DEPUTY DIDN'T SEE
Therefore He Should Not Assess Her
Piano-The Argument Of
a Woman.
Taxpayer Before Board Of Equali-
cation Objects to "Spiteful'
Neighbors Work. ~-

Frankly confessing that her piano had
escaped taxation for several years, a
woman appeared before the city board Of
equalization this morning to ask that the
instrument be stricken from her assess
ment. She said a spiteful neighbor had
called the attention Of a deputy assessor
to the omission of the piano from the re-
turn. She was we'll dressed woman and
gave ample evidence of living in pros
perity, yet she complained of an assess
ment Of $175, which would make her taxes
less than 50 per year.
The equalizers sat aghast as the woman
ratified off her story. well take the
matter under consideration. madam -
said Chairman Adams politely.
Six formal complaints properly signed
and sworn to occupied the attention of
the city board Of equalization this morn
ing. There was not much doing as the
public had not yet awakened to the reali-
zation of the fact that their chance to
kick" had come.
Alderman Adams, as chairman of the
council committee on taxes, becomes
president of the board Of equalization.
Deputy Assessor F. E. Nye was elected
clerk of the board, and then the equal
izers waited for business, but spent most
of their time discussing the bond issue
and committee work generally.
One of the compliments was the agent
OF a brewery Which controls several bars
in the city. He had returned the values
at the same figures as those carried upon
the brewing company's books and this
was not customary, he said. The alder
men looked incredulous when he gave his
ideas on the assessed value of the saloon
figures, and when he was gone, all ex-
pressed themselves as unconvinced. The
assessments will not be reduced unless it
is hown that they are higher than on other
aloons, which Assessor Minor says is not
the case.

HASN'T HEARD OF IT
Bishop Joyce Doesn't Believe G. E.
Amalgamation Plan Is Thoroly
Practical.
He Is President of the Epworth
League and Speaks With
Some Authority. ...-.

1t is hardly among the probabilities that
the Epworth league will accept the pro-
posal to work for the amalgamation of'the
Christian Endeavor society, the Baptist
Young Peoples union and the league. The
movement was launched at Christian En-
deavor convention No. 5 yesterday at
Denver.
The president of the Epworth league Of
the Methodist Episcopal church is Bishop
I. w. Joyce of Minneapolis. Bishop Joyce
who is on the eve of his departure for the
International convention Of the Epworth
league at Detroit, said this morning that
there was nothing in the proposition.
Each Of the three organizations, said
the bishop, Stands on its own merits and
for it's own denomination, the Christian
Endeavor for the Congregational church,
the Baptist Young Peoples union for the
Baptist church, the Epworth league for
the Methodist Episcopal church, and for
the Methodist Episcopal church south and
for the Methodist church of Canada.
'"This movement originated at the con-
vention in Denver and we know nothing
Of it,
Indicating the strength of the Epworth
league, Bishop Joyce gave the enrolment
of the society in the Methodist Episcopal
church at 100000 with 100000 subscrib-
ers to the Epworth Herald, the organ of
the society. The Methodist Episcopal
church south has the Epworth league as
the organization for the young people and
the Methodist church Of Canada also.
Bishop Joyce leaves tomorrow night for
the international convention at Detroit.
He will stop in Chicago one day and will
arrive In Detroit for the early Thursday
morning meeting preliminary to the con
vention. He will return in a few days to
resume his work, which recently has been
largely the dedication Of churches of the
denomination. ..-..

OUTING ASSN IS RUSHED
Many Little Ones Being Taken te
the Country-Some Specially
Interesting Cases.

This is the rush season Of the outing
association, and every day is occupied in
getting little groups or large parties,
sometimes several of them, off to the
country. At the close of Saturdays office
hours at the courthouse office of the as
ISOLATION, the records showed that 1870
children had exchanged crowded city
homes for the freedom Of the country.
Nearly all of those have gone in the last
ten days. Not all will return in two
weeks, altho none will have shorter
time. Cases have been frequent of chill
dren remaining long as their parents
would permit, and several have found per-
manent homes thru their summer outings.
One young girl has already spent three or
four months in the home of her benefac-
tors, who would gladly adopt her, but her
mother has not yet given. her, consent,
altho the child still remains in the
country. ..--
It is not alone the good children who
find the way into the hearts of their coun-
try friends. One boy who was pro-
nounced by the brakeman Of the train
on which the party went out, a tough
one,'' was asked for by a family who
wanted a boy of about II on a farm. In
that environment he became wholly
different type and has remained for four
years. He has been so exemplary that
citation guest, stipulated that he wanted a
boy as nice as the so-called ''tough one"
Country life has been his salvation, and
it is that Of many another boy wholly out
of his element in city surroundings. .
The association has an especially inter-
esting case now on its hands. The Union
Mission district nurse has two patients
in need of country and country fare tc
hasten their convalescence. One, young
girl, is to return to her home in Norway as
soon as she is able to stand the journey
and others are to manage this for her, but
she is without funds to take the needed
outing. The two invalids can go away
together but it will be necessary to pay
a small price for their board. The asso-
citation has undertaken to provide for
them and it would be especially glad to
have contributions to meet this particula,
case.

CHANGES ON THE M.&ST,L.
Promotions Made to Fill the Va
cancy Caused by ]. L. Blake's
Resignation.

j. L. Blake's resignation as assistant
general freight agent of the ST. Louis
road has resulted in several changes eff
fecttve July 20. Two or three rather
pyrotechnical advances have been made
lately by the two men affected-C. P.
Eastman and Raymond Kelly. Mr.. East
man, who only a week ago was made
commercial agent at ST. Paul, succeeds
to Mr.. Blake's position, and Raymond
Kelly, who recently was made flour freight
contracting agent at Minneapolis, will go
to ST. Paul as commercial agent.
Mr.. Blake becomes general manager of
the Newton &, Northwestern, with head
quarters at Boone Iowa. This road, when
completed, will be 125 miles long and is
of considerable Importance already.
Fourteen years ago Mr.. Blake became
associated with the st. Louis road. He
was first agent at Angus, Iowa, later
travelling freight agent thru Iowa and
Minnesota, headquarters at Minneapolis.
Since that time, as commercial agent at
Minneapolis for eight years, he has been
intimately in touch with the jobbers and
other shippers Of the two cities BY a
pleasing personality and quick grasp
of the needs Of patrons, he secured a strong
hold on the business community. Last
summer Mr.. Blake was made assistant
general, freight agent.

NELSON has IDEAS.
Former City Physician Prepared to
Give Charter Commission
Some Hints.
Belives Board Of Corrections and
Charities Should Be Taken
Out of Politics.

Former City Physician Henry S. Nelson is
prepared to go before the city charter COM
mission at its next meeting and offer some
suggestions regarding the organization of the
BOARD OF corrections and charities which. he
believes, may be Of value to the CITY DR.
Nelson has had considerable experience with

perience may be Of value to the charter com
mission. 80
II am out of office and out of nolitics ,,
says DR.. Nelson "and do not want 10 annear
IN the position OF one who would force his
suggestions upon the charter commissioners
But do believe that change for the bet
ter could be made in the organization OF the
board OF corrections and charities.
Take Board From Politics,
"Promarily the board needs to be taken out
or politics. AS at present constituted it con-
sists OF five members, two of whom are APP
pointed every two years to serve four years
each, the mayor, as ex-officio member, being
number five on the board. While the present
city charter provides that not more than two
members 5itn1 OF the board may be of the same po-
new members upon accession to office has no
difficulty in getting a majority, including
hlm llse.I and the two members he appoints.
Wltnout reference to any particular mayor
l can say that the present system is bad,
because the board becomes a part of the
party machine which spends from s10O, 900 to
Sloo'ooo OF the city's money annually.
Increase Size Of Board.
1T would be my idea that the new charter
board to seven members, including the MAYOR
VINO would continue to be a member ex-of-
nclo, and that one member be appointed by
me mayor each year, each member to serve
SIX years. 1t seems to me that if this sys-
tem were followed out it would obviate the
present lack OF harmony incident to having
Two new members coming in at once. It
would also make it impossible, or nearly SO,

should serve two terms in succession And
IN that case, it is a safe guess to say that
When !, mayor is good enough to be elected

members OF the board absolutely dictate the

BONDS ARE ASSURED
Twenty-three Aldermen Will Vote
for the Four Per Cent Issue
Tonight.
Bridge Bonds Are Included t,
Insure the Budgets
Passing.

Aldermen Jones, Rand and Chatfeld are
in the city to-day and announce their in
tentlon Of attending the council meeting
this evening Alderman Holmes, chair
man Of the paving committee, says that
the presence Ct these three insures the
passage Of a resolution directing the proper
city officers to dispose of $500, 900 in bonds
the latter to draw 4 per cent interest. It
is taken for granted that Aldermen s.
E. Adams and Westphal will oppose the
issuance of the bonds, but with twenty
three sure votes and only twenty-five re-
quired, the promoters Of civic improve
ments feel perfectly safe.
The proposed issue will consist Of $175,-
coo revolving fund bonds, 5000 improve
ment fund bonds and $4,000 for bridge
purposes The latter Is concession to
the North Minneap polls bridge faction,
which has votes to defeat the whole prop
osition if it wants to-. and can, therefore,
dictate terms.
While there is nothing of Importance
before the council this evening, it Is an
adjourned regular meeting, and any sub
ject may be taken up. The special COM
mittee which was directed to inquire into
the necessity for establishing pounds for
estray animals and appointing poundmas-
ters, is expected to report m favor of
three or four poundmasters, altho the
ravages from estray cattle have not caused
a great deal of trouble.

NO WELCOME FOR KING
Dublin Board Of Aldermen Defeats
Motion by a Vote of
40 to 81.

Dublin, July 13.-Wi,d scenes TO-DAY
marked the second debate by the munich
pal corporation on the question Of pre-.
senting an address of welcome to King
Edward on his arrival in Dublin
The public gallery was filled long before
the meeting began and the huge crowd
which was shut out subsequently, battered
down the doors in its efforts to get in.
Mayor Harrington made a violent speech
against the address and compared the ma
tionalists who favor it to men who sold
their parliament"
Mrs. Mcbride was among the demon
strators who continued the uproar until
the lord mayor finally called il, the police,
who cleared the hall.
After a stormy sitting of four. hours
the motion in favor of the address was
defeated, 40 to 81.

TROLLEY TO ANOKA
H. G. Hanke and E. J.. Forster as
County Board for Right to
Use Roads.
The Promoters Expect to Spend
More Than 100000 on
the Line

Henry c. Hanke and Edwin J. Fors-
ter have petitioned the board of county
comm ssioners for a franchise allowing
them to construct an electric railway
from Minneapolis thru Robbinsdale, Os-
SEQ and Champlin to Anoka. The matter
was referred to a committee Of the whole
and will be thoroly discussed and inves-
tigated before action is taken. Some OPP
position is felt and spirited contest may
develop in the board, but the probabilil-
ties are largely in favor Of granting the
franchise
Plans for trolley line to Anoka have
been under consideration many times be-
fore but until the present effort have
never progressed far past the 'hot
air. stage. The present enterprise rep
resented by Messrs. Hanke and Foster is
backed by plentiful local and foreign capt.
tai and its promoters are in earnest. It
is estimated that the line, fully equipped,
will cost between 100000 and s4O0 900
and the gentlemen interested expect to
incorporate as soon as they secure the re-
quired permission from the county COM
missioners.
The gentlemen above named prepared a
resolution granting them the rights de-
sired and this was presented this morning
to the board. This document provides for
the commencement of the line within
one year from the time of the passage of
the resolution and the completion within
twenty -four months. Mr.. Hanke states
that it is the intention to secure the ma
terials this fall and rush the work as fast
as possible from the time of securing the
franchise.
It is provided that the right Of way
asked for shall not cover any part Of the
present wagon road except at certain
places where the crossings shall be re-
quired. but shall be constructed at one
side or the other thereof It is the in
tention of the promoters to connect with
the Twin City Rapid Transit company S
line now running to Robbisdale.
The plan is heartily indorsed by several
of the commissioners. who state that the
country people who will be affected by the
line are unanimously in favor of it and
that it will mean great deal to the farm
ers and the residents of the adjoining
towns as well as to Minneapolitans The
question as to the right of the commits
sioners to grant a right of way thru the
two incorporated towns Of Osseo and
Champlin was raised this morning, but
was answered by Mr.. Hanke, who stated
that they did not expect the commission
ers to give any rights which they did not
have and that the company believed nc
trouble would be experienced from the
village governments.

WAR ON BAD HABIT.
The Health Department Says Store
Sweepings Must Not Go Into
the Streets.
Merchants Will Be Notified and the
Law Hereafter Will Be
Enforced.

Store sweepings must not be pushed
into the streets any more. The law
plainly prohibits it and now the law will
be enforced. There has been confer
ence between Mayor J. c. Haynes Chief
of Police E. ]. Conroy and Health Com
missioner P. M. Hall and it has been de-
cided to enforce the law to the letter.
Every merchant, particularly in the down
town district, will be asked by letter to
observe the law and if the gentle re-
minder from the health department does
not have the desired effect the police will
show the offenders the way to the police
court
The following circular will be mailed to
the merchants tomorrow:

avenue and other retail streets have gotten into
front sidewalks during the hours between half
past seven and nine o'clock each morning This
cause of comment by many citizens over and
over again. People, passing down the street in
lat1ons Of the day before swept upon the walk as
they pass, and this dust and dirt is inhaled and
the pedestrians participate in the daily house
This habit is but a relic Of our village days

not be swept into the street. Sidewalks should
be cleaned with broom and water and not be
''dry swept. The abatement Of this annoying
nuisance should commend itself to all public
spirited citizens.
In this connection your attention is called to
section 81 Of the general sanitary ordinance Of
the city, which reads as follows
No owner Of, agent for, or occupant of any
house, store, hotel, restaurant nor
any other person, shall accumulate, throw or de-
posit, or cause to be thrown or deposited, or
shall pass allow to be passed into upon
any street, alley, lot, vacant place, sidewalk,
catchbasin, manhole. gutter, store
sweepings, rubbish, refuse, ashes - or
any other nauseous unwholesome substance,

The department of health desires your hearty
cooperation in the abatement of this nuisance,
believing it only necessary that attention should
be directed to the matter in order that the side
walks in the retail business districts may at all
times present a clean and tidy appearance.
