A MEAsLEY ROMANCE.
Disease Attacks Girl En- Route to
Join Sweetheart

New York, oct. AFTER falling in
love i'm Holland with a Holland sweet
heart living i'm America whom she had
never seen, but whose letters proved
him worthy of any maids devotion,
Miss Martha ID. Levie packed her
trunk in Rotterdam and bought sec
ond cabin passage on the Potsdam of
the Holland American line, for New
York.
First she wrote to her flance that
she was going to do this because
she wanted to get acquainted with
him as soon as possible. and she ask
ed him TO be at the Hoboken pier
when the steamship Potsdam arrived
yesterday afternoon.
He was at he pier, but the bride
to-be wasn't because at Quarantine
the health officer discovered that she
had the measles. The sturdy, serious
appearing young Hollander refused to
give his name. He was greatly dis
turbed when told his sweetheart had
been sent by the authorities to Swim
bourne Island and asked the quickest
way TO get there.
The young couple were introduced
by mail through the kind office of a
mutual friend one year ago. They ex-
changed photographs swapped pedi-
grees and then decided to mary.

NO COMMERCIAL TREATY.

Toxic, oct. 4.-With the close of the
the new commercial treaties which ia
pan expects TO conclude before the end
of the year. Every power except Am
erica Is now engaged I'm the negotia-
tion of these treaties.
There Is good reason to believe that
when the turn of the United States
comes, II a clause regulating Japanese
Immigration Is insisted upon Japan
viii define to make a treaty. on the
ground that her immigration Is now
being satisfactorily regulated and that
SO long as this continues "a treaty OIL
the subject would be humiliating.
In England there is much criticism
OF Japan, II being declared that Japan's
ally receives no advantages. Experts
here point out that Japan must, In
self-protection care for her export
trade and that the greater part OF tiat
trade Is with the United States and
france. Hence Il would be impossible
10 give any country an advantage, be-
cause this would at once lay Japan's
exports open to the maximum tariff,
where now her exports enjoy the mini
mum both In America and France.
IL Is quite possible that In various
cases no treaties will be made. Some
OF the officials who have the matter
IN hand here appear not to attach
great Importance to commercial treat
les. and nnfnt hat Itrffa m
ana the United States are carrying on
business with number OF other coun-
tries without any treaties.

Secretary Lord of Tax Commits
sion Says Inequalities Exist
in Both Lower and Up
per Peninsulas
BOOST OF NEARLY MILLION
This Will Be Necessary Before Ads-
quate Taxes Are Levied-New
Law for General Revision
Being Prepared.

Detroit, Oct. 4.-George Lord, sec
candidate for the Legislature on the
Republican ticket. is working on a
bill for general revision of the tax
laws of the state. 1t has long been
known that the laws are too lax and
that millions of property escape taxa
tion.
But Mr.. Lord, for the first time,
makes public just what conditions are.
According TO his figures, which have
been carefully compiled from the rec
ords of the tax Office the property of
the state should be increased $774,S62,-
S7S i'm order To bring il all up to a
real ad valorem basis.
MIR. Lord acknowledges that the
mining counties of the upper penin-
sula are inadequately taxed but makes
the point that an investigation OF the
lower peninsula reveals that all sorts
of property. real, industrial and per-
sonal, are escaping i'm the lower penin-
sula, and that majority of the coun-
ties are not assessed at more than so
per cent of their value.
Valuation Increased.
During the past summer. largely due
TO the efforts of Mr. Lord. the valua-
ton OF the state has been increased
about s5O.OO0.00O, but he says that this
is but a starter.
The significant part of the matter
is that the railroads and telephone
companies are now assossed on what
practically amounts to a cash basis
and that II they should take the mat
ter into court they would be able to
upset the enire tax sysem of Michi-
gan.
This they have threatened to do and
they will undoubtedly seek legal re-
dress If something is not done by the
next legislature and the state board
of equalization, which meets next sum-
mer.
The only two counties I'm the lower
peninsula which are assessed at nearly
cash value are Wayne and Kent. the
containing the two largest
cities. Jackson was raised this sum-
mer and is in much better shape than
the other counties which contain the
larger cities of the state.
The Remedy.
The remedy" says Mr.. Lord, '1ies
In an entire revamping of the tax
laws of the state. but particularly i'm
broadening the powers of the state
tax commission. Local assessing is
too much controlled by prejudice and
politics and il is astounding how some
of the assessing in Michigan is done.
The state tax commissioner should
have power at any time to so into any
county and compel the local assessing
officer to raise the assessment and
Il he refuses 10 obey to prosecute
him; this i'm addition to it's general
power of revision and equalization
over the property in the counties.
ITO fully correct the evils which
now exist the constitution should be
SO amended as to take the assessing
power from the supervisor of the
township and place IL in the hands
IF a county assessor, who would work
with the city assessors I'm fixing the
value of the property of a county"

THE AFTERNOON MEETING
Former japanese Naval Officer Makes
Stirring Address-TeIIs OF Japan's
Need OF Christianity

The meeting in the gymnasium at
st. Johns yesterday afternoon was a
splendid gathering of the represen-
tatives of the different denomina-
tions of the city, and the same feel
ings of unity and interest in the mis-
sionary cause dominated it.
Mayor James F. Strange presided
and commented upon the inspiration
furnished by the splendid gathering
of men the previous evening. de
mentioned the fact that men of all
denominations and of all callings had
come together in manner to thrill
everyone present, and that no meet
ing of the kind had ever taken place
in annapolis.
The first speaker as Mr.. Hobun Yo-
koyama,a a former member of the Jap
anese Navy, who spoke on Japan s
Need of Christianity. He told of
conditions in his own land and of the
several religions which bound his peo-
pie. He ssid that none of them
could give the things given by Chris
tianity, and that in many instances
the priests of the other religions were
utterly corrupt. He spoke of Japan s
need for Christianity to improve the
position of women and in every way
to raise the standard of its people,
and said that we might just as much
question whether our own children
needed Christianity as to ask if Japan
needed it.
Mr.. Yokoyama said that people
wanted to live in good neighborbood
and have good people living near
them. Japan is your neighbor," he
said, land you should desire to give
her the things that will make her
a good neighbor. You have found
Christ, you must find your neighbor
and give Christ to him.
Mr.. Hobart Smock, of baltimore,
delivered one of the most telling
speeches of the convention, his SUBJ
ject being business Methods in
Missionary Finance" Mr.. Smock
impaired much interest to this phase
of the question and in very forci-
BILE and interesting manner showed
how little Christians were doing in
this line, dwelling particularly on
the fact that Annapolis church mem
bers were giving but forty-nine cents
year on the average. He outlined
a method of systematic giving.
The other speakers of the after
noon were: Mr.. Harry S. Tyler, of
Baltimore, who spoke on MEN and
Opportunity, and John d. Worthing-
ton, of Bel Air, whose subject was
Stewardship of Business Taleuts and
Possession. Both delivered excel
lent addresses.
