Mr. Liacy wants to get in tne col lections from the 39 sheriffs who have not finished up their job for last year's taxes because he does not want to have to borrow money if it will be possible to avoid it. Next year the treasurer will not i have to worry so much about the set- tlements with the sheriffs, for the State levied no ad valorum tax for the present year, and all the money ' that is paid into the county sheriff's office will be immediately turned ov erthe county treasurer without coming through the State treasurer. The only money that will have to be sent to Raleigh will be the license and privilege taxes collected by the sheriffs from, time to time. This does not amount to a great deal, as compared with the money now being collected by the sheriffs. Most of the money coming fromthe cnunties now goes to the school fund for pay ment of teachers salaries. This, according to Mr. Lacy, has been about the most difficult year he has experienced in getting ' money from the tax payers. Raleigh Times. CHICHESTEHS PILLS A V THE IHA5I JNI K vTS.

"I walked the five and one-half miles uphill to Longwood, Napo leon's old home," the writer says, "and inspected his much neglected tomb which is down in a deep corner of a deep valley just a slab covered with dirty whitewash no inscription unkept and surrounded by a circle of tall trees, and there was nothing anywhere to tell a visitor when the body was removed, or to whom the old tomb had belonged."
