Tax Assessment Middle.

Denver. Jan. 3.-The state board OF
equalization began to meet yesterday
afternoon. The board will hold two
IN. The proceedings of the board will
be the same as though no revenue law
had been enacted, and as though ii
We're early in the fall when the board
usually meets, and not midwinter. All
the corporations will be given an OPP
portunity to appear.
While the board is assessing in Den
yer, under the mandate of Judge Dix
on, compelling the board to meet and
assess under the provisions of the old
law, county assessors throughout the
state are assessing corporate property
under the provisions of section 240 of
the new revenue law. When the state
board of equalization and the county
assessors complete their work there
will be three sets of assessments made
out by the state board of assessors
that made by the state board of equali-
Zation, and that of the county assess
ors.
From which one the tax levy will be
made remains to be seen.
How many of the county assessors
are operating under section 24O of the
revenue law Governor Orman and the
other members of the state board of
equalization do not know. 1t is known
that some of them, including Assessor
Alexander of Arapahoe county, have
made their assessment. Others have
not completed it, while others have not
begun upon it.

Consumption Not Contagious.

New York, Jan. 3.-Dr. S. A. Knopf,
well-knOwn authority on tuberculo-
sis, in addressing the Academy of
Medicine yesterday, said that, contrary
TO the opinion of the United States
government, tuberculosis was not con-
tagious. A man with well-detined
tuberculosis could do his work daily
if the proper precautions We're taken
and the sputum was removed and de-
stroyed. The government, he said, had
stamped all those afflicted with the
disease with Il stigma which was not
proper.
DIR. Knopf declared that the expul-
sion of immigrants because of alleged
tuberculous symptoms and tendencies
was wrong. In the majority of cases
they We're well provided, not only for
caring for themselves, but for their
families as we'll
He recommended that n committee
be appointed by the government of
which the President should be an hon
orary member, to study the disease
and to find, If possible, not only a spe-
cific, but the best and most approved
treatment. The medical profession, he
said, would welcome such n commits
sion.

LAWRENCE HEX is SENTENCED
TO DEATH UNDER THE NEW LAW

renee Hex" Looking the condemned
prisoner straight in the eye, Judge Dix
on continued:
You have sinned beyond the point
of human forgiveness. l do not say
these things to be harsh, but to show
you that from man you have no hope.
But the law will not be as cruel to you
as you were to William White and Liz
zie Alley. / honestly exhort you to
seek forgiveness from the God you
have 80 grievously offended, and may
he have mercy on you"
Hex was taken directly from the
court room to the penitentiary at Can
on City by Sheriff Beaman. The muir
derer continued his calm demeanor,
and laughed and joked as though there
was nothing of serious nature to be
considered. He was manacled heavily
during his journey to the pen, and up
on his arrival there was placed at once
in the cell set apart for condemned per-
sons.
Hex is the first man condemned to
pay the death penalty under the re-en-
acted capital punishment law.
