A. P. He was on one side of a ravine with his small force. The enemy occupied the other side in thousands, keeping well in bush cover, To go straight across at iherti might mean another Isandiila, and Sit* Evelyn was too cute fo be caught in a trap of that sort. Sir Evelyn pondered the position for a time and then culled for one of tho best bitslnnon among the ir­ regulars. The Scotchman who re­ lated the incident was selected, and the general asked hint if he could contrive to draw the enemy from Cover. The end was that the hardy irregulai* rode away round out of sight under a kloof and came on up the ravine .as if he were not aware of the presence of either party. Dis­ mounting, he started to make a fire, as if about to camp. Soon tho Zu­ lus came rushing down the slopes after him in great masses, and the next moment shrapnel shells from Wood’s camp were playing among them. A large number were killed, and the rest cleared off for good, much alarmed hy the sharp lesson. “I galloped baekunder the shells,” said the Scotchman in recalling the incident, “an’ when I got in the general came up an’ shook hands wi’ me. He gied me a bottle o’ Hiampecn, too, an’, fivhat was bet­ ter, he changed it when I askit him for-a bottle of whtiskeyl” Dr. P. B.

HI* avowed aim J* to lessen the ta x burden of the people of the coun­ ties. The first o f his bills provides for a tax of two and one-half per cent on. the cro** premium receipts c f fraternal and benevolent 'societies. The second raises the tax on old line Insurance company premiums 'from two and one-half, to three per cent. The third place,3 a tax of one-tenth o f one per cent on the au­ thorized capita! stock of all the pri­ vate corporations organized under the; laws of Ohio, The fourth provides for an Increase o f the excise tax now levied upon steam railways from one- balf of one per cent to one per cent, and makes the law apply to ail other corporations of a quasi-public nature, like, telephone and telegraph compan­ ies. gas. electric light and .-the like, , The governor has several other bills a ll Intended,to increase the revenues of the 'state and reduce those receiv­ ed by the counties, but these bill* are the ones on which the visiting delega- gations have -principally -talked;- The most important meeting held by the joint committee was to > a e senate chamber Tuesday nighjfe^When delega­ tions (torn Cincinnati, Dayton, Toledo and Cleveland were heard. Charles T. Lewis of New York, representing the New York Life and the Equitable Life insurance companies, stated that the proposed Increase would fall directly upon the people holding policies In in­ surance companies;'that it was plac? ing a burden on widows and orphan* and would eventually make Insurance so expensive that poor men would not be able to lay aside any of their say­ ings to provide a fund for their fam­ ilies after their deaths. John M, Fattison. president of the Union Central Life Insurance com­ pany, of Cincinnati, declared that * tax on the premiums of insurance, companies was barbarism, as it made ' a man pay taxes on the dollar that bo . paid to tome other man's widow. Tbe only roafcon for taxing them at ail is to maintain the insurance department of the state, the expenses of which are |?S,000 a year, Hia company now pays 580,000 in taxes to the state ev­ ery year.j It the proposed increase be­ came effective his company would have to pay fl20,QOQ a year and that, would mean an Increased cost to those who invest their savings in insurance policies.* * Ex-Representative Charles Qriffln of Toledo, headed a delegation from Lu«. cas county to protest against the bill to. levy, a tsx on the capital stock of private corporations. Ex-Qovernor Bushnell of Springfield added his pro­ test Against the passage of this bill, E. W. Dow, a big Toledo merchant, nerved notice that if the bill was pass­ ed his company would leave the state and throw many Ohio men out of em­ ployment. tter over a dozen repre­ sentative Republicans from various sections of the state had spoken, Sen­ ator Longworth, chairman of the com­ mittee, asked Mayor Tom fo Johnson of Cleveland what he thought of the governor’s measures, Mayor Johnson ssld: "This ‘Willis bill to tax the author fzed capital stock of private corpora­ tions in Ohio, and Its neighbor, the Cole bill, which proposes to levy an ex­ cise tax of one per cent on the gross tamings of quasi-public corporations are two of the worst bills I have ever read. In my limited knowledge of leg­ islative affairs, 1 have never seen any­ thing so unjust The Willis bill Is per­ nicious and outrageous. It purposes to oppress sad harass the very people who sre the blood of the commercial Hfe of our state. It would crush or drive beylnd the borders of Ohio the manufacturing and commercial com­ panies, to foster which should be one of tbe highest duties of the legislature, The Cote blU to levy a trifling excise tax on ths great public service corpora tipns Is ineffective and Insufficient U is positively silly. In what it lacks H tends to work almost as great an in­ justice on th* people of Ohio as does the Willis bill. The Willis measure, If It became a law, would impdse tfi* lame amount of taxes on stock Of s' corporation worth $10 a share as It would on stock worth $200 a shark "Two companies .have the same amount of authorized capital stock and the stale would require that they pay an equal amount of taxes regard­ less of the tact that one may have only r 60 per cent of Its stock paid In of that Its flock fs worth In the market $00 less per Share than its face value, while ‘the stock of tlfo other company is Worth $100 per share more than its face Value; « ’Take two form* side by sMA They ete eompoird of an- equal, number of acres cf gronud. but the enc is- meadow land, rich *nd feitlle, While the other Is bllUid* land, Stony Shd espiedoodre.

Johnnie, “ for wa’rfi go.-ng to haya dinner a« soon a# yon ieava;”—Philadelphia Olograph. > CONDENSED STORIES. Dr. MUbum’s ’Congratalonal Wrayar and th# Roportsra. 'Hie Washington correspondent ot the Philadelphia jRecord tells of an amusing difference of opinion among the newspaper men and shorthand reporters in the senate. One dar not long ago Dr. Milburn, the blind chaplain of the senate, in his open­ ing prayer asked divine favor for the reporters who send ont accounts of what is done in congress. There are two classes of these reporter*— the newspaper men in ’ the gallery and the shorthand men on the floor who report for The Congressional Becord. Eaclr side a t once declared that the prayer was meant for ths other, ana in the controversy that arose an appeal was taken fo Chap­ lain Milburn, who promptly declar­ ed that all reporters were meant, u all needed to be prayed for. The discussion brought to light the fact that the chaplain’s prajsw are open to revision when occasion demands, just as the speeches of senators and representatives are. Ia 1873 Dr. Sunderland, the aenaft chaplain, mentioned a host of ptf* sons by name in a prayer and the next day found he had forgotten to say a word for Henry Wilson, the vice president of the xfnited State*, so the official reporters, after a tofi- sultation with Dr, Sunderland, in* terpolated a nice little prayer for the vice president.
