voted out. The board insisted upon
a raise of $1,307,3O2. making the
total assessed valuation of the COM
pany s5,1s0.775.
The banks throughout the state
next came up for a jolt at the hands
of the state board. The First Nation
al bank of Ely, the McGilI National
and the Copper National all came in
for substantial raise. The state
statements of the banks as to their
reserves and resources is the ground
on which the state board seeks to
justify this action.
As eventually fixed by the State
Board of Assessors the total valua-
tion of all property in the state OF
Nevada. excluding Bullion, is placed
at $13s.223.S45, while the average
value of all the agricultural land, in
Guiding alfalfa, meadow, grain, graz
ing. mountain and sage brush. Il
placed at $5.7S per acre.
The Nevada Tax Commission is nov
in session at Carson City reviewing
the work of the State Board Of Equal
lization. No further raises can b.
made but the commission has thu
power to decrease any individual as
sessment which may be found unrea
isanahle and uDOn proper ShOWinl
made.

CHAPTER X.

Early that year, the touch of autumn came to the air Often, returning at sundown from the afternoon life class, Samson felt the lure of it's melancholy sweetness, and paused on one of the Washington Square benches, with many vague things stirring in his mind He felt with a stronger throb abilities within himself Partly, it was the charm of Indian summer, partly sense of growing with the days, but also, though he had not as yet realized that. it was the new friendship into which Adrienne had admitted him and the new experience of frank cam araderie with a woman not as a mem Der of an inferior sex, but as an equal companion of brain and soul He had seen her often, and usually alone, be. cause he summed meetings with strangers Until his education had ad social emharrassments. He knew that she liked him, and realized that it was because he was new and virile type, and for that reason diversion a sort of human novelty She liked him, too, beeaSse it was rare for man to offer her friendship without making love. and she was certain he would not make love. He liked her for the same reasons that every one else did-beeause she was herself Of late, too, he had met number of men at Leseott's club He was mod estly surprised to find that. though his attitude on these occasions was always that of one sitting in the back ground. the men seemed to like him, and. when they said See you again at parting. 1t was with the convincing manner of real friendliness.

PAGES CORBETT'S WHITE
HOPE IN AN AUTO

Fights may come and fights may go,
but Billy Shannon's San Rafael train
ing camp will go on forever. The
camp that has made many boxer
famous is not to be barred and locked
just because the professional game in
California was swamped under host
of votes Shannon thinks there are
plenty of ambitious chaps who still
want to don the gloves, and he will
keep open house for them.
Just now he has in tow Tom Cow1er,
otherwise and better known as Jim
Corbett's white hope. When Corbett
started on his southern vaudeville tour
he left Cowler in charge of Shannon
and gave his novice strict orders to fol
low Bi1ly's instructions.
Accordingly, Shannon has been in
dulging himself as a manager. Shan
non, it should be explained, recently
purchased an automobile, and now that
he is proficient in the operation, he is
pacing Cowler in his daily runs.
Great stuff says Shannon. Il can
make him go just as fast or as slow
as l want to. Besides, / know just
what is happening all the time, and il
doesn't wear me out"

BLUEJACKET'S FREAK RECORD
Brooklyn Feds TwirIer Gets Credit
For Win Without Pitching Ball.


For Win Without Pitching Ball.
Jim Bluejacket, the Indian twirler of
the Brooklyn Federals, is said to be the
only pitcher in baseball history who
ever got credit for a victory without
pitching a ball.
1t happened late last summer when
the Brookfeds were playing the Pitts
burgh Rebels. Bluejacket was ordered
to the mound as a relief twirler in the
ninth inning when his own club was
behind. The Rebels had two out when
Bluejacket took up his duties. Steve
Yerlzes, the Pittsburgh second base
man, was on first. Bluejacket saw him
taking long lead and heaved the ball
to first. Yerkes was caught, making it
three out. During their session at the
bat the Brookfeds pounded out enough
runs to win the game
Bluejacket got credit for the victory,
in keeping with the rules, as his club
was behind when he went into the box
