Snow In Panhandle.

Fort Worth. Texas. Oct. 21.-Fol-
lowing a heavy rainstorm the entire
Panhandle and plains section Of Tex
as got its first taste oof winter. In
Amarillo snow began falling early in
the forenoon and continued all day,
the fall being estimated at two inches
breaking previous October records
covering a period of eighteen years.
The forecast indicates freezing for
tomorrow, and 1t is estimated that
the mercury will sink to 20 degrees
above zero, with continuation OF
snow fiurries. This morning the
temperature registered 80 degrees
and had risen to only 40 at noon.
The temperature Is sinking and
the indications are that the forecast
will be amply sustained. Reports
from other portions of the Panhandle
indicate the precipitation has been
much the same as in Amarillo, the
difference being in the character Of
the formation whether rain or snow.

MO. PACIFIC MEN
GO ON A STRIKE
OVER 1000 OF THEM WALK OUT
OF SHOPS TODAY.

St Louis. Mo-, Oct. 21.-Prompt-
ly at 10 o'clock this morning, $500
union employees in 21 shops along
the Missouri Pacific and Iron Noun
tain systems walked out in accord
ance with a strike order OF President
James OConnell Of the International
association OF machinists. They are
prepared to remain out Indefinitely.
In tying up this system, a general
strike is threatened effecting, all the
Gould lines.
The issuance of the order fol-
lowed an unsuccessful conference to
end the strike OF the machinists,
which began several months ago.
General Manager A. w. Sullivan, of
the Gould lines. suggested that IL a
strike Of the old mechanical trades
was to be ordered, 1t might as we'll
come now as at any other time. The
machinists were represented in con-
ference by James O'Connell, their
president. The. roads, prior to May
II, employed 1900 machinists. 1t is
expected the $500 members OF
allied trades Will respond to the or
der tomorrow.
The machinists were offered g.
cent raise, but wanted the working
conditions changed.
The roads have shops at Sedalia,
Mo-, and Little Rock, with branches
in Nebraska, Colorado. Illinois and
Kansas.

Total Real Estate Assessment
OF Paducah Will Be About
$4,000. 00O..-Will Increase
Personal Property.

With only two books of the -four
completing the block map Valuation
Iof city real estate finished. the valua-
tion returned is s11.2S4 ,604.91. as
compared with 81, 800, 900 real and
personal assessment last year. II is
ESTIMATED that the total real estate
assessment will reach $1S,000s00
which, with the personally added,
should give a total property assess
ment in the city close to $4,000
900, as an increase will be made in
personal assessment.
Added to this is the approximate
valuation OF s35S,O65 placed on the
Illinois Central property by the state
board last year. and of s61.374 on
the N. C. & st. l.. property.
The property estimated in the
first two books is composed of
improvements. ex-
fcluding about $125.OOO on the First
and City National bank buildings,
not yet completed. The remainder
Is ground valuation. These two
books include the First district
bounded by the river. Tennessee,
street. Ninth street and Boyd street;
and the second with the following
boundaries: Clay street and Hinkle-
willie road on the north, Tennessee
street to the I. c. tracks and south
ON the tracks to the city limits to
Twenty-fifth street and north on
street to the Hinkleyille
road, thence east along the road to
Clay and Ninth.
Some surprising facts have been
brought TO light. and the returns will
not worry a great many property
owners over their assessment being
raised. Much property is raised, but
II was found to be ridiculously under
valued, and some has been found that
never was assessed. One valuable
piece OF property I'm the very heart
Of the Broadway business district has
been back assessed some 5000, be-
cause the owners have beeen paying
on 90 front feet instead of 20. due to
an original clerical error OF some
years standing.
Many people. especially the owners
of modest homes. will find that their
assessments have not been increased;
but that other property has been
properly valued and will have to
bear its share OF the burden. The re-
suit of this will be. the administra-
tions program is carried out through
the cooperation of the city council,
that there will be a reduction In the
tax rate, or in the percentage of the
valuation at which the assessment
will be placed. thus resulting in an
actual reduction in the taxes of every
person. who has been paying on
anything approximating a fair valua-
ton. with greater revenue for the
city
