snenced the poubters.

Not long ago one of the New York
Central's runners, Dan Dormany, who
has since passed away, got tired Of
railroading and retired. He was well
past go years of age, and some of his
neighbors insinuated that he was
forced to quit owing to advancing
years. This reached Dormany's ears.
He went right back to the Central and
applied for a job. They we're very
glad to give him charge Of the en-.
CINE pulling the Empire State express
from Albany to Utica. He held this
run for six months just to show his
detractors that he bad quit railroading
Of his own accord, and then once
more gave up his place.

'sRArLRoAD POKER" HARD GAME.

would be a pair of tens and tours, and
1871 would be three aces and a pair

often all mixed UP and it takes a quick
eye to call the hand. The best hand
passed, and the party then await the
next train. Mr.. Underwood in his
early railroad days had experience in
catching and writing down the num-
.bers OF an entire freight train as it
moved past, and there are few men
who can beat him at railroad poker.
He was once a brakeman on the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, and
tells an interesting story of an expe-
rience with S.. S. Merrill, then general
manager. The latter was making a
trip ver the road in the winter, and
his private car was run as a special.
He was always apprehensive on the
road, and feared collisions, and made

ASSESSOR AND COUNCIL
WILL REDUCE VALUATION

At the meeting Of the board Of
equalisers in Canon City yesterday
afternoon at which Aldermen VIII
son and Beverstock we're in attend :
ance, it was decided that the assessed
valuation of Florence property should
be- cut next year. 1t was noticed that
property here is still valued on the
schedule taken some years ago when
the town was booming and when the
valuations were much better than
now. At that time the property was
valued at about sixty per cent of it's
cost while other towns are only pay
ing on about one-third valuation.
It has also been found that the values
are about double here what they are
in Canon, which makes Florence
property owners pay mere county and
state taxes than should be paid.
III view of this it was decided that
Assessor Morris, assisted by q com.
mittee to be named by the mayor,
should go over tho incorporated town
and reduce the valuations to the point
where they belong. This will in
clude all property in the city limits.
By doing this there will be a reduc-
tion in the county and state taxes
but ~ the city requires fxed
amount of money for operating expen-
ses, the municipal assessment will be
increased to meet the demands.
Therefore the taxpayers must not ex-
pect too much of reduction, but 1t
is getting the property values down
so that considerable cut can be
made in the year 1909. or when about
half Of the city water bonded indebt-
edness can be paid off. Then Flor
ence property owners will not be Ion
ger tax-burdened as at present, for
the city can cut the assessment to
q considerable extent.
