Into June.

Three more days remain in which taxes

ment this afternoon by Ben L. Prince,

Law Requires May Payments.
From inquiries made at this office, -
said MIR. Prince, Il fear that many may
have the idea that Saturday being a
legal holiday and the Sunday following
being the 31st day of May, it will be ac-
ceptabie to tender payment of taxes on
the Monday following.
Il have today received a ruling from
the corporation counsel, citing the law
and showing very plainly that all taxes
not paid in May will be subject to the
penalty provided Payments Of taxes at
the window. therefore, must be made not
later tnan Friday. the 10Th, and payments
by mail must be 'postmarked not later
than Sunday, the 31st Payments by
mail. where the letters are postmarked
June l. cannot be accepted unless the
penalty of l per centum is added.
At Risk of Owner,
In all payments by mail In the form
of checks or otherwise. the collector of
taxes acts as the agent of the property
owner and not as the agent of the Dis
trict. Payments in this way are made at
the risk of the owner. The law contem-
plates payments in cash"
The total amount of taxes due is 50, 4O6,
9J4o3 Realty taxes amount to $J,116.-
