America is universally looked upon
as the richest nation ON earth and an
interesting commentary on how the
wealth Of the individual American In
creased, especially during the war, is
shown In the income tax returns dur
ing the same period given in the table
above. In 1918 a total Of 357.59S re-
turns were filed; in 1914 there were
'357,515:s in 1915 there were 336,652
and in 1916 43T,036. Then came the
sudden wave of prosperity during the
war and In 1917 the number of returns
jumped to 3,472, $780, From then on
there was steady increase in the
number of individuals who filed income
tax returns. In 1918 there were 4,425,-
Ia; 1919 saw $685., 760 filing returns,
and in 1920 the number reached the
peak with 7,259,944. Then a revision
of the income tax law caused the num-
Der to drop to 6,662.176. 1t rose to
6,7S7, 4S1 in 1922 and then jumped to
7,69S,321 in 1923. In 1924 total of
7,S69,7SS persons filed income tax re-
turns. In 1925 there was again a
sharp drop in the number of income
tax returns to 4.171.O51.
On February 20. 1926. President
Coolidge signed the Revenue Act Of
1926, a new law for the year 1b25 and
thereafter which fixed the NORMAL tax
rate for individuals at 1h.l3 and
5 per cent for net incomes from
$4,000 up to 100000. 1t also decreased
the surtax rates and increaked the
personal exemption Of a singld person
to $3.50 and of married pdrson or
head of family to $500. It also
raised to $4,000 the amount Of income
which may be considered aS earned
and taxed at lower rates. The first
five thousand dollars of net Income In
all cases is deemed to be carried.
Some interesting facts on thk income
tax situation, especially In regard to
the increase in amount of such tax

SYNOPSIS: Parson Marling pays an unexpected visit to Woodcot. Tom is in danger of immediate arrest, Marling tells him, as an accessory in the escape of convict. The parson also furtively mentions the ab- bey history, stolen from the Fotherburg library on the day of Pell's death, and voices yelled suggestions that Tom should flee Woodcot. Marling departs, ap- parently without revealing the reason for his visit, but Tom is relieved when he learns that his mother has burned Cousin Johns clothing, marked with the tell tale, prison insignia. Somerfield, however, is alarmed by Toms account of Markings visit and urges him to destroy the evidence in the safe. Tom assents and to- gether they remove the dilapi- dated black bag, weighted with it's valuable contents and omi- nous secrets.

HARVARD SCIENTIST u TO LIVE ONE YEAR
 WITH TINNEH TRIBE

Enroute to the remote Shushana district to spend one year living among the Tinneh Indians, Prof. Robert McKennon, ethnologist of Harvard University, visited here last night while the steamer Yukon was in port. He was guest of Rev. A. P. Kashevaroff at the Alaska Museum while in this city.
 Prof McKennon has been seek ing information relative to the Tinneh, or Athabascan Indians. Last spring he wrote Gov Parks on the subject and all the locally available data was furnished him by Rev. Kashevaroff It is to add to this and. information from other sources that he is making the trip to the north.
 It is his desire to study the ab- original Indian tribe that has least felt the influence of civilization. He has selected the Tinnehs as such a tribe. He will make his head quarters at Shushanna and live among the Indians of that region for the next year, observing their customs, studying their traditions and language and making other in- vestigations.

 I turned to speak to the man ir the doorway.
 "Yes,' I said. Did you want tc see me?"

fore Cousin John gave them the slip in Devonshire?-Bu look here. Grenofen, we can't leave this stuff lying about" But it was easier to say rid of it than to do so. We hurredly discussed many projects only to drop them. Of a sudden, Somerfield seemed to be electrified. He leaped back from the window, cried, Look out" and dived into the corner of the room where I had an old full plate camera in yellow case.
 Watch 'em and tell me if they come in," said Somerfield, tearing at the buckles of the camera-case
 My view commanded the lane from point near our gate to the place where it disappeared under the trees. What had excited Som- erfield was the two men walking up the road. I had them in sight for two or three seconds.
 One was young Fotherbury. The other I did not know. I kept an eye on the gate, while Somerfield in breathless haste got the camera out of the case, dropped it on the floor and piled the stuff into it.
 What will you do with it?" asked. ~ l Never mind. Watchl The fellow I with the club is one of Laxton's men,"
 AS he spoke. Fotherbury's head ] appeared above the shrubs that lined the little drive, and the next
 instant he had stopped by the gate, pointing. His companion pushed the gate back. ''a
 He's coming in," I said to Som- enfield.

 Somerfield looked over my shoul- der. We saw at first nothing but what happened to be a mass of dingy rags. But on one part of them there was a mark which turned me cold with apprehension Soinerfield did not realize the sig nificance of the broad arrow.
 What's that mean?" he asked
 "The evidence that Laxton want ed-the broad arrow that marks a convict's dress.
 I pulled at the tough gray mate rial, but it would not come Impa- tient, Somerfield laid hold of the bag itself, turned it upside down and lifted it away, leaving on the bed a crude parcel made up in g prison coat. He gave it roll anc it came apart.
 Then we both staggered back the two most astonished young mer | in England that day. Wrapped in the prison coat was what seem. ed to us to be priceless and un. heard of things, gold trinkets witt masses of jewels, rings, bracelets brooches, and above all a golder goblet set so thickly with diamonds and rubies that it's bowl was we'll nigh hidden.
 We stared at the display a full minute. Somerfield spoke first.

I found some papers, put them around the Ibag and soon had it in the middle of an incandescent mass. The disposal of Aladdin's trea- sure, however, was going to be much more difficult.
 When I got back to the bedroom Somerfield met me with a little cry of excitement.
 "Christopher-look here! These were under the ornaments"
 He pointed to number of steel tools-a fine saw, jimmy, a pick lock, a hook, a silk rope. He held in his hand book in quarto bound in white-yellow vellum.
