hundredth birthday anniversary. She

nothing so sweet as life as one gets

Miss Bell maintains that she has

she was young, the man never came
around whom she could marry aud
feel satisfied that she was doing the
right thing.
There was quite unique ceiebra-

for miles around gathered at her
nome, and 100 farmers fred 100 shots,
starting at O'Clock in the morning
That IS the hour at which Miss Bell
Was born.

vigil all night and day outside their
cabin. protecting the mother and chIl-
cren from Indians who were piilaging
the hamlets near GAINESVILLE. She
says she grew zip in the woods OF this
rcunty and has always chosen to re-
main here.

FARCICAL CITY DOCUMENTS.

He Mayor does not want a daily report on things municipal In
newspaper published by officials, and is well advised. But
why is he, and why have all his predecessors been, opposed
to having an adequate yearly report on things municipal3 We must
assume the opposition because no such report is or has been.
The reports by heads Of city departments would be a joke il IL
were not that good money is spent in printing them. Some are sew
erai years old before issued. When was the last report made by
the Department of Brdgesa The reports of the Department Of
Charities are curosties-long columns of undigcsted and trivial fig.
ures printed on heavy glazed paper, a grabbing Of big and little things
set down without any attempt to emphasize the one n subordinate
the other, and without the general view. The reports Of the De-
psrtment OF Parks are mere photograph albums interpreted with
routine records Other departments make q worse showing.
What these documents might be appears in the reports Of the
Federal Cabinet chiefs. These are comprehensive, interesting, terse.
They give the reader a picture Of government in the working. Score.
tsry Wilson's reports from the Department Of Agriculture are us
fascinating as a story-book. BY reading all the Cabinet reports the
citizen masters in best and briefest form the significant history Of
his country from year to year.
City reports can DO made more interesting than federal one,
because they deal moro directly with things more vital. Document,
that gave intelligent accounts Of the charities, the docks. the policing
the FIRE fighting. the tenomenthouing and the schooling Of this
town would be eagerly read, and would make for good citizenship
The annual budget-shows disclose the possibilities Of such graphic
presentation, and their subject matter might well be dieested and
issued in book form at a moderate price. It would command n
wide sale.

REFLECTIONS ON THE DOG TAX.

it has, the right Of the State to collect a license foe of AZ on
. every dog, and turn over the money to tho Society for the Pre-.

The trend Of public action must BIO toward more rigid repuaoon.
not laxcr, where dogs are concerned. The responsibility Of dog owners
fosthe acts Of their "pcts" must more sharply be insisted upon. In
the country responsibility has been shifted upon the public, the farm
