must be made into q real fighting unit

ASSESSMENT BASIS
TO BE IMPROVED
Progress Being Made in Re-
vision of the City's Prop
erty Valuations

Steady progress is being made in
the revision of property valuations in
the city for the triennial assessment.
it was said at the City Assessors of
flee to-day. At present valuations
are being fixed on properties in the
Tenth ward. Practically all the work
in the First. Second, Fifth, Sixth,
Eleventh and Twelfth wards has been
finished and, as the Fourteenth ward
assessments were made last year. it
is not believed that many changes
Will be necessary there.
The County Commissioners are pre-
pairing for trienniaI assessment work
in the county. Increases in valua-
tions of coal lands and many indus
trial plant properties are predicted,
the Commissioners declaring many
of these are assessed at a figure far
below their actual value. Every eff
fort will be made, one of the Com
missioners said, to have the assess
ments made on a more equitable
basis this year than ever before.

the Unhabhangige Republikaner, a
German newspaper formerly issued in
this city, which went out of exist

which. printed eighty-three years

K. Daubert. Good old rye whisky,
that is not dispensed over the pres

for IS cents gallon.

which they were supreme. Mike"
Gibbons was the first to admit that
ne can no longer make weight.
Featherweight Champion Johnny
kllbane also has practically retired,
, and 1t is not likely that he ever
again viii try to defend the title.
Benny Leonard is practically a well

from making fortune on which to
retire, for winning the lightweight
championship from Freddie Welsh,
would have cleaned him many
thousands.

ters, Merkle, Mann, Flack and Pas
kert. Says he: when you get a
club doing all these things at one
time 1T is hard to beat, and that is
why we are on top to-day. The pace
at which we have gone on this trip
recalls to mind that marvellous
climb the Boston Braves made from
last place to first in 1914. That
year the Braves did everything we
are doing now; they hit in the
plnches; they ran the bases we'll;
they fielded cleverly, and the twirl-
ers performed with skill. Besides,
they had confidence. The work of
the twlrlers was one of the predom-
mating features of the Boston clubs

VIII recollect George Stallings had

Tyler were strong and effective. If
you will glance back to the games

me to take few pitchers off the slab,
That means success"
