The Skagway water s stem IS all completed except the setting Of i've hydrants and the making of the tests This will be completed by Monday or Tuesday. The mains have all been laid and last night the connection was made with the tank on the hill above the railroad shops. The tank was smptied and cleaned out yesterday, but since that time it has been pumped full of water.
 Today the water has been running from the spring near Twentieth avenue for the purpose of flushing out the To- inch main. Tonight, probably, it will be turned into the finch mains and laterals for the purpose of flushing them.
 If present plans shall not be changed the water will be turned into the mains from the tank on the hill Monday. This will be permitted to run through the mains for time to complete the work of washing them out, after which the service pipes will be connected.
 Early next week there will be a test made asceatain the pressure with the spring at Twentieth avenue as a supply and also with the sgpply from the tank.
 There are still some finch laterals to be put in on on Sixth avenue, but they will be put in by the city itself, as the piping has not arrived for that purpose.

Nesperce Population Sos

The Herald has had a represent
alive in the field this week taking
the census of the town. We find
the actual bona hde population
of Nezperce to be S68. This in
cludes the residents of Mowry ad-
dition, which number 48. This is 4
substantial growth when you con-
slider the disadvantages under which
we labor by being an inland town,
and the fact also that our fine
public school system has only been
inaugurated two years. This latter
advantage alone will increase our
population to 1900 during the next
two wears.
