BEN BUTLER'S BLUFF.
Il Was We'll Worked and Completely
Fooled General binaham.

Il Was Well Worked and Completely
Fooled General Bingham.
General John A. Bingham was a
member of the military tribunal that
tried Mrs. Surratt and the Lincoln as
sassination conspirators.
After the trial In the subsequent de.
bates in the house General B. r. But
Ter frequently charged that the com.
mission had arrived at an unjust YER
dict and had convicted an innocent
woman. In q memorable debate he
boldly proclaimed that II the contents
of diary which had been found on
the dead body Of J. Wilkes Booth were
ever made public 1t would disclose the
fact that it contained the proof OF
Mrs. Surratt's innocence, which proof
had been UNANIMOUSLY suppressed by the
commission. When General Bingham
made movement as though be would
repel such an accusation, Butler dra'
matically drew a memorandum book
from bis breast pocket and held 1t
aloft, but did not utter q word. Bing-
ham naturally supposed that Butler
had copy Of a diary such 40 he had
spoken of. As a matter Of fact the
book contained nothing but blank
leaves. General Butler was just blu6-
ing.
The diary was in possession Of &c.
rotary Stanton, but President johnson
finally demanded It. It was IN inter
estine book, but it threw no light upon
the great conspiracy.

MONSTER WHALES.
One That Swallowed Whole Shark
Fifteen Feet Long.

one mat SWALLOWED "nosO onaT"
Fifteen Feet Long.
Frank T. Bullen. the noted writer OF
sea tales, in one of his lectures said
that in New Zealand he once saw a
whale opened and there were found
in its stomach a number of fish which
must simply have swum down its
throat, and among them was Il shark
fifteen feet long and nine feet round.
The huge Greenland whale was de-
scribed. Mr.. Bullen asked bis au'
dience to imagine monster of 25O
tons and told how such one was
taken on a voyage in which he took
part. enough whalebone being taken
out of his head to pay good dividend
on the voyage. For six months In the
year this particular kind of whale.
which was the most helpless Of all.
led a life Of alarums and excursions.
for he was always being chased.
A third kind Of whale. the hump.
backed whale, was shown in picture
jumping from the water. and Mr.. Bull
len explained that this was no indi-
cation Of joy in life. They were, in
fact, If not driven out of their minds,
certainly driven out Of the water by
parasites adhering to their bodies.
This particular whale was greatly de-
voted to its young. and If man hap
pened to kill a calf he needed all his
ingenuity to escape from the mother.
On one occasion f1fty-two boats went
after whales in the bay Of California
and by accident a calf was killed. In
one hour the parent destroyed fifty Of
the ffty-two boats. killing number
Of men. and then sailed out to sea
without q scratch.

The following from the Sioux City
Journal of recent issue, is from the
pen of Captain Grant Marsh:
l have a letter from a part in Bill
lings, Mont, seeking information
about the wreck of the steamer Kate
Sweeney, which sunk at point sixty
miles above where Sioux City now Is,
in 1855. 1t is known to pilots as
Kate Sweeney bend.
/ was thinking that little story
about that and some other things
which happened the next season might
interest some of the many young read
ers of The Journal.
The boat was st. Louis and Glas'
cow packet. Capt. p M. Chouteau, OF
the American Fur company, bought
the boat that spring to go to Fort
Pierre for a load of furs, and made
the up trip all right. On coming down
it struck an obstruction at the above
named point and was a total loss ex'
cept the cabin. Capt. Chouteau was
master, Charley Dripps, half breed
Indian from Kansas City, was pilot,
and william Anderson was mate
After the boat sunk Capt. Chouteau
took the small boats with the officers
and baggage of the crew to 60 to Coun'
Gil Bluffs in order to get Transports
ton from there to st. Louis.
There was a Frenchman by the
name Of Brughier with an Indian fam
lily, living at the mouth of the Big
Sioux river. The arrangement was for
William Anderson, the mate, and his
men to walk over to Brughier's where
Captain Chouteau was to stop and
make arrangements for transportation
for them to Council Bluffs, as there
was no Omaha then. They never
were heard of afterwards. 1t is sup
posed that the Indians carried them
off as prisoners, as none of their guns
were found afterwards. William Bren
mex, who was owner and partner In
two boats with me, married Ander'
sons widow in st. Louis. DR.. Cook
from St. Louis, who settled in Sioux
City, went to the wreck, and I am in
formed that the lumber he got from
the cabin built the first house in
Sioux City.

Keep the Fire burnina.

It used to be the custom in some old
English inns for the fire to be kept
constantly burning day and night.
One such inn mentioned in "Old Coun.
try Inns" was the Plow. at Upper
Dicker, in Sussex, and at the Chequers
inn, near Osmotherly, in Yorkshire,
the hearth fire has been burning unin-
terruptedly for at least 1870 years. The
tradition points to time when the
public house was necessarily resorted
to for purposes Of all kinds.

, were open to inspection. but in 1916
congress enacted legislation providing
that the returns should be open to in
spection only upon rules and regula
tions approved by the president.
The first action in the courts to
test the constitutionality of the law
was begun in the United States cir
cult court for the district of Vermont.
A woman began it. Stella P. Flint,
guardian of the property Of Samuel N.
Stone, Jr., a stakeholder in the Stone
Tracy company of Windsor, VT, began
an action to have the company re-
strained from paying the tax. She
claimed that the tax was unconst1tu'
tional. Her attorney, Maxwell Evarts'
brought the case to the supreme court,
after the circuit court had declined
to hold the tax unconstitutional.
When the Stone-Tracy case came up
for argument before the supreme
court in March, 1910, fourteen other
cases likewise raising the validity OF
the law and decisions sustaining the
constitutionality Of the tax, had reach.
ed the court. They were advanced
and heard with the original case. Be-
cause presumably of vacancies on the
bench, the cases were restored to the
docket for reargument. This reargu-
ment occurred in January, 1911.
The constitutionality of the tax was
attacked from all the points from
which any tax possible of enactment
by congress could be attacked. Prom
inent among the objections to the law
was the argument that the tax was a
direct tax, not apportioned, according
to the constitution. Some dubbed the
tax q Corporation income tax" and in
valid for the same reasons that the
income tax was declared unconstitu-
tional in 1895. Others claimed that
it was a tax on state franchises and
hence was an unconstitutional inter.
ference with the sovereignty of the
states. Another line Of objections
was based on the argument that as an
excise tax, it was not uniform but
contained unconstitutional classified.
lions. The publicity features of the
returns were attacked as taking pri.
vate property without compensation.
To all Of these objections, the depart
ment of justice, through the late Sol
icitor General, Lloyd w. Bowers, at
the first hearing, and through his sue
cessor, Frederick w. Lehman, at the
second hearing, made answer.
After the argument of the fifteen
cases, the court took up three other
cases involving the tax. In these the
principal controversy was over the in
depreciation of the law. The leading
point was whether the tax was to be
imposed on Boston trusts" organized
to hold real estate, but not incorporat.
ed. The Boston concerns contended
that the tax should be assessed only
on concerns organized under the stat
utes of the United States, states or
territories. The government argued
that business concerns organized und.
er the common law were included
within those meant to be taxed.
