How they came there. frankly they do not know, if you ask them why they were not married. they have to think before they answer. and then in all probability they will never tell you the truth. They say that they never had the time. which is absurd or that they were crossed in love which is generally untrue. Or that they never could make money enough. which is much more likely. -ff

A letter received at the local Of

ore of milling character have been
encountered in the tunnel, and as
these small streaks are becoming
more numerous, it is taken as an
indication that a larger and more

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-More
than 100000 corporations in the
United States will have to make
their returns in conformance with
the new corporation tax. Secretary
of the Treasury MacVeagh has is
sued a very comprehensive state
ment for the government of those
corporation officials. The state
Gment is calculated to cover any
questions of classification and dis
tinction which might arise in the
making of the reports, and it sets
forth in terse language what the
government expects.
Secretary McVeagh's statement
plainly begins with the statement
that the government expects re-
turns to be made to conform with
the intent of the law and that the
law had two intents-first that it
should be revenue producer for
the government, and second to levy
a tax of / per cent on the net in
come of corporations, as provided
in the law. After concise defin-
ition of what is considered net in
come within the law, the statement
says:
ut is clear that the purpose oil
the law was not to put a tax on re-
ceipts, but. a tax on profits, and
that the terms net income, and
gross income are used because
