CLIFFSIDE. Jan. lin an
old Rutherfordton newspaper The
Mountain Banner of September
9, 1881, a Spartanburg, s. C.,
journalist, Colonel Farrow, gives
the following account of a steam
boat ride ne took in the Land
of the Sky:
Having received an invitation
from Col. S. V. Pickens, president
of the French Broad Steamboat
company, to take a ride on the
Mountain Lily" the new steam
boat Just launched on the waters
of the French Broad river, IN
company with c. c. Chase, the
popular landlord of Chase's Globe
hotel. we drove out to the land
ing. six miles from Henderson
willie, on last Friday morning
where we found quite a number
of ladies and gentlemen assem-
bled for an excursion on the boat.
Promptly at the appointed hour
the excurSioniStS were all aboard,
and we were all steaming away
down the French Broad on a real
steamboat, all parties enjoying
the novelty of the expedition
very much indeed. The Noun
tain Lily is a neat little side
wheel steamer. with an engine of

of the company, who. amid jeers
and sneers has pursued the even
tenor of his way, and has proved

full executions"
Deepening of the channels of
the French Broad, referred to in
the above article, was finally &C
complished. Congressman Vance
was instrumental in having bill
passed by congress which put
aside the sum of $4,000 to be
used for that purpose. The
Mountain Lily" was quite pop
ular as a novel mode of transport
tation in Western North Carolina
for a short period of time, but
the venture was not very prac-
teal. After big rains the river
channels filled with mud and fl
nally brought an end to the pic
turesque voyages of the mountain
craft. A smaller steamboat was
, later brought into use oil tho
French Broad but it was never
very successful.

Will Tighten Up
On Income Tax
Series OF SCHOOLS" For
Field Men Begun
The Timcs-N lIurenu
Sir Winter Hotel

RALEIGH, Jan. 1.-THE de-
partment of revenue is getting
ready to tighten up on the col
lection of the state income tax, it
was learned today from Commits
sioner of Revenue A. j. Maxwell.
For while the income tax is not
due until March Is, district meet
ings of the field deputy collec-
tors are already being held in
which detailed instructions in the
income tax law and how to col
lect it and check up on collec-
tions, are being given. This is
understood to be the first step
under the new plan of reorgaai-
cation for Tightening up on all
tax collections.
The first meeting of school
for field deputies was held here
last week when the field men in
Wake and % adjacent counties
met here in an all-day meeting
and in which Commissioner Max
we'll, Director Mcmillan of the
division Of assessments and col
lections and Alex Beddingfield,
head of the income tax division,
acted as instructors. 1t is plan
ned to hold a similar meeting for
deputy collectors in the eastern
part of the state in Greenville
the latter part of the week. Next
week one of these district
schools" for deputy collectors,
in which particular attention will
be given to the income tax law
and how to collect income taxes,
will be held in Charlotte. Later
on similar meetings will be held
in ASheville, Winston-Salem and
other centrally located cities, I'M
til all of the 60 field deputies
have attended one of these
schools.
From now until February l,
the field deputies are concentrat-
ing on the collection of the sales
tax and the inheritance taxes,
Mr.. Mr.. Maxwell said, and a COM
plete check of all the merchants
in the state will be made during
the present month. Under the
sales tax law, all of the $4,000
registered merchants in the state
are required to make a return of
their sales tax collections either
for December, for the quarter
ending December 81 or for their
entire collections since July l, if
they have not yet made any re-
turns, it was pointed out. All
these returns are due as of jan
uary Is. So those merchants
whose returns are not in within
the next few days will be check
ed up on at once.

Innocuiation by Influenza
HaIts Distemper In Animals.
The fatal "distemper" disease OF
dogs may provide new line Of at
tack on human influenza.
This is the implication of reports
received here Of the experiments of
two New Jersey veterinarians, work.
ing with ferrets as experimental ami
mails. Drs. Adolp Eichhorn and Nor
man j. Pyle injected into the ferrets'
throats washings from human infiu-
enza victims. They found that this
made the animals severely. but not
fatally, III. They ran q high tenn
perature, with weakness and loss of
appetite.
Ferrets are used In distemper ex-
periments. They are extremely senti-
tive to the dog malady and it always
kills them. Purely by accident the
two veterinarians used some of the
ferrets which previously had been in
noculated with human influenza and
recovered.
These animals proved highly re-
sistant to .distemper, so much so that
most of them showed no symptoms
OF 1t. There are various implication
of this accidental discovery, local
veterinarians point out. First, it
might be possible to protect dogs
against distemper by innoculating
them with influenza. Second, there
is bare possibility that it might
work in reyerse-with the distemper
virus, to which human beings are i'm
mune, serving as some sort of pro-
lection against influenza.

MIDDIES PHYSICALLY
"WELL ABOVE PAR"

Despite the depression, the physical
standing of prospective midshipmen
Is well above par.
This was made known yesterday by
Secretary Swanson, who declared that
Naval Academy authorities inform him
that while 14.43 per cent Of those
examined last year failed physically.
only l2.07 per cent were unable to
pass this year.
The present fourth class at the
Naval Academy will numb 5a5 and
will contain an unusual u of
classmen with fine phys .ueS said
the Secretary.
The usual high standard for physi-
cal fitness was maintained for both
years, said the cabinet officer, who
explained the report was made public
because of dissatisfaction expressed
over the number of candidates re-
jected due to physical defects.

How can anything sink which Is
10 per cent lighter than wster2
DR.. william J. Humphreys. Weather
Bureau meteorologist, has been as
sured all his hfe-by scores Of persons
who have seen 1t happen--that So
called rotten ice" sinks In the Spring.
A pond or stream viii be entirely free
Of ice In the morning although 1t had
been covered over with sheet several
inches thick the night before. This
happened without any increase Of
temperature.
Despite the assurances. Dr.. Hunph-
reys was confident that it couldn't
happen, and he finally has been able
70 solve the problem Of the disappear
ing ice. He presents his solution in
a communication to the official jour-
nal OF the American Association for
the Advancement Of Science.
First, says DR. Humphreys, the
chilled surface water with its density
increased sinks to the bottom with the
approach of Winter. Finally an ice
sheets forms which is 10 per cent
lighter than water and which nat
urally floats on the surface. The
forming of ice is a capitalization
process Many impurities are mixed
with the freezing water. but they are
crowded out in the making OF crystals.
Finally. however, they are frozen and
the ice thus formed serves as sort
Of cement TO bind the Crystals to-
gether.
Now the freezing temperature Of
this impure water is a trifie higher
than that of pure water-something
like a thousandth Of degree. Nat
uraliy the ice formed from 1t thaws
first with the approach of Spring.
This Is the explanation Of rotten ice
ice without any cement" to hold
it together.
Such ice naturally falls apart first.
The winds arise at night and break
1t UP. The water beneath is deprived
of the protection of the solid sheet.
The wind churns up the water. The
warmer strata underneath are whirled
upward so that they come in contact
with the broken-up ice. 1t IS melted
