IDEALS NOT FORGOTTEN

Adelheld Popp, one Of the leading
women Socialists of Austria, writes to
the British Socialist press as follows.
! am glad 10 have the opportunity 10
speak to the comrades of Britain and
TO tell them that the Socialist women
OF Austria have not for a moment for
got their ideals and that they DO not
cease TO regret that they have not had
the chance TO welcome in Vienna the
representatives of the Socialist work
ing class Of all countries. We are
deeply longing for the end of this war.
We have no greater wish than to be
able TO cooperate again in fastening
strongly and indestructibly the tie
which binds all peoples"

Rome's Colossal Fish Pond.

The Duke of Sermoneta, who is
acting as president Of the committee
formed in Rome to promote the in
dependence of Poland, ranks among
the greatest landowners in Italy,
Fogliano, his estate near the Pontine
marshes, extending to $4,000 acres,
mainly under grass, for the duke
owns vast herds of cattle. The most
productive portion OF the estate, how
ever is a lake several miles long and
about a mile in breadth, which, from
the time of the Roman empire down.
ward, has supplied fish for the mar
ket in Rome. Whenever there is a
flood caused by rain on the hills, the
lake overflows through narrow
chained into the sea. The sea fish
find their way through into the lake,
remain to fatten in the fresh water
and then are captured on their re-
turn by an ingenious labyrinth con-
structed of reeds into which they
swim. They are of the best kind
chiefly gray mullet.

Not a Bell Rope.

A young man, while travelling on
the east coast of Scotland entered a
small inn to get some refreshments.
The barroom was empty; no one
seemed to be about. So, going over
to what he took to be the bell rope,
hanging from. the ceiling, he tagged
it violently, just to show that ne was
being neglected. The next moment
the landlady came screaming down
the stair in a towering rage.

Summer time in Dear Old Carolina.

All the land is filled with bliss.
Everything the earth doth kiss,
There is no time In the year that's s
any finer:
One can do his very best,
Live in comfort, live in rest,
When>it's summertime in dear old
Carolina.
All the birds do sing with gladness.
Nothing then is filed with sadness.
For Jehovah in His glory doth en-
shrine her;
Everything is good and fine,
Jolly, merry, all the time.
When, it's summertime in dear old

And the maiden does not shrek
When she's kissed upon the cheek,
And her sweetheart puts his loving
arms around her;
But they both. do bill and coo,
Just as lovers want to do,
When it's summertime in dear old
Carolina.
Now if you do not believe,
And you think that | deceive,
And that all of this is fake and
nothing finer;

If you'll come and stay while

TAX COMMISSION LOSES.
CONTENTION IN MATTER OF
BANKS UPHELD.
States Counsel Expects Ultimate Vic
tory.-Validity Of Act Not
Passed On.

Columbia. July 27.-That the
State tax commission cannot assess
banks and cannot review the assess
ments filed by the banks with the
county boards on or before Febru-
ary 20, and that the commission can
not assess the franchise and property
of the bank, is the opinion of Asso-
ciate Justice R. C. Watts.
These findings were made by JUS
tice Watts in granting the mandamus
of the National Loan and Exchange
Bank, of Greenwood, requiring the
tax commission to return to the au-
ditor of Greenwood county their as
sessments as filed with him on Feb
ruary 20, and in enjoining the tax
commission from assessing or re-
viewing the returns of the Peoples
National Bank, of Greenville.
The constitutionality Of the act
creating the State tax commission
and the validity of the act are not
passed on in the decree.
Must Leave Returns Alone.
The tax commission is enjoined
from in any way interfering with the
returns of the banks or in assessing
them.
Justice Watts overruled the objec-
ton of Assistant Attorney General
Dominick, and said the court had ju-
risdiction of the case. He found that
injunctions would be applied for and
granted where the court saw proper,
and held that the legislature could
not forbid the granting of injunc-
tions against the tax commission.
For the banks to pay the tax under
protest and then sue for recovery
was held not to be an adequate RENE
dy.
Assistant Attorney General Domi-
nick would not comment on the de-
cision further than to say that he had
already given notice of appeal to the
supreme court. and that he felt con-
fdent of finally winning the case.

THE WAR AND THE NEWSPAPER
HEADLINES

AS the first anniversary of the be-
ginnig of the great war aproaches-it
began July 20, 114-it may be timely
to reflect upon the great change Shat
has come over the appearance of the
newspapers of the country.
If you will take up last years vol
ume of any newspaper you will be
struck by the absence of the bold head
lines which mark the editions as they
come from the press today. There is
an absence of the sensational. The
affairs of the world seemed to be NOV
ing smoothly over their we'll oiled way
Politics and local disasters seemed to
be the only news worth spreading"
Then suddenly the whole wcrld struc
ture shuddered. The assassin's shot
mad killed the Austrian archduke and
it had touched off the spark that set
the world aaamc. The immediate re-
suit, as far as the dress" of the news
papers was concerned, was The appear
ancc of issues which shrieked the mo
mentous news to the world II SEN
sationalism was ever justified it was
justified by the outbreak of the great
history of the world had ever hap
pcned, it is safe to say, viii ever hap
pen again. Most people did not grasp
the enornity of the sit lation: most of
them do not even grasp it today. II
is too much for the brain of an indi-
vidual The cataclysm that over
whelmed Europe meant the destruc-
tion of hundreds of thousands OF lives,
the wounding and manning of mil
lions. the disruption of the order of
affairs as they had existed for many
decades and in a great many cases,
as they had existed for centuries
Business came to a standstill, and
when il did not actually cease it was
\ secondary consideration. The people
pie of Europe, the cradle of modern
civilization, gave themselves up to
war. Is it any wonder, then, that the
newspapers proclaimed in loud tones
the change that had come over the
whole world?
And what will be the result when the
much to be desired peace has been de-
clared? VIII newspaper readers be
satisfied to view their papers without
''screamers VIII they be satisfied
with the small headline and with the
unsensational, telling of the news of
the day or week Here is an interest
ing problem which the newspaper psy-
biologists can busy themselves when
the war is over.
One thing however, is certain and
sure. American newspaper readers

ever before They will want to watch

LAID AT REST
FUNERAL OF DR.. HOLLINS.
Remains Buried Beside Wife's Grave
On the Farm.

1t was an unusual funeral service
that celebrated solemnly the last sad
rites over the remains of DR.. John
George Hollins, the recluse, who lived
alone and died alone on the farm at
Hollin's Point on the Severn.
The services were held yesterday
afternoon and were conducted by the
Rev. DR.. Alexander Bielaski, pastor
of Maryland Ave. Methodist Episco-
pal Church.
The pallbearers were Messrs. Charles
f. Martin. John Frank, John o. Mil
Ter. Joseph o. Fowler, Carey Fowler
and Col. Barnett.
The burial was in the family burying
ground on the farm, beside the grave
of his wife who died nine years ago.
The funeral arrangements were in
charge of Undertakers James S. Tay-
lor Il Sons.
The death of DIR. Hollins was sur
rounded with peculiarly pathetic cir
cumstanees. He lived alone, from
choice, and only permitted his chill
dren. two sons and a daughter to visit
him once a week. This was usually
on Sunday. Last Sunday when his
son John went to visit his father, he
found the dead body of his parent,
horribly decomposed. showing he must
have died some days previous.
DR.. H1llins was 94 years. He had
of late years been subject to apoplexy,
and it is supposed he was about to
go above stairs when he suffered
stroke and died at the foot of the
stairs, or ladder leading to the second
floor. He was in, the habit of doing
his own laundry on Tuesday, and arti-
cles for the wash were in the tub.
The conclusion was he died on Mon
day. had he died on Tuesday, or We'd
nesday, the weeks laundry would have
been completed.
An inquest was held, Justice Min
nick. acting coroner. After hearing
the evidence in the case, the coroner's
verdict was the deceased came to his
death from hardening of the arteries
of the heart.
