' - tlietanandßMhsay Tax Ow. I > ’ Haunts, Ann., Dee. 14. Sa«h CWM»OMrt to-day <*• petition fora writ of certiorari ot th* Arkansas MUU*ad Railroad Company against th. <3ollo<>t*rfor tiMpurpra* of quashing th. taxtevv assessment so far as it related to th* railroad company was argued in the Oranit Court upon demurrar to the petition _ |j(y M«ssra. Tappan and Horner for am rail road company and Judge Nichola and Maser*. Btephaiiaui> and Tribar for the county. The latter claims that the writ of certiorari was not the proper remedy, as it , weald prevent a proper contest as to the right of th* railroad company to be exempt from taxation. After the close of the argu ment oocniMd for plaintiff, by leave of the 'aourt/withdrew the petition for certiorari aadfiled a bal in equity to enjoin the Col loctor from collecting any taxes from it, and a temporary Injunction was granted by the Court upon the filing of a bond tor doublh the amount of the taxes. The basis a< the suit is that the railroad company claims to art under the charter of 1800, which exempts its property from taxation ■Mil <<■ earhings were ten per cent, on its capital stock, which the bill alleges to be jI,MOJNb. The county’s attorneys claim > -feat th* oM Arkansas Midland Railroad - finewpany went out of existence in MIO by consolidating with the Helena ft Little Rick Railroad Company, and a new corporation was formed; that the present company bought the property at a foreclosure sale for $45,- OJO, and that even if the old charter applies - its earnings exceed more than sufficient to pay a dividend of ten per cent. The ques tions involved in the suit are ot considera ble importance, and as the taxes due from rite company amount to nearly $2,000 an nually it is of some interest to tax-payers that unless clearly entitled to exemption by law it should contribute its proportion ate share of taxes to the county and the cily. The cause will possibly come up for final hearing, at the next term of court. It 14. stated that the owners of the Midland woeld have made no contest, and would have paid up under the railroad act of 1881, Imt as the Iron Mountain would pay nd taxes and fought the authorities before - the courts, they concluded to do likewise. Major Horner, of counsel for the Midland, said to-day that in his opinion the case may go to the Supreme Court of the United States before a settlement is reached. In . view of the fact that sueh a large amount of property is all off the tax books of the Oily when the burden of taxation is so heavy, and that the proposed compromise ran be reached easily by all the property liable being listed, the municipal authori ties propose to take a deep interest in the matter in the efforts to let no legal cause for taxation escape. Miscellaneous Items. The residence of Jas. A. Tappan, of Helena, caught fire a few mornings since, and assistance asked by telephone brought to the rescue enough citizens to put out the flames before the fire engine could get at work. Mrs. Daniels, wife of the notorious “Three Corners” outlaw of that name, com mitted suicide a few days ago, near Cedar Glades, by shooting herself with a rifle. Being unable to Are the gun with the caps, . which had become damp, the determined victim, with grim resolution, kindled a Are and placed the breech of the weapon in it, bolding the muzzle against her body till the Are discharged the fatal contents I through her vitals. The ball entered near the center of the stomach, ranging upward, passing out of the back and entering the ceiling ot the room. Death ensued about two o’clock in the afternoon. Halt a dozen little orphans are left to the world’s cold charity. Mrs. Daniels, although the wife ot fee terrible outlaw whose record of crime rivals during its brief period almost that ot fee James boys, was an intelligent and pleasant woman. The life ot her busband entailed upon her so much m sery that she was unable to bear up. Edmond Mitchell, a deck-hand on the I , steamer Van Etten, lying at Pine Bluff, was accidentally shot a few days ago by Curly Hewett, mate ot the boat. The mate accidentally lot a pistol fall, when the hammer struck fee floor and the barrel dir charged, the ball penetrating the ceiling Into the eook-room, where Mitchell stood. The ball passed through the unfortunate man’s right lung, an£ medical men thought fee wound would prove mortal. Stephen and John Bissell, who killed Cal. Green Cumby, near the mouth ol White River, iu Desha County, several weeks ago, and who escaped at the time, gave themselves up to • Esquire Watson, ot fee Wataon District and have stood their preliminary trial. John Bissell was dis charged by the Court and Stephen placed under SI,OOO bond for his appearance at the next term of the Circuit Court to answer to fee charge of manslaughter. , Another attempt was made a few nights ago to burn Arkansas City. A few minutes after eleven o’clock a fire was dis oovarsd inn narrow alley between J. C. Winston ft Ce.’a and Hong Lee’s, and by hard work was extinguished before any • damage was. done. Examination proved feat fee act was a deliberate one. A coal t oil can partially filled with oil was found on fee spot. Suspicion at once fell on a negro Bassad Charles Short, who waa ar muted aad jalled. An attempt was made to get up emob toeynch Short, but wiser counsels prevailed. A few' nlgUs ago, a Helena gungmlfe. waa accidentally sabt By Frank DeVarsey, a butcher, wife a 22-caliber target rifle. The accident occurred at fee Atlantic beer garden, at about 11180 o'clock. Burgerlne and DeVarsey were shooting at fee target, and th* former, having rang the bell, step ped forward to pall fee string and paint fee disc anew, and was turning to go back to nis former place when fee gun, which DeVarsey was handling, was discharged, and th* bullet struck Burgerine in the left breast, inflicting a painful and perhaps fa tai wound. * Tardy winter apparently approaches.

Many think it cheaper and better to take up large trees from fee woods and transplant them to their grounds or to the roadside than to buy nursery trees. As a rule, such trees die; they fail be cause proper precautions have not been taken. In digging up the tree, all the roots outside of a circle a few feet in diameter are cut off, and fee tree is reset wife its full bead of branches. Whoever has seen trees in fee forest feat wdfo upturned by a tornado must have been struck by the manner sh which the roots ran very near to the surface, and to a great distance. When fee roots of these trees are ent off at two or three feet from fee trunk, few or no fibrous or feeding roots are left; and if the mass of ' tops is left, the expansion of the buds in the spring will not be responded to by ^supply id sap from fee roots, and death must follow. If such trees have fee tops completely removed, leaving only a bare pole, they-will usually grow when transplanted. The tree is little mote than an immense cutting; but there are roots enough left to meet fee demand of the few shoots feat start from the top, and growth above and below ground are well balanced. We have seen maples, elms, and basswood trees, fifteen feet or more high, transplanted in this manner, without a failure. Some trees treated in this manner were planted in onr neighborhood about ten years ago. They have now as fine heads as pile would wish, and show no signs of former rough treatment. Trees in pastures, or on fee edge of fee woods, are better furnished wife roots. These should be prepared for transplanting by digging down to the roots, and cut ting off ail feat extend beyond the desired distance. This will cause fee formation of fibrous roots near fee tree. It will be safer to take two years for the operation, cutting half of fee roots each year. Such trees may bo removed in safety, especially if a good share of the top is removed in trans planting. Shrubs of various kinds re quire the same treatment. Many of our native shrubs are of great beauty, and desirable as ornaments to fee grounds. As ordinarily transplanted, they are rarely satisfactory. If the whole top of these shrnbs, e very branch, be removed, leaving only < suck with as much root as can be secured, success is quite certain. We h*ve removed fee laurel (Kalmia lalifolia) safety in this manner; the scrubs show no signs of their rough treatment. —American Agri culturist. Connts and Reasons. A story of a horse feat counts and reasons*comes from fee New Bruns wick Home News: k knowing horse in Sayer vi He lias for twenty years been a cart horse in a brick yard, and the habit of going through a certain round of duties, day after day, for eight months in the year, has enabled him to do things which seem to indicate the possession of men tal faculties similar to some of those possessed by fee human race. It Is an old saying among farmers feat erows cannot count more than three, but this horse has the ability to count sixty-five. His routine ot labor is to cut sixty-five loads of day from the pit to fee spot where fee clay is mixed or ground, and then to go for a load of com dust; and now, without anything being said or done to indicate fee fact to him, when be has deposited his sixty-fifth load ho turni away from fee clay pit and goes to the dock for a load of feist.

The Ink Plant. There is in New Grenada a plant, Coryaria Thymifolia, which might be dangerous to our ink manufacturers if it could be acclimatized to Europe. It is known under the name ot tnS ink plant. Its juice, called chanebi, can beus ed in writing without any previous preparation. The letters traced wife it are of a reddish color at first, Imt turn to a deep blaek in a few hours. The juice also spoils steel pens less than common ink. The Qualities of the plant seem to have been discovered under the Spanish administration. Some writings, intended for the mother country, were wet t hrough wife sea water on the voy age; while the papers written with com mon ink were - almost illegible, those wife the juice of that plant were quite unspoiled. Orders were given in con sequence that this vegetable ink waa to be used for all public documents.— H. Y. Star.

The terrible tor nadoss and cyclone* wbleh have swept our own country, and the fearful volcanoes and earthquakes which have destroyed so many cities and thousands ot people—th* tidal waves which mysteriously rise and fall on coasts hitherto unvexed by them—■ the tremendous activity which is evident in the sun by the constant revelation of enormous spot* upon its surface—all in dicate unusual energy in the heavenly bodies. These circumstances Vecall Professor Grimmer’s prophecies that from 1881 to 1887, the passage of the five great planets —Mar*, Neptune, Jupiter, Uranus and Baturn—around the sun would produce strange and wonderful phenomena. He saye: " The waters of the -earth will be come more or less poisonous. The air will be foul with noisome odors. Ancient races will disappear from the earth.’’ Ho at tempts to prove his prophecy by the fact that In 1710, when Mars and Sa'urn made their passage around the ran coincident ally, great destruction and mortality visit ed all parte of the globe. Ho also found the same results in previous perihelion pas sages of the planets, and argues that these circumstances always produce epi demics and destructive diseases which will baffle the skill of ihe most eminent physi cians; that the poor will die by thousands, the weak end intemperate tailing that, thoeo whose blood has been impoverished by excess of Work or dissipation next, and only those who are in comparative vigor shall escape to enjoy the era of re newed activity and prosperity which will follow the period of destruction. ' Inasmuch as the entire world seems sub ject to tbs sway of the heavenly bodies no part of the earth, bo thinks, can escape scourging. He even predicts that-Amer ica will lose over ten million* ot people: that farmer* will be atricken with tear and cease to till the soil; that famine will make human mtoery more wretched. That hun dreds will flee to overcrowded cities for I aid in vain. That sudden changes in ocean currents, temperature and surrounding* will entirely transform the face of nature and climate of countries; that the air will bo so foul with malaria and other noxious gases; that those who survive will bo troubled with disorders of the di gestive organs.

This prolongation of life will bo owing to the healthy electric and magnetic Influeaceo that will pervade the atmoephere. It would perhaps seem Wat tbo present red nees ot the sun, and the presence of a belt or veil of cosmic matter, justified, in a measure, the prediction of Proloeeor Grim mer, bot disturbing as his prediction may bo we are told for our com fort that th* strong and pure blood od need have little to fear In these ca lamities, that those pho are delicate or in disposed should adopt means to keep the system well supported and the blood pure and that tbo moot philosophical and effect ive method of accomplishing this is to keep the kidneys and liver in good condi tion. From the testimonials of such mon as Dr. Dio Lewis and Professor IL A. Gunn, M. D., Dsan of the United H ates Medical college. K*w York, and thousands of influential non-prot*s*ional people, tt eeems almost certain that for this purpose there to no preparation known to science equal to Warner’s Bate Cure, bettor known as Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure.
