Virginia.

Or. Douglas :. Freeman. OF tho state
Tan Commission, who has been engaged
III going over the personal property
and realty valuations in the state for
period dating back as far as 1880,
fnds that since that year the value OF
real and personal property in Virginia
has increased rs follows:
Personal property in 1850 was as
scssed at S10.3al 900. but to-day this
same property is assessed at sl7S.93G,-
600
In 1880 real estate in Virginia was
valued al $e5l.2i2.00o while to day the
assessed realty valuation has increased
to I00,SS? 00O.
DR.. Freeman explains that while on
their face these figures would appear
10 be very satisfactory. that in reality
they arc not at all in proper Keeping
with the progress and increased wealth
OF the state. This is shown BY the
fact that the present assessed Valuation
Of personal property in Virginia is
only Sl0.0oo.oo0 greater than the real
value of personal property here in 1850.
and that the assessed Value of personal
PROPERTY to-day IS less than one half
Of the known value Of personal prop
crty here IN sol.
Yer. Small Valuation.
As regards The actual value OF per
scnalty, II is pointed out that in 1901.

available, til" estimates show a valua-
ton Of SS6l,00o.o00. To-day the as

with the statements or several South

Toncy insisted that lie lad spent sew
cral days last week in close company
with the hunted ex-convict in Alex

that city for Washington. Fitzgerald
Toncy said, did not seem 10 be in need

showed him AS much as $500 ir

added which is substantiatcd ~ the

rather the detective department is close

In the first statement since the dis

Obituauy-Mrs. Benham.

Mrs. Lucille Broughton Benham
was born near Morganville, Kansas,
Oct. II, 1882. With her parents she
removed to Abilene, Kan, where she
has grown to womanhood and where
her marriage occurred Aug. 8, 1905,
to Bertram Benham Of Enterprise
Kan. Lucille endeared herself to all
with whom she came in contact, her
first thought always being for others.
She will be especially missed in the
home where she was ever solicitous
for the comfort and welfare Of her
widowed mother, brothers and sis
tiers. Her friends are numbered by
those who knew her. To know her
was but to love her. She was a de-
voted and loving wife and the life OF
husband and wife as companions was
a beautiful example of true welded
life. Mrs. Benham passed away Sun
day evening at 1920 after an illness
of several weeks at the home Of her
mother Mrs. Mary J. Broughton 214
East Enterprise street.
The funeral Of Mrs. Benham oc-
Cured yesterday afternoon at 2 p.
