Sold Pilot OBSERVATIONS OF Last week we printed in this columnomethingconcerning college haz ing and we find the following pointed remarks on the subject by the Balti- Hazing Again. more Sun : "How imperfect is our civilization is illus trated by the continuance of the practice of hazing and the unwillingness of boards and of trustees, faculties, grand juries, police courts and police men to stamp it out. That college boys should be barbarous is not so sur prising, in view of their immaturity, but what is shocking is the attitude of many of their seniors. It shames our reputed culture that many fami- - Ilea have only a varniaK at U.-i4g- - J a .1 , nt70r nii.0--u" "mv"' sity is found a number of bullies and toughs whose distorted ideas of 'fun' are accepted by the public." t t t T A well informed colored man was speaking to the editor of The Com monwealth about how small some men can become. He referred to the Calls Him Little. something that such a man does not endorse be will at once have his pa per discontinued. Such a man becomes so little, he said, it's a wonder he doesn't fall into an ant hole and get lost. Well, that ie contracting a man very much, we must admit, but we are compelled to say that the figure ot speech was well employed. It is very simple in any person to suppose any newspaper can pursue a policy or give expressions sbat will suit every one who reads it. To do such a thing would mean a separate issuse of the pa per for each reader, which would put most of us out of bubiness at the end of the first issue. But from the colored man's viewpoint, some people would better look out, lest they fall into the ant hole and gel lost. tut The Southern Industrial Parliament to be held in Washington on May 23rd, promises to be an occasion of great concern and interest to the South. Southern Industrial Parliament. part of the country. For instance, there has been a feeling abroad in the North and in. the West, and perhaps elsewhere, that the climate of the South is unsalubrious, and that investments here are not always sate. These theories, opinions, notions, or whatever you may call them, will be correct ed and the greatness of the South and its great possibilities and advantages made clear. The scheme was conceived by a few Southern Congressmen, and has met with great favor. Dr. Walter Murph .formerly of North Caro lina, but for a number ot years a resident in Washington, is taking an act ive interest in the movement, and has been appointed to conduct the cor respondence and details of the meeting. He is reported as saying a few days ago in Washington : "No assemblage of Southern representatives since the adjournment ot the Sbceesion Convention in Charleston, f5. C , in 1861, is fraught with greater interest to the people of the South than the Southern Industrial Parlia ment, which will convene at 10 o'clock, forenoon, in the city of Washing ton, D. C, on the 23rd day of May, 1905. The results of the Charleston Convention was secession, disunion, fraternal strife and war. The object of the coming parliament is commercial fellowship, industrial growth, Ameri can supremacy, one language, one country and one flag." t t t t The following item has been sent to The Commonwealth with request to print ; and as it relates to a matter of good interest to the State we gladly print "An act Collection of Taxes. the sheriff and tax collector of a county, city or town, whenever he is in formed that a tax-payer has removed from his county, city or town without paying the taxes listed for that year, to maKe inquiry as to where the tax payer has removed, and in the rettlement of the sheriff or tax collector be shall state under oath that he ha made faithful inquiry for the location ot ail tax-payers who have removed from his county, city or town owing tax fcr the fiscal year, or the same shall be charged to him and not be allowed in his insolvent list, and if any officer has not complied with any law to en force collection of taxes at all times he shall be charged with the same. After making inquiry ,if the officer finds that the tax-payer who has remov ed from his county, city or town without paying his taxes listed for that year, and has no property known to the collecting officer, he shall make a report ot the same with the return of the tax receipt to the register of deeds, who shall make out a certificate that the taxes were listed for that year, and that the same are due and reported unpaid by the collecting offi cer. The officer shall send the receipt and certificate to the collecting offi cer of the county, city or town to which the tax-payer has removed, and the same shall be a tax list In his handa for the collection of said taxes. The tax collecting officer to whom the tax receipt has been sent, shall pro ceed to collect the taxes and shall repwt his proceedings to the officer from whom he received the tax receipt within sixty days. If the tax-payer is insolvent and the taxes cannot be collected.the officer shall return the tax receipt under his oath that he has used duo diligence in making the collection by levy, garnishment or otherwise, and that the tax-payer is in solvent,otherwise be shall be liable on his boci for the taxaa to be collected in a suit."

Kidney trouble often ends fatally ,but by choosing the right medicine, E. H. Wolf, of Bear Grove, Iowa, cheated death. He says : "Two years ago I had Kidney Trouble.which caused me great pain, suffering and anxiety, but I took Electric bitters, which effected a com plete cure. I have also found them of great benefit in general debility and nerve trouble, and keep them constant ly on band, since, as 1 find they have no equal." E. T.

I want to go back to the sweet mys terious places, The crook in the creerbed nobody knew but me, Where the roots in the bank thrust out strange, knotty faces, Scaring the equirrels vho stole there timidly. I want to lie under the !orn and bear it rustle, Cool and green in a bDg, straight, soldierly row, I am tired of white-facet women and men of iron, I want to go back whee the country grapses grow. Tothe well-iemerfilrr?d pasture's Where under the trees the wild ferns wove their laces, , Hearing the whippoorwll's voice In its strange, rich sainess. I want to go back to tfe old, beloved places. A TWICE TOLDTALE. We wish lo repeat what we have said once before in these columns that Elliott's Emulsified Oil Liniment is the best liniment evtr produced for use in the family aid on animals. Best for rheumatism, lameness, stiff ness and soreness of joints or muscles. Best for bruises, contusions, sprains and swellings. You get a full half pint for 25 cents and ge; your money back if it does not do all it is recom mended to do. E. T. WhiUhead & Co !
