Reduction in Tax Levy.
The county commissioners
mot in regular session at Lill
rngton Monday and transacted
regular routine business. In
iiie afternoon they made settle
ments with the Sheriff and
Treasurer. So well have they
managed the affairs of the
icounty that, they deemed it no 1
necessary to levy so much tn>
; as for last year and reduced th«
Tax levy this year 13 1-3 cents
on the $lOO worth of property
and 40 cents on the poll from
that of last year. This reduc
tion is equal to taking off the
special tax on court house and
compromise debt bonds.

The United States Post Office

boxes we see along the highway
near town. These boxes ane
not the property of tiie indi
viduals. whose names th-y
have; but the property of the
Government.
Congress in establishing this
branch of the Post Oifiee De
partment, made it a crime
punishable bv imprisonment
in the penitentiary to break
down, injure or mutilate these
boxes. We mention this for
the purpose of directing the at
tention of the public- to tins
matter, hoping thcrr-bv to aid
our people, especially the young
men and boys, to understand
(-hat these mail boxes cannot be
tampered with. The courts
will punish those who injure
these boxes, the same as they
would a person who injured the
mails carried in any other mail

Buxton's Joke on Surry Man.
Mr. J. C. Buxton is responsi- j
ble for the following, wlfich the
Charlott' Observer prints:
"Sometime ago while at
tending court in Surry I was at
the table with the judge and
other lawyers when a frowsy
haired, rough-whiskered, dirty
looking fellow came in and took
a seat. Ilis coat was drawn
about his neck and he appeared
to be pulling through the last
stages of a back-lot spree. The
man opposite him at the table
looked him over and asked:
"John, ain't you kinder sham
ed to come to the table looking
like you do, with these gentle- |
j men, the judge and the law-'
lyers? I wouldn't thought you
could have done it.'
"Well,'said the fellow, 'I
tell you, George, since the
President of the country took
dinner with a negro in Wash
ington I've got so I ain't par
ticular who I eat with. That
the truth of it."

/s This Mule a Foot?
Out at the Gingham Mills in
I this city there is either a very
I clever or a very foolish mule,
i She works six days in the week
I and rests on the Sabbath ; and
the few daylight hours that this
mule has been kept in her stall
: after Sundayjiave been a period
jof great agony for the animal.
On the Sabbath she blinks and
I sleeps and nothing short cf
| force can make her leave her
stall, but at the break of day
Monday morning if somebody
I doesn't come and take her out
j and hitch her up to something
I she goes stark raving mad.
j Certainly the mule set an ex
ample that mankind may fol
low with profit—but is she a
, fool ?—Charlotte Observer.
Of course. Such a question !
i Anyhow, when anybody or any
! thing down this way acts after
| that fashion (or he) is at once
i labeled "danger," and the pub
i lie warned to steer the other
j way.

4 Great Criminal Desires to
Marry.
The notorious Jim Younger,
who followed Quantrell's black
flag into Lawrence, Kansas,
and was one member of Jesse
j James' outlaws, desires to
j marry again, but after consult
ing a lawyer. finds that he is
"civilly dead" under the law of
Minnesota, in which state he is
confined in the penitentiary
under sentence of life imprison
ment. This is now the law in
New York State which is only
declaratory of the common law.
This imprisonment in a num
ber of states is only a ground
for divorce if the prisoner is a
married man.
The old rule invalidated all
executory contracts made by
; the prisoner.
1 Younger seems to have ac
cumulated some property al
though incarcerated for nearly
thirty-two years in one of the
most strictly disciplined prisons
in the United States.
