JEFFERSON, TEX, June 25.-This
morning the south bound freight picked
up the mangled remains of a man about
four miles north of town. There were
no means by which his name could be
found out or anything about him. 1t
seems that he was stealing a ride when
he fell from the train, and was literally
cut to pieces,
One of the most brilliant affairs of the
season took place at the opera house last
night. 1t was Col. I. S. Bass eighth
annual ball to his school, and seldom
he's such an assemblage of beauty and
chivalry been gotten together. There
were visitors from all the neighboring
cities, and all pronounced it grand
success.

THE INCREASE or AuERICAN RESORrS.

THE INCREASE or AnEEICAN RESORTS.
The great increase in the number Of resorts
during the last fifteen years Is one Of the uOSt
marked features Of American social lite, and
has permanently modified the character of
Americans generally especially those who live
in cities and towns. We refrain from using
the qualifying adjective " summer" advised
w: for summer resorts are now fully cquacd.
if not outnunbcrcd by winter, spring and
autumn resorts. Indeed many oId-time sum
mcr resorts are now entering the lists as all
the year round resorts a proof that there is a
tendency on the part of the people to seek rest
and recreation at other times than summer.
The reasons for this tendency are not far to
seek. In the first place, the increase Of wealth
is rapidly producing leisure class whose mem
bcrs are able TO leave home at any time and
in the second place, so ncXhauStiblc are the
picturesque and climatic resources Of this coun-
try that they cannot all be enjoyed in the brief
season OF summer. Besides, many of them are
best enjoyed in other seasons than summer.
The South and the Pacific Coast, for instance
are naturally and obviously winter and spring
resorts and even the AdirondackS, charming
as they are in summer, are quite rs charming
in another way in winter. But il is not merely
the leisure classes who are learning 10 take
vacation at other times than summer. Many
business men are beginning To discover that
they can afford to drop business for "a short
time in winter in order 10 make trip down
South or To the Pacific Coast and others arc
willing 10 exchange their usual summer vaca-
ton for one in winter or spring This is
especially the case with those who are able to
move TO the suburbs for the summer such "A

eastbound rates from Chicago. and it became
more evident that the Interstate act gives Cana

crease in the number of resorts ana tne eX-
tension of the summer resort period, so as TO
make it coeval with the year, are undoubted
advantages For thereby ali tastes and tenn
peraments are suited, and better knowledge
of our magnificent country is promoted 1t
will also be a good thing if busy men of af-
fairs can be persuaded TO take short vacation
in winter as well as summer That Amerl-
cans as a rule, work too continuously Is UNI
doubtedly true. A slight extension of the
period of rest is therefore desirable from every
point of view
But we intmated that something might be
said against this tendency. We had in mind
the breaking up Of home life, for which it is
largely responsible Formerly people lived at
home all the year except during brief sum
mer vacation Now there are many families
who only live at home while getting ready to
90 TO some place else After making the round
of the summer resorts or the trip to Europe
they come back for few days to prepare for
an autumn soiourn in the country. After the
Christmas holidays they go South or to the Pa
cifc Coast. where they remain until it is time
TO come back to the spring resorts. the bad
effect which this constant fitting must have
on home life is apparent, not to speak of the
waste involved in the closing of so many
beautiful houses during the greater part of the
year The American home is the buwark of
the American people and any tendency which
mpars its moral influence is to be deplorcd.
1t is to be hoped that while Americans are
learning to appreciate more highly the beauties
of their country, they will not forget that after
all is said and done, there is no place like home.

THE BROOKLYN PARK SYSTEM.

Advocates of progressive municipal policy
in Brooklyn were greatly encouraged by the
passage of the Kennedy bill for the location
of new parks and public drives. The Gov
ernor has not yet signed the measure, but
Mayor Chaplin can undoubtedly influence him
to do so. The responsibility for its failure
will rest with the Mayor OF Brooklyn rather
than with the Governor Of the State. Ii is a
public measure unobjectiOnablc from the point
Of view of responsible home rule, and wholly
in accord with the enlightened and progressive
policy with which the Mayor has rather Ostcn-
tatiousy desired to be credited. Brooklyn is
destined within the next twenty years to enter
upon IA career of expansion by which its Dor
ders will be carried to Coney Island and
Jamaica The demands of the city of the near
future must be unerrngly diSccrned and an
ticpated before it is too late to meet the re-
quiremcnts of the coming generation. The
Fort Hamilton drive, capable of being made
one Of the most charming in the vicinity Of
New-York, and the enlargement of the park
system can be provided for if the commission
authorized by the Legislature be appointed
and enabled To recommend sites and outline
the pleasure grounds which will be needed in
the course of few years.
In any symmetrical system of parks for
Brooklyn the lands now owned by the city
adjacent to the old reservoir must inevitably
