TAX PAYER IS ENTITLED TO IN . FORMATION.; : Taa maJneseof taa vote east for the new board of aldermen on last Tuesday, at the dty polls, cannot be aaed as s comparison tqprovethe interest the tsz payer has In his atnnldpal affairs. The primary contest some weeks ago determined the nomination of the alder men, at the same time practically elected the nominees, Tuesday's election being merely the legal vote. With the aew etty officials e lee ted, and only wilting to be sworn la and enter upon their municipal duties, it would ap pear time for a public municipal ao- counting of the various city properties, aa sooouatlng which should not "be simply' a' perfunctory one at a board meeting, but an accounting to that soowwlat important personage, the Taz PXe. ' - If tha present city administration quietly dissolves through time limita tion, Is the Tax payer to look to the incoming administration, and hold It re sponsible for the outgoing administra tion's sins of omission and commis sion? Granting that the new board of Alder men and Mayor, are willing to accept whatever burden of obligation such a preoedure might give them, yet this does not absolve the present administra tion from making a public accounting of Its stewardship to the Taxpayer. Twenty or thirty thousand dollars, or - whatever sum It may be In taxes col lected, and their expenditure, together with various city properties, are not matters of light concern to the Tax payer. There Is much to be learned of the ad ministration and conduct of these mat ters, and very soon, a few days, and there will be a change of city adminis tration! an' accounting can be passed. , r the Taxpayer to ask for a public acoountlng of this city's affairs of those who have had these affairs In charge, appears reasonable and rational. The Taxpayer Is surely entitled to full In formation on this matter. Deafness CiBftot be Cured by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear.

Skipper gathered that he was tu Iking about him. - Skipper learned that be was still only six yeara old and that he had been owned as a saddle borne by a lady who was about to sail for Europe nud was oloslng out her stable.

The man wanted to know how much tbe gentle men were willing to pay for a bay gelding of this description. Some one ou the outer edge of the crowd said, "Ten dollars." At this the man on the box grew quite Indlgnunt. He asked If the other man 'wouldn't like n sliver mounted harness nnd a lap robe thrown In. "Fifteen," said another man. Somebody else said "Twenty," an other man said "Twenty -Ave," and still another '"thirty." Then there was a bitch. The man on the box began to talk very fast Indeed.

These terms are thus alluded to by Thcophrastus: "Both these (beryl, carbuncle, otnphax, crystal and amethyst) and the sard are found on breaking open certain rocks, presenting certain differences, but agreeing in name with each other. For of tbe sard the transparent and Mood red sort ts called the female, while tbe leas transparent and darker kind la termed tbe male, and the cja una also Is named one sort the roslo and the other the female, but the male la the deeper In color of tbe two."
