COLLECTIONS LOWER


Grand Forks, NJ D., May 10.--Accord-
ing to reports completed at the office
of Co. Treas. John Bridston, the annual
collection of taxes during the month
of February totaled $624,346.36, or near
ly $4,000 less than the income during
the same month the year previous.
The poor crop of 1915 Is believed to
the payment of taxes. Due to the anal
rush of taxpayers to settle with the
county before the penalty for delay Is
afixed on March 1, the issue of receipts
and the compiling of amounts has just
been completed.

Battle to Last Man.

After Count Tisza had spoken, Count
Aoponyi, the opposition leader, pointed
out that the entente reply to the CEN
trail powers peace offer made demands
which would result in the dismember-
ment Of Hungary
so long as there is one Hungarian
living he declared, there can be no
question of such a peace. The war
must, therefore. be prosecuted with the
utmost energy until our enemies have
abandoned their mad program"
He concluded by expressing ac-
Guiescence in Count Tisza'S statement
on submarine warfare and the hope
that il would accelerate peace.
Count Andrassy. the former premier
followed with similar statement He
said:
1t is just because human feeling re-
volts against a proiongation of the
war. and because We are longing for
peace. that We are prosecuting the war
with The most extreme energy. The
United States has done nothing to re-
strict Great Britain's encroachments on
and violations of international law
Therefore, Germany in resuming free
dom of action. as she warned the Unit
ed states she would do. is fully justi-
lied. We hope the brave sailors of
Germany and the monarchy will en-
force u victorious peace"

PROGRAM OFTEN CHANGED.
Shortening of Poughkeepsie Race
One of Many Alterations.

NEW YORK, February Tho de-
cision of the Intercollegiate Rowing
Association to reduce the varsity cham
pionship race from four to three miles
calls attention to the fact that this
is but one of several changes made
from time time in the Poughleepsie
program. The history of the regatta
dates back to 1895. when the first four
mile race was staged upon the Hudson
\ year later the two-miie race for
freshman crews was added. and in 1898
Columbia, Pennsylvania and Cornell in
corporated the association.
The same season the regatta was
transferred from Poughkeepsie to Sara
toga lake and the length of the varsity
race cut to three miles. Eighteen hun
dred ninety-nine saw the crews back
on the Hudson again, where the four
mile event was restored and a two
mile race for varsity tours added to
the program. In 1901 a one-mile sin
gle-scull race was featured and was
won by c. E. Goodwin of Syracuse Uni
versity in 9.32 SIS, but tho event was
not revived in following seasons. Be-
ginning with the 1914 regatta a two
mile race for junior Fights was sub
stituted for the varsity four event, to
be followed three years later by the
change in the main contest Of the re-
gatta.
