Report Of Agent Pepper.

That the income tax Of Great Britain,
which has been in force almost continu-
ously since 1912. yielded more revenue in
the last fiscal year than any other form

yields moro than half the revenue pro-
duced by the income tax, are two OF the
interesting statements made in the report
Of Special Agent Pepper of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor, which has
been sent to Congress. For the year 1908
the income tax produced for the govern
ment $1G5 O0O. coo, being levied on a popu-
lation Of 44,500.OOO. while the inheritance
tax yielded $94, $50, 600.
Incomes under q thousand dollars are
exempt from taxation. and graduated
abatements are allowed on incomes be-
tween $1,000 and $500. The income tax
is levied on the profits accruing from
lands, tenements, heritages and the occu-
patton of them: on all profits from inter-
est. annuities, dividends and shares of an
nuities payable to any person or corpora
tion out Of any public revenue; on the an
nual profits accruing to any person in the
United Kingdom from any kind OF prop
erty and from any profession, trade or
employment. and upon every public Office
or employment Of profit, and upon all pen
sions paid out of the revenue Of the gov
ernment. For the past few years the rate
of taxation has been one shilling on the

Table When Homcidal Frenzy
Came Over Neurasthenic.

PARIS, May 29.-David Henderson OF
New York, aged fifty-one, last night shot
his daughter dead in cafe here and then
committed suicide. The dead woman s
name was Vera. She was twenty-five
years old.
With Mr.. Henderson in the restaurant
were his wife and three daughters and a
governess. All had supper together. and
the party was most cheerful. There was
nothing to indicate from the father 8
demeanor during the meal what Nas to
follow.
Fires Without Warning.
At the end of the meal Mr.. Henderson
rose from the table, lit cigar. opened
the window and walked the length of
the room once or twice. Then suddenly
and without warning ne fired four shots
at random in the direction of the table,
one of which struck his daughter Vera
in the back of the neck, fracturing her
spine and killing her instantly.
Next, before the terrified women could
interpose. Henderson turned the weapon
upon himself and blew out his brains,
falling across hts daughters body.
Those who witnessed the tragedy were
Henderson daughter Olga. aged nine
teen, and Gladys, aged ten; his wife. who
is a Russian woman, and Olga Lepretre.
governess.
Victim Of Neurasthenia.
The last says that Mr.. Henderson had
been a sufferer from neurasthenia, and
on that account a source of great anxiety
to his wife, who took him about with
her to stores and restaurants in an en-
deavor to combat the disease. She says
Mr.. Henderson owned several villas near
Paris and country house at Villers-Cot-
terets.
1t is understood also that he owned
much real estate in and around New
York. He was tall and elegantly dressed.
and evidently wealthy. With his family
1t had been Mr.. Hendersons custom to
visit Paris annually. He has son. Rene
Henderson. now in New York.
The restaurant which was the scene of
the tragedy is known as the Tranquil
Father. and is a we'll known supper place
here. The Hendersons never failed to
visit the restaurant frequently during
their visits TO the capital.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henderson and their
children arrived in Paris from the United

Our Habitual Thought Radiation.

From success Magazine.
Some people bear for years bitter
hatred or a great jealousy toward some
one or more persons. and this mental at
titude units the possessor for giving
out the maximum of his ability and de-
stroys his happiness. Not only this, but
he rsdiates his inimical atmosphere, thus
prejudicing people against him, arousing
antagonisms and constantly handicappinE
himself all along the line.
Just think OF the blighting. corroding
influence Of carrying some hatred or
great fancied wrong or grudge against
another constantly in the mind and con-
tinually trying to get square with him.
Why, In little while 1t would cut the
efficiency Of q genius down to mediocrity
The mind must be free from bitterness
jealousy, hatred, envy and uncharitable
thoughts; free from everything which
trammels II. Or pay the penalty in impair
ing efficiency, inferior work
Nc one can carry grudge against an
cther. bitterness of any kind, a desire
to get even with him, without very dis
astrous results in his own mind, his own
ehhciency and happiness.
Mental discords whittle life away at a
fearful rate: they vase energies, DESTROY
happiness and age one very rapidly.
