Several Witnesses Estimate the
Value of Lake PhnIen Lots.
Only six witnesses appeared before
The board of public works yesterday
10 testify as to the value of the land
10 be taken for Phalen park. In the
afternoon the board waited in vain
for more witnesses, and accordingly
adjourned the hearing until next
Wednesday at 10 a. m. The board also
decided that unless the parties in in
terest appear and offer more testimony
than can be taken that day the board
would cease taking testimony and pro-
ceed to fix the value of the land to be
taken.
The witnesses examined yesterday
were Joseph r. Weide, George S. He
ron, Orrin Kipp, Aid. Lindahl, of the
First ward, Charles w. Moore, and
George F. Woolsey. All save Mr.. Kipp,
who owns a ten-acre lot on the east
side of the lake, testified on the side
of the property owners to be as
seSsed.
Mr.. Weide was the first witness to
take the chair. MIR. Weide estimated
the average value of lots 5, and on
the west shore of Lake Phalen at
about 500 an acre. but that the parts
nearest the lake were worth s., 900 an
acre. The strips along the south and
southeast shores he considered worth
on an average $500 an acre. He valued
the lots in Lakeview and Overlook
additions, on the east side of the lake,
at the points where they are high and
slightly, at $1,000 an acre, and where
low, at $500 an acre.
Mr.. Heron thought that the frontage
of lot on the west side of the lake,
extending back 200 feet, was worth
500 an acre. The rest of the lot, as
we'll as the rear portions of lots and
5, he estimated at $400 an acre. Mr..
Heron valued the strips on the south
and southeast shores at $500 per acre,
and lots 8, 10 and II, of Mackey's
IakeView addition, at $500 each. He
considered lots 2 and 4, of ten acres
each, in Lake Residences, worth $3.50
an acre, and placed the same value on
the lots in Overbrook addition.
Orrin kipp, the owner of lot of
Lake Residences. valued it at 81 500 an
acre, and considered that the part to
be condemned, constituting about one
fourth of the lot, was worth $500 an
acre.
= Aid. Lindahls estimate of the value
OF lots 3, 4 and 5 on the west side
ranged from $500 to $500 an acre.
'CharieS w. Moore reaffirmed his esti-
mate OF their value which he had given
upon the old proceedings, which was
about the same as Mr.. Heron's valua-
tions
.z George F. Woolsey, the last witness,
-testihed that in his opinion the land
on the east shore averaged about $500
an acre. and that that on the west side
ranged from $500 to 81, 900 an acre. The
strips on the south shore he considered
of little value.

The suit of Charles Clifford TO ra-
cover from the proprietors of a Rohart
street gambling house, some 81 500 al
legged to have been lost therein by him
came up before Judge Brill Yesterday
on an application on behalf of the de-
lehdants, for an order releasing their
property held on attachment. Judge
Brill granted the order, SO the proba-
oli1ty Is that they have settled with
Clifford.
When the action was begun a writ
OF attachment for all the propertv of
the defendants was issued. and q
deputy sheriff was sent down to take
possession Of all in sight. The com
ing OF the official was tipped off" to
the proprietors and the dealers were
all ordered to take the cash from the
drawers and put it in their pockets
The order was obeyed as promptly as
possible, but before one dealer had
succeeded In getting his out of sight
the limb of the law was upon him and
some $500 was nailed. The safe was
also taken possession Of but the pro-
prietors refused to open it. Thus
things ran along for several days. the
dealers keeping their 'chink" in their
pockets and the safe remaining closed
until the matters were finally SQUARED
in some way and this order secured

DULUTH CHURCH CHANGE.
a Pennsylvania Man Probably to
Take First Church.


One of the most important changes
in the appointments in the Methodist
churches of Minnesota this fall will be
that of the First church, Duluth, in
the Minnesota Northern conference.
The church is one of the best buildings
of any denomination in the state, be-
ing rated at $135 900. The retiring pas
tor is the Rev. J. M. Thoburn Jr., a
nephew of Bishop J. M. Thoburn, of
India. Pastor Thoburn goes from Du-
luth, where he has done an excellent
work for the past two years, to the
Central NJ. E. church, Detroit. Mich.
1t is one of the strong churches of
Methodism; the church being valued at
100000, the parsonage at $4,000, and
pays its pastor a salary Of $1,000. 1t is
expected that the Rev. G.. H. Human
son, of Warren, Pa, will succeed DR..
Thoburn at Duluth. He is now pre-
siding elder of the jamestown district
in the Erie conference.

LIBRARY OF THE FIRENIEN.
Hint for People Who Have Books
to Spare.

TO spare.
ST. Paul firemen think it would be a
happy thought on the part of those
numerous citizens who always have
books enough and to spare, if they
would remember the library of the
firemen's relief association. This Ii
brary is patronized by almost every
fireman in the city, and affords them
no little pleasure and information. 1t
was established about fifteen years
ago, and now contains some 700 vol
umes. 1t is located in No. l engine
house, and is in charge of the asso-
citation librarian, Capt. H. McFadden,
of No. /. During the past year citi-
zens appear to have forgotten the Ii
brary's existence, for it has received
in that period but a single contribu-
ton. The firemen's thoughtful friend
was Col. Glenn, paymaster of the de-
partment of Dakota.

town of Fruithurst, Cleburne county. Ala, the property of the Fruithurst Win cry association, is one of the most at tractive exhibits in the building. For no collection in the California building can surpass it, while their model vine yard attracts general attention.
 Next, on the left of the western en- trance, is the exhibit of the East Bir- mingham Corrogating and Roofing com pany, showing splendid class of work and in great variety. This company furnished the material for covering the annex to the building, and it was a most generous contribution from public spirited company.
 Mobiles exhibit is next and presents a great variety of the manufactured prod ucts of the Gulf City. The display of home made cigars shows well for this industry and Mobile is destined to be- come a rival of Key West in the manu- fracture of fine cigars. There are also in this exhibit photographic scenes from the harbor and shipping, giving splendid showing for Mobiles port trade.
 There are minor displays of min erals which will be seen from the follow ing list to comprise a greater variety than even Alabamians were aware of to any great extent.
 A display of kaolin and haloycite, from Allen Springs mines. DeKalb coun-
 
 deposit, which for quality and quantity experts say has no superior on this con- tinent for the manufacture of pottery ware. Also splendid collection of kao- lin from John Neff Tuscumbia. Ala.
 There is a collection of copper and iron pyrites from Hatchett Creek, Clay coun- ty. Ala; marble, calcite and roofing slate from Talladega county, Alabama; also marble exhibit of W. l.. Pratt from Bloc ton, Ala, and manganese from Walnut Grove, Ala; gold and ochre from Jack son. Ala; auriferous sand and gold ores from J. w. D. Eckles, Hefiin, Ala; mica from Randolph county.

 The Boards Work.
 After the formation of the board of managers much work was required with the railroads to get the board in such working shape as was necessary to carry out their plans This necessarily involy- ed delay, and during that delay the ardor and enthusiasm created at the Bir- mingham meeting of the Alabama Com- mercial association died out in many of the interior towns, with partial loss of intertst in many of the larger ones. so that when the work of raising the fund for the building was entered upon in earnest only a few places, comparatively speaking responded. And 1t was the un- certainty that rendered the work of the board the more arduouS and worrying and that they succeeded so well speaks in lasting praise of their efforts In reality they started out to take no kind of de- feat. Success was their only motto. and success they have achieved in a most remarkable degree. placing the entire state under debt of obligation to them for their patriotic and unselfish services so generously given to this enterprise.
 Chert.
 The impression prevailed at the outset that the Alabama building was unfin- ished, and some criticism was made be- cause no floor had been put in it. But the exhibits were of such a heavy nature that no ordinary floor could have held them, though the stronger and main req son why no floor was laid was to find a place to exhibit the "chert" from the Birmingham district, which all visitors now admire so much, the board having no other place to put this material save in the main passageway of the building, and it has most admirably served its pur- pose.
 The Exhibits.
 The exhibits are more typical of Ala bama's wonderful resources than those contained in any other state building, and by far the best ever before given to the world This is the universal verdict. though there has been no attempt at any thing like the elaborateness found in some of the buildings.
 There are a number of the exhibits. however that deserve special mention and much more space than the purposes of this article will permit. Taking them in the order of arrangement from the
