States Gas Tax
On The Upgrade

For the calendar year 1888,
North Carolina received s14,773,-
2S2 in state gasoline taxes. The
total gasoline taxes yielded more
than $519,o0o,ooo as compared
with $514,138,9OO in 1882, accord
ing to ar announcement of the bu-
reau of public roads, United State,
department of agriculture. Thi.
does not include tax returns from
the federal gasoline tax.
Although slightly less in 1888
than in the previous year, con-
sumption of gasoline exceeded IA
billion gallons, the weighted aver
age tax rate was 3.65 cents pei
gallon. There was a noticeable in.
crease in the diversion of, funds tc
other than highway purposes and
also an increase in funds allocated
to local roads.
Total revenue was allocated a.
follows: To state highways $277,-
|519,371; to local roads $111,109,-
1873. to state and county roads,
bond payments, $58,972,767; tc
city streets $1,334,180; to costs OF
collection and administration ST.
|727,So1; and to other highway
purposes $55,742,1 73.
In North Carolina taxes were
COLLECTED on 246,1eo,o3e gallon.
and the percentage of increase in
consumption from 1882 was more
than 6.23 per cent.

"The volume of store building

is decidedly encouraging" the
Manufacturers Record says, "since
it indicates that conditions in the
south have improved and is recog-
nized by investors. Store construc-
ton has always been a good barom-
eter of business conditions. Chain
institutions are investing heavily
in new locations, building entire

stores, and undermining facilities
through the installation of the most
.up-to-date types of equipment"

Rome-A new home of surpas-
sing magnificance has been COM
.pleted in Vatican City for Pope
Plus XII, who must move out of
the ancient papal apartments in the
Vatican this summer, to make
way for renevators, it has been
learned.
The new apartments occupy the
entire second floor of the palace
of the governors of Vatican City
and the rooms are decorated in lux
ury and splendor.
Reconstruction of the apart
ments in the Vatican will take
several months, perhaps longer, and
during that time the Pope viii. live
in the governors palace, which is
behind ST.. PEERS and near the
gardens in which the pont;ff has
spent ar hour each day since he
became head of the church II
years ago.
The new apartment has floors
|of colored marble upon which are
strewn priceless rugs from China
and Persia. The ceilings are OF
gold leaf and ON the t~apestried
walls hang paintings by the old
masters. The furniture, woodwork
and even the doors are of choicest
rosewood.
Opening into each other are the
.Pope's great bedroom, his desssing
room, his study, a magnificent
throne room with its h~igh-backed
crimson throne, rooms for two Sec
etaries and a dining room.
Beyond is a suite for notable
guests. The bathrooms are luxur-
ious and contain marble bathtubs
eight feet long. While displaying
the guest suite the palace custodian
remarked:
eft is here the Pope will place
visiting Kings or Presidents.
