As result Of our investigation we have es-
at SO, 0OC 900. Good authorities have put the
estimate up to $4,000 900.
We find that the total of exempted prop
taxable valuation Of the city by the last
triennial assessment was about $270, ,000, 000
Adding exempted property, gives the aggre-
gate valuation Of the city over $500. 100000.
Many Moro Claims for Exemptions.
There are before us claims for exemptions
from numerous corporations, among them
the Allegheny Light Company, Pittsburg
Gas Company, Consolidated Gas Company,
East End Gas Company, the West End Gas
pany. These and other like corporations
claim exemption for their property because
the State collects tax on their capital stock.
Company, for instance, claims that all OF the
property used in the pumping and distribu-
tion OF water Is exempt from local tax. The
same claim is being made by the other COM
panies.
The latest claim for exemption, appar-
emily sustained by State and Supreme Court
decisions, is that of the Shady Side Academy.
claim and the city attorneys have been
instructed to resist it in the courts if
necessary. A tuition fee of at least 81 a day
is charged for each pupil at that school and
the institution does not come under what
we consider properly exempted property.
We are determined to get a court decision
on this point before allowing it.
The aggregate OF exempted property may
astonish taxpayers, but it will be found less
than in other large cities Of the country.
The city, county, public school, United
States Government, church and cemetery
aggregate $50, 753, 556 in cash value,
leaving a balance covering eleemosynary in
stitutions of 81, 23a, go This is less sum for

hold was in bed she pushed on with her
sef-imposed tasks until the night was far
gone, and she very spent and weary. Then
she stirred up the smouldering kitchen fire,
made herself cup of tea, and, carrying it
up to her room, she sat slipping it and
glanclng over an old bound number OF the
Leisure Hour" Her seat was behind the
little dimity window curtains, where she
could see without being seen.
The morning had broken. and brisk
wind had sprung up with the dawn. The
sky was of the lightest, palest blue, with
scud of flying white clouds shredded out
over the face of it., dividing, ooalescing,
overtaking one another; but sweeping ever
from the pink of the East to the still
shadowy West. The high, eager voice of
the wind whistled and sang outside, rising
from moan to shrek, and then sinking
again to dull mutter and grumble. Dolly

she sat down again in an instant her doubts
were resolved, and she had seen that for
which she had waited.
Her window faced the inner yard, and
was some eight feet from the ground. A
man standing beneath it could not be seen
from above. But she saw enough to tell
her all that she wished to know. Silently,
suddenly, a hand had appeared from below,
had laid sprig of flower upon her ledge,
