The Humeston Entertainment.

The Humeston Entertainment.
Arthur Humeston is a fun maker,
and the large audience that greeted
him at the auditorium OF the Young
Mems Christian Association last night,
gave him inspiration to lift him to his
best. Besides he was reinforced by
the quaint and amusing Samson, the
musician and comedian, and the two
made a team worth laughing at.
Humeston interspersed the enter
tainment with medleys of humorous
stories, sharp hits and comic songs,
forming varied effect which kept his
hearers in continuous mood of good
humor and laughter.
The musical numbers were excellent
as executed by himself and Mr.. Sam
SON. The musis on the goblets was a
pretty number as soft at times as the
dropping of musical waters, especially
was this SO in the playing of "Massa's
in the Cold, Cold Ground AS an inn
litator of the several races he showed
extraordinary versatility. Various
musical instruments were used during
the evening. in the manipulation OF
each he and his associate. Mr.. Sam

evening OF fun, the Y M. c. A. made
splendid selection in bringing this
/ jolly combination to Keokuls.

now exercised by the Minnesota Tax
Commission. Broadly stated the prin-
Icipal duty of the commission so far as
Republication is concerned is to equal
lie the assessed valuation Of real and
personal property as between the
counties Of the state.
The commission sitting as a board Of
equalization meets annually on the Sc
cond Tuesday of September and must
complete it's work before the first
Monday of January following.
The law gives to the commission
powers as board of equalization, viz !:
LIST. To raise or lower, as to them
may seem just, the aggregate valua-
ton of real estate in any town, vii
lage, city or county by adding to or
deducting therefrom such per cent as
will in their Judgment put the same
upon an equality with like property
in the other counties of the state.
End. To raise or lower the assess
ed valuation of any tract or LOT of
real property in any town, village or
city to an equality with like property.
In case of raise, however, notice of
their intention and of a time and place
of hearing must first be given by mail.
3rd To raise or lower the aggre.
gate valuation of any class of person
al property in any county, town, vii.
lage or city by adding to Or deducting
from the same such per cent as will in
their judgment put the same upon an
equality with like property in the
state.
4th To raise or lower the personal
property assessment of individuals
firms or corporations as returned by
the county boards of equalization
which they may believe to be under
valued or overvalued. But in case OF
raise notice of their intention and OF
time and place for hearing must first
be given to such persons.
In addition to the above the com
mission has many powers relating tt
the assessment of property which will
be more fully treated in a subsequent
article.
