Tax Claim Before Commissioners.

The liability of purchasers of personal
property upon which taxes had not been
Paid encited a lively discussion at the
meeting of the board of county commits
sioners. The case is that of the August
Clothing company whose claims against
been held up on account of the nonpay-
ment of the personal property taxes OF
the A J. August company, former own
ers of the ''Toggery.'
The county has held that the August
Clothing company, as purchasers of part
OF the stock of the defunct Toggery are
liable for unpaid taxes on the stock for
the years 1911 and 1912.
Frank B. Simms. of the county board
believes that any Part CT the property
found can be held for taxes that are un-
paid. 1t is expected that the advice of
the County attorney will be sought before
the case is decided. If Simnls version is
adhered to the August Clothing company
will be liable for the taxes to the full
value of whatever stock was purchased
from the Toggery.

ECZEMA ALL OVER BODY

IT'S East ST., San Francisco, Cali
used the Cuticura Remedies while in
business in San Francisco before the
earthquake and fire. l was terrible
sufferer from eczema for several years.
I had it all over my body except my
hands, neck and face, my legs and
arms being the worst. | had to put
stockings on my hands at night to
keep from scratching, and whenever
I did scratch the parts burnt like fire.
My limbs got so bad that from my an
kles to my knees there wasn't par
ticle of skin on them, and the flesh it.
self turned perfectly blue and raw,
continually throwing off a moisture,
and l had to keep them wrapped in
oiled silk cloth to keep my under,
clothes from sticking fast to my limbs.
II tried all kinds of ointments, -,
-, and a thousand others, and took
all kinds of internal medicine, but
with no relief Then I bathed my body
with Cuticura Soap and kept it anoint-
ed with Cutfcura Ointment and my
skin is now as smooth as baby's.
They cured me completely" (Signed)

EnoIand,s Oldest Bowling Green.

Which is our oldest recreation?
There are not wanting archeoligists
who profess to be able to trace refer
ences to football and baseball on
Egyptian moral tablets. However,
when it comes to actual records, the
fine old English game of bowls would
appear to be as old as any.
Southampton, Eng, has records
showing that one of the local bowling
green's was in existence in 1899.
Many interesting customs are asso-
ciated with the game on this historic
green. Every summer fire jack"
competition is held, and an order of
knighthood is conferred on the win
ner, who kneels in the center Of the
green while the other players gather
round him and the master touches
him with a sword and dubs him sir"

BOILED EGGS BETRAY THEM
Nationality of Diners Is Shown in
Their Various Method of
Eating.

Sherlock Holmes might have figured
this out, but he did not!
The average Englishman will al
ways demand his egg boiled just
three minutes, then he places it in an
egg cup, just large enough to have
the egg fit it, taps the top Of the
shell, and removes the broken shell
with his fingers. The egg is eaten
spoonful at time.
A F'renchman, much like the Eng
lishman, likes his eggs Of three min
utes, exactly. He then ''peels" them,
places them in a glass, stirs and
mixes well together with salt, pepper
and butter. He makes practice Of
dipping bread into the mixture, and
eating it along with the eggs.
A Spaniard wouldn't think of letting
his egg boil more than one minute.
He Tnen breaks II, anu lets the Con
tents run into glass, and consumes
it as if he were drinking a glass OF
wine
An egg is only fit in an Italians
estimation when it has been placed
in cold water, and removed just as
the water beings to boil. He then
breaks it, pours it on plate, and
proceeds to sop it up with bread.
The German, like the Italian, de-
mands his eggs as near the liquid
state as possible. He breaks his eggs
in an unsightly cup, and scoops the
liquid out as if it were soup
The American is about the only one
who prefers his eggs boiled hard.
When they are served up to him, he
knifes them in half, removes the con-
tents into a glass, after which he
adds plentiful supply Of pepper, but
ter and salt. He then minces the
eggs fine, mixing them well with the
spices, and eats them with his toast.

uniuue Suicide.

A safe was used by a man nam
ed Jacob Rabinowitz, fifty-four years
old, Of Philadelphia, Penn, to COM
nit suicide, few days ago. FIRST he
lacked up an 800 pound safe with a
block of wood. Placing his head be-
meath it he drew strap as tightly as
he could around his neck. Then he
knocked the block from under the
safe and the heavy weight fell upon
his head. He was found by his wife,
but died before a physician arrived.
He had been respondent for several
weeks because he lost a lawsuit.

ERMANY'S excitement over the Krupp

fact that it touches her in her most SEN

to the fact that the Krupp establishment

GIRLS PURSUED AS THIEVES
BY AN ENRAGED COBBLER

Two girls sprinting along Park av-
enue today pursued by an enraged
shoemaker attracted the attention of
Mounted Patrolman Hoffman, who,
after oorraling the trio, brought them
to the Fifth Precinct station. The
shoemaker Marcellio Metoliano, of AL
North Fifth street, charged the girls
with stetling his pocketbook contain
ing $685.
ing $135. According to Metoliano. the
girls entered his shop and asked for a
pair of rubber heels. While his back
was turned. he says, the girls grasped
his poclSetbook and fed from the shop.
He gave chase and says one of the
girls flung the pocketbook back at
him when she saw the patrolman APP

ANOTHER APPEAL
FOR FLOOD SUFFERERS
Mayor Haussng and Board of Trade Officials Issue County
Wide Call for Money and Clothing for Homeless Ones in
the West-Fund SweIls to $f4,31o.21.

In response to the urgent appeals
for financial aid and clothing for the
relief of the sufferers in the flooded
districts of the middle West, Mayor
Haussling, President A. Y. Hamburg.
Of the Board of Trade, and James
M. Reilly held conference yester-
day.
The meeting was called to con-
slider the ACCESSIBILITY of appointing
special committees from the Board
of Trade to canvas the merchants
and professional men of the city for
subscriptions to the flood relief fund.
Instead of appointing committees
it was decided to send out second
appeal with the hope that those who
have not yet contributed to the fund
will answer the second call.
In going over the contribution list
it was pointed out that half the
amount already received was con-
tributed by a very small percentage
of the business men of Newark.
If the second appeal is not met
with a hearty response to swell the
fund President Hamburg says he
will appoint several committees to
canvass the business houses and
professional men who have not yet
contributed for the relief fund.
The second appeal, which was
framed at the special conference, is
as follows:
To the People of Newark;
1t is apparent from advices re-
ceived lately that the actual condl-
lions in the flooded districts Of Ohio
and Indiana are even worse than
first reports indicated.
Appeals for assistance have been
received from Dayton and Chilli
cothe, o.; Catlettsburg, Ky; Evans
vile, Ind, and other places indica-
ting the greatest scarcity of the ne
cessities of life, food, clothing, fuel
and medicine, and that funds here
tofore sent have been wholly made
quate to meet the needs of these
communities.
