Nw Delinquent Tax Law.
According to a law enacted by
the state legislature, property is
subject to rale for taxes after
being delinquent for six months.
An extract from said law reads
as follows; "Any day after the
expiration of six months, after
the taxes charged against real
property are delinquent, the tax
collector shall have the right, and
it shall be his duty, upon demand
and payment of the taxes, pen
alty and interest, to make out
and issue a certificate or certifi
cates of delinquency against such
property." These certificates
may draw interest at the rate of
15 per cent per annum. It is ad
visable for all real property
owners to see that their taxes
are paid in full before they be
come six months delinquent as
they may be paid by and a certifi
cate issued to any person who may
wish to take them up. This
would have the same effect as a
lien or judgment against the
property.

School Notes.
By Lksi.ic Harlan,

afternoon in order to allow the
pupils a chance to hear the ad
dress by Judge Scott on the
Good Roads" question. The
address given by Prof. Sturgill
went to show the relat'on be
tween, Good Roads and Educa
tion. Why not have a piano in the
High School?
The boys are thinking of or
ganizing a male quartet
The Senior class have selected
Old Gold and Purple, for their
class colors. The other classes
should not be long in following
this example.
The Labratory is now nearly
ready for use. A delay was
neccessary to allow a carpenter
to improve the fixtures.
A movement is on foot to or
ganize a band with as many
Higt School members as pos
sible. Condon is certainly in
need of a band and everybody
should help to make this one a
success as it is of interest not
alone to the players but to the
town as well.
Fascination ef an Old BMhrttra.

Just pore over old Yolumea. I hare
seen men stand In this store and prac
tically read a book through In an aft
ernoon. They seem to forget their
surroundings for the time being, and
when they emerge from their aba trac
tion they are apt to obMrre that they
'hare Just been looking orer the booka'
and ask for some Tolume that they are
quite sure Is out of print Yea. air.

a way, but It Is an Interesting business

goods In the piece at a quarter a yard
and snap up the same goods In rem
nant lengths at 30 cents.
"So great Is the demand for rem

the legitimate supply."
The country storekeeper winked.

OUR EARLY STATESMEN.
Mawretrs IM' Views ana1 Madl
ears 'etkn Quaes,
loots of our early statMmea were
sjot expaoalonUta. Washington was
apposed to assuming Ihe ownership of
the Mississippi rlrer, and James Mon
roe when member of the Virginia
cob Tendon In 1TW argued agalust the
adoption of the federal constitution for
geographical reasons, "Consider," be
said, "the territory lying between the
Atlantic ocean and the AltaslsslppL
Its extent far exceeds that of the
German empire. It Is larger than any
territory that ever waa uuder any one
free government It la too extensive
to be governed but by a despotic mon
archy." And this from the man who
thirty years later waa elected president
of the United StatM extended far be
yond the Mississippi and who became
the author of the "Monroe doctrlue."
A year after the adoption of the con
atltutloa James Madison thought he
waa making a bold guess when he
estimated that the population of the
country might, "In some yearn." doa
ble In number and reach S.CWO.000. He
lived to see far beyond that Yet It
la true that for a number of years the
population waa largely confined to the
original thirteen colonies. In 1789.
when the constitution was adopted.
New York city had 83.000 Inhabitants,
la 1817 It had 115.000. Philadelphia
113.000, Baltimore W0OO, Boston 40,
000, Providence 10.000, Hartford 8.000,
Pittsburg 7.000. Cincinnati 7,000 and
St Louts 8.Q0O. Chicago was but a
tort, and Indianapolis wna an unbroken
wilderness. The country was Dot
crowded yet Exchange.
CONSOLATION.
The Mualalsn Reminded the Poet ef
the CaM ef Guarnerlue.
The musician with a companionate
smile watched the poet trimming the
fringe from hla cuff.
"After all" be said, "your verse may
live when Marie Corelli, Wlnaton
Churchill and Ball Calue himself are
forgotten. He me tuber the case of
Guarnertua."
'Who was her the poet asked.
'A pauper and a violin maker.
Gnarnerlus In the seventeenth ceutury
made violins that everybody thought
too thick; hence they brought only $2
apiece. Musicians would buy them
and have them pared down.
"Gnarnerlus Instated that they were
not too thick. When he heard of one
of bis Instruments being pared down
be flew Into a frightful rage, lie bad
a grouch agalnat the world because It
wouldn't agree with him about violin
making. He died a pauper because
the world would bsre noue of bis
violins.
"A Gnsrnerlus Is now snd then to be
picked up. Usually It Is a pared In
strument and Its value la not very
high. But Bod an unpared Guarnertua
snd you can get anything you like for
It It Is one of the world's few per
fect violins.
"But Gnarnerlus died a pauper. The
Hall Calnes snd Winston Churchill of
the violin world of his day refused
with sneer to drink with him. He,
too, trimmed hi cuffs." Los Angeles
Times.

Hay en Church Floor.
A curious custom is aunually observ
ed at Old Neaton church on St. Swlth
In's day. The church Is dedicated to
St 8wlthln. and on festival day the
church la strewn with hay. Many
years ago some donor left s Held to
provide money for bread which Is dis
tributed four times a year. The tenant
of the flcld baa to supply the bay to
itrew the church. The custom Is sup
posed to have orglnated from the fact
that on festival Hunclay the parlshlon
?r wear new boots, and the Ulva of the
donor waa to have the hay laid down
to stop the uucnklng Incidental to new
footwear. Loodou Standard.
