Jnistol, James Colo and K. T. Prall.
After going over tho bills section
by section all morning, the committee

inoporutivo and that the other two

CHARITIES TAX TO
SUPPORT HOSPITALS
MHLHOUHNK, Australia, Feb. 2-1.
Tho government of the state of
Victoria proposes to introduce n
charities tax to which all wage earn
ers will liuvo to contribute, it was
learned today. Some of the hos
pitals are- languishing for lack of
funds and it is hoped (lie tax will
have the effect of placing them on
a sound financial foundation.
the city and county convict labor bill
would, without the first two mens
iircs named, bo absolutely useless.
HnBklns for Health.
As the result of a Jury trial held
bcfoio Justice of tho Peace Glenn O.
Taylor yesterday, J. W. Sllnger, pro
prietor of a ranch near Urownsboro,
was ordered to pay O. .Murphy, pro
prietor of nn auto livery stable here,
the Bum of $11, contracted last May.
According to tho cvlde.fe 1 rought
out at the trial, Sllngor Inst May was
nn Inmate of a hospital hero and, be
ing at donth's door, a number of his
friends ordered Murphy to go to tho
ranch and bring Mrs. Sllngor to the
bedside of her husband. As tho trip
was a hurried one, made In three
hours, Murphy charged $2o for it,
but Sllngor rofimed to pay more thnn
$14. The enso wns brought to court
nnd $11 decided upon ns sufficient.
Tho costs, which amounted to more
than tho Judgment, woro ordered

Hasklns for Honlth
MULHOL'RNH, Feb. 2-l.-The fed
eral government has irono u step fur
ther in the campaign agnnnst the
Asiatics in Australia. Itogiilntions
hne juit betii issued which will have
the effect ot practically expelling
the orientiiS who ure engaged In
the pearl fisheries on tho north ocust
of Wc-t Australia.
Although the trade is worth to
the comomnwealth about 100,000
pounds sterling, the government has
made no scruple in carrying out its
policy. The ostensible reason for
the ministry's action is that the
"white Australia" policy permits of
no infringement such as arc caused
by the presence of the peuilers on the
coasts, but the real reason is that
tho authorities charged with the duty
of securing the defences of the isl
and arc anxious lest the Japanese
have an opportunity of spying out
the laud.
