Permit me to suggest another reform that should be inaugurated and that Let the tax bill foreach year contain a statement of the total amount due for taxes on tue property to which it relates. ‘The propriety of following the suggestion I make was impressed upon me by te following instance which came to my notice: Eleven years ago by the death of the father title to a certain house and lot in this city passed to the children by descent. Each year the taxes bave been —_ tly paid. Last fall the prop- erty was sold and the purchaser procured a cer- tificate of taxes due, which showed that there was due upon the property more than three hundred dollars, being the principal and inter- @st upon taxes levied in the lifetime of the ancestor. More than half of the amount was accrued interest on the sum originally charged. The owners of the property did not know of the existence of any back taxes. They were able and willing to pay all they owed and had they been notstied of the amount due would have paid it. As it was they, of course, had to settle ali claims before effecting a sale of the property and received several hundred doilars s# than they expected to receive when they made the sule. believing the property to be free from all incumbrances. Porsibly there are many cases where back taxes are due of which the owner knows nothing and upon which in- terest is accumulating at 4 rapid rate. Should a) rome suggested be carried into effect 1t would be in the line of good adminis- tration and I can think of no good objection to it. A similar practice, 1 am told, obtains in x Philadelphi To oS 2 ee xpedite Court Businsss.

Waters and Hail, the fox was bagged. Mr. Fields being taken sick aud gone home in the meantime the party concluded to go to bis place and turn Reynard loose.

Attorney Hazelton, in pursuance to a request from the Commissioners yesterday afternoon submitted his opinion relative to short-weight bread. It will be remembered that Mr. Frank Aldrich, the sealer of weights and measures, culled the Commissioners’ attention to the sub- ject of light-weight bread in the District and alluded to the Vienna bread as being nearly always under weight.

Col. Geo. H. Elliott, engineer in charge of | the Washington aqueduct, has addressed a | letter to the Secretary of War calling attention | to the danger to the health of the city resulting from the proximity of the “Drovers’ Rest” cattle pens, on the Conduit road, to the dis- tributing reservoir, The pens are located at the angle made by the junction of Conduit and Newent roads and are separated from the reser- voir only by a few feet. On the other side of | Neweut road are the slaughter yards used in | connection with the “Rest,” and a tavern for the entertainment of drovers stands” just west of the junction. Col. Elliott points out that the pensare a continual menace to thecity, being so located that whenever it rains heavily the water is liable to overflow into the reservoir, carrying with it a large quantity of polluting matter from the yards and poisoning ies source | of drinking water for the entire city. A light footboard at the base of the fence surrounding the reservoir is now all that prevents such an overflow from occurring at every heavy rain, Col. Elliott therefore recommended that Con- gress be asked to appropriate $5,500 for the urchase of this property, He thinks it should improved by drainage, the removal of the present sheds and buildings and the Rianne of trees, thus converting it into @ sort of par! by the roadside.

CURED BY CUTICURA, About two years ago I was attacked with an inflam- matory disease on my face (vetyriasis), which was very troublesome, being extremely itchy and painful, giving rise to the production of small bran-like scales, My wencral health was affected by it. I used the CUTICURA RESOLVENT, CUTICUKA and CUTICURA SOAP ac- cording to directions, and experienced a change from the very first day; they worked wonderfully, and by their continued use for about five months 1 was com- pletely cured. Lhave unbounded faith in the CULT- CURA REMEDIES. I regard the CUTICURA RE- convince eny one, The CUTICURA SOAP is the best in the market, aud cheap at twice its present price.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer. In the early part of September last Frank W. Mangan of 405 Christian street dropped into the restaurant of Henry F. Steinhardt at 10th and Sansom streets and ordered an oyster stew. Upon coming to settle his bill he discov- ered that his cash was short and tendered as security a four per cent government bond worth $500. Shortly after the transaction Special Officer John Dean heard of the case and called on Mr. Steinhardt, He secured the number of the bond, which was 62.325, and re- ported the matter to Chief of Detectives Wood. In the meantime Mr. Steinhardt, who did not know the full value of the collateral left with him, put the bond away and forgot all aboutit. A few weeks ago he accidentally ran across it | and found out its worth. A friend offered him 2400 for it. He jumped at the offer and with the purchaser went to the office of Drexel & Co, and had it converted into cash, receiving its full value. His friend by the operation just realized one hundred dollars profi, The bond | was then entirely forgotten. Last Saturday Mr. Mangan put in an appear- aute at Steinhardt’s restaurant and almost par- | alyzed the proprietor by a request for the re- turn of the bond, at the same time tendering the change for the oyster stew. It was an awk- ward predicament for Mr. Steinhardt. Threats | were made of resorting to the law, and after the lapse of two days Mr. Steiuhardt finally on Mondgy paid Mangan the full value of the | and la grippe, at Witice’s, 1320 and 2200 Pa, | Te. qt M. & P.

A Man Who Built Many Famous Build- ings in Engiand, From the Baltimore 5: Mr. George Clark, a native of Bristol, Eng- land, died yesterday morning of old age at the Church home, North Broadway, aged cighty- nine years, He was an architect and was for forty-three years with Sir Gilbert Scott, the most famous ecclesiastical architect of his day. Mr. Clark superintended the decorations and arrangements of St. James’ palace on the occa- sion of the first ball ever attended by Queen Victoria, As superintendent of construction for Sir Gilbert Scott he had charge of work on | the royal palaces at Windsor, Frogmore, Buck- | ingham and St. James, He built the cathedrals at Chester, Lichfield, Ripon and Abbey churches in Yorkshire, at Croydon in Surry, New Castle | in Staffordshire, St. Johns, Leicestershire and over forty churches elsewhere. Among the many private residcnces he built were those of the duke of Buccleigh, the duke of Cadogan in Pali Mall and of Sir Asheton Smith in Hyde Park Gardens, The old gentle’ took much pride in speaking of his architectual work and of his contract with and rubbing against royaity and the peerage. Among the pleasant incidents he related was an occurence at Frog- more, the royal residence of the queen and prince consort in their early married life. When work on the palace was completed “rearing” flags were hoisted and dispiayed from the tops of all the chimncysof the palac Prince Albert sent for Mr. Clark and inquired what it meant. He was informed that it was a signal that work on the palace had been com- pleted and the workmen expected a treat, whereupon the prince instructed Mr. Clark to have the foreman to allow his mona holiday and gave alla bountiful English dinner, He leaves one daughter, the wite of Mr. Crook, late organist at St. Paul's Episcopal church in this city. = eS ee The coke men of the Connellsville region are said to be in the mood to insist on the conces- sion of their demand for a 20 per cent increase of wages and a strike is deemed probable.
