IMPROVEMENTS ON LAUREL AND
AURORA CREATE DrsSENsIONS.

The principal matter to be considered
at the meeting of the committee on
streets of the board of aldermen to be
held this afternoon will be the award
of the contracts for the curling and
boulevarding of Laurel and Aurora ave-
nues, held UP at the last meeting of the
board
Fielding & Shepley We're the successful
bidders in both cases, the resolutions
calling for the awarding of the contracts
being introduced by Aldermen Schiff-
mann and Bantz respectively. The hold
ing up of the contract for Aurora ave-
rue was credited to the feeling that ex-
listed against the alderman of the Eighth
ward, while that belonging to Aid. Schiff-
mann was sent to keep it company. AID
Murphy, in explaining the matter, stated
that many property owners desired to be
heard before the contracts were let, and
from accounts it seems that he was right
in the matter. Petitions asking for the
annulment of the proposed improvement
have been numerously signed, and today
q delegation of property owners will ap-
pear before the committee to enter pro-
test
DR.. Ohage, of the board of health, has
also announced his intention of appear
ing before the committee in order to ex-
plain and ask favorable consideration for
his scheme to establish toilet rooms in

SOME sLAsHING EXPECTED.
Bids Calling for Expenditure of
100000 Will BE Opened This
Afternoon - Other Improve
ments to He Considered.

Bids for improvements calling for an
expenditure OF over 100000 will be con,
sidered at a meeting of the board of
public works to be held this afternoon.
Because of the competition that is like
~ to enSue, the most important contract
is the proposed paving OF Rice street
from Como to Front streets, the material
specified being asphalt Heretofore this
work has been done by the Barber COM
pany, but since the Conway Paving com
pany an independent firm with head
quarters at Chicago, entered the field,
there is a disposition on the part of the
former company to cut.
The last contracts were pulled down
by the Conway company, and in view Of
this fact it is not at all unlikely that
some unheard-of slashng will be seen to-
day when the bids are opened. Accord
ing to the engineers estimate the work
will cost over $50, CO.,
Other bids to be opened will be for the
construction of sewers on Martin AMI
Margaret streets, the same being con-
tinuation of the Selby avenue system
The engineers estimate is $4,000 and
$40. 1O4 respectively.
Friday evening the board will leave for

anime their plant and work done by the,
firm in Chicago.

LIBRARIES ARE GROWING
THE APPROPRIATION FOR PUBLIC
SCHOOLS is FAR TOO SMALL.

The growth of public school libraries
in the state is something astonishing"
said Assistant Superintendent of Public
Instruction Nelson yesterday afternoon.
During the past year over 400 school
libraries have sprung into existence and
this is a record that has not been broken
for many years in the past. The appro-
priation of $4,000 was used up month
ago and if the department does not se-
cure the additional appropriation of $780,
600 it will be seriously handicapped in the
work of building up the present libraries
in the state and starting new ones. Last
year the appropriation was gone by Feb
ruary, and the same can be said of this
year. A bill Is now before the legsla-
ture for $4,000 appropriation, and this,
if secured, will straighten out the diff
flculties now being experienced by the
department. DIS
by the present system of distributing
books, each school in the state can secure
limited number of books every year,
but these books must be selected from
list furnished9by, the department The
past year we gave books to 693 districts,
and out of these 400 were districts. This
department thought the annual appro-
priation would last until August in
each year, but the surprising growth Of
the school libraries is something that it
did not fgureison There are now 1900
libraries in tAe state schools and their
value aggregates lin the neighborhood of
$780, 900. There, are 1000 districts in the
state and at theTpresent rate of growth
there will soon be enc library for every
two districts. ;9iIs

REV. CHARLES EWING TALKS OF
BOXER TROUBLES.

China changing from slumbering great
ness to fury Embarrassed was portrayed
last night at the Peoples church by Rev
Charles E. Ewing. His lecture was
short, pointed and forceful
When I saw the burning missions in
the city of Pekin,'' he said in his closing
remarks, land how the fury spent its
force blindly without concentrations or
proper leadership, was tempted to think
Of how little value are material things
China is a giant, but still a slumbering
one, on the point of awakening, as it
were. There is much cnat is bad in the
country but, contrary to the general be-
lief here there is also much that is
good.''
Mr.. Ewing devoted most of his lecture
to a description of Pekin and the things
that took place during the time Of the
Boxer troubles. The mission where was
barricaded and was we'll guarded First
there was a ten foot wall around It.
Next to the wall on the inside sharp
pegs were driven into the ground and
back of these were placed barb wire
fences. Back of the fences a ditch had
been dug by the native Christians, and
besides this came another wire fence.
E. B. Haskell, who has been in Turkey
for over five years, told of the mission
work in that country. He said that the
missionaries there were meeting with
encouragement.
