As to Panper Counties.
Mr. Taylor of Brunswick; prising
to a question of personal privilege,
called attention to the list of slleged
pauper conaties filed by the state
treasurer. He said the list included
many counties that would not be
there If the figures were to ihow
the amount of corporation tax psld
direct by the county into the state
terasury. Brunswick would not be ex
cluded by this rule, but s great many
counties would. .But Brunswick was
paying Its proportionate part of
taxes, compared' with other counties.
It had no large lt^nstrlsl city, b^t
has a largo county, with smsll pop
ulstlon, having a great deal or waste
and marah laad. It was near the
scene of the* hostilities during the
war, and had many old soldiers or
their widows on the pension list. The
climate was conducive to longevity
and these widows and veterans Used
to a>ipe old sge. as did other Bruas
i wick people. ?
It wm largely due to the (act that
Brunewlok received more money
from the state treasury la pensions
?lone, than It paid lato the stato
[treasury; that It was class** at. a
pauper county. Property was assess
ed at as* fair a rattte as property In
counties of the state- aad it

by Dynamite Explosion
New York, Feb. 2. ? A cargo of

|car To the hold of a lighter moored
at pier No. 7 Communlpaw. N. J., let
go at Just one minute past noon to
day, 60 yards south of the Jersey
City terminal of the Central railroad
of New Jersey and In the widespread
ruin that followed seven men are
known to have been killed, seven
more are missing hundreds were
wounded and varying reports leave
from fifteen to twenty more unac
connted for.
Thirty seems to be a conservative
estimate of the dead, and property
damage s wilt hardly fall below
[-9760,00#.
The cause of the explosion Is Va
riously attributed to the dropping
of ft case of dynamite 'and to a boilerj
Hon station on Kills Island; the shock
| was felt at AnltyvHle. Long Ialand
$S miles distant, end ia New Jer
sey at Long Branch, 4 5 miles away.
The damage is en widely scattered
It ts Impossible to nsore than
ronghly estimate It, but In Manhat

on Bllla Island at from $10,000 to
$t5,0J>0, and In el! "three quarters

fact that Clark saw 'flt to Indorse. the
