Tax Receipts Increase

Up to this time about 1500 poll taxes lave been paid in this county. This is more than usual to be collected at this time. Under the law the polls can be paid up to February 1. It is believed that by that time over 20O0 will have been col lected.
 Tax Collector George c. Hardwick stated today that during the month of December he collected over $15O0O Tn state and county taxes. This is record break CT Never before has this amount of taxes been collected in this county during any one month. The collections will ex- ceed. those of former years by several thousands of dollars. aThis is due large ly to the increased valuation of property in the Decaturs, on account of the nu- merous buildings and various improve ments and the general advance or ei'y real estate during the past tax year.

AdaIr Denies Ills Guilt

Jack P Adair, the young Anniston printer who is under bond on charge of being responsible for the wrecking of the Anniston Hot Blast plant about two months ago, has been the object of suspicion in connection with the wreck ing of the Star plant Monday night, hay ing been employed at that office as a substitute linotype operator for night work after having made bond in the case made against him by the Hot Blast.
 This turn in the case resulted from the fact that Adair was the only man em- ployed at the shop on the evening on which the wreck occurred. He did not come to work Tuesday but came to the Star office with his brother this morn ing and made an emphatic denial of his guilt, stating that the plant was in good order when he left work Monday night. Adair belongs to an excellent family and his friends are trying to exonerate him in this case, as in the Hot Blast case.
 No arrests have been made as the au- thorities are entirely without clue.
