Count Don I de Castellans, "Mr. Anna Mould." fought a duel in Paris Saturday with Sl.de Kodays, editor of the Figaro, The count was displeased at some state ment expressed In the Figaro and took this means of exhibiting his disapproval. It was a most pleasant occasion and much enjoyed by all attending. The only unpleasant feature marring the Joyous svent was that the count un lortunately punctured his antagonist slightly with a bullet, but little harm was none. me duel was carried out with the utmost correctness and pre cision and, according to the reports, was a complete dramatic success. I lie split Infinitive is now a subject of grief to strict gramnariana, who claim to perceive an increasing frequency of tins literary misdemeanor.

Writers of high reputation as masters o( language have immortalised the split Infinitive. Its use, however, is disapproved by the high courts of grammar.

We publish in this issue a very able article on the need of a thorough revision of our county assessment system. There is no doubt that many are frightened away by the site our of lax rate, not realizing that it Is caused by the ridicu loimly low assessments ami that the amount of laxes is not exhorbilant. In the matter of taxing mining locations, however, the position taken by the writer is subject to argument. The $100 worth of assessment work to be done each year is popularly supposed to be in lieu of taxes aud Is a wise provision which promotes the development of prospects Into mines. An established valuable mine should certainly con tribute to the county expenses in the same ratio as other property. PACIFIC PINK NF.KDI.K CO, Moon lo llesuinx Operations.
