The state treasurer bus notified ! County Treasurer Cady that the university tax for 1892 must be re mitted at once or the claim will be placed in the hands of the attorney general for collection, as it soon will be outlawed. From the annual re port ft appears that Baker and Washington were the only counties that have not paid the tax. The siate levy for 1897 has been fully paid by this county, but the state still has over $7,000 charged against the countv, inclusive of the univer sity tax, which is $443.08. The treasurer's report shows the balance of the charge is due to 1895 tax. but this is an error. There was $6700 sent to the state in the spring of 1896, which should have been applied to the 1895 tax, but no des ignation having been made as to application of the remittance, the mate, treasurer applied it to old back 'axes, when the mortgage tax law was in operation. Prior to thin it was hoped by county officials that the old tax would be remitted bv the state. An important case being tried this week is that of Kate Brugger vs James and John Borwick. In 1894, Kate Brugger, being possssfd I of a neArly four-ninths interest in I An estate, quit claimed And deeded awAy her share, viz: in 80 acres, to James Borwick; 45 acres to Em ma Brugger, her sister, the land af terwards being conveyed to John Borwick. The complaint alleges that Kate Brugger never received anything for her property, the pro ceeds having been absorbed by oth ers, And that when she signed the instruments she was of unsound mind. A mortgage of $1,000 has already been foreclosed on the 45 acres. J. B. Wertz, a carpenter, fell from the roof of a house of Survey or Morrill, on which he was work ing Tuesday, and struck the ground twenty-five feet below, producing a serious concussion of the brain from the effects of which he was uncon scious ten hours. One finger was dislocated and the left wrist sprain ed and one of the metacarpal bones broken. Notu withstanding his ser ious injuries the attending physic ian, Dr. F. A. Bailey, thinks he may recover. Now is the chance for A nous rea ders to get 10 series of 10 photo graphs each 160 photographs in all of the American navy, Hawaii and Cuba.

Sensational Scene in the Court room. DeLashmutt Threatens R. S. Browne. These sultry and almost blister ing warm days bring up the water ing trough question with a veng eance. It is a shame that Hillsboro does not do something for the com fort of farm trams which come to town in the course of trade. Why not have a watering trough at city expense? And one that a farmer can water his borfes without un hitching? A recent letter from J. J. Morgan to a relative in this city says that he is still working away on a claim on the shares contract.
