The Board ot Trustees of tho publle
library last night rescinded Its acUon In
selecting the Shugart property on Sixth
street and First avenue as the sits for tha
Carnegie library building, and In Its place
ohose the W. H. Pusey property at ths
southeast corner of Willow avenue and
Pearl street. Tha nine members of the
board were all present and It required six
formal ballots before ths site was selected.
The site selected last night has a frontage
on Willow avenue facing Baylies park of avenue, concrete base; Worth street, be
126 feet and a frontage on Pearl street of I tween ' Third snd Fourth streets, brick
1 f.pt Th. eltv will aecura it for 22 000 base; Tenth avenue, from Fourth street to
135 feet. The city w) "cur it ior .uw. j k entran con.rete base; alley south
which Includes the brick building now on It. I of Broadway, between Main and Fourth
The site which has finally been selected street, concrete base; alley north of
by the library board waa from the first
the choice of a large portion of the people
of this city.
When the board convened Attorney A. T.
Fllcklnger, on behalf of E. L. Shugart,
stated If the board was not willing to
accept the title to his property he would,
In the public Interest, withdraw his propo
sition and place no obstacle In the way of
the board selecting another site If it felt
so disposed. In view of this statement
from Mr. Shugart's attorney, Trustee
Bender moved that the action of the board
authorising the closing of the deal for the
Shugart- property be rescinded. Trustees
Balrd and Cleaver resisted the passage of
the motion and Insisted that the board
ought, to stand by Ha selection of the
Shugart site In view of the fact that Judge
Reed had given It as his opinion that the
title wss good. The' motion carried,
Trustees Cleaver, Balrd and Scott voting
against It.
The board then proceeded to select a site
by ballot, the first ballot being Informal
and resulting as follows: W. H. M. Pusey
site, 4; N. M. Pusey sits, 2; Dr. Woodbury
sits, 2; Shugart site, 1.
The first formal ballot resulted: W. H M.
Pusey site, 4; N. M. Pusey site, 2; Wood
bury site, 2. At the close of the third
ballot, which resulted the same aa the
first. Trustee Stewart lnteiposed a motion
to the effect that the title to any property
selected must be shown to be good to the
satisfaction of a majority of the board.
He explained this was to prevent a recur
rence of the Shugart site controversy, and
the motion carried. N. M. Pusey addressed
the board on behalf of tha offer of his
property and Judge McGee was permitted
to do the same for Mrs. W. H. M. Pusey.
The fourth and fifth ballots showed no
change In 'the vote, but the sixth ballot
settled the matter, the W. H. M. Pusey
site receiving six votes to three for the
N. M. Pusey property,
The board adopted resolution -thanklnc
ing his offer' and ' thereby removing all
obstacles to the board selecting another
site.
Before adjourning the board decided to
ask the city to sanction the levy ot an
additional mill, as the amount thus raided
will, the board beltevee, be required to Ax
up the grounds around the building.
The annual election of officers resulted
In the re-election of M. F. Rohrer ae presi
dent and J. J. Stewart as secretary. Mrs.
Mary E, Dalley was reappointed librarian
and Miss Sherman and Mrs. Black first
and second assistants, respectively.

DO NOT LIKE MOUNT PLEASANT
Dipsomaniacs from Pottawattamie
Cematr Decline f Stay la
. tha Town.
The sheriff's office received word yester
day that W, W. Langdon, another member
ot the Pottawattamie county dipsomaniac
colony at tho state hospital for Inebriates
at Mt Pleasant, bad made his escape.
Langdon makee the eighth of the ten male
patients committed from this county who
has made Ills escape. .
Since the new law providing for the
commitment of chronic Inebriates to Mt.
Pleasant - went Into effect ten male and
two female patients have been sent there
from this county. All but one were com
mitted from this city. Ot the eight who
made their escape seven are still at large.
Andrew Carlson, who escaped March 14
and returned to this city, wss taken back
Sunday by Sheriff Cousins, who also took
Thomas Ryan of Neola, committed Satur
day by Judge Wheeler for eighteen months.
The following who made their escape
are still at large: Zeph Hughea. who made
his fourth escape June SO; Otto Roderick,
who escaped July 8; George Kemey of
voce, who escaped June 24; Even Fegley,
Who esoaped May 26; Henry Orote, who
escaped June 19; W. W. Langdon, who
escaped July 10. and Captain W. A. Hayes,
Who escaped July S.
Investigation made Deputy Sheriff
Qroneweg shows that patients do not
escape from the hospital at Cherokee
nearly so frequently as they do from Mt
Pleasant. The dlstanoe from Council Bluffs
to Cherokee Is only 120 miles, while to
Mt. Pleasant It Is KiS, miles. Why the State
Board of Control ordered that Inebriates
from this county should be sent to Mt.
Pleasant Instead of Cherokee, thue Increas
ing the cost of transportation ot such
patients materially. Is not understood by
the eounty suthorlttes, and It la likely that
the matter will be brought to the attention
of the Board of Supervisors at Its next
meeting, with a view to making an effort
to have the state board change the order
so that patients from Pottawattamie county
qan om seni 10 vneroseo.

The plat Died by the Nebraska Telephone
company showing the streets and alleys It
Intended occupying for Its underground
conduits, which had been approved by the
city engineer and city electrician, was ac
cepted, with cne exception, the company
being required to occupy only one side ot
the alley north of Broadway Instead of
alternating from one side to the . other.
Relative to the matter of extending the
water main In the southern part of the
city, Alderman McDonald reported that the
waterworke company was willing to put
In (,400 feet of mains south of Sixteenth
avenue and west of Seventh street provided
the city would pay for nine hydrants, this
number being half of what the company
could demand under Its contract with the
city. Alderman McDonald explained that
this extension of the mains would serve
about 2,000 people and urged that the offer
of the waterworks company be accepted.
As there Is a question of whether the city
can legally contract for further hydrant
rentals In the present condition of the
water fund, the matter was referred back
to the committee to make a further report
on this phase of the question.
The request of the carnival company
that it be permitted to occupy the same
streets as laat year under practically the
same conditions was granted.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, July .-(Spoclal.-The
etate executive council today took up the
matter of land assessments fer the purpose
of effecting an equalisation aa between the
counties of the state. The council, for the
first time in Its history, was confronted
with a large number of county officials from
over the state asking to be heard as to why
their counties should not be Incraaaed or
changed, and in explanation ot the wide
dler-4panclee which appear In the aseeso
m.e.t returns. Representatives of Bremer,
Allamakee, Blackhawk, Clinton. Jackson.
Fayette and some other xountlee, appeared
before the board and were allowed to pre
sent their Views and others will be heard
tomorrow. The statements made to the
council indicate that the task of arriving at
correct conclusions 'will not be an easy one
for the state offiolala. From these repre
sentatives and from different ones ths coun
cil learned that cn the whole farm lands
are not worth a cent more In the market
now then they were two years sgo; that
there Is a vast amount of very bad land In
the counties; that there Is much sandy and
rocky land and a great deal of rough lnnd
covered with brush that la untlllable; that
this year especially many acres have not
been touched with the plow; that there are
"sink holes" In some counties which affect
the value of all the land, and that the
transfers made last year do not represent
actual valuer, but are higher than actual
values, and that much land has been sold
and disposed of at prices much above Its ac
tuol worth. In short, It Is represented to
the state officers that after all Iowa land 1
not very good land as a whole and that as
sessments have been made dreadfully high.
The council le armed with a greater mass
of information than ever before and espe
cially valuable will be the statements from
different counties as- to the comparative
values In all surrounding counties. The
council will spend two days hearing argu
ments on the land assessments and then
turn to railroad assessments and reports.
and the entire work of equalising and of
assessing will be completed at the same
time. The real estate assessments show
an Increase of over 2200.000.000, but some
counties have not Increased their assess
ments at all. The council will probably in
crease some and lower a very few where it
la apparent there has been too high an as
eessment.

W. H. Scott of Ban county has brought
