WORK HAS BEGUN.

The Greater Part of the Stock for
the Athletic Park Has Been Sub
scribed.
Members of the Athletic Park associa-
ton spent yesterday afternoon at the
mayors office, discussing plans for the
construction of grand stand at the
new grounds in West st. Paul, but the
figures furnished by Architect Gilbert
were too large, and another set Will be
prepared and submitted to meeting of
the directors tomorrow afternoon.
II was stated that the subscriptions to
stock already aggregated $4,000, eXclu-
Siye of offers made by MeSSrS Hill ana
Stickney, and that there was no longer
any doubt that every penny OF the cap
ital stock, $4,000, would be pledged by
the end of this week.
QWork has begun on the grounds, con-
tracts having been awarded for filling
and grading the park, for which $4,000
cart loads of earth will be required, and
the construction of the grand stand can
be inaugurated as soon as the carpen-
tiers are ready. According to the ideas
of the directors, the grand stand VIII
seat comfortably in folding chairs,
1.5O0 SPECTATORS, and with open seats
fully 1000 persons can be accommo-
dated. About $4,000 will be required
to put the enterprise in shape for the
ensuing season, of which $1,000
will he necessary to make the first pay
ment on the real estate, $4,000 will be
devoted to the grand stand and the re-
mainder will be distributed in erecting
the necessary fencing, rolling and sod
ding the grounds and putting in the
chairs. OF this amount $4,000 will be
realized from the 40 per cent first pay
ment OH the stock and $1,000 for rental
by the ST. Paul Base Ball club, so that
the question of funds is no longer re-
garded as perplexing one. Several OF
those who have subscribed for stock
announced their willingness to take
more if necessary to make the boom
permanent, and altogether the outlook
for an attractive pleasure resort is most
encouraging.
After the plans for the stand and
fencing have been submitted to the di-
rectors and approved they will invite
proposals from the leading builders of
this city for the work of construction,
and it is expected that by next Monday,
at the farthest, that part OF the work
will be under way.
