TIE SOUTH SIDE PARK,

The South Division Of Chicago is the
most important sud weslthy pars Of the
city. The g1ea. bulk Of the business
Is dcne on tie South Side, and
where tie business Of q city Is done the
residence portion Of the city will ALWAYS
be. unltss there arc extraordinary cir
cumstauccs 10 prevent 1t. This his hIsh-
czso been The case IN Chicago, and the
mcst tssi1Ab'e residence property in the
city, ard that which has sold for the
highest prices, has been On the South
Side. This is very great advantage to
the South Sscc, because, nGxs TO the best
business property in city, the bsss resi-
de1ee properly always Eells for the
highest price. Nov any movement by
which the precedence which South Chi
caEo has in residence property, should be
taken aWay from her, would dc vast snd
untold dsmsge to that side OF the city,
The mCremeAt, which is begun and car
riea on with so much energy and bold
ness, to prsvent the locaiion OF tho South
SIDE park, ia done tor this purpose. The
object is to take away from Sou.h Chi
ego the advantage it has in possessing
the best ground Tor residences in the
city, and giving nll that immense adya1-
tage to the North SIDE. L seems to Us
that The owners Of property on the South
Side cannot be 50 stupid, AMI SO blind to
their own plata interests, as 10 let such
damaging attempt succeed. ltisavc1y
heavy b.oH aimed directly st the supe-
rior advantage and prosperity ofthe South
Side. lttsn bold and uudissnised efTortto
rob the South Side of the prestige Of
being the best place for residence in the
city, and giving that great advantage for
all time 10 ccme to the North Side.
We hear THAT the Norlh Side owners
Of real estate are raising large sums Of
money, and leaving no effort untried to
defeat the South Site Park bill. And
they show sseir shrewdaczs by 80 doing,
for It wall be worth millions 10 the North
Side, to make 1t the residence part Of The
city and tor the South slda to lose this
superiority In residence property will be
more damage to It . thousand told than
all the park will cost H,w much that
damage will be we can estimate in de-
gree by looking 1t the value OF residence
properly near parks in other cities.
Trere were safes Reported last week OF
lots on and near Central Park, in New
York. md they brought $4,000 to
$4,000 each anti. being ten to the acre,
this amounts from 100000 to ea5o, 900

Smooth as billiard tnhle spread the lawn
Frequentcd by tho carly y-rlslng lark,
where dcwy brilliants spnrklcd In tho dawn,
And glow worms III their lanterns In tho dark
But now nBtir with many an eager group,
Brisk youth and ell - black coat and muslin
blcnt,
Urging the rolling hall from hoop to hoop,
Or taking light rcfrcshmcntB In tho tent;
Till the soft vcspcr star, soon after eight,
Cave warning OF another days decline,
And sent lib laughing through the garden gate
TO lobster salad and til. beaded wine;
o happy hour when first learnt the game
And called Matilda by her Christian name.
