I l.fii) per M, and in 1 002 the rate was
11.10 per M. The collector of the
county at a reci-iit init'ting of our
hoard of freeholders said the county
was short of money and the damages
of the recent Hood to roads and
bridges will cause the tax rate to
remain near w here It is now.
Most of the bridges carried away,
in this town, were small wooden
structures and the damage is not
very great. The roads were badly
washed and that will cost quite a
sum to put thorn in order.

The democratic and republican
conventions have been held, and the
candidates are now before the public.
Both parties have nominated first
class men, and it only remains for the
voters to say which of them shall
gain the coveted prize. The demo
cratic convention condemns the pur
chase of voting machines, and rightly
too. The method of voting and the
elections of 30 years ago were good
enough and did not cost a tenth of
what they do now. The taxes are
getting pretty high and the voter
will soon look and vote iu favor of
economy.

Do Good it Pays.
A Chicago man l"is observed that.
Good deeds are bettor than real
estate deeds some of the latter are
worthless. Act kindly and gently,
show sympathy and lend a helping
hand. You cannot, possibly lose by
it." Most men appreciate a kind
word and encouragement more than
substantial help. There are persons
in this community who might truth
fully say : "My good friend, choor
up. A few dusoa of Chamberlain'
Cough Remedy will rid you of your
oold, and thoie is no danger what
ever from pnenmonia when you use
that niedioino. It alwiys cures. I

SAYS ONE WHO KNOWS
Beeklng Treasuro at a Depth of More
Thnrt 150 Feet.
During the coming siiminor, accord
ing to Jlrk Meyer, a deep una diver
who arrived In Seattle yestcrdny morn
ing, an attempt will bo made to ralsn
the Canadian faclflc Navigation Com
pany's Bteanier Islandor, lont on a re
turn trip from Lynn canal points to
Vancouver, B. C, about two years af?o,
and in wlilih dlpaater about fifty pas
senKers and members of the crew lost
their lives.
Many times reports have been given
out to the effect that tho vessel had
been located at different places along
tho AloKkan enact, afterwards to bo de
nied. Mr. Meyers stated yesterday
that last fall dipt. Henry French and
an engineer sent, out by the Navigation
Company, after dragging the waters In
the vicinity of the coast for two
months, Anally did locate the vessel In
152 feet of water, three miles from
Juneau. The find was made lata In the
fall, and, owing to tho cold weather
Betting In he says no attempt was
made to raise the vessel.
He has been engaged by the English
Marine Insurance Company to go to
Juneau In August, and go down to tho
boat and exploit her position, with a
view to raising her this summer.
"I have been employed by the Ma
rine Intiurance Company having the
risk on the Canadian Pacific Naviga
tion Company's steamer Islander,
which was lout whilo returning from
Lynn Canal about two years ago, to
dive and ascertain her position and
soo If she nan bo raised, " said Mr.
Meyer yesterday. "I will go up in
Augunt to Juneau, and some time dur
ing that month will go to the place
where she Is lying, about three miles
from Juneau, and go down to make an
investigation.
"There have been many reports
about the locating of the vessel sines
she whs lost. She was located last fall
by Cant. Henry French and an engi
neer sent out by the company. They
had been dragging for two months bo
fore they made the find. She lies in
l.ri2 feet of water, and there Is no
doubt In my mind but that she can ba
brought to the surface, unless some
thing unusual is present that I do not
anticipate now. If this is the case then
It Is very probable that a number of
the bodies of these lost with her will
be recovered, together with her Alas
kan treasure.
"Some people think that it is impos
sible to get a vessel lying in that
depth of water, but that is Incorrect.
Nine years ago I tnade a dive for the
British man-of-war Success at Mel
bourne, Australia, In ISO feet of water.
I succeeded In locating her position,
and she was raised. So It will be wth
the Islander.-
"I have been engaged in deep-sea
diving all my life, and have gone down
to vessels in all parts of the world. It
Is not possible for a diver to go to any
depth, as I learned while at work for
the United States Government at Sa
moa. During the building of the coal
ing station I got Into water 25 feet
deep, to my sorrow. I became par
alysed, and when I reached the top I
was almost dead. It took me Ten days
to recover. However, there Is no dan
ger In getting to where the Islander
rests, and, as I say, If I live, I will go
down to her In August. After I have
seen how she rests then I will be able
to report on some plan for her raising.
"At the time the Islander went down
she was a new boat, and therefore
should be in good condition. Lying at
her depth storms would not have any
effect on her, and therefore If Bhe Is
raised she will be suitable for commis
sion again as soon as she has been re
paired." Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
Heads as Affected by Latitude.,.
As to the hatters:
One of them said he did not believe
tobacco made men's heads smaller. It
might affect their brains, but, not be
ing a medical man, he was not sure.
lie thought the sice of men's heads was
entirely due to climatic influence, and
he has not noticed that there has been
a demand for smaller hats. Different
sections of the country wear different
size hats, ns:
The average man's head south of
Mason and Dixon's line and the north
ern tier counties of Pennsylvania the
average head is size 7. Northern Penn
sylvania and southern New York, 7
middie and northern New York, 7 1-4;
southern Canada, 7 3-8; latitude of
Fort Gray the average head is 7 1-2.
I'hiladelphia Bulletin.
Here Is a newspaper derivation of
the word "Canard. " A canard means.
In French, a duck; In English it has
come to mean a hoax or fabricated
newspaper Btory. Ha origin Is amus
ing. About fifty yeara ago a French
Journalist contributed to the Frenc h
press an experiment of which he de
clared himself to have been the au
thor. Twenty ducks were placed to
gether, and one of them, having been
cut up Into very small pieces, wan glut
tnaouBly gobbled up by the other nine
teen. Another bird vat then sacri
ficed for the remainder, and so en, un
til one duck was left which thu enn
Uined lu its inside Ihe other nineteen!
This the journalist ate. The tory
(a u'ht u, and wai copied Into all the
uewpapers of humpe. And thus tli
"caciarj" became immortalized.
