There does not c1ist the city tLa! can boast
Of more pleasant promenade than our Lake
Park. In tue GUNNER nights, tie moon shining
brightly, and the cool, refreshing lake breeze
gently blowing. i: is delightful. In the suumer
days, If it be hot, and the clouds obscure the
piercing sun, one delights iu strolliDg here, the
ait is so refreshing. If, on the contrary, the
rays Of old 60. be not Interrupted, one can end
more comfortable place in doors, and there,
though much ageins: his will, he must stay.
notwithstanding The tempting invitation Of the
lake air.
Ipresume that after reading the ahorc, any
one can perceive tlst the grand desideratum Of
the park is trees. Thisis the tree.planting sea-
son. Let rs hayeaa abundance ofthen planted
in this pleasant spot Immediately.

Classic CoScEx1s.-The last Concert Of the
Classical Series will be given tonight at the
briggs House, and as it will be the last oppor-
tunity this season to hear music Of that high
character, we hope to see full house. These
little if anything more than the expenses being
realized; it would be only an act Of justice to
the artists who hare SO perseyerinsly carried
through the series under obstacles, not easily
overcome, If the real lorers of music come ont
tonight in full force and give them ut least one
paying audience, that they may feel sufficient
encouragement to attempt something Of .he
same kind another SEASON.
The programme offered tonight is unusually
excellent, and will be rendered BY the very best
talent our city affords and Of which we may
we'll be proud. Mrs. Bandit aud Mr.. Me1ms will

Without desiring to trespas5 on the province
Of the architects, the suspicion of which somc-
times bas brought about most terrific results in
the pen.and.ink way, we may be permitted to
record our opinion then in many Of our new
blocks, and in raising of old ones, a grave mis-
take is committed to the injury Of the stores by
carrying the store floor too high above the side
walk. Let any one pass down the line Of the
retail establishments Of Broadway, New York,
and contrast the effect Of their almost sheer
leyel with the sidewalk, with too uany Of cur
best stores in Chicago which are carried from
twelve to fourteen inches ADORE. Here blocks
arc not uncommon where The rise from sidewalk
to the store entrance is three "steps-''
We contend that this is en injury to TIE
stores, without commensurate advantage to
the rest OF the building. We areawarc that the
basement fever is ut its full height, and any
sacrifice is being mad to tempt scmi-subterra-
ncous tenants; but there is a limit to Easements
eycn here. No population, not even our OWE,
car grow hair, or crave malt belerages amply
enough to warrant q barber shop or beer sa-
loon under every twenty-five feet Of front in
our best business centre, and in the ahsencc oi
/ such demand our landlords would d. better to
add all tbey can to the yaue of their stores, md
make this their prime object. It is foolish and
ronsensical to spoil o store we'll located, by 8
basement no one wants, and yet there are many
