The horse, wild with excitement, went right
on down the ring, and rising at the barrier of

literally sailed over the bars and five rows of

nobody. The distance was measured and

THE RAILROAD AND THE TAX COL
LECTOR

Some weeks ago the County Commissioners
of Storey county, sitting as Board of Equal
ization, held daily sessions in order to investl-
gate the claims of property holders who con-
sidered that their worldly possessions had
been overestimated by the Assessor All
sorts of people came to the front and begged
for a consideration at the hands of the Board.
Old women with unproduetive lodging
houses. men who had been less fortunate
in business than their neighbors, and scores
of people, presumably in comfortable circuul-
stances, lwere ON hand with elongated faces,
pleading abiect poverty and wanting reduc
tons The Board was composed of solid
business men who were we'll posted in the
valuation of property, and sworn to do their
duty. In almost every instance the ratings
of the Assessor were sustained. Somewhat
to the surprise of the committee, Fl. NJ Yer
iagton appeared and asked for reduction of
several thousands of dollars on behalf of the
Virginia and Truckee railroad, corporation
clearing an admitted net profit Of nearly three
quarters Of million year Such an appll-
alton came quite Unexpectedly to the Board,
rem the fact that the Assessors estimate was
based upon a sworn statement of the value
and cost OF the road made by Ar. Yerington
himself before legislative comrnittee last
Winter. Although several days were spent
in arguing the case, the solicited reduction
was refused The same rule which held
.-ol -. .of,.inr NJ. Prown rod 1ctiOn of
81 80 on badly -paying restaurant, applied
equally as well in the case of an opalent
railroad company doing business In county
whose courts it depended upon for legal pro
lection, and which protection had on more
than one occasion been extended. In this
instance no one can say that wealth has
brought any pride to the heart of ID. o.
Mills, the chief owner of the property. On
Thursday last, the Secretary of the road
male . tender of s., 997 IL to hquidate
tax debt of So, 1873 80 it owed the county,
refusing to pay tax amounting to IS, 1886 rs
on it's main and side tracks. The county de-
clined to accept the money and will take
legal measures to collect the amount in full.
The same corporation has pursued
similar line of action in this county and in
Lyon. 1t is not an unusual sight to see men
who are property poor" pe:itioning for
lenience at the hands of Board of Equaliza-
ton; but such q course is inexcusable in the
sleek monopolst who rolls in the luxuries
afforded by royal revenue said to be second
to none in the United States. The same
law, however, which compels the poor man
to settle his taxes, under penalty Of a forced
sale of his property, will wrench the just dues
from the railroad by the same effective
process.

A NEW CEREAL.
process.

correspondent of the Denver Tribune
describes at length the valuable qualities of a
plant which he has discovered growing in the
region of the Rocky Mountain. 1t is a sort
of rice or corn, native of Africa and is found
to grow to perfection on the arid plains of
this continent. A Mr. HOLSTER of Chicago
has made an extensive experiment in the
growing of it the past year and predicts
wonderful results from its cultivation
Neither drought, heat rain effects their
hardy native of Africa it grows right
through even the hot blasts from the burning
plains which scorches everything else green
in sight. 1t requires about six months to
ripen and yields abont $50 pounds to the
acre. The stalk for some three feet from
the ground is about as large as a mans coat
sleeve, and is perfect wood. This in all the
treeless region east of the mountain is most
important fact, as an acre or two will furnish
fuel for family for an entire year. From
the top of the woody substance issues a stalk
on the top of which tuft something like
that of sorghum issues this soon drops
grain. The kernel is about the size of a
grain of wheat, perhaps a little smaller, and
more nearly round. Each one is enclosed in
a shuck, or independent capsule The grain
can be ground into an excellent -four, from
which bread and other food can be made, il
can be boiled and eaten as rice and cracked
wheat, and i'll fact can be used for any pur-
pose for which our ordinary cereals are en-
ployea. If this informttion should prove to |
be reliable the discovery is of almost incalcu- |
able value as it will enable ranchers to |
utilize q vast tract of land which is now
useless from being beyond the reach of
any sort of irrigation, and will furnish
new article of food for both men and beast
The more plentiful breadstuffs become, the
more prospe rous will be the nation and the
happier its people.

THE human ear Is sometimes attacked by a
disease which shows itself in the form of run
ming sore; in many cases the tympanum is de
stroyed and hearing lost before the nature of
the malady is discovered. The disease is due
to the growth of Il microscopic plant or fungus
of the AsperyilIus family. 1t especially thrives
when from any cause, the secretion of wax in
the ear is stopped or hindered. The micro
scope is a valuable assistant in the discovery
of this fungus. Consumption, the most disas
trous malady that afficts humanity, is now
said to be caused by yeast plant that flour
lshes in the blood. The presence of this fun
gus is readily shown by the microscope, and
now forms the subject Of careful study among
physicians. We believe that Dr. James H.
Salisbury, of Cleaveland, Ohio, was among
the earliest to detect and describe this curious
yeast plant of the blood Scientific American.
