no dlfforonco. In what month the levy
Is in ado, so that the county court Is
notified on January 1st so that tho
county clork can enter und extend tho
lrvy on tho roll. Tho quostlon camo
up as tho result of tho action of a
school district In Columbia county In

The Jail Celebrates,
Tho city Jail had Its usual holiday
display, but, while tho crowds wore
largo tho purchasers were few. The
gladsome Yuletlde caused the boys to
look too lovingly on tho red foraont,
and listen too long to tho siren voice
of Tom and Jerry. A few fines wore
paid, but Christmas turkoy waa sold
to be rather scarce. Now Year's will
give those who failed to take advan
tage of Christmas a cbauco to take In
the delights of "tho day aftor."
