NEW YORK, Sept. 2s.--All the critics
poked fun at Gany Deslys today, Most
n them said the art about which she
has had 80 much to say Is very much
among the missing and some were In
decent enough to assert that she is
not 30 ALFRED pretty either. So II was
natural that the public's verdict is
that little Gaby is getting four times
he presidents salary (for q while)
because Manuel OF Portugars infatu-
alton for her cost him his Job.
Nevertheless Gaby's debut here was
rood deal OF theatrical event,
some people paying as high as SIS to
tet glimpse OF her. She danced and
sang but principally wore jewels
about a peck. She also wore pretty
clothes, but these didn't figure much
more prominently than her acting.
Gotham saw Gaby, however, and the
esms that Manuel gave her and that's
ali It wanted.

MINIMUM VALUATION LAW

Tire Carson Appeal say that the
biggest bill passed by the last
legislature is the one placing a
minimum valuation of SIPS per
acre on lands for the purpose of
taxation. Following is the full
text of the new law:
Section l. Hereafter no land of
any description in the State of
Nevada owned by any individual,
partnership. association, estate,
corporation or otherwise, shall be
assessed at less than one dollar and
twenty-five cents per acre, either
by the County Assessor of the vari-
Gus counties or by the State Board
of Assessors.
Sec. 2. If the County Eoard of
Equalization shall ascertain that
any land within it's county has
been assessed upon a valuation of
less than one dollar and twenty
five cents per acre or has MT been
assessed at all, said Board shall
Immediately notify the County
Assessor to pay into the County
Treasury the taxes due on such
land upon valuation of at least
one dollar and twenty-five cents
per acre in such a sum as will
yield the full amount of taxes due
upon such land upon true value
and which valuation shall not be
less than one dollar and twenty
five cents per acre. If such
County Assessor fail to pay such
taxes within ten days after such
notification by the County Board
Of Equalization. it is hereby made
the duty of the District Attorney
to file and prosecute diligently a
suit against such Assessor and his
surety or sureties on his official
bond for the amount of such. taxes.
Sec. 3. If any time hereafter
the State Board of Assessors should
place valuation upon any land
with in the State of Nevada, the
provisions of this Act shall apply

the event of the violation of the
provisions of this Act by said
Board of Assessors, it is hereby
made the duty of the Attorney
General to file and prosecute dill
gently suit against the several
Assessors comprising said Board as
hereinbeforc provided.
The effect of the above, as will
be seen, is to place q minimum
valuation Of $l.25 per acre on all
lands in this state. 1t is compuls.
DRY valuation; the Assessors must
fix this rate or pay the sum cut of
their pockets or their bondsmen
