Yesterday morning that no writ had as

the fact that the all-important step of
getting out the writ had not yet been
taken.
At all events, Mr.. Chaplin, who had
applied to Justice Collins for an order
for its issuance and obtained the same

ASPHALT is CHOSEN.
Final Order for Paving wabasba
Made

Made.
The final order for paving Waba-
sha: street with asphalt from Third
street to College avenue having at
last passed both bodies of the coun-
Gil, the board of public works pro-
poses to expedite the future proceed
ings.
Mayor Smith signed the order yes
terday, and it was officially published
by the city printer yesterday after
noon, thus rendering it effective. The
board of public works will begin adj
vertising for bids next Monday, hay
ing already directed the city engineer
to prepare the plans and specifica-
tons for an asphalt pavement from
curb to curb. AS the advertisement
must be published ten times, the bids
cannot be opened until Aug. %, when
the board of public works will recon-
mend that the contract be awarded
to the lowest responsible bidder. No
regular meetings of the board of aid
ermen or the assembly are scheduled
to take place after Aug. 20 until
Sept. and 5, but adjourned or spe-
cial meetings may be held subsequent
to Aug. % and prior to Sept in
order to award the contract But in
any event work on Wabasha street
will hardly begin before the second
week in September, unless some new
contractor enters the field, as the
Warren-Scharf company will scarce
ly finish Fourth street and Hennes-
sy & Cox will be busy paving ST.
Peter street until about that time.
1t is estimated that from six to seven
weeks will be required to pave Wa
basha street owing to the street car
tracks, which render it impossible to
work as rapidly as in the case of
streets free from tracks. But in any
event Wabasha street ought to be
completed by Nov. 1 at the latest.
Hennessy q Cox will begin work
on st. Peter street day after tomor-
row. The laying of the new water
main on the street has not been COM
pleted, and there are several water
connections yet to be made, all of
which may delay the paving con-
tractors for the first ten days, but
Mr.. Hennessy says that the work of
paving the street will be accom-
plished in three weeks. In other
words, st. Peter street will be paved
by Sept. 10 at the outside.
The board of public works instruct
ed the city engineer yesterday to no.
tify the property owners on Waba-
sha, st. Peter and West Fifth streets
to proceed at once to have their wa
ter, gas and sewer connections made
preparatory to the paving of those
streets. In case the property owners
! neglect to do this the paving con-
tractors will be instructed to do it
for them, and the cost thereof will
be charged against the property.

LAST DAY FOR EaUALIz1NG.
Today the Board Will Finish It's
LaIp0rs.

The board of equalization had an
other struggle yesterday with the Ques-
ton of making up the S17S,C00 deducted
by the board from assessments against
which protests had been made. There
was considerable difference of opinion
as to the Interpretation of the law, I'M
til the county attorney was finally
called in to give his Interpretation. Mr..
Butler held that in the case of arbitra-
ry assessments that had been abated
there was no occasion for making up
the amount thus deducted from the to-
tai valuation of property.
Mr.. Montgomery and the county au-
ditor thought there was a conflict be-
tween the special law, on which the at
torney based his opinion, and the gen.
eral law, but the county attorney in
sisted that the special law was the one
that governed.
On recommendation of Assessor Seng
the easement of Billiard Bros. was re-
duced from $4,000 to $3.50, the amount
returned by them. The assessment of
Myers & Co. was likewise reduced to
the valuation returned by them, So, 500.
On motion of MIR. Van Slyke the
question as how the trust companies
should be assessed was referred to a
special committee, consisting of AS
SCISSOR Seng, Mr.. Montgomery and Mr.
Van Slyke, which is to consider the
matter in connection with the county
attorney.
Mr.. MoritZ wanted to know if the
base ball company was assessed, and
Assessor Seng replied that it was
Gen. Bishop entered a protest against
assessing two mortgages held by the
De Camp and Dedolph minors at
civ for Inc n,,o
$500 and the other for $1,000. Gen.
Bishop thought the assessment should
be reduced one-half and the board
granted the request.
On recommendation of Assessor Seng
the assessment of Michaud Bros was
reduced to $13,565, the amount of their
sworn statement.
Today is the last day the board will
be in session.

State Library Enriched by Some
Notable Works

A rare and valuable addition was
made to the library of the Minnesota
Historical society yesterday, over which
Librarian Kingsbury poured with de-
lighted eyes. 1t was the Metropolis
Of Ancon Peru" by w. Peiss and A.
Stubel. The plates are in the highest
grade of photographic art, the coloring
being a marvel of artistic work The
designs are illustrative of the ancient
people of Peru, their habiliments, i'm
plements of warfare and husbandry,
and historic pictures bordered by hero
glyphic writings. The work is in fif-
teen parts folio and there are only
fifteen sets now for sale in the world.
The lithographing is the work of Will
helm Greve, of Berlin.
The Metropolis will make a SPLEEN
did companion piece to Lord Kings
borough's Mexican Antiquities which
is also in the library. The latter work
is now extremely rare, the last quoted
price being $700 for the nine volumes
which compose the set.
Other works received yesterday by
Librarian Kingsbury are the following:

LOTS OF INFORMATION REGARD
ING THE POPULATION OF
THE TWIN CITIES.
TIPS FROM MANY SOURCES,
BUT NONE OF THEM APPEAR TO
BE OF ANY PARTICULAR
VALUE.
THE CENSUS BUREAU IS MUM.
1t VIII Not Have It's Figures
Ready Until Later in the
Month.

AS the time rolls around when the
first census bulletin is. to be issued
interest increases in the figures for
st. Paul and Minneapolis. At the
capitol yesterday afternoon Capt.
Wildt was busy paying off the emu
merators and other members of the
bureau were making footings for ST.
Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth. 1t
is expected that Bulletin No. 1 will
be issued in the next four days.
Around the state offices yesterday a
good deal of guessing was under way
as to results. One enthusiastic Min
neapolis man, talking in the treas
urer's Office, said Minneapolis would
crowd 100, 900 very close. Over in the
dairy commissioner Office a lot of
gossip Was going ON, and one man,
not a member of the commission,
said he had figures right from the in
side for both St. Paul and Minneapo-
lis. Asked where he got them, he
said they did not come from the CEN
suS bureau, but that he got them
from so reliable a source that he was
willing to bet on them. He was not
at all backward with his informa-
ton, and said he did not mind saying
that the population of ST. Paul was
little short of 143, 900 and that Min
neapolis would show a trifie more
than 17S,000. In every Office at the
capitol it was easy to get conjectures,
and not a few gave their guesses
with that knowing wink which tells
you that your informant has his tip
straight from the census bureau. One
man offered to wager that he could
tell within hundred what the Min
neapolis schedules showed. He
didn't say he had been let into the
secrets Of the bureau, but saying
that he had his figures from reliable
Minneapolis parties, intimating as
strongly as he dared that he get
them from the Flour City's citizens
committee. This man said the pop
ulatfon of the Mill City is shown to
be about $4,000. He had heard, too,
he said, within a week that st. Paul
up to Aug. 2 showed only 1S9, 900, but
that the citizens committee had Sc
cured the addition of enough names
to bring the population of the cap
ital UP to little more than 14O, 900.
So 1T went all around the capitol
building. Everybody had something
to give out except the census bureau,
which was as mum as a Baltimore
oyster. The people in the bureau
received Everybody cordially, but
firmly told all inquirers that they
really didn't know how many people
either city had. This was literally
true. OF course, the bureau already
knows approximately how many peo-
pie have been enumerated in each
city, but it does not know exactly
the number listed in each, as not all
of the schedules have been footed.
The totals given out by unauthorized
persons may be pretty fair as guesses
but they are worthless as facts.

HEAVENS WATERFALL
Made Lakes in the Streets Yester-
day Afternoon.

Yesterdays storm of hail and rain
did comparatively little damage in the
city proper. The quantity of water
that came down was sufficient to food
the streets in many places, and in
some instances the street cars plowed
their way through little lakes very
much as fiat-bottomed canal boat
moves through the water with a group
of mules pulling on the tow line In
several parts of the city small trees
and poorly-constructed fences were
blown down. A trip into the suburbs
showed that corn and uncut grain
suffered considerably from the hail,
but fortunately there was not enough
of the ice-bullet cannonading to en-
tirely destroy the crops, unless where
they were fully exposed to the fury
of the wind, rain and hail combined
For a few minutes the rainfall was
something terrific. Passengers on open
cars were pretty thoroughly wet in
travelling a few blocks, and at that
they stood on the seats. Passengers
who had to leave the cars, especially
ladies, were drenched in passing from
the car to the shelter of the stores or a
friendly hallway.
