FERRIESGOMPANY
WILL MAKE TEST
Auditor Expected to Decline to
I Comply With New Act to
i Try 1 li> Point.
j III all probability the test over
'.State Auditor C. Leo Moores recently
announced determination to tax city
and county properly if used In part
1 or as a whole for purposes of revenue,
will come over compliance with
Senate bill NO. Z'.'V. passed by the last
Legislature, it may bo safely said
that the Auditor does not expect to
I comply.
I The greatest interest has been
aroused 'luougbout the State over
i Mr. Moore's new policy and construc?
tion of tin- law. Under his direction,
commissioners of the revenue arc as?
sessing city and county property,
such as gas plants, electric plants
[and water plants, which sell their
product to the public. It is the
Auditor's ruling that under the Con?
stitution these properlies sie not
used exclusively for the purpos.es of
the locality.
The merits of the case will come
up at an early day, and may arise at i
any moment, In the matter of the '
! Ferries Company, senate hill No. 'J99,
Introduced by Senator s. T. Montague I
jand passed, sets forth the details, j
State taxes, it seems, Were assessed for '
1H0J, 1910 and 1911 against the county,
of Norfolk and the city of 1'orts- j
I mouth, the owners of the terminals
I of the ferries which ply the Elisa?
beth River. The Circuit Court de- I
elded these taxes to be illegal, and'
I that the real estate was nonassessable
for State taxtlon, being the property
of the city and county.
I Refund Rig Hill,
i The Ferries Company paid Hie
taxes, amounting to $992.10, with
Which it charged the city and county
which are the owners. The bill In
the Legislature was to direct the
Auditor to issue Iiis warrant for this
sum. and thereby rofund It.
When the Governor saw the bill he
said he would sign it. but gave pretty
strong Intimation that ho would
direct the Auditor not to pay the
money. Inasmuch as Mr. Moore has
already declared himself on this
point, lie will not require much ad?
monition.
So when demand is made for Hie
warrant as mentioned in Hie act, the
whole matter will be precipitated in
tlio courts.
It is understood that if the State,
wins Its point, it will not find it dif?
ficult to consummate the desired
trade with the city of Richmond for
part of the Ford Hotel block. The j
city does not need tt all. and will be
taxed on the entire property if it I
uses any part to gain public revenue.
Therefore. It will be. the more de?
sirous to sell.
Appentll.v to Annual tteport.
The appendix to the ninth annual re.
port of the State Corporation Com?

freight classification with the excep
I tion sheots, the mileage freight rates,
the tariffs of express rates and tho
tolcgraph rates, having the forco of

There is nothing quite like them in

ami they havo beon gradually clliuln
lUing the former grossly objectionable
leatures of tltoir program. To-day. In?
deed, there Is no doubt whatsoever,
that the entertainment at tin various
music halls In London und in tho pro?
vinces Is, though not specially rellnod,
innnltely moro moral and wholes>rao
than nine-tenths of tno filthy plays
that uro given In the moat popular

rendered In English.
Tho other day a benefit entertain?
ment was given ut the Palace Music
Hall in Lonuon. for the beuciit of too
employes and victims of tliu music
hall that had boon destroyed by lire in
Edinburgh lust year. To the amaze?
ment of everybody, the King und (jueen
announced their intentions of bslng
present, and attended the porformanco
with Just a trlllo moro state and royal
pomp than when they visit tho opera.
King Edward, even as Prince of Wal-s,
never ventured to visit a music hall,
Bavo with tho utmost secrecy, conceal?
ing himself behind the curtain of a
box, so as not to bo seen by tho public,
fearing newspaper criticism. Hut King
George and yuoen Mary havo gone
there openly, with no concealment of
their royal state, with n> attempt at
incognito, and have thereby relieved
the music hall of the stigma, under
which It has always suffered until now.
and have given It tho stamp of their
approval us u respectable und repu?
table form of evening entertainment.
It seems a little thing tor them to
havo done, and yet it will accomplish
much, und add to their ever growing
popularity. It will Imbue tho lower mid-j
die classes, tj whom tho music hull)
hits been th; principal form of muslculj
i and theatrical entertainment, with the
.isnurauce that it is thoroughly repu?
table, since It has received the appro?
val of sovereigns who are already noted
for their strict sense of the proprie?
ties of lifo, and from henceforth tho
people will no linger foci that lit spend?
ing their evening at the music hull
they are doing something that Is lack?
ing In respect, cither to themselves or
to their Wives., children, or sweet?
hearts.
Of couTse, It will enormously Increase
the music hall business throughout the*
land, and the management will, from
motives of policy, if fir nothing ols ?,
feel themselves compelled to keep ih-ir
shows up to the standard of respectabil?
ity, which won for them the approval
of the sovereign and "als consort.
Tho Sir Thomas Meyrlck. of Aplcy
Castle, in Shropshire, who has iust been
indulging in his favorite pastime of
litigation, this tlmo with a firm of gas
plant engineers, of Bradford-on-Avoh;
and whoso baronetcy dates from lSsu,
must not be confound>d with Sir George,
Meyrlck, of Dordorgati; Anglesea, and
<>f Chrtstchurch, Hants. Sir George is
the owner of almost the whole of
Bournemouth, tho growth of which
has made, htm very rich indeed, and hu
is also one of thi collateral descend?
ants of tho great Sir Francis Drake.
It Is only on the dtst.ift sld'? that he
belongs to the Meyrlck family, which
has been in the possession of Mordor
gan. in Anglesea, for over a thousand
years, and bori the name of Jervls,
until Hiithorlcd by the crown to as?
sume both the arms and the. nanio of
Meyrlck of Bordorgan. This ancient
family became extinct In the male
lino at the close of the 'eighteenth cen?
tury, when Bordorgan passed from
Owen Putland Meyrlck, the. last of his
line, to the only son of Iiis eldest
daughter, by her marriage with Augus?
tus Fuller, of Rosehili Park, Sussex.
Ho assumed the name of Meyrlck. by
warrant of the crown. In addition to
his patronymic of Fuller, and also Iho
armorial bearings of tho Moyrlcks. Dy?
ing unmarried, he was succeeded by
his nephew. Sir Georgo Jervls, who
thereupon became Sir Georgo Moyrick,
Owen Rutland Meyrlck, lust of the
Moyrlcks of Bordorgan In the male
line, had two younger brothers. Rich?
ard and Purs. Tho former was en?
gaged to Lady I,-icy Pitt and the other
to Lady Jane Cholmondoley. They re?
solved to bo married by tho parson of
the Fleet prison, which of courso ;n
abled them to dispense with the pre?
liminary banns. On their way to the
prison, tho young ladles proposed an
exchange of bridegrooms. The latter
agreed, and Lady Juno Cholmondoley
became tho wife of Richard Meyrlck,
und Lady Lucy Pitt, the wife of P'ers
Meyrlek. Tho marriages, amazing to
relate, turned out very happily, though
