MILLIONS IN GEMS UNTAXED. Federal and State Icyics Sought OH
 3,OOO,OOO in Connecticut.

Hartford, Oct. 29.--In the face of Federal Internal Revenue figures showing that jewelry valued at over $4,000,0o0 was sold in Connecticut last year, it is disclosed at tho state tax department that watches and jew elry to tho value of only s9S3,053 were listed for local taxation. The state law requires that jewelry be taxed at it's fair market value.
 The figures indicating the whole sale evasions of the state tax came out in connection with tho statewide campaign of the Internal Revenue of flee for the collection of delinquent taxes on the sale of jewelry.
 Within the past week alone rev. enue agents have discovered jew elry sales to the extent of q half mil lion dollars upon which the federal tax had not been pand. One leaders books showed sales of s50,000 which had not been reported for taxation.
 A careful check is being made on sales by jewellers and persons nnd firms engaged in business in which the sale of jewelry is only a part.
 The same situation is true with re- gard to household furniture, libraries and musical instruments.

 And that is?"

 Doesn't it mean-telling the truth?"
 So you know the truth, Danicl?'
 Yes, don't you? Don't every man--in his heart? And if we want to keep 1t in our hearts and never think about it or look it in the face, shouldn't some one open the door and cry, Behold? didn't tell them any thing they didn't know. Doctor. don't know anything they don't know. I just remind them

 Precisely he interposed. That brings us to tomorrow's sermon. I understand you intend to talk about the strike Daniel nodded. Now that's not very pleasant subject for Christmas. Wouldn't it be more fit ting to preach from the text, Glory to God, in the Highest.''

 No" Clare answered with an mir Of fatigue. I'm on my way now. Mir. IIinkle cut his finger. I've been applying first aid."

 "I mean anything special to do.'

 The quiet smile came back.

Garbaldi but was too late, so he
brought him over one night anyhow
and took him into The World booth.
1t happened that a swell rooster that
had just won yards of blue ribbons
was visiting the booth at the time,
and he pulled some very upstage
stuff on Garbaldi. He gave Garbaldi
the icy stare, in fact.

LINCOLN'S SON SAW
THREE PRESIDENTS SHOT

Here is the amazing experience of
Robert T. Lincoln, son of President
Lincoln. and now in his S0th year.
He related ii recently to a friend and,
so far as know, it has never before
been published: Young Lincoln was
in the army and stationed in Vir-
ginia when he received an order to
report at Washington. He got into
the theatre just in time to see his
father receive his fatal wound.
Young Lincoln was Secretary of
War under Garfield. He was asked
by the President to meet him at the
station and he reached there just as
Garfield was assassinated.
Lincoln received an invitation to
attend the formal opening of the
Pan-American Exposition at Buffalo,
and accompanied by his family, got
there Just in time to see President
Mckinley shot by Czolgosz.
A friend happened to be with Mr..
Lincoln when he received an invita-
ton to attend a presidential func-
ton at Washington a few years ago.
He then remarked something to the
effect that. "If they only knew, they
wouldn't wan me there" And he
recited his experience as here re-
vealed-B. C. Forbes, in Forbes

formation concerning the date of
their arrival and the location OF
their offices may be obtained by
writing the collector of internal
revenue at Cheyenne.
Forms for filing returns of indi-
vidual net income for the year 1922
are being sen to taxpayers who filed
returns for the year 1921. Failure
to receive a form, however, does not
relieve the taxpayer of his obligation
to file a return and pay the tax on
time, on or before March Is. The
forms, 1040A for filing returns of
net incomes $4,000 and lessl and
1040 for filing returns of net in
comes in excess of $4,000. may be
obtained from collectors Of internal
and deputy collectors.
Returns are required of every
single person whose net income for
1922 was $1,000 or more or whose
gross income was $4,000 or more
and of every married person whose
net income was $4,000 or more or
whose gross income was $4,000 or
more. Careful study of the instruc-
tons on the forms will greatly aid
in making a correct return.
