CITY DEMANDS
COURT BAN. ON
TAX RATE CUT
Judge Kern Hears Pleas
That 2-Cent Slash Be
DiSregarded.
ASK PERMANENT ORDER
Heads of Departments Take
Stand as Case Is
Opened.

Arguments to make permanent a
temporary order restraining the
county auditor and. the county
treasurer from putting into effect
the $106 tax rate fixed by the state
tax board were being heard today
by Judge John Kern of superior
court one.
The city in its suit asks that the
levy as originally fixed at $108 be
collected, and that the state tax
boards slash of 2 cents be disre-
garded.
Philip zoercher, member of the
tax board, and Hugh Merrifeld,
deputy encouragement, appeared
for the state while Harvey Grabill,
county attorney, and Louis Eubank
was called in by Harry Dunn, coun-
ty auditor, and Clyde Robinson,
county treasurer, as special attor-
neys.
Law Not Followed
Prefacing the questioning of wit
nesses, Eubank declared that the
city had not followed faithfully the
provisions OF the law governing
budgets in that the advertisements
did not state that copies of the
budget were on file in the Office of
the city controller and the ordi-
nance itself did not set up the pre-
vious tax rates.
Heads of city departments took
the stand to show that the $1.08
cent rate, as fixed by the city
council, was not exorbitant, but
merely sufficient to take care of the
needs.
Allowance Held insufficient
Jerry Gates, superintendent of the
city garage, testified that the
amount allowed him in the 1880
budget, $4,000, had been INSULT
Gent and that the expenditures OF
the department last year totaled
S29.O41. The added funds were OBJ
tanned through transfers, he de-
clared.
A. H. Moore, city engineer; Will
bur Winsh1p, street commissioner;
Albert Loscne, purchasing agent,
and Jacket w. Joseph, president of
the board OF park commissioners al
testified as to the needs of their de-
partments.
Joseph explained the functions of
his department, and testified that
the park budget for this year is
$4,000 less than it was for last year.

Remarkable Jaw Power
of East Indian Lizard

The strength of jaw of warmblOod-
ed animals cannot compare with that
of reptiles, an article In Pearson's
Weekly points out The bulldog and
mastff are famous for their strength
of grip and the hyena Is said to be
able to bite through the thigh bone
of an OK to extract the marrow, but
they take back seats to the power and
tenacity of a lizard In the Calcutta
reptile house.
The lizard was of the sort known
as the "go-samp" and weighed
about 100 pounds. AS 1t was being
drawn out of the cage which 1t
shared with the pythons, 1t seized a
twelve foot snake by the neck.
Locked together, the two creatures
were drawn out. Keepers made every
effort to lever the jaws of the lizard
apart. But It was useless, and the
python's neck was fiat as a pancake
when at last the lizard let go.
A record illustration of the mus
cular power of the turtle was given
by the late Frank Bullen. He and
his mates captured an immense turtle
weighing 1900 pounds and cut 1t open.
They removed all the meat and left
only the head attached to the shell.
A young man began examining the
head and foolishly put his fingers into
the turtles mouth. They were bitten
off as Clearly as If they had been cut.

Historian Sees Symbol
in "Song of Nibelungs"

A strange theory, according to which
the famous "Song of the Nibelungs"
Is partly a symbolic description Of
metallurgical processes, has been
published by the German historian,
Carl Ludwig ANTI. While Herr ANTI
does not deny that some of the per-
sonalities and motives of the song
may have a historical background, his
thesis is that the poet Of the Nibe-
lungs used old fairy tales and myths
merely as a garment. The life Of Sleg-
fried, Herr ANTI contends, is full of
such indications. In his opinion, II is
highly remarkable that metals have
been mined in the territory around the
city of Worms, the seat of the Nibe-
lungs, for several thousand years.
Siegfried's fight against the dragon is
explained as a symbolic interpreta-
ton Of mining. Brunhilde, who lived
in Brittany (not In Iceland), is de-
scribed as the queen of tin, and Sleg-
fried conquers her for Gunther, the
king of copper. Gunther "copper"
marries Brunhilde (tin) and the re-
suit is bronze. Alberich, the dwarf, Is
a miner who reveals the secret of
mining to Slegfrled.

"Erasmus Aims Box"

Erasmus, noted scholar and reform
er Of the Sixteenth century. with his
friend Dean Colet. founder Of st.
Paurs school, visited st. Nicholas
,almshouse, in England, and one Of the
brethren ordered holy relic for them
ito kiss, as was the custom before
sprinkling guests with holy water,
writes Lovinia Walsh in the Boston
Transcript. The relic In this case was
a part of a shoe once worn by St.
Thomas of Canterbury. The dean, 1t
seems, was not kissing anybody's old
shoes. He forthwith got hot under his
clerical collar and became rhetorical
ly hectic.
The scholarly Erasmus, on the con-
trary, was most courteous, and to
make amends for the deans misbe-
havior, he dropped a goodly sum into
the aims box. Ever after, this box
was known as "The Erasmus Aims
Box"

Lapel Notches Traced
to French Directorate


ats funny" said the tailor, what
oddities OF dress have survived their
original use or purpose. There Is the
slit in the back of our coats, for ex
ample. That. ms you probably know,
became u feature of dress when men
wet horseback Il great deal, and
when 1t was necessary for the coat
tail to adjust Itself more or less to
the saddle
"But who knows why we have
notches in the lapels Of our coats?
Very few people outside my line of
work, l fancy, and probably not so
many tailors. The way Of 1t was this:
At the outset Of their careers there
was great rivalry between Gen. Ma
poleon Bonaparte. the young Italian
soldier who had risen rapidly under
the directorate, and General MOreau,
who was in high favor with many Of
the directors. Each general had his
partlsans and each sought for every
possible advantage over the other. Any
little distinction or difference was
seized upon.
"The followers of General Moreau
bloomed forth one day with odd-look-
ing coat lapels. These were notched
in way that had been previously
unknown. Later on 1t was revealed
that this lapel was secret badge Of
the Moreau partisans, but 1t was not
long until the star of the CorsIcan 30
far outshone General Moreau's that
there was no longer the least thought
Of rivalry. The notched lapel how
ever, caught the fancy of the tailors
and remained feature Of mems
dress."-New York Sun.

Stood on Monroe Doctrine

Senator Bingham, In his book on

that In the disputed territory were rich

Old Custom of Making
Offerings to the Moon

Moon viewing has been going out of
fashion like all other ancient customs
in this country, says an article In a
Tokyo paper, but great many fam
lilies, particularly those who have old
persons In them, still cherish men,
cries Of the old days when the custom
was one of the annual features of the
country by making offerings to the
moon. The offerings to the moon con-
sist of rice dumplings, kind Of po-
tato known as klnokatsugl and other
vegetables and fruits.
The custom originally came from
China, where It already was popular
in the Third or Fourth century and
countless poems had been written on
the glory Of the moon by Chinese
scholars and litterateurs. II Is believed
that the custom was first observed In
the imperial court of Japan In the
Ninth century. According to an an
clent record, 1t was already one Of the
annual features Of the imperial court
under reign Of the Emperor Buntoku
(851-S57).

Early National Marches

When Washington was first inaugu-
rated as President In New York in
1880, the orchestra leader, German
named Pheil, at the John Street the
alter, composed "The Presidents
March," In honor Of George Washing
ton, and played It when Washington
attended the theater. The march I'm
medately struck the public fancy. In
the summer of 1880 young man in
the theater company. for whom a ben
eft concert was to be given, asked
Joseph Hopkinson to write an orig
Inal song for the occasion. This song,
set to the tune of 1.-THE Presidents
March," was Hail Columbia" as we
know It today. It was called "The
Presidents March" In contradlstinc-
ton to the march of the Revolution
called "WashIngton's March"

Properly Southern States

The original Mason-Dixon line was
the boundary line between Pennsyl-
vanla and Maryland; just before the
Civil war the line was accepted as
the dividing line between free and
slave states. The states generally re-
garded as southern are Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Ala
bama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas,
Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Mis-
souri,, Kentucky, Maryland and Della
ware. The Mississippi river, which
forms the eastern boundary Of Mis-
souri,, does not change Its name. The
Missouri river divides the state, but
the whole of Missouri is considered
az a southern or border state.
