MORE WORK
BY THE s. P.
Will Undertake Big Improvement
In Track Near Battle Mountain
Western Pacific Contraction.

RENO, Dec. 10.-The restless head
and hand of Hartman never cease
conceiving and executing betterments
for his lines. Ills latest project is
one for the further shortening of the
Central Pacific at every possible point
but particularly near Battle Mountain
where work in this direction is to be-
gin shortly.
This information was given out in
an interview with r.. G. Blossom, the
well known business man and stock
raiser of northern Lander county,
last night.
The proposed cut off will begin at
a point five miles west of Battle
Mountain and terminate IA miles east
of Argenta. 1t will cut only three
miles from the total distance, but it
will also eliminate a bad grade.
The Western Pacific in its course
through Nevada will run but five
miles north of Battle Mountain. It's
course will take it through
the Blossom ranch for distance of
nine miles. The ranch is baronial
domain of $4,000 acres.
The passage of the road through
the ranch will be accompanied by the
establishment of new town, which
will undoubtedly be called "Blos-
som" after the owner of the ranch.
II. G. Blossom is son of the late
II. A. Blossom, in his day one of the
foremost men in the political and
business life of Nevada. He came to
Reno for the purpose of joining the
Reno lodge, b. p. o. f., and took all

from $40 to $500 per ton. The ex-
tension of the group is owned by Ben
d. Luce, well known Salt Laker
who has what they consider one of
the really promising groups in all
the district.
Mr.. Myer stated that he recently
had inspected the Nevada Fairview
property, likewise a Salt Lake propo-
sition, corralled by Willard f. Sny-
der and associates in the early days
of the camp. This company has been
hard at work sounding its group at
depth, with fine results. Mr.. Myer
states that there has been a new vein
found on the top of the mountain on
this property. which he deems the
making of a big mine in itself. This
vein is over % feet in width and
carries very fine values. They both
are of the opinion that Fairview is
one of Neyada's deep and permanent
camps.

DEL|NQUENC|ES
ARE NOT HEAVY
ReportW Will Show Only About $1,000
On the List...AsseSsOr Much
Pleased With the Result.

County Treasurer Miles has com
pleted the delinquent tax list, upon
which he has been working continu-
ougly since the books were closed a
little more than week ago.
The delinquent list this year is I'M
usually small particularly when the
financial stringency is taken into con-
sideration The total number of de-
Iinquents, according to the books, is
1873, which is much less than for the
preceding year.
The total amount of taxes involved
in the delinquent list this year is S.
$3.50, while the books OF the treas
nrer show that the amount collected
was s34,06s.54.
The total amount collectable this
year was 81 ,639.40, which leaves
s37 ,570.SG TO be collected. Sub
tracing the amount of taxes delin-
qnent, $S,59G.50, from this, shows
amount, $30,974.36. remaining TO be
collected in the second half install
ments Of taxes. the first half, includ-
ing poll taxes, has already been paid.
OF the 1913 delinquents, the great
est amount owing the county by any
one concern Is due from the Giroux
Consolidated company. The assessed
valuation of that company's property
is s53,240 for real estate and 1905
for buildings and improvements
making total of S53,54 for which
| they are assessed $1,740.22. The
penalty of 10 Der cent added to this
| for delinquency makes their present
| Indebtedness to the county $1,914.24
| This company rendered to the treas.
| urer their first installment on the
Kimberly special school tax, but the
tender was refused because it was not
made for the entire first installment
The second largest debtor 10 the
county is the Northern hotel, which
is assessed at s33 800 for real estate
and for IS, personal property
which, with the penalty Of 10 per
cent, makes the assessment $l,374 rs
which, with the II per cent penalty
makes 81 ,512.22 owing the county.
In the entire delinquent list there
are only 26 taxpayers who owe more
than $50, and there are 167 who owe
less than 1925. County Treasurer
Miles holds that these figures refute
the statement frequently made before
tnt ilSt tlOSfu, llIdt ne W dS
a hardship on the taxpayers by his
refusal to accept checks in payment
Of taxes.
The greater number of delin-
quentS coui 1 two checks
for $25 each week for two weeks, and
could have thus met their taxes if
they had bank accounts, and If they
had desired to pay promptly. The ma
jority OF the delinquents owe much
less than $50. while the number who
owed $25. or less, exceeded all other
divisions, hence If these people were
banking their money they could have
readily paid.
Treasurer Miles Is well pleased
with the condition of the tax roll, and
says that the delinquent list being
SO small, is distinct credit to gen
eral business conditions I'm the county.
The greater number of delinauents
are Elyites, or are delinquent on
property in the immediate vicinity of
the camp. The farmers have paid IN
promptly and there are few agricul-
tnralists or stock men on the dein-
quent list.

that he had the right to appoint a

was entitled to "a fee for catching the

Root, and ought to let the marshal

"A HALF DAY IN THE FOR UNI

a HALF LA Y I'm 11E FOKUM
Our first view OF the Forum was
from the brow Of Capitoline hill al
its western end We looked down
on the Sacra Via that hat echoed to
the marching feet OF hundreds Of
t1iumphal professions, either side
lined with the broken columns of
ruined temples and monuments, past
the Pala,ine hill on its right crowned
with the ruins OF many a palace OF
the Caesare, past the Arch Of Titus
that bes.rides the Sacred Way, up
to the majestic walls of the Coliseum
about half a mile away, and the
brow OF the hill where are remains
Of the Golden House OF Nero just
beyond. In such a wilderness Of
monuments, which have been nn-
covered within a generation by the
Italian, government at cost Of sew
eral millions, only a brief allusion to
the more prominent is possible in the
limits of a single letter. One strong
impression is the extent to which,
with the triumph Of Christianity in
the Roman world, more ancient
buildings were readapted to use as
Christian churches. Several are on
the borders of the Forum, one Of
which we examined. It had been
erected on the southwest edge OF the
Palatine hill by reconstruction OF
what was probably lhe library Of the
ruined temple OF Augustus. We saw
the broken fragments Of ancient
statues which they had laid in its
walls, broken, no doubt, and abhor-
red because they were images Of
gods that had been worshiped, and
therefore violation Of the law OF
Moses. We saw their.rude mosaics
representing ptural scenes, show
ing clearly the decay Of artistic skill
as compared with early Roman CEN
turies, and the very stone sarcopha-
gus OF the builder whose marks
showed that in latter age it had
served, as bath tub for some medi-
aevat Roman. In the mosaics, this
donor was represented as saint
with aquare sureole about his head.

saint portrayed was dead. Il was
