OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

| Mrs. Nellie Shanahan has a
large number of fine chickens. A
party called upon her in their fine
yacht and spent a most delightful
day. They picked up Mrs. Craig
at No Name Key, and visited with
Them. Mrs. Shanahan spends her
time divided among her children
and large colony of bees.
Mr.. Atwell divides his work be-
tween Rannrod Key and No Name
Key. He is making a beautiful
beach at No Name Key, and is
clearing up land on Ramrod Key.
Steve and Van set their watches
| by his punctuality in passing their
mansion at Z o'clock every morn
ing. His old buggy takes him
there and brings him back.
The sponge fishermen are get
ting restless. They are praying
for the weather to give them q
chance to gather the sea-product.
We note that two camp trailers
are stopping just off the bridge at
the site of the East Coast Railway
water tanks, where it is handy to
water. We wish them a bounty
supply of fish that are caught off
the many bridges that link Key
West with No Name Key.
Il What more would man desire
said Steve-a house to live in, al
spark ing spring to drink from,
the best fishing in the world, salu-
brious climate, peaceful nights
and an abundance of God-giving
ozone.

ARCH IS COMPLETE
ON THE,yN6jERPASS
Last of Huge Steel Concrete
Slabs Put Into Place
by Derricks

The last of the giant 4O-foot steel
concrete slabs were set at the Church
Charles street underpass just before
noon today and that portion of the
work was completed There were
eight of these and they were all plac-
ed in three and a half days since
Monday morning, when two huge der
ricks of the Seaboard Air Line rail-
road started work. -.
Moreover, three tracks were torn
up and replaced in connection with
the placing of the large supports for
the railroad, and the fourth and last
one was expected to be put back by
nightfall.
Two more large steel beams were
placed on each side of the underpass
span, and with this completed by noon
the derricks had finished their duties
here and prepared to leave.
Already pouring of the curb and
gutter concrete has started on the
Charles street side of the underpass
in front of the Henderson high school,
and, if given good weather for several
weeks the contractors will have the
underpass advanced far enough that
a good idea can be had Of it's general
appearance and of the remaining time
that will be required before it can be
opened for traffic.
Indications now are that late spring
may see the entire job completed and
the roadway in service.

RETALIATION FAR
FROM ENDED YET
Appraisers for Henderson
Have Yet To Work on
Corporations

Appraisers working on the quad
rennial property revaluation in Vance
county still had much work to do to-
day, but were making progress to-
ward completion of their tasks, it was
learned.
Three appraisers, Al. B. Wester, f.
B. Hight and M. l.. Finch, have been
working on the revaluation in Hen
derson and Henderson township for
the past month or two. They have
finished virtually all real estate in the
city, with the exception of corpora
ton holdings, and still have the farms
of the township to be visited and
evaluated.
Mr.. Wester hazarded the opinion
today that it might be we'll on toward
the end of April before the three had
entirely completed their task.
little has been learned as to the
progress of the appraisers in the rural
townships, but it was understood most
of them had listed most of the land
in their territories. The joH there was
nothing like SO complex as that in
Henderson township and in the city.
Iist-taking will begin as of April
1, and list-takers have been named
and approved by the county commits
sioners. Horace M. Robinson, regis
ter of deeds, has been named as SUI
pervisor of the listing. This will in
clude not only real estate, which will
carry the valuation placed by the ap-
praisers, but also personal property,
of which there is a tremendous
amount.
The law requires that listing shall
be done during the month of April,
and by the end of that month, or soon
thereafter and it is expected that by
that time most property will be on
the books for compilation and COM
putation in preparation for the levy
ing of the 1887 tax rate.
Meanwhile the City Council has
ordered listing in the city proper to
begin as of April 1, with all property
to be registered at the city clerk S
office

''The very fine increase being

thing that could happen for the high

Governor Hoey said today. "For the
more revenue we collect for the gen

having to divert any money from the
