Commissioner Powell sprung a new law
point lately which will be of interest to
the tax collectors, landlords and tenant
of this county. It is the law in regard to
holding a tenant for the taxes against the
property occupied by him. Heretofore it
nas been the custom if tax collectors in
8.-e the landlord failed to pay hia takes
to hold the tenant for them, irrespective
f tto time the tenant occupied the prnp
rtp, but there v, t» a proviso made in the
aw m Javor of the tenant which wa=
nev-r construed rightly To hold a tenant
for taxes he must be in possession of the
property Ri.on the assessment was made,
otherwise he is not liable. A few tai col
lector- are iu .re of this law but it is not
generally knon among them. Tne com
mic-loners will notify all tax collectors of
this fact and instruct them to observe it.

An Interesting Romance.
Twenty-five years ago John Hayiuan
then a young man w'th a little cash and
an ambition anrl an abundance of deter
mination, left Butler county and went
West. After drifting a few years lie
settled in lowa. For a few years he
prospered and after baying a farm niar
ri..! a pretty girl in neighborhood, With
two mouths to feed he redoubled hi', ef
forts and his young bride proved a faith
ful helpmet. In due course of time a
little boy come to brighten an already hap
py ho:i In a few ytars another was added
to the family. Then crops were poor and
John was compelled to go into debt.
Kastern money shaiks got a mortgage on
his farm. The balance of the story is
soon told. More babies until there were
six, poor crops, big doctor's bills and in
tercLs ate up all his earthly possessions,
and last fall he loaded his family and the
few things he managed to save into a
"prairie schooner'' and with two blind
horses as the motive power, a start was
made for his old home in Butler county,
where he expected to meet his only
brother and begin life anew on the old
farm which he left a quarter of a century
ago. After suffering untold privations,
being assisted by numerous kind hearted
people along the way and snowed up for
several weeks at a stretch, he reached
Sunbury a few weeks ago. The "schoon
er" attracted considerable curiosity and
the man's story was listened to with a
great deal of interest. When he told
that he was going to the home of his
brother Henry a few miles out in the
country a bystander remarked:
*'Hen Hay man has been dead several
years; come with me and I will show you
his grave."
With a heavy heart Hay man accom
panied him to the cemetery where he
read on a small tombstone this inscrip
tion:
"Henry llayman, born December 6,
1840, died May n, 1890"
"The name and date of birth is right,"
said Mr. Hayman, "and I guess poor
Hen's gone to his long home," and with
tear bedimed eyes he left the cemetery
and v. a . soon on his way to the old farm-
About a mile out of town he meet a man
driving leisurely and inquired the way
to the farm where Hen. Hayman,s widow
lived.
"Hen. Hayman has no widow yet?'
remarked the stranger, "because Hen. is
too alive."
The two compared noses for a few
minutes when the stranger announced
that he was Henry llayman and that the
marble cutter had made a mistake in let
tering the tombstone in the cemetery.
The grave was that ol his child. The
two brothers after their long separation
will live 011 adjoining farms.— Ex.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
What promises to be one of the biggest
sensations known in Allegheny Co., in
connection with the illegal sale oi oleomar
garine and the prosecution ot the dealer?,
is a proposed action of County Controller
Grier to compel the dealers prosecuted to
pay oyer about $35,000 t'» the county.

cases on the issue docket in the prothouo
tary's office. It is regarded as an action
ia lino with iir. Grier's duty. Numerous
attorneys are charged with blackmailing
dealers and allowing cases to remain on
the issue docket, instead of placing thtm
on tee trial list, and representing to these
dealers, scattered in every part of the
county, that their cases were sa'.tiel for a
small aoine of money.

"Xever dispute with a woman, unless
she is yonr wife,'' says a philosopher iu
the Florida Times-Union.
Never dispute with your host. He may
have several bottles left.
N'ever dispute with a friend unless you
have no favors to ask of him.
Xever refuse alms to a beggar. He may
ba a sand-bagger in disguise.
Always laugh at your employers' jokes.
I', pleaeet him and doesn't hurt you any.
If you are reprimanded by your boss,
take it out ou the mac. or boy under you.
Always try to look pleasant when the
dentist is pulling your teeth. This fn

Never loan a dollar to a rich man. Ilis
memory is unable to grapple with such a
small amount.
Never dispute a bill. Wait until it is
outlawed and you may be able to compro
mise at 50 cents ou the dollar.
