A SUGGESTED TAX LAW. i President, W. E. Young, of the County . Board of Taxation, lias proposed to the Board of Freeholders that counsel be ( employed to draft a law for prevent* j tion to the next session of the Legislature, changing the time and mode of tax I assessments as follows: { First, by fixing a date a oouple of months or so earlier than now prescribed for assessment of properties. Seoond. Providing for an appeal against the values before the Count: ' Board and an appeal to the itate Board, | before rate is established or County or State 6chool Tax is apportioned. After ' these appeals art passed the rate 1 1 | be made and the county and State School Tax apportioned. The assessors 1 then to oomplete the work of assess- { meat, and turn over books to collector. No appeals nor changes to be permitted excepting as above specified. This is a common sense suggestion which would save every municipality in the State from various tax troubles and from deficits due to reductions made after an assessment and apportionment is made. The method now employed places the cart before the horse and is neither business like nor logical. If the matteri were and* clear to isolators ihsy would no doubt favor the change.

The Youth's Companion makes ths following statement with reference to " the relative effoctivenass of the schooU b ortoday end those of a previous gsner- ? ation. Of is often urged that modern educational methods are less effective than the methods of the old days when there * were fewer fads and frills. A practical * demonstrative of the unsoundness of contention was recently made bya Connecticut teacher. He secured the ex- * mi nation-papers written by seventy pupils of the local school in 1856, and ? put the same set of question Before " corresponding grade of the present day. Where the pupils of 1856 obtained 1 average mark of seventy five, the * pupils of 1010 won an average of eightyeight. To show' that this result was not * accident, examination-papers of 1862 ® secured and the questions put be- ' fere another grade. An average of n was obtained, as compared with average of sixty by the children of 1868. The subjects covered were arith- £ metic, grammar, history and geography. world is making progress in educa- p tion, aa in other things, and the wise ? boy will not embarrass his father by u many questions regarding school- ^ days. ^ ' d WHY MEM DREAD THE LAW. £ "It is coming to pass," says Mayor J Gaynor, speaking of the lew's delay, "that business mm prefer to let criminal offenses against them go rather than ^ prosecute them." If conditions are such ( that men hesitate to go to court in defense of their own rights, how much ^ more oppresive they must be in the cases of jurors and witnesses who without re- f course are compelled to be in attend- ^ ancel One of the essentials of justice is ( promptness. Justice may be delayed , solong as to lose its value, as in the . case of a brakemun at Long Island City ] who after five trials covering as many ( finally secured a verdict. A wrong us endured may at last be corrected literally and yet never be fully redressed. ( l or tins reason some of our early constitution maker devoted tbeir preambles to tautological definitions of justice ' which sound quaintly enough at this | day. By their very repetitions they em- , phasied their determination that justice . should be speedy, certain and cheap, , just as so the of the old English writers habitually used the double negative when they wished to give great strength to a denial. For the protection of -the weak aa well as the strong every litigant may employ the power of the courts to compel the attendance of witnesses. Thia is a necessary provision but one which is greatly abused. Witnesses may be practically in custody for days, perhaps through malice, and have no reparation, if the administration of thejaw could be expedited and regulated a great burden would be lifted from the shoulders of thousands and the public expense would be materially reduced . With the President of the United States and the Mayor of New York, both lawyers and experienced Judges, giving their attention to this reform, something tangible should come of the movement. — New York World.

Bird, knve assisted man in more ways | than 0M in tfce art «f flight, it was by studying the flight of bird, that some of the meat successful aeroplanes have been detigned, and now the news comet that the Germans, who are lenders in £ the art (f aerial navigation, have taken a hint from migratory birds and been at work charting the upper air. Cur- T rents of air all over Germany haxe been charted.'. During October, 1900, bulletins }i were sent and received a distance of over three hundred miles by wireless tele- g graphy on the Zeppelin m, while it was j in flight* says the "Century Magazine. Today, from a system of wireless stations, hoorly advices of the winds are g available by all imperial air ships. Captains even now exchange the 'is test $ wind." On this information they are g, enabled to go with the wind in one- 2 fourth the time they would use in running against ths current. g For yean evidence has been accumulating to show that in the upper air p there are great, steadily blowing planetary winds, need regularly by birds of passage. These currents explain the g great flights of some birds. A natural- p ist, for example, killed an English heron in Colorado. Many other passage p birds appear to fly very high, which 3 seems to explain why they are so selseen. £ Science has found that mechanical flight is perfectly feasible at vast j, where the machine, finding thir- £ ty per cent, less support, yet gains thir- j tv per eent. in speed, with the expendi- g ture of little more energy than at sea level. For the same reason birds fly ( four miles a minute two miles high over j Helgoland, in their spring travel from the Continent of Europe to England. "Soundings,- as they are called, with j have shown that there are steady trade winds blowing at certain j times of the year from Germany through the Maderias ana the Azores, by the West Indies, and thence to Florida. It ; is planned, by those who are projecting transatlantic airship lines, to make use , I of these currents. It is believed that aerial navigators j will make use of the permanent upper 1 currents blowing from America to Europe. These currents seem to have a speed of forty-eight miles an hour in . summer and twice that in winter. Air 1 ships for traffic could hardly fly against this current. For economic reasons, , 1 therefore, the trade winds and the up1 planetorv drift are the natural 1 navigable wind rivers between Europe 1 and America. ' Science has not found north and aoutli winds as regular as these planetary 1 streams. Still, there are air lanes across the great eastward drift that do not interrupt its flow. Air-ships, then, may 1 fly between northern and southern con1 tinents, exactly as the little plover flies ! from Nova Scotia, over the midatlantic 1 to South America, without a known ■ stop. 1 Telescopes have revealed birds of pas- ' sage crossing the sun or moon. Calculations made from measurements taken by instruments prove that they are traveling at altitudes of one, two or three ' miles, w-ith a rapidity of two or three ' miles a minute. > The secret of their mastery of the air • currents, as round by a German man 1 of science, give 0 nautical key for deal ing with all winds. It is now known that migrating birds never fly except on the swiftest winds toward their destination. — Youth's Companion.
