tall and picturesque form of Orren
Bre1by could be seen trudging eau
tlously up the rungs, while the mus
cular arms of Messrs. Caffa1, OF and

"O-O-O--h"
"A-a-a-h!"
Isn't this awful"
And other CALCULATIONS of dread and
tear thudded upon the otherwise Silly
night from the crowd of anxious spec

was at the top of the ladder-good!
The window was opened But the

Pull the screen up" softly shouted
a spectator from below in a half
whisper-Mr. OF the most anxious
one there, perhaps, except Mrs. OF,
no doubt. Orren did as told, and up
went the screen. Then with a small
kick, push and a shove, he was in
side. Hist! Was it burglar? Who
knows! Cautious now, Orren, eau
tlous Step by step he stepped, and
stepping more and more each time he
stepped, he finally stepped into the
upstairs hall, which he opened
stealthily Then all of those on the
outside, upheld by the brave deed Of
Orren, stepped up themselves and en-
tered the house, including Mrs and
Mrs. OF. Just then voice from the
outside came on the midnight air.

Ple.ur. Case Referred to Turner.

Stating that Mrs. Emma Jane Hol.
nngsworth Of Dayton, painter of four
portraits Of ex-governors, had declined
to be questioned by him regarding the
voucher for $1,000 which had been
paid her, Attorney General Hogan an
nounced he would turn the statehouse
art trouble over to Prosecuting At
toiney Turner for investigation.
Mrs. Hollingsworth was to have gone
to the attorney generals Office by ap-
pointment. to be interrogated concern
ing the transaction. Instead, her at
torney, Robert w. Mccoy, conferred
with Hogan, telling him he had not
had time to go into the subject fully
and was not prepared to advise his
client whether to make a statement
to the attorney general or not. He
asked that Hogan defer the investiga-
ion until Monday.
Mccoy understood Hogan to agree
to this. Hogan did not SO understand.
He said the artist was a clerk in the
state library and so was a part of the
state administration, and he saw no
reason why she should not come to
the legal adviser of the state govern
ment and talk freely If she had an in
nocent story to tell, instead Of con-
sulting an attorney whether she should
submit to a personal interview with
the attorney general.
Accordingly, Hogan decided to refer
the whole muss to the prosecuting at
torney for such action as might be
found proper after examination.

Boys for Fair Police.

Secretary A. P. Sandles of the state
board of agriculture is being flooded
with inquiries concerning his project
for having 8S boys, one from each
county, help police the state fair
grounds and run the big fair.
"That trip to Columbus is going to
be an event for more than one boy"
said Sandles. Some may never have
been here before and the lucky ones
will dream of that trip days in ad-
vance. On my first trip to the state
fair l couldn't sleep for many nights.
To come to Columbus to the fair was
just too wonderful to imagine"
Work on the grounds for few
hours every day is to be literally re-
warded with sightseeing exhibitions.
Sandles has planned trips to the Hart
man farm and to various places of in
terest about town.
The boys representing the various
counties are to be selected by vote,
and the secretary is sure there will be
lively interest when the voting time
comes. His general plan contemplates
the giving of vote to masters OF
oranges, presidents of farmers insti-
tutes, heads of farmers organizations,
superintendents of Sunday schools and
of other organizations. which have real
interest in boys. The net result, he
thinks, will be wider interest in the
state fair and an even larger attend
ance than has made the show notable
in other years.

The blue racer has smooth, shining

Both of these snakes are commonly
found in meadows where they have

Prof. Surface made an extended

The cabinet announcement was that

In the British house of commons and
Premier Caillaux's advice to the
French to keep cool and be prudent
relieved the tension at moment
when relief was most needed and the
discreet military preparations Of the

apprehension that war was possible.
These preparations include orders to

Small Taxpayer to Be Relieved.

Columbus.-Small taxpayers have
been contributing five-sixths of
the entire cost Of government
in Ohio. Railroads and other
utilities have paid the one-sixth. Next
year, the railroad and utility compa-
MES share will be doubled. The home
owner and small taxpayer will save
one-ifth Of former payments, and his
portion of the total tax payments will
drop two-thirds. This is the estimate
made by the state tax commissioner
Attorney John H. Clarke of Cleve-
land, who appeared before it for the
Nickel Plate railroad. As matter of
fact. the saving to the small home
owner should be greater, because in
this estimate are included with him
all corporations and other taxpayers
who report direct to the county auditor.
1t is expected that when the tax
commission finishes with the new tax
duplicates, these interests will show
valuation increases in keeping with
the average gains of three and four
hundred per cent. being made in util-
tiles. Attorney Clarke said that this
year the Nickel Plate paid $4,000 in
taxes in Ohio. Next year, the Nickel
Plates total Ohio tax payments will
be $251, 900, Practically that entire
class of property is up against the
same situation. Last year, the Nickel
Plates Ohio tax value was $4,700,000.
This year 1t has been put down for
$25, 100000, the states share of total
estimated value of $55,O0O.000 for the
entire road.
Clarke admitted that this was in
line with the aggregate New York
market values of the roads securities.
The road made a voluntary report OF
its Ohio property at $13,500,000, to
which was added $4,000, 900 for credits,
a jump of $50 per cent. over last year,
but the commission nearly doubled the
figure. Clarke, like representatives of
the Chesapeake & Ohio of Indiana,
Detroit, Toledo and Ironton and other
roads, complained that the commits
sion's factor of 69.7 per cent. for OPP
GRAFTON was unfair. The road claims
that operation this year will take 80
per cent Of gross receipts. The COM
mission is working on reports for last
year. Any changes in conditions this
year will work to alter the factor next
year.
