The medical faculty was put to
shame by a bolt of lightning which
the other night struck the farmhouse
of Charles A. Burdick, on Washing
ton Ridge. says the Berlin Comm
correspondent of the New York Her

cles in all the eight rooms of the
house and did damage exceeding ST.

matism, from which she had suffered
for many years.
Mrs. Burdick was about to put wood
in the kitchen stove when the bolt
struck her, knocking her down and
rendering her unconscious. One of
her feet was on zinc beneath the
stove The lightning took nail out
of the sole of her shoes and her foot
was severely burned. DR. Thomas
Mulligan OF New Britain soon revived
her. -r.
Today Mrs. Burdick, although suf-

ON DENVER PROPERTY.
Colorado Tax Commission Recom
mends Changes in Forty-Five
Counties Under New
State Law.

Denver.-The valuation of taxable
property in Colorado this year will be
within a few million dollars of last
year, according to the State Tax Com
mission. In view of the fact that the
valuation of Denver shows decrease
of approximately s37,0O0,0 900. this will
mean an improved showing by the
other counties of the state. The to-
tai valuation last year was $1,306.OOO,-
600 The only two large increases or
dered by the state commission are ioi
Denver, $55, ,4OS,990, and Weld county
$7.S04 900.
Increases in about forty-five coun-
ties were recommended to the various
county boards by the tax commission.
In most counties the raises suggested
are comparatively slight ones. Those
in Denver and Weld counties are the
largest.
The recommendations were made
under the amendment to the state
constitution adopted by the people at
the last state election. which is now
in effect for the first time.
1t allows the county boards of
equalization to eGualize the assess
ments as made by the local assessor
