the unimproved portion OF the park lay
in a state OF nature, and In an ugly state
at that The sand that ha been washed
IN ON the shore for centuries by the re-
curing storms of winter had in turn
been covered with scdmentary deposit
from the surrounding high land, and, in
all probability, at one time stood for
many years andcr water. Tho conse-
ouence was that n layer OF rich, black
loan covers portions OF the ground TO
the depth of from six inches to three
feet.
This deposit conformed generally to
the form OF the sand dunes upon which
IL was deposited, and the result was n
somewhat rolling and humpy bit of
coast, covered In clumps with scrub oak
The problem was to level and grade this
ground witoIt covering the loan with
sand. The only practicable plan was to
uncover the sand and save the loan. To
that end plows were put TO work abent

In the accomplishment of this work q
force of as high as 500 men has at times
been employed. In addition 10 the men
who have been employed on the shovel
gangs and at the scrapers, and on the
trains, dredgers have been constantly at
work on the artificial canal mt the north
side Of the ground. This canal was dug
several years ago by the Park Commits
sonerS, and was, at the time it was com
pleted, about eight feet deep. But the
sand thereabout is Of n shifting and un-
stable nature and gradually slipped into
the canal, until il was Swallowed so that
the dredges cou not at first enter the
mouth Of the canal.
The Worlds Fair Board determined to
extend the canal through the grounds,
quite to the center, so as TO form an or
namental island. and transform Il part
of the plan into miniature Venice.
According to the original plans, two of
the main buildings are TO be separated

country. " / am a farmer, one of

with dry, hacking cough. This
grew worse every day, until I had
TO seek relief consulted DR.. Dixon
who has since died, and he told me
to get a bottle of Boschee's German
Syrup. Meantime my cough grew
worse and worse and then the Grippe
came along and l caught that also
very severely. My condition then
compelled rae to do something. L
got two bottles of German Syrup. I
began using them, and before taking
much of the second, bottle, / was

In one or two instances these groves are
situated on rising ground, which will
thus be permitted to remain at It's pres
ent grade. IL may here be mentioned
that the entire park grade is to be left
or brought up TO four feet above
what is known as city grade.
The Park Board has recently protected
the Lake Front with u line of piling and
paved the beach for a space of 100 feet
with Belgian block. The top OF the tier
is about eight to ten feet above the
grade of the far ground, and will be ter

A large number of mon are housed
and fed on the ground. These men
como from Chicago for the most part,
and are paid at the rate of - cents an
hour for ten hours work per day.
Transfers, who furnish their own teams
get 40 cents an hour, or - day All
the men are encouraged to live on the
grounds and take their meals at one or
the regular boarding places established
there. There are two boarding bosses

woman known as Mrs. Glenn
The McArthurs. who have the grading
contract, during their years of contract
ing in various parts Of this country and
Canada, have surrounded themselves
with large number of small contrac-
tors, such as clearinghouse keepers,
teamstcrs and such. These boarding
house keepers are under the control OF
the contractors To the extent that they
have to submit to an inspection and to
keep up such table as is agreed upon.
The rate Of board is set by the contrac-
tors. and must be adhered to. Board
and lodgings is secured by the men at
the rate Of So. so week. The men get
three meals a day and are housed in
tents or. better, canvas houses, fitted
up with hunks. The boarding master is
obliged to furnish the men with bedding.
The men are as comfortable as circum-
stances will permit and while some
growl the majority assert that the board
which they get is better than they could
get elsewhere for the same money. They
get their breakfast at u o'clock in the

the most determined bidder, fot when
a woman will she will, and that's
equally true when she sets her mind
on getting bargain at an auction sale
as it is when she wants to have the
last word with her husband The
women who attend auction sales of any
kind are neither very rich nor very
poor. They are from the comfortable
class. The women enjoy shopping and
we like TO see them at our sales, for we
know the prices, and OF course it fol-
lows the commissions will be higher
than if their men folks did the bidding
..Some women have perfect mama
for attending auction sales. They will
go to a sale in Maiden lane in the
morning and to another in the dry
goods districts in the afternoon. They
invariably display good judgment in
selecting the newest designs and fash
ions, but we have them when 1t comes
to prices, for never met q woman yet
who would let a man outbid her for an
article she had set her mind upon. {"

How an Ohio Man Obtained Sleep.

Sunday evening two young men re-
tired in one of the principal hotels and
went to sleep. One of these guests
was from Ohio, the other a genuine
rontiersman from Dakota They slept
until 2 a. m. Sunday, when they were
awakened by couple of registering
youths who occupied an adjoining
room, and who were hilariously drunk.
The youths shouted and sang and
cursed until guests all around COM
menced to protest; and then they
shouted and cursed and sang all the
louder.
The Dakota man rang for a porter
and sent him to quiet the unruly youths,
but with no other effect. Then the
Ohioan arose, tied suspender around
his waist, rolled up the sleeves of his
night shirt, and walked to the door
whence came the riotous sounds. He
knocked, and one of the drunken fell
lows opened it. The Ohio man didn't
stop to talk. He charged into that
room, belted one youth in the neck,
knocking him on top of the bed.
Quick "a a fash he seized the other,
and hurled him bodily across the first.
Then he pounded their heads together
while he regained his breath, and told
them that ii they woke him up again.
'he would come in and throw both OF
EN- through the window He slept in
peace until breakfast time. -Phitddel-
