Now such battledoor and shuttlecock
treatment of the park management cannot
be endorsed by any sensible and intelligent
person. But the worse feature of the af-
fair is the miserable position the Girard
Estate people have taken. They have dis
criminated against the park management.
The land of the estate is tkickly dotted
with people who are genuine "squatters,"
and who not only pay no rent, but also
run liquor shops Another part Of the
land is common scene of Sunday base
ball games, yet the estate officials fail to
raise voice.

Heber S. Thompson, engineer for the Girsrd

and declared, 1T is an outrage to take
possession of my property withcut my con-
sent" Thompson then notified the Board
OF City Trusts that the park people had
taken charge Of the grounds without his
consent. Under this report the Board
ordered the park people to vscste the
grounds and decided not to graft lease.

Then Thompson reelected and ne told the

consider the matter. The park people did
go ahead again, but coon learned that
Major Thompson could not get the Board
to reconsider the snalter, as he thought he
could easily, and there was no other course
lett open but to vscate the grounds.

The method of obtaining leases from the
Girsrd Estate is to first get permission to
occupy the land from the parties who lease
the ground for colliery purposes. The
next step is TO secure permission from E.
Q. Wagner, the assistant superintendent
for the Girsrd Estate, and he refers the
application to the Board of City Trusts.

What else does the Girard Estate do for
our people2 Nothing good. They took
from us the only summer pleasure grounds
in this valley under the pretence that the
ground was needed as a place for dumping
rock, when there was other ample territory
near at hand. Efforts to make up for the
loss of the old Columbia Park by establish
ing grounds on other parts of the Estate
have failed twice and now il seems that
there is nothing that can be done until the
Girsrd Estate become really philsnthropie.

The door leading from the reception room to
the young lawyers private Office was not quite
closed, yet he no doubt thought it was, says the
Chicago Times.
A gentleman calling on business heard voices
in the next room and seated himself in a chair
near the door and awaited his turn. AS he in
nocently sat there he heard something Ike this
amid the clicking of typewriting machine:
"Mr. Gushing, Pigston, Suem, Kansas-you

Then the waiting man grew weary and went
away wondering what the man in Kansas would
think when he got such a letter.
