INHERITANCE TAXES
INCREASE REVENUES

1t is estimated by the Treasurer s de-
partment that if inheritance taxes shall
continue to come in during the rest of
the fiscal year at the rate they have
been paid during the past month, not
less than $4,000 or $4,000 will be col
lected by the Territory and added to
it's income from this source alone Dur
ing the past thirty days the collections
of inheritance taxes have amounted to
$4139.36, and there is a good deal more
in sight. The decision of the Supreme
Court, rendered yesterday, that the in
heritance tax law is valid means that
the Mary Dame Hall estate, in which
case the decision was rendered, will
have to pay 5000, except in the i'm
probable event of the case being car
ried to the Supreme Court of the United
States.
Another big estate which has as yet
paid no Inheritance tax is the Camp
bell estate. The estimated amount which
this estate will have to pay is about
POVVps iS mug 1ASiSA CopeabC, eto
told in another column, owes the Ter
ritory about $4,000 Inheritance tax,
according to the estimate of the Attor-
ney-General' IS department.
There are a number of other large
estates which have not as yet paid the
inheritance tax. One check for $1,000
was received by Deputy Treasurer Ha-
pal yesterday morning, which was in
payment of an inheritance tax. Others
are expected to come in soon, as a re-
suit of the opinion rendered by the Su-
preme Court.
Much of the work along the line of
collection of inheritance taxes has been
done by Deputy Attorney-General SUIT
ton, and Attorney Hemenway
figures that, in view of the fact that
Mr.. Sutton has, in addition, brought
suits for the payment of delinquent
sewer rates, which have already brought
in over $4,000 to the treasury, the re-
tention of Mr.. Sutton in the department
has been profitable thing for the Ter
ritory.

WATER is TAKEN FROM
ROOTS OF EUCALYPTUS
Aborigines of Queensland De-
pended Upon the Trees

One OF the curiosities of natural his
tory in the colony of Queensland is the
provision by nature of a supply of
water in the roots of certain trees.
On these roots the aborigines formerly
depended for their water supply for
several months of the year. Now the
splendid system of artesian bores, many
OF which deliver millions of. gallons
each "a hours. has provided plentiful
supplies both for whites and the rem
nants of the native races. The position
of the eucalyptus roots was ascertained
by the blacks by repeatedly jabbing
the point of spear or sharpened stick
into the soft earth at distance of
about six or eight feet from the trunk
of the tree. The soil was then removed
with a wooden shovel for some 20 feet
or more and the root cut off at either
end. This was then cut up into lengths
of about Is inches, the bark knocked
off and the lengths stood on end in
many cases the blacks used a bag
made of the entire skin of the male
wailaby. AS soon as all these pieces
were placed on end the operator, be gin
ming with the first placed, put the end
in his mouth and by vigorous puff
expelled the remaining water into the
eceptacle.-London Globe.

JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN
WAS ONCE DRAMATIST
Distinguished Peer Wrote and
Staged a Play

1t is not generally known, observes
m. A. p" in the London Globe, that
Joseph Chamberlain once appeared in
the role of dramatist. This was a
good many years ago, and in those
days he had a strong taste for anna
teur theatricals, in which he played
more than once with marked success.
For one performance he wrote one
act play entitled WHO'S Who, in
which he himself performed the part
of a Frenchman.
He is also said to have written a
three act modern comedy of political
life. but no amount of money will per-
suade him TO give the world this un-
acted piece
