Per Cent Act viii Not Figures On Real Estate In
The Eighty-Gight Counties OF The State Forecast
Grand Tax Duplicate OF Nearly Seven Billion Dollars
..COmmiSSiOn Itself Adds About Twenty Per Cent
Of The Entire Increase In Valuation

Columbus, O., Aug. 30.-The state
tax commission announced final fig
ures on real estate In the S8 counties
of the state. 1t forecasts for Ohio a
grand tax duplicate of nearly $1,000
100000. The total value of realty
in Ohio as fixed by the commission
is $4,246, ,42S,569, as against 81 $751;
669.958 last year or an increase OF
1856 per cent, or measured in dol
lars, $2,5S4, 1851. All notions that
the Smith 1 per cent act will fail,
save in few isolated districts, are
set aside by the figures.
The increase in real estate as
finally announced exceeds the total
grand duplicate of last year. The
commission itself added about 20 per
cent of thc entire increase after local
boards had said the real property
had been appraised at its true value
in money.
In Paulding county the commission
and the present board of review
found the real estate values SO low
that they were raised 37S.5 per cent,
while in Carroll county the increase
was only 1856 per cent. Lorain coun
ty was raised 226.S per cent. Au-

only county in the state where the
local board of review worked so well
that the commission did not find it
necessary to make large additions to
the duplicate.
For the entire state the increase
amounts to 1856 per cent, making
the present figures more than two
and one-half times as great as those
of last year. For individual counties,
however the variation from this av-
erage covers a very broad latitude.

Modern sanitary science has aboI-

and has enabled the President to

methods of prevention and cure of
tropical diseases than all other coun

RunaWaus Back From Eastern Shore

After an adventurous trip of a
week, secreted in a lifeboat for "a
hours without food and water, Ma
rion Albert Cannon, 10 years old,
son of Mrs. Mary Cannon 1901 Han
over street, and Norman Robinson,
13 years old, son of Mrs. Laura
Robinson, 1912 Maldies street, Bal
timore, returned home this morning.
Their mothers were overjoyed to
see them, having heard they had
been drowned.
During the trip down the bay the
boys lay secreted in a lifeboat on
board the steamer Joppa. Each
took turns watching while the 9TH
er slept, for fear their place of con-
cealment might be washed over
board.
Norman met the Robinson boy
early Tuesday morning and planned
the ranaway, telling Norman that
they could go down the country and
nix I'D r. wherries and make S. a
week. Norman consented and the
two boys went to Light street wharf
Marion said: Norman led the
way on the boat and told
me to get in, and he would follow
suit within a few minutes, after he
saw the coast clear. I jumped in,
and about half an hour later Nor
man got in the boat and we pulled
the canvass covering over us.
ct was great fun, but was very
hungry, as I had had nothing to eat
since breakfast. When the boat
was down the bay, the weather got
rough and the water splashed and
wet us. We tried to slip out and
get some water, but a man was
standing near and we were afraid.
When the boat reached Secretary,
Md, Norman said: we get off
here, as my grandfather lives here,
and this is where I wanted you to
come, I only mentioned strawberry
picking to you to get you to go
along :"
Marion said this morning that
he only went away because his mo-
ther needed his help and he thought
he could make some money and
help pay the rent. "My mother has
had very hard time to get along
and has lots of trouble" he said.
Mrs. Cannon conducts a little
store at 1901 Hanover street, and
was overcome with JOY when the
boy walked in.
Marion came home by himself at
$50 o'clock this morning and went
to the side door and raped. His
mother, in answering the knock, was
overcome, for there stood Marion,
his face sunburned and anxious. He
had a large boquet and when he
saw his mother he burst out cry
ing:
please do not beat me,for I'll
never run off any more"
Mrs. Cannon said: when my
husband left me a year ago,he took
both children from me, and no
one knows the torture / suffered
three long months until I located
them.''
Marion was sent back to the city
by the Robinson boys parents, and
Norman was arrested by the police
of the Southern district anu turned
over to his parents.
Someone told Mrs. Cannon tale
