Tax Amount 654 Times
Greater Than in 1918

Four judges served IN 1912 They
were p. Flemming, I. Meek, A. Mar
tin and +. kindan. They were among
the weIl-paid men of the day and re-
ceived 50 a day for their services on
the bench.
The sheriff seemed to have charge
CT many of the expenditures, as Coun-
ty Treasurer Turner is not credited
with many. Every week the sheriff
paid out fifteen or twenty dollars for
wolf scalps, at 81 a scalp.
The county clerk asked $50 for his
services for 1913, and the claim was
allowed.
Elections were cheap then, and for
the election in the First district IS
was allowed. The same amount was
allowed for the election in the Sec
ond district. The system of division
then is not known, but It is believed
that the county was divided into three
parts.
Recorded All Fines.
The commissioners kept a record
of hnes, among the first Of which was
swearing, 81. Judge Flemming pre-
sided in the case and was allowed a
days pay, 81 However, the county
was ahead a dollar on the next days
court as three men were fined 81 each
for rioting, the judge receiving his
fee of 81 for the day.
More money was taken in by the
county from licenses than by taxing
property. The fee to receive the per
mission of the commissioners to "vend
merchandise three months" was IS.
The first license was allowed to E.
SewelI & Co However, no license
was required to open tavern and sell
intoxicating liquor, according to the
records of 1917 in the same book
James Jones was given permission
to open a tavern in Centerville, and
John Patterson was allowed to start
rOadhOuse in Waterloo.
Examiner Finds Book.
The history of the old record itself
is interesting. 1t was nauled with
other records from Salisbury to Cen
terville. When it was brought to this
city it was sixty years old. One of
the county officials. however, took the
old records and had them indeXed
When he retired from office the first
record with several other old volumes
was tossed in a heap in the attic of
the court house. 1t was found by D.
IS. Coe, when he was auditor, and re-
stored to position of respect. 1t was
again unearthed recently by F. l.
Haimbaugh of Muncie, one of the eX'
aminers of the state board of &C
counts.

In what is believed to be the oldest
record of any kind in the court house
that of the county commissioners
beginning a century and year ago,
the total 1912 tax collected in the
county in the year 1873 is shown as
having amounted to $1,3432812, com
pared with about $500 600 in 1912
taxes collected this year
The tax list was simple, and the
man who made it out received IS for
his work, the records show. Among
the ten or eleven items on the tax
list are first, second and third-rate
land, horses, slaves and men of col
our. 1t is believed that by men of
colour" the commissioners meant
either freed slaves or negroes, or that
this item included the taxable proper
ty of Indians.
The tax rate is not shown, but the
total collections are given for each
taxable item. SecOnd-rate lands net
ted the county the largest income,
more than 700 being received from
that source There seemed to be lit
tie first and third-rate land taxed.
One of the items of expenditure is
the sheriff's record. The sheriff spent
more money for the county and prob

guards, who was employed at so cents

Among the sheriff's claims for the
followi! week is one expressive item
which reads, "Chryst's funeral ex-
penses: Winding of sheet 50; coffin,

There is no place in the record that
gives any hint as to what crime
Chryst committed, but he is believed
to have been the first murderer in
Wayne county to have been tried and
sentenced to death. He was held for
some time and a number or different
guards watched him, receiving fifty
cents day for their services. When
no special guard was employed, Jailer

Laughing and joking with his wife and
baby Roy Miller, an employe Of the
Light Inspection Car company, here
placed a revolver against his temple
and pulled the trigger, believing the
barrels of the gun empty.
Death was instantaneous
"Oh, don't do that, Roy" his wife
pleaded with him. 1T might accident

Before the words were out of her
mouth, the gun exploded and the bull
let passed through Miller's head, kill

he talked with his wife and baby for
short time when the three went up
stairs. Miller kept the revolver there
and taking it in his hand, toyed with
it for a few minutes.
Then he laughingly placed it against
his temple. His wife feared that an

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-Recent

members of the congress into action
They have decided not to await the
result OF the department OF justice in
vestigation into the cold storage bus
mess to see whether it has any con-
nection with the constantly mounting
prizes of eggs and other foodstuffs
Already several bills have been in
trOduced in the house which have for
their object the regulation of the cold

prepared.

Biesman went in as guard.
Hart was in poor condition TO play
owing to badly sprained wrist but

been much closer.

outplayed Neach in every way, and If
he had remained on the floor the team

Although suffering intense pain al
times Hart gave a plucky exhibition
OF gameness and stayed in the game
until it was apparent that the contest
was lost. Had Richmond been able 10
throw foul goals and her team been
in first class condition the rough work
of the Marion forwards would never
have started and the game would have
been a close one, as Marion does not
