(From Wednesdays Advertiser.)
There were means and groans and
doleful faces in the
municipal building yesterday when the
pay checks were handed out by tho
auditor to employees and officials of the
city. The joyous spirit which usually
prevails on the occasion of municipal
ghost-walking was absent, like sugar

1t was bad day Cor the government
workers, but 1t was a glorious day for
the tax collector! He stepped in and
gObbled $l663.70 for arrear taxes from
24I employees. And this sum represents
only about One-ffth of the entire claim
he has filed with the auditor.

complained one L.nploye, who had the
misfortune to be garnisheed by others
rs well as by the tax collector.
But while it was the day Of the tax
collector, he did not get by without
some serious and humorous criticisms
from several against whom he claimed
lax money.
Mayor Lane, for one, had the laugh
on him, because the mayor happened to
have receipt which showed he hal
paid his taxes in full. The tax Office
had made a mistake and the mayor took
it good naturally.
Was | surprised to see my name on
the delinquent listf Well, rather!
said the mayor "You see ] went to
the tax office some time ago and told
them | wanted to pay all my taxes, and
| gave them the money demanded, took
receipt in full and thought, of course
that ended it.
"When the list came up to the audi,
tor ! saw my name on 1t charged with
$l4.2O back taxes. This, it was stated
was balance for 1911. AS / happen
to have "a receipt showing all my take,
paid, IN not particularly bothered
about the claim"
The mayor paused and after a min
ute 5 reflection added that he was go
ing up to the tax Office to make sure
there are no more claims for antique
taxes against him.
But there were many Others WHIT

really owed the taxes. In these case!
The auditor deducted twenty-five PEI
