Important Meeting of the Board
Yesterday Tax-Payers ON the
War-path-Rntlroad Assessments
Unchanged.
Under the law the Commissioners yes
terday held their final meeting as a Board
Of Equalization.
A number Of taxpayers, headed by Mr..
William Arlington, Mr.. Mark johnson,
Mr.. John s. Capron, and others,
assembled and demanded that the valu-
alton Of the railroad property in the
county be increased to double the assessed
value or theirs reduced. They insisted on
a fair deal, urging that the tax paid by the
railroads bears no just proportion to that
borne by other classes and descriptions OF
property. The demonstration on the part
Of these taxpayers seemed to be more in
the nature of a protest than anything else
at the action Of Commissioners Page and
Sadler, in failing to raise the valuation Of
the Central Pacific to So, 900 per mile and
the E. 4 P. to IS, 900 per mile. There was
q wordy warfare between the petitioners
and the Board, but nothing resulted from
it. The point was made by the Board that
the time had passed for changing ASSESS
ments. The Central Pacific therefore
stands at $4,000 and the E. & P. ct So. 900
per mile. This question settled, the Com
missioners adjourned as q Board of Equal
ization line die. Meeting Immediately as
q Board Of Commissioners, they appointed
John Reynolds Registry Agent Of Beowawe
precinct, vice J. g. Owens, resigned. John
Reynolds, Inspector Of Election for Beo-
wave precinct, vice J. c. Owens, resigned.
N. NJ. Pratt, Inspector Of Election for
Mineral Hill precinct, vice J. L. Thomp-
son, resigned. r.. Bergman and E. Alt
wegg, Inspectors OF Election for Wander.
bilt precinct, vice C. C. Fall and j. Nc
Govern, resigned. CT. Broy, Inspector
Of Election for Eureka precinct No. Q, vice
j. Vanderlieth, resigned.

Its business Houses and General
Outlook.

Outlook.
Our new contemporary. the Ruby Hill
Mining Report, has the following regard
ing the town Of Ruby Hill: about three
miles from Eureka, and a little south Of
west, is the fiourishing Town above named.
1t has very rapidly increased in population
during the past six months, and parties
who visited II then and not until the pres
ent, would not know the place. The popu-
lation is ~variously estimated at from 1900
to 1900. It boasts Of a handsome hall,
owned by the Miners Union; a fine
church, built and occupied by the Meth
odists, six large grocery and dry goods
houses, seven saloons, one butcher shop,
one drug store. fourteen restaurants, three
boot and shoe shops, o postofiice, and
shortly there will be an express Office; be-
sides, three stages are running between
this place and Eureka, probably every half
hour in the day, loaded dow with pas
sengers. The town is surrounded by any
number Of very rich mines, the ores
from which are reduced in the furnaces at
Eureka. The ore is carried Town on ore
cars specially built for the business. Mar
row gauge tracks have been built to the
Eureka Con-, X X, Richmond and Jackson
mines, M the ore is so placed that by
raising an iron gate, almost at one turn,
the car is filed. The main track which
leads up from Eureka rises in n place to
a grade Of 800 feet to the mile. There are
many important enterprises being inaugu-
rated, of which we shall speak hereafter.
The town is very pleasantly situated in a
gulch and extends over perhaps a mile Of
ground. The Ruby Hill Water Works,
which supply this town with water, are
situated here, which Of course is q great
convenience. There is a w~ell-conducted
public school which has an attendance of
nearly ninety scholars. A Eureka firm are
excavating a foundation for a large livery
stable, which they will fill with fine stock.
The prospects Of the camp are by far much
brighter than ever before in its history,
and all seem content, firmly believing that
prosperous times are dawning. The citi-
zens are a live, enterprising community,
as evidenced by the handsome advertise
ment Of all the principal business firms"

has commanded him to let the ladies put
on their own shoes when they are old and
consequently easy Of adjustment. The
other day a young woman came in to have
her shoe mended while she waited, and
when it was finished asked the shoemaker
to put it ON for her. He was complying
with the request when his wife peeped in.

q clothes-line, doubled it to convenient
length, and coming back belabored her
spouse in tho presence Of the innocent
customer.

A Confused CONSIDER.

A Clergyman said that he once visit
ed a lady of his parish who had just
lost her husband, in order to offer con-
ISOLATION, and upon her earne st inquiries
as to the reunion of families in heaven,
he stronglyasserted his belief in that fact
and when she asked him with anxiety
whether any time must elapse before
friends would be able to find each
other in the next world, he emphatical-
ly said, "Nol they will be united at
once" He was thinking of the happi-
ness Of being able to offer the relief of
such a faith, when she broke in upon
his meditation by exclaiming sadly:
well, his first wife has got him, then,
by this time!" He reached for his
hat.

INSURANCE companies make a slip
ulation in all policies issued by them
that suicide invalidates the obligation
to pay. In several cases the courts
have sustained the companies, but now
the United States circuit court of
TrentcnN. j., has just given judg-
ment against the Mutual life insurance
company of San Francisco, for the full
amount claimed by q woman whose
husband insured himself and then COM
mitted dissolution. This is rather
rough on insurance companies and
greatly increases their risks. 1t would
seem in principle, to be against public
policy to allow claims of this character,
for it puts a very attractive premium
on suicide.
