Reduced Railroad Assessment in Idaho.

BELLEVUE, Idaho, May 21.-TSpecial tele-
gram to THE HERALD. There has been a
sweeplngi reduction in the assessment OF
the Union Pacific lines in this state com.
pared with the territorial assessment OF
former years. The latter was uniform at
$4,000 per mile, while now the average

How Tin Plates Are Made.

The following particulars of the More
wood process of thinning plates, now in
use in the United States, may be OF in
terest. The plates are rolled in the or
binary manner into black sheets, eight
of these sheets being rolled at one time,
and after being sheared to size are put
in the black pickle bath of sulphuric
acid, where all oxidation is removed.
They are then placed in an annealing
furnace for thirty-six hours, after which
they are passed through the cold rolls,
receiving smoothly polished surface.
They are annealed again and put into
the white pickle. where they are thor
oughly cleansed from any oxidation.
They are then ready for the timing
process.
The mode of putting on the coating Of
tin is very simple. The plates are first
submerged in IA bath of palm oil until all
the water disappears, the oil forming q
flux for the tin, the first coat of which is
received in the tin pot; the plates are
next dipped in the ''wash pot, and when
taken out the tin is spread over the sur
face with a brush by hand. The final
act in the tin coating process consists in
passing the plates through rolls running
in palm oil, whereby the tin is evenly
distributed and smooth surface OBJ
tanned
There are five of these rolls used, three
running on top of two, and the plates
make two passes through them, in the
first place being let down through the
first and second of the upper set, and by
cradle arrangement being returned
through the second and third. This COM
pletes the timing operation proper, and
the polish is obtained by rapid move
ments of the plates through bran and
middlings, respectively, and then polish
ing with sheepskin. The result obtained
is very excellent article Of bright tin

what Vertigo Comes From.

One of the principal causes Of the
more serious forms of vertigo, or dizzi-
ness, is diseased condition of the in
most portion of the ear, the labyrinth.
Vertigo of greater or less severity may
result from whatever disturbs the blood
pressure, either within the labyrinth or
in the middle ear. Similar effects are
also produced by false impressions re-
ceived through the eye, or through the
sense of touch. and by disease Of the
spinal cord.
Since the great nerve which goes to
the stomach is at its cerebral center init
mately associated with the auditory
nerve, disturbance of the stomach may
cause the vertigo, and on the other hand,
a disturbance of the auditory nerve may
occasion nausea or vomiting. Vertigo
is sometimes brought on by paralysis of
single muscle of the eye, or even by
the temporary weakness of an overtaxed
ocular muscle.
The form of vertigo now known as
"Meneres disease" is that form which
the famous Dean Swift suffered, and
under which he often appeared like a
staggering drunkard. The patient on
rising in the morning feels as if the
room were whirling round, or as if he
were floating or sinking. Sometimes he
falls when attacked, but he never loses
consciousness. There are noises-some-
times quite loud-in the ear and more
or less deafness. There may be also
faintness and vomiting. The attacks in
cline to be repeated with increasing fire.
