Mystery of Hindu
 Trunk Explained
sTIge

A probable explanation of the Value of the trunk which three Hindus cap tured in Cochi-e county by Inspector Kinney, now detained ., the immi- grafton station at Tucson were trying to carry from Fl Paso to San Fran cisco has been advanced by c man who knows the Hindus and their .sys. He ssys that four months out of Cslcut,s sould not cure them of their religious superstitions, and his explanation of the trunk mystery is 5a.ed on superstition.
 This man ofYers the explanation that the Hindus had in the trunk their cooking implements. It is their religion that anything which Christian dogs" touch IS contsmin- sted, and they firmly believe that if they eat food cooked by Chris- tie ns, they will lose all chance of the happy land to come. Therefore they carry with them their own cooking and prepare their oan food, DO matter how low their condi- ten in sn adopted land,

LAST CALL FOR THE
 PERSONAL TAX PAYMENTS
Collector Robinson Says There Are Less Than 500 Who Have Failed to Pay Up.

On Wednesday, Tax Collector T. A. Robinson sent out the final call for the payment of the personal tax of 1910. He has had special blanks print ed for these notices, there being AT which he has mailed. On the stub he makes entry that he had on the date written made demand of the person for the payment of his personal tax due April 10. 1911, by depositing in postoffice in this city. postage paid. a written demand for said tax. The ad- dress is given, it being his last known place Of residence
 There are two slips attached to the stub. one being for the collector and the other for the taxpayer.
 There are no known reasons why the AT should not pay the tax and if all pay the sum of $954 will be received. The stubs are made out so they can be produced in court when the collec- tor is called upon to testify that the demand has been made.
 There was the sum of sI,s74 due for personal taxes by the book and there has been collected $5,724. There was a total of over SLIGO in errors.
 After this list of taxpayers has had reasonable time in which to appear the delinquents will have to be re- pcrted by law to the city attorney. In other cities it is costing from s6 to s9 to settle such bills in court. and it is considered much more ecJaom- ioal move to pay the s2 now than be brought before .the city court and be obliged to pay a number of dollars in addition.
