO BE DOGS
Policeman and Neighbor Appre-
hend Mauraders in Early
Morning Raid

Charles Nichols, a fireman in hose
company No l, East Orange, helped to
capture two marauders early yesterday
morning in the heneoop of Policeman
Nelson Gamble, who lives near him, and
ne and Gamble took them to the police
station, where they were locked up.
Much of the glory OF the capture is
dlSslpated by reason of the fact that the
mauraders were four footed and of the
species canine. Nevertheless the feat
was creditable in many respects Mich
OILS, who laid off for "a hours on Satur-
day, was returning to his home about 1
o'clock yesterday morning, and when
passing the house occupied by Gamble
in Elmwood avenue he heard an uproar
in the hencoop.
Thinking the noise was caused by a
human burglar. Nichols reused his
neighbor and the two approached the
coop cautiously. All this time the noise
continued. as if every hen in the place
was being Killed.
Gamble opened the door and found a
bloodhound and poodle having a glO-
RUS time. Each had collar, and by
means of them Gamble led the dogs to
the calabooSe, where they are now
awaiting the sentence of death at the
hands of the relentless dog warden, En-
met r. Lee. The latter said today that
he thought somebody would appear and
claim the poodle. but the fate of the
bloodhound would probably be death

THE RECORD MENU

If that is not the record menu, there
will have to be an official recount Of
all the entries before Kansas will ac-
cept any other verdict. A poll Of this
bill Of fare shows 105 distinct items of
food. The game list has probably never
been equaled. Who ever sat down to
any table, anywhere, with buffalo, rab-
bit venison, moose, squirrel, elk, bear,
quail, duck. turkey, prairie chicken and
antelope to choose from? Who ever
showed his feet under a table holding
IA different kinds of cake and six diff
ferent kinds of pie? Who ever had
nine relishes to whet his appetite with2
Who ever could boast of practically
having everything eatable on earth be-
fore him at one time?
But there is one thing on, or rather
off. the bill that must not be over
looked-it was a dry dinner. 1t was
in Kansas. If there were any liquid
refreshments, Alexis and his friends
probably had to get them at. an adj
iourned meeting. A real close scru-

If Streams Were Brought to

There are comparatively few rivers
of any size or importance in Aus
tralia, and local learned professor of
science has been explaining the rea-
son. In consequence of the geologi-
cal formation of the commonwealth,
most of it's rivers are at present i'm
prisoned subterranean streams. He de-
clares that one of these underground
rivers is the largest in the world, be-
ing no less than 200 miles wide and
running right through the center of
the continent. II these vast supplies
of subterranean water were brought to
the surface and properly utilized, Aus
traIia would become the richest coun-
try in the world.-Wes Gazette.

"The collection OF these taxes was
often and sometimes largely made in
States other than those in which cotton
was grown, a s the table will show. The
partment show that most OF the tax
was collected in the cotton producing
States.
"Of the twenty-six States in which
these cotton taxes were collected, fif-
teen are not known as cotton. growing
States. but two or three OF the nom
cotton growing States. during the war,
did grow small quantity Of cotton; as.
for instance, In the States Of Illinois,
Missouri and Kentucky. It may be re-
marked that there Is some cotton now
being grown In the southern part OF
Missouri.
"The taxes collected in these States
where cotton was not produced were
on cotton which had been brought into
them from the Cotton States before the
taxes had been collected on 1t, and the
taxes were there assessed on the cot
ton In the hands Of the own err purclaas-
er or holder. in accordance with the
provision of the Federal statute.
1T has long been the opinion OF law
yers generally, and may say also the
view Of the Federal authorities. that
the cotton tax was levied and collected
in violation Of the Constitution. Ger
tainly. II the income tax law was un-
constitutional. the tax upon this farm
product. cotton. was undoubtedly un.
constitutional.
During the present Congress num-
Der Of bills have been introduced for
the purpose OF refunding, in some way
or another, this cotton tax money. Most
OF the bills seek to divert the funds to
some public purpose-tor the building
OF public roads, for public schools, etc.
The bill which / have introduced pro-
vldes that the Secretary OF the Treas
ury shall pay to the State OF Alabama
the slo.sss.o72.lo collected from the
people OF Alabama as tax on their cot
ton.
THE best medium through which
this tax money can be refunded In
my Judgment Is through the States re-
spectively from whose people It was
collected. The State can provide pro-
per and simple means for Its distrihu.
tion to It's rightful owners. The claim
ants would then have an opportunity
to assert their rights speedily and in
