ASSESSOR JOBS
ARE ABOLISHED
BY ASSEMBLY
Work Will Be Handled by
Trustee in Townships
Under 5000.

Legislation abolishing the office of
assessor in townships of less than
5000 population, calculated to save
S220800 annually, was enacted Tues
day by the house, when it passed the
administration senate bill, IS to 10.
The bill puts the duties of the
township assessor in the hands of
the township trustee and is a COM
panion bill to the house measure
fixing the salaries of the latter.
There was some objection to the
lack of authority given township adj
visory boards. Representative Henry
c. Asche Dem, Sunman, argued
that since various laws enacted in
the 1882 session have reduced the
township trustees duties, he should
be given ditional work.
The railroad labor bill, prohibiting
trains from operating with more
than seventy cars, was killed in The
house, At to 45, after a bitter debate
The vote was followed immediately
by action to prevent reconsideration
except by a two-thirdS vote.
Labor members of the house
fought desperately for passage of
the bill, declaring it a safety meas
ure which would save many lives.

CIVIC THEATER
PRESENTS YOUNG WOODLEY"
Young Woodley" opened at the
Civic theater Playhouse last night
with a performance that was never
uninteresting, nor yet overly well
done.
Here Hale MacKeen has play
which is a better whole than any
Of the individual parts. 1t may be
the result of good direction. I think
it is. The play has point and the
point is put across, in spite of any
flaws shown in the acting.
To my mind Horace Hill, as Vim
ing, the young man-of- the world,
who has the latest information on
the problems of youth we'll in hand,
is the outstanding player in the cast.
He seems to have grasped the idea
of the part, to have given that part
not only the outer coloring but the
subtletieS which make it moving.
Jack Chesterfield, as Woodley,
is rather inconsistent in his por-
trayal of the misled and misunder-
stood youth, who falls in love with
his schoolmasters wife. Chester

Interpretation but in the critical
points of the play he becomes loose

Once Choctaws' Land

Choctaw Indians once inhabited
this land, and according to an old
folk tale, the chieftain's daughter
fell in love with the property owner,
and they later married
When the government sent the
Indians to new reservation, the
Indian princess left her husband
and went with her tribe.
The land was left to the white
man, who later married an Ameri-
can woman.
AS a vast sum Of foreign money
had come into his possession, he
was compelled to bury it in five diff
ferent locations until after the Civil
war.
Later. thieves stole a map Of the
money locations from him and dug
up three Of the caches. Forrest Lea
a farmer. still later unearthed a
fourth chest. which contained Span
ish gold coins, jewelry and gold
pocket knife.
Fortune Is Large
It is believed that the tree mark
ing the location of the fifth chest
was cut down; thus, until few
weeks ago, nothing more was known
of the missing treasure.
According to one legend, the
thieves who stole the map later
mysteriously returned it to the
Gains family without revealing
their identity.
The vast sum comprising the fifth
fortune, just discovered, has not
been estimated, but it is said to rep
resent many thousands of dollars,
besides probably heavy premiums
that will be paid on coins bearing
Old dates. There are 100 coins, all
very thin yellow gold, presumably
doubloonS.
Hundreds Are Prospecting
So great was the shock to the
Sylyesters at finding the fortune on
the creek bank near their home,
that the older man was confined to
his bed for several days, with an
attending physician.
Three bodyguards we're placed at
the shanty in the desolate thicket to
protect the family.
Hundreds of residents from For
rest, Greene and Perry counties
have visited the farm, and mineral
rods, picks, shoyels and implements
of every description have been in
constant use along the placid
stream.
