few APPEALS
FROM CITY TAX
Fewer Than One Hundred
Applications to Have As
SeSSmentS Lowered
SMALLEST in MANY YEARS

While the time for fling appeals
from the city assessment will expire
with Tuesday next fewer appeals have
been filed with the Board OF Assess
ment, Appear and Revision this year
than for many years.
Where there were about four hun
dred appeals last year doubt. from
present indications. that there win be
one hundred this year." said Clerk OF
Council Thomas s. Lewis. with whom
most Of the appeals have been died.
this morning
This is taken as an indication thaf
the assessment figures this year are
satisfactory TO nearly everybody con-
cerned. In past years there seemn
to have been a fear that with an ina
crease in bonded indebtedness OF the
city would come a raise IN assessments
and an increase IN the municipal tax
rate.
No Tax Rate Increase
Notwithstanding the heavy amounts
TO be borrowed under laws passed by
the last Legislature and under ordin-
ances just passed by Council thers is
to be no increase In the city tax rate.
and the deficit OF about $4,000 TO $50
600 annually which Council has con-
fronting Il for many years will be
wiped out by the end of June.
This viii leave the city in better con-
dition financially than IL has been FOR
many years, although the 81 SOC, 900 OF
money being borrowed viii have to be
paid on by the redemption OF bonds
annually. II has been computed that
this can be done without raising the
tax rate
Telephone Company Appeals
The Delaware and Atlantic Tele-
graph and Telephone Company has
appealed from the assessment OF 800
900 on it's buildings at sixth and Ship
ley streets. Andrew c. Gray repre-
sents the company before the Assess
ment Board. IL has been pointed out
that assessment on other properties
between Sixth and Seventh street. on
the west side OF Shipley amounts e
$4,000 This includes two valuable
saloon properties.
The Pusey and Jones Company ha,
had Assessor Eugene M. Sayers tt
make a reclassification of the buildinsl
in ifs assessment schedule. but no ap.
peal from the assessments figures ha,
yet been made by the company.
No appeal has been filed by the
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washing
ton Railroad Company, and It is no,
known whether one will be made IN
the three days remaining. None OF
the other big corporations has filed an
appeal. most Of these coming in being
from owners Of small properties.

LASH KENT MAN
AT GREENBANK
Whipping Post Practically
Abolished for Lower COun-
ties by Prison Reform Law
FRANK AXIOM FIRST VICTIM

Convicted of the charge Of larceny and
sentenced to ten lashes and one years
Imprisonment. Frank Axiom, colored. was
whipped at the County workhouse this
morning.
Axiom is the first of the prisoners con-
victed in the courts of Kent county and
re-sentenced to Greenbank. to feel the
weight of Warden Meserve's lash. That
It was distasteful to him was evinced by
the manner in which he squirmed under
the lash
Hereafter nearly all, if not all. the
down-state prisoners sentenced to receive
corporal punishment will be hogged at
the workhiuse, the whipping post for
lower Delaware practically having been
abolished by the Legislature in a round
about way. To-day for the first time in
a century. there were no public floggings
on the Saturday of court week in Dover.
Strangely enough the change was just
the prisoners.
Now Merely a Relic
The abolition Of the post and plllory in
the lower counties came about in this
way. The prison reform law which went
into effect this month has resulted in all
prisoners sentenced to six months or
longer being sent to the Greenbank PEN
itentiary. Prisoners convicted of petty
larceny or other felones which are pun
ishable by the cat-o'- -nine-tails seldom
are sentenced to less than six months and
this sends them Immediately TO Green
bank and to the whipping post there on
the following whipping day.
The whipping posts in Dover and
GEORGETOWN will, therefore, simply stand
as relics Of the practice begun in Dela-
wares earliest days and sometime ad-
ministered to slaves and others chained to
a column which now runs up through the
present State HOUSE. Only within the last
thirty years has It been unlawful to fog
women who were required to bare their
backs to the waist. just as the men OF
to-day must do.
