This was the boast made by a business man of this city last evening, one of German descent. An associate in his office called him up on the 'phone and told him that the city tax collector had not heard from him in regard to the payment of hta street tax, and if he would come to the office at once and pay the $3, he would be relieved of the usual fine of five dollars and costs, amounting to $8. The Teuton immediately wrote out a check for the $3 and sent his assistant to the city hall with it.

But it was late in the afternoon and the offices there were closed. But the prompt street tax payer was bumptious. "Dere iss nudding like standing In mit de fellers," he remarked, as he strutted about the office. "Dot vas midy kind off mine friend? of the city official force." When told the joke he looked like sauer kraut soured. Back Tax Man: Back Tax 'Commissioner Joseph V.

Allen, of Jefferson county, with headquarters at Birmingham, was at the Exchange hotel last night. Mr. Allen said he was only here becausre he was here.

Three Old Timers: Three old time baeeball players who attained a national reputation in the big leagues when Connie Mack was behind the bat, are still in the mind of Connie. Yesterday he "reminiscensed" to the effect that Patsey Tebeau was now running a cafe in St. Louis; Scrappy Joyce, the only leader who ever put the Washington, D. baseball club in any position, was still in Kerry Patch, a section of the Mound City, running a grocery and often went, over and fanned with Patsey. The Irish and the Hebrew would sometimes have a disagreement and there would be base hits, foul blows and afterward "spikeing." Not with the shoe clamps- but some Smile Still There: Another Connie talked of was Al Maul, pitcher and outfielder.

Al led the big league in batting season, when, he was playing left field. He then went to pitching and his arm gave out in Washington. He then went into the diamond brokerage business, made ft success, but the sound of the bell called him back to his old love and he is now scout for the Philadelphia Athletics. Hack says he is an excellent judge of young material and his salary is such that Al can continue to wear diamonds as well as the old smile, which is always on his face. riends Gerichs III MB The Time calls attention to the law regarding the returns of the election to be pulled off in this county and state on next Monday.

The provision now is that the officers in charge of the boxes at the different polling places must make all returns to the sheriff of the county within twenty-four hours after the polls have been closed. It has been a matter of considerable delay and trouble In the past to get the returns into the hands of the Fheriffs of the different counties of the state promptly. The new law requires that prompt attention be given to this matter by the officers in charge. Heretofore the late returns have caused many charges to be made concerning stuffing boxes, alleged discrepancies and other rumors that are not creditable to the clerks and managers of the elections. The new provision of the law in this respect is intended to do away with this kind oC dissatisfaction.

The law makes it an offense as a misdemeanor not to make the returns promptly as specified by the statute. It is believed that the coming election will be much more satisfactory in this Kespact than has been heretofore experienced in elec tions over the state. This new feature of the law is expected to be a boon to the people who always anxiously the results of the elections over the state. They ought to be able to get full and complete news of the election within thirty-six hours, thus giving the newspapers twelve hours for the dissemination of the election news after they are turned in to the sheriffs of the state.

She had a spirit which elevated mere manners into realities of love and kindness, and she had that rarest gift In a Christian, the tpower to make piety an enchant-. ment for those about her.

She had a vocation for making a home that was a haven; and she bad a geniua for hospitality, especially to strangers, so grave in Its simplicity, so warm even In ita silence, that such an one waa forced to feel her expectation of the 'angel Few women ever gave more that waa good, and asked or expected less of the world.
