City Taxpayers Pay Less Than Country
Dwe1iers on Personal Property.
Washington, March 1l.--Locai tax
alton as affecting farms has been the
subject of an investigation by the
etatistician of the department of agri-
culture Henry A. Robinson, and q re-
port just made covers more than 1,le0
farms in Chautauqua, Cattaraugus,
Putnam and Westchester counties, in
New York The object of the investi-
cation was to ascertain what the af-
feet upon farmers taxes would be If
all local direct taxes were levied upon
all land at its unimproved value, ex-
Guiding from the valuation all build
ings, fences and other Improvements,
and also excluding personal property
but including the land Of towns and
cities, as well as that Of farms.
The statistics show that the unim-
proved value OF the land Of these farms
is 80 per cent Of the total value Of all
the real estate Of these farms, includ-
ing improvements, and that the un-
improved value of city lands is 5S per
cent of the whole value Of all city real
estate 1t Is also demonstrated that
city taxpayers pay a much smaller
proportion of taxes on personal prop
erty than property owners do outside
of cities. One 5conclusien is that In its
/ practical operation the tax upon per-
/ sonal property always bears far more
heavily upon farmers than it does
upon the inhabitants of large and
wealthy cities. The report continues:
"Supposing a state to exist in which
the entire value Of the real estate
were equally divided between cities
and farms, then under the system of
taxing real estate at its full value, If
taxes for 81 100000 were levied on real
estate, the cities would pay $4,000
and the farms $5OOOOO. But if the as
sessed value of real estate were In each
case reduced to the actual value of the
land, excluding buildings, improve
ments and cultivation, the city would
pay $4,000 and the farms would pay
S463, 900, making a reduction Of 1874
per cent in the burdens Of the farm.u

1t may be several days however, be-
fore the nomination is sent to the SEN
ate, as the president is anxious to send
in at the same time the assistant Sec
retary Of state and the assistant sec
retaries of the treasury.
1t is about decided that Bellamy
Storer, Of Cincinnati win go abroad
and not be assistant secretary of state,
owing to the opposition Of Senator
Foraker, Although Don Cameron has
been mentioned most prominently
during the last few days for ambassa-
dor to Germany, it is not likely that he
will be nominated, because the ex-
senator from Pennsylvania finds that
his business connections in this coun-
try just at present will not allow him
to so abroad, and the most mentioned
name for the place is Ex-Governor
Merriam of Minnesota.
So the ambassadors viii probably
be John Hay of Ohio, Great Britain;

TRAINS FATAL PLUNGE
Railroad Wreck Caused by the
Floods in Indiana,
SEVEN LIVES WE'RE SACRIFICED.
A Train on the Evansville and Terre Hauts
Railroad Thrown Down an Embank-
ment, owing to a washout, and the Cars
Float Away.

ment, owing to wsshOut, and the Cars
Float Away.
Princeton, Ind. March 1t.-One Of the
worst railroda wrecks that has occur
red in this vicinity for many years
happened yesterday morning at
O'Clock to the Chicago and Nashville
limited southbound over the Evans
VILE and Terre Haute railroad, one
mile north of Ha7elton. The train was
made UP Of engine "a, in charge of En-
gineer John X. MoCutchan and Fire
man Joseph Bowman, combination
baggage and mail car, smoker ladies
coach and one sleeper. The engine
went over the embanbment, falling
distance of IL feet into six feet OF
water. The smoker was telescoped by
the baggage car, and the ladies' coach
and sleeper remained on the track
Engineer McCutohan says he was rum
ming 25 miles an hour, and when he
approached the washout saw nothing
but a very small hole. The engine
went over It and went down the em-
bankment.
Where the wreck occurred five trains
had passed over the same place within
the hour and the roadbed had been
pronounced in good condition by the
different traip crews. A track walker
had also passed over the same route
shortly before the train went down.
The track at the point of the washout
was still intact, and water filled the
space formerly occupied by the em-
bankment.
Brakeman Haueisen was pinioned In
the smoker by a broken timber Of the
car His head remained above water,
and for five hours men worked trying
to rescue him. His sufferngs were ter
rible, and he begged that some one
take an ak and cut off his leg, Finally
the water undermined the car and res
leased Haueisen, and as he was drag
ged from his position the car tloated
away.
All the passengers in the smoker are
supposed to have been killed. Four
persons besides Conductor Seers were
seen in the smoker as it broke loose,
rolled down the embankment and
fioated off with the current. Harry
| ]. Hill, the baggegeman, was the ouly
member of the train crew who escaped
unhurt.
About o'clock a large section Of the
| levee broke, sending the baggage cars
and the smoker down into the water
/
| At 10 o'clock the ladies' coach which
had been lying crosswise on the tracks
floated off toward the river.
1t looks now as though several days
will elapse before trains can be run
over the washout as there is no way
of getting around it. The cars and en-
gine cannot be taken out before the
water goes down. Then the bodies OF
| the unknown dead may be found, but
the probability is that they will have
been washed away.
The killed as far as known are;
George A. Sears Of Terre Haute, con-
ductor; Joseph Bowman of Evansville
fireman, buried under locomotive
Herbert Allen, doorkeeper of the leg
islature, of Evansville; four unknown
passengers.
The injured are: Engineer John Nc
Cutcheon of Evansville, scalded abou
the legs and arms and bruised; JohT
B. Hauesen, brakeman, of Evansville
foot badly crushed.

A PLAGUE OF THE NIGHT.
ITCHING PILES AND OTHER RECTAL
TROUBLES EASILY CURED BY A
NEW AND SAFE METHOD.
A Remarkable Number Of Cures Made by
the Pyramid Pile Cure.

About one person in every four suffers
from some form of rectal disease The most
common aud annoying is itching piles, indi-
Gated by warmth, slight moisture aud in
tense, uncomfortable itching in the parts af-
fected.
The usual treatment has been some simple
ointment or salve which sometimes give
temporary relief but nothing like a perma-
nent cure can be expected from such super
fetal treatment.
The only permanent cure for itching piles
yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile Cure, not
only for itching piles but for every other
form of piles, blind, bleeding or protruding.
The first application gives instant relief and
the continued use for a short time causes a
permanent removal of the tumors or the
small parasites which cause the intense itch
ing and discomfort of itching piles.
Many physicians for a long time supposed
that the remarkable relief afforded by the
Pyramid Pile Cure was because it was sup
posed to contain cocaine, opium or similar
drugs, but such is not the case A recent
careful analysis Of the remedy showed it to
be absolutely free from any cocaine, opium,
or in fact any poisonous, injurious drugs
whatever
For this reason the Pyramid Pile Cure is
probably the only pile cure extensively rec.
commended by physicians, because it is SC
safe, so prompt in the relief afforded and sc
far as known the only positive cure for piles
except surgical operation.
In one year the Pyramid Pile Cure has
become the best known, the safest and the
most extensively sold Of any pile cure before
the public.
Nearly all druggists now sell it at so cts
and 81 per package,
Address the Pyramid Co., Albion, Mich.
for book on cause and cure of piles and also
hundreds of testimonials from all parts o.
the United States.
