Railroad Commission Completes
Assessments for 1875.
Total Assessment Of Railroads, Tele
phone and Telegraph Com.
panies Nearly Doubled.
Cumberland Telephone Company Raised
From S1SI,02 to 81 1871 and
Railroad Properties From
S41 1929, $40 to ST.
3GG,S63.

NASHVILLE, Sept. 2O.-The Ten
nessee Railroad Commission, COM
posed of Messrs. +. l.. Bullock, F.
NJ. Thompson and n. H. White, yes
terday completed the duty imposed
by the Legislature of assessing the
railroad, telegraph and telephone
properties of the State.
Upon railroad properties last year
the total assessed valuation was
Sal 1922 $40. The total assessed valua-
tion made by the commission and
given out yesterday is by rough
calculation $74, 366,S63.
An increase of $32, 544, 1858!
That is upon railroad properties
alone.
Upon telegraph and telephone
properties the total assessment last
year was 1885, According to the
assessment made public yesterday
the total upon these properties is
50, 1871 ,554.
An increase of 81 1926, 1877.
Just treble what the total was last
year.
By rough estimate this increase in
the assessments will increase the
revenue of the State and counties
nearly 100000.
The increase to the State alone
will be something like $4,000.
The largest increase upon any
railroad line is upon the main stem
of the Louisville & Nashville. The
assessment for this last year was
$31 900 a mile. 1t was raised tt
$65, 900 mile This line is bonded
for $56 900 mile, but upon basis OF
six per cent its earning capacity Ii
$4,000 mile.
The gross earnings of the Louis
vile q Nashville last year amounted
to 1000 mile. The net earning:
amounted to $4,000 mile.
The assessment upon the mair
line of the Nashville, Chattanooga
& st. Louis was increased from
$4,000 a mile to $4,000. The ne
earnings upon this line last yea
amounted to $3,ll2.
But the biggest relative increase
was on the Cumberland TelephOn,
Company. This property wa
assessed last year at $40 Il mile
making total of $lSl,92O. 1t Wa
raised to $500 IA mile, making a tOta
of 81, 1S7, 100.
An increase of cool million anC

high.

Bread UpOn the Waters.

Fifteen years ago Carrie Burch
was a servant girl in a California
household where VIM. +. Hastings
was also employed. The girl be-
came i'll and had to leave, but had no
money. Hastings loaned her $500
and she went away. The years
rolled by without the 5000 being re-
turned, and Hastings had forgotten
the occurrence, when he received a
letter from a barrister in London
stating that an estate of $4,000 had
been left him by Mrs. Hall, former
ly Miss Carrie Burch of California.
Hastings could hardly believe what
he read, but he has the money now,
and for his generosity to strange
girl years ago he has become indie
pendently rich. When the girl left
California she went to Australia as
a nurse and there married a retired
English merchant, who died some
years afterward, and the widow then
returned to London and lived there
until her death.

GarwOOd's Sarsaparilla-for the blood
guaranteed to cure. A. B. RAINS
Mr.. RrYAn'S Views.

Here is the way Mr.. Bryan puts it.
In an interview given out by him
last week he said:
"Those who have suggested the
burning of property or the destruc
ton of life as means of settling
labor disputes, do not understand
the genius of our institutions. The
American people are a law-abiding
people. When laws are bad they
will change the laws. Lincoln was
right when he said that no one could
better be intrusted with the enforce
ment of the laws than those who toll.
The toilers will respect the rights of
property, and the people, as a whole,
will insist that the corporations
shall also respect the right to life
and property"

Patient Blind For Twelve Years Re-
covers His Sight
New YORK, Sept. lS.-William H,
Meadowcraft, of the General Flee
tric Company, has received a letter
from DR.. Francisco De Austidillo, of
Havana, describing a case of blind
ness cured by the N-rays. Aus
tidillo i'm his letter says that the
patient became suddenly and COM
pletely blind twelve years ago and
that prominent European occulists
had declared his case incurable.
The letter continues:
Il invited him to my house to try
if the X-rays could reach his optic
nerve, in which case, If the nerves
were good he could see objects with

request. On Aug. IL he came in the
evening and l placed him before the
focus tube. gave him the
Horoscope and once the current
was in activity he gave scream,
because he had seen the light. Then
| placed before the screen my hand,
and he saw it clearly, as also ring
which had on finger. placed "a
pair of scissors in the pages Of a
book of $50 pages and he saw them
perfectly. ...
"Then I took away the horoscope
and directed the rays of the tubes

across the rays, a straw hat, a rosary

peated the experiment on the fol-
lowing day before Drs. CisnerOs and
Belgado. The young man told me
that in the morning he had seen the
light of day, but that after he had
seen it short time it was sub
merged in darkness"
The experiments were continued
until finally the man could see
clearly in the light but could not see
in the shade. He was able to dis
tinguish colors and eventually able
to read. DR.. AustidillO concludes
his letter as follows:

Most gossip is simply idle and
thoughtless. Many folks talk about
their neighbOrs because their minds
are so empty that they have nothing
else to talk about. They do not
mean to be cruel or unkind; but
they have got into the habit of al
lowing their tongues to wag, and
they do not know how to break it
off. Some gossipers, however, are
consciously malignant. Their def
mite purpose is to do harm. Moth
ing pleases them so much as to blast
a reputation. Neither man nor wo-
man is exempt from their veno-
nous assaults. On the slightest
pretext, and often without any pre-
text, they set afloat scandalous ru-
mors concerning people that are as
innocent as angels. For such evil
doors Satan ought fairly to reserve
the hottest corner IN the lake of fire.
