report from Bordeaux is the statement
that the coming vintage will be entirely free
from any suspicion of mildew. From
Rheims it is reported that the cham
payne vintage will be remarkably short,
in consequence of the spring frosts;
but, on the other hand, there are indica-
tions of high quality. A somewhat simi-
lar report is made as to Burgundy. A
Cognac correspondent says that excellent
wine will be produced in the Charentes if
the weather should remain favorable
throughout the gathering, but that the
yield must be small, the most esnguine
estimating it at about half of last years.
With regard to sherry, reports from Jerez
declare that the quantity will be short,
owing to the hot weather of August, and
rise in the price of the cheaper wines is
foretold. In Portugal the vintage will be
earlier than it has been for some years,
and the grapes are promising in appear
ance. On the Rhine and Moselle the yield
is not expected to exceed third of the
average, even If 1t should reach that re-
duced quantity, but the quality is expected
to be good.
1t is evidently going to pay to be pro-
hibitionist this year.

WINE.

Those who drink wine will not be pleased
to know that this will not bs good wine
year, at least so far as quantity is con-
cerned. Reports which have been col
lected show that extremes of heat and cold
rather than diseases of the vine have
caused diminution of the crop. 1t was
expected that the wine made in the claret
districts would be good, if not abundant;
but, owing to the grapes having been
badly scorched, it now appears that
in many cases only little wine will be
produced, and that of Indifferent quality

And one clear call for me.
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When put out to sea,
But such tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless
deep
Turns again home.

And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness Of farewell

For tho from out our bourne Of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,

1t Formally Or9anizes-whaf Chairman
| Griffin Says of the Assessment.
| Promptly at 10 o'clock this morning the
board Of revision, equalization and appeals me,
in Capt. Rosseirs private Office and organized.
Mr.. E. W. W. Griffin was selected as chairman
and VIM. B. Gurley, secretary No business
was transacted today, but bright and early to-
morrow morning the work Of revision will be-
gin.
1t Is the intention Of the board to first care
| fully scan the old assessment, and, after ia
miliarizing itself with it, to 60 over the new
| assessment. Then 1t will arrive at some def
mite basis Of assessing and make the changes
| accordingly.
1t is unquestionably the object Of the board
TO materially reduce the assessment, but as yet
| the different percentages Of reduction for the
several sections have not been agreed upon.
On the first day Of the new year the board
Will remove its quarters to the room occupied
by the board Of assistant assessors, and there
receive appeals, either orally or in writing. The
office hours viii be between 10 o'clock a. m. and
O'Clock p. m.
The law provides that their term Of office shall
be not less than ninety days nor more than six
months. After the board has completed Its
labors the returns will be made to the Commas
sioners and the new assessment as revised by 1t
will stand.
The board Of assistant assessors made its re-
wa 10 ~ eouhty PEopoIty tOuHy, anu lIOu INV
until the lat Of January will sit az a board Of
equalization and pass upon appeals. The books
will be open for the general public from tomor-
row. Those who desire to appeal from the new
assessment on county property should have
their appeals in before the 18th Of this month
or they will not receive the consideration they
demand The board has but one month to
make its final returns. Appeals, however will
be received up to the LIST Of January, but the
board does not promise to consider them.
As soon as this board has made it's final re-
turns 1t will be dissolved and go out Of exist
ence. The new board recently appointed by
the President will then step in. and the revision
OF the whole assessment will continue.
Chairman Griffin, In conversation with a re-
porter Of THE STAR today, said: 1.-The new
board has not had time to agree upon any def
mite plan Of reduction in the new assessment.
l have no doubt, however, but that our final
returns will be much less than the original as
sessment. OF course l cannot speak for the
other members of the board, but, as
far as l am concerned, and without any
desire to cast aspersions upon the honesty
OF purpose Of the old board, have no hest
fancy in saying that the new assessment is not
only too high, but oppressive. 1t ia the purpose
OF the board to deal fairly as between the Dis
trict and the citizens, and I trust, when the
final returns are all in and approved, the good
people of Washington will have no cause to
complain"
