RED CROSS IS
 STILL BELOW
 JUNEAU QUOTA
Roll Call to Be Continued Until Necessary Sum
 Collected

To and including today, the tenth
 day of the drive, s522 has been col-
 lected in the Red Cross Drive in the
 City of Juneau, declared A. B. Phil lips, Roll Call Chairman. This sum, slightly over half the 1895 quota, is considerably less than half of last years collection.
 As yet, no reports have been re- ceived from outlying districts. Commenting upon the apparent failure to raise sufficient funds, MT.
 Phillips said today: We are con- fident we shall raise the quota $1 ,OO0, before we are through. Juneau has never yet failed the Red Cross, and certainly her contributions have always reaped rich return in civic development. Our one anxiety is that we complete our collections during the time allotted us in the national driye-that is, before Thanksgiving, :" Should the quota not be reached by that time, however, MT. Phillips expressed the will of the entire com
 mittee to continue the drive until
 the quota is achieved.
 This money is not going to an- swer national emergencies" mem bers of the committee reiterated to-
 day. Everything contributed by each individual above the initial 50 cents remains in Juneau Our quota
 is intended to fit our Juneau needs; and the knowledge that such a need exists should stimulate all employed persons in contributing what they can toward its fulfillment."
 Persons missed by Red Cross so-I
 licitors are asked to send in their donations to one of the following:

NAPOLEON'SB BED
 MUCH TOO SHORT

Paris, Jan 30--(UP)-Nappleon Bonaparte's insistence that his toes
 should reach the bottom of his bed has deprived Premier Pierre Eti-
 enne F'landin of the honor of in- heriting it for his new home in the
 Hotel Matigon, it was learned to- day.
 Napoleon was only feet 2.
 Flandin is t6 feet 4. Nobody thought of that when
 some of Napoleon's furniture. un-
 used for a century, was brought from the emperor's chateau at Compiegne. It developed that Napoleon had the bed made to his order so he
 would be able to wriggle his toes and touch the foot.
 The premier's residence, which
 he will occupy next week, is the first French premier has had un- der the republic. Others have lived privately and have had their offices in ministries of their colleagues
 unless they took cabinet posts themselves.

 ly|in Govt BulIetin

Important instructions on the proper method of filing 1884 in- come tax returns were received to- day at zthe office of Deputy Collec- tor Charles w. Byrne on Grand street. The government bulletin reads as follows:
 The period for the filing of in- eome-tax returns covering the cal- endar year 1894 begins. January 1 and ends at midnight of March IS. WIthirs this period are filled an- nually millions of individual in- come-tax returns, a large propor- ton Of which report income suh- ject to the tax. The latter contain a considerable percentage of er- TOTS. which if uncorrected by the audit would result to the disadvan- tage ofsthe taxpayer. Many are er- TOTS oKf fcomputation easily discov- cred on the face of the return, which usually is accompanied by a payment, of more than the amount of tax due. In other re- turns it is req dily discernible that the taxpayer has failed to take ad- vantage of the personal exemption, credit allowed for dependents, or deductions from gross income to which he is entitled.
 To avoid these and other errors, the Bureau of Internal Revenue urges careful reading of the in- structiOns on the forms for filling the returns. Additional informa- ton, If needed, may be obtained at the office of collector of internal revenue. deputy collector, or an internal revenue agent in charge. Also, as further aid in the prepa- ration of correct income-tax re- turn for the year 1884, the bureau has prepared a series of short newspaper articles. of which this is the frst, advising the salaried man, wage earner, professional and bus mess man-in fact, every class of individual taxpayer--of his require ments and privileges as interpreted under the latest regulations, rul- ingss and decisions relating to the 1ncome-tax law.
