In the Jungle.

Due notice having been sent out
over all the cables OF the sea, the
phones of the earth and that fine
aerial communication which is com.
mon to the natives OF Africa, 1t is
fair to INFER that the lions, and the
rest OF them to-day, now will seek
their lairs and remain in hiding. To-
day begins the hunt!
From the Kapits Plains to Nairobi
the word has got. The Hunter is on
the tramp. Mighty detonations pre-,
cede his coming. Brass bands at.
tend his movements. Tom.toms
from China, martial music from Glib
raltsr, the blair ings of brass blasts
from all the Mediterranean and the
Red, accompany this omnipotent
progress.
Why, then, should not the Jungle
people seek their lurking places?
Why, then, should not those who
have been accustomed to roam the
desert as its master acknowledge the
presence OF new and mightier con.
queror than he who first swept
across their lands the sword OF
Islam, Why not? But we shall see.

adopted TO get even" with one an
other, reports the Review.
Several days ago VIII Shumsker
complained that someone had tried
TO poison a S400 team Of mares.
Mr.. Shumaker had figured In law
case, and iactionsllsm seems to have
resulted from the celebrated lisiga-
sion. When he went about his chores
the other morning he found that
some chops had been placed in the
troughs at his barn, and knowing
that he had no such food about the
place he began an investigation. The
horses had eaten none OF the iced,
and Mr.. Shumaker at once suspected
that some one had been endeavoring
30 poison the fine team. He took a
portion OF the feed to a chemist, who
tested the food stuffs. The chemist
says that the chops contained cal
cium sulphate which is apparently
principally plaster OF Paris or stucco
material.
Mr.. Shumsker will probe into this
matter and ascertain who placed the

A Kick From Adrian.
ADRIAN, No , April 22Np. 1909.

ADRIAN, No, APRIL 22ND, 1909.
ED. BUTLER WEEKLY TRfEs:-Just
at this time l hear a number OF the
good citizens, who have been stung
By the actions Of the County Equal
iEstion Boards work, In raising
their assessment. Is does look as II 1t
was useless 30 elect and swear men in
office to do that work; men that are
personally acquainted with ell of the
surroundings, II their honest labors
are TO be ignored and the value of
she property passed on by men that
do not know anything about It
Some property In Adrian has been
raised above It's real cash value, in.
stead OF being 40 per cent ofi.s value
as other property is assessed. Some
OF the old timers would like to know
why all OF this Is necessary. Wevery
we'll know shat when three-iourths OF
this county was unimproved and the
lands assessed at from SO to SO per
acre and before Rich Hill, Adrian
and dozen OF other towns and cities
In the county, besides the town OF
Butler, which has grown from a it,
tie village to a beautiful city and the
many thousands OF dollars OF per.
sonsl propersyithst have, been added
to our assessment lists that we built
two iails, one court house and
some fifty large bridges across the
rivers and creeks OF the county, paid
them all and had plenty OF money
In the treasury. And to-day we pay
the same number OF county officers,
with one addition, that OF county
school commissioner and with all OF
the Increased assessments, We are
to-day In debt. Oh yes, | know
thatthat was before the county went
dry. Yes, perhaps there was as
many as three or four saloons In tbe
county that paid about one hundred
dollars for six months license, but In
lieu ei that the land that Adrian IL
on was assessed at about eight hun
dred dollars, and 1t now holds an
assessment OF perhaps more than
one hundred and fifty thousand, be.
sides the other towns and villages In
the county shat adds to the list the
same. But the arguments that we
have so many more roads to look
after than we had In those good old
Democratic days. Yes, but we have
township boards to do that. Oh,
but they say that is what cuts so on
our revenue Is the township assess
ments; but Il you will only remember
We had township organiza ton dur
ing those good old Democratic day,
only when our masters could succeed
In killing 1t, so all our monies would
go into the county treasurer's office
80 return no more. One thing sure,
we all know that at least a part OF
the work done by the Board is I'M
just and out OF all reason, but we do
not know why It becomes necessary
TO Ignore the work OF our sworn Of
ticers In that way to raise the assess,
ment. A certain per cent on all alike
would be reasonable and we think
lawful. JUSTICE.
