CONDITIONS INVESTIGATED.
Mr.. Gilmore Reports on Southwest
Railway Crossings.


Frank B. Gilmore, secretary OF the South
washington Citizens Association. which as
ISOLATION appeared before the Commission
ers several days ago and vigorously pro-
tested against the dangerous crossings In
that section OF the city on account OF the
extensive railroad grade crossing elmina-
ton work In progress, has thoroughly in
vestigated the conditions complained of. at
the suggestion of the Commissioners. with
view OF suggesting what could be done
to make the crossings safe for vehicles and
pedestrians. Mr.. Gilmore reported to Com
missioner Mcfarland this morning. His
letter, which Mr.. mcfarland looks upon as
important, sets forth that he mad looked
into the situation at Sth street crossing and.
after careful observation, finds II cannot
be improved. The gates are guarded by
two men, together with lookout man. day
and night.
Continuing. he said:
I'm my opinion sth street is not as bad as
IA street was during the improvements
there. and only three men protected the
crossing. More trains crossed Az street
then than cross Sth street at present: also.
more people used the .ormers street. to-
gether with the street railway. More
wagons cross Sth street. This is due to the
fact that the other streets are closed.
Il understand that the railroad will re-
move three of the five tracks in a very
short time. thereby making the present con-
ditions less dangerous. 1 would suggest
that the railroad company be requested to
slow up its trains at this crossing. although
a lookout man informed me that he could
bring train to standstill within ten feet
of the crossing. However. / noticed some
trains crossed 1t at a rapid speed.
Referring to the 9th street wall, We want
this wall to be on the building line. accord
ing to the law, and not as 1t is at present.
ten feet over the line. The situation at Az
street plainly shows that .he railroad sees
its mistake by coming over the building
line, and this can be corrected at 9th street
with very little trouble

LAST DAY IN MARCH
TO GIVE IN TAXES.
Returns of Property Owned
Then.
DATE is SAME AS LAST YEAR
State Names March 81 as Time For
Assessment of Property Valu es-AlI
Property Owned on That Date Shall
/. Be Returned for Taxes.

What property did you own on Sat
urdsy last, March 31st? How rich were
you in real estate, city lots or farms;
how much money did you have; how
many cotton bales or other property
and good accounts did you own on that
particular day?
That is what Tax Receiver Rslford
will endeavor to find out.
For March 31st has been fixed as the
date for the levying OF property values
over the state, and all returns for taxes
must be based upon valuations upon
that particular date.
In other words, any person who Cwn-
ed real estate or personal property,
must return it for taxation to the state
and county,no matter whether he came
into possession of 1t just the day before
or dIsposes Of it a day or two herce.
This day was fixed several days ago
in accordance with law by the State
Tax Commission. Tt was not given out
for publication until now, however, as
the dsy fixed is never made public un-
til after 1t has passed.
The reason for secrecy is that many
people who desire to avoid payne MT of
taxes on it would take advantage of
this knowledge to transfer the property
temporarily or send it outside the state
and thus avoid the tax gatherer.
The day fixed for tax returns this
year is the same day that was used for
this purpose last year.

First Appearance of DandruM q FOR@4
runner of Future Badness.
That such is the case has been con-
clusively proven by scientific research.
Prof. Unna, the noted European skin
specialist, declares that dandruff is the
burrowed-up cuticle of the scalp, caused
by parasites destroying the vitality in
the hair bulb. The hair becomes iifeless,
and, in time, falls out. This can be pre-
vented.
Newbro's Herpicide kills this dandruff
germ, and restores the hair to its natural
softness and abundancy.
Herpicide is now used by thousands of
people-all satisfied that it is the most
wonderful hair preparation on the mar
ket to-day.
