some practical use? Can we afford any
 longer to keep 1t for play or parade
 ground? Away with aesthetic notions
 Let us look at it from the Gradgrind
 point of viewl What are beauty, free
 air swept spaces, dear associations, historic suggestions in comparison with
 hard. shrewd, sordid money-grabbing
 sense?
 Here Is a scheme for utilizing this un
 profitable grass-plot, turning 1t into
 gold mine, or into a Pactolian stream
 whose glittering sands should flow straight into the city treasury. In the first place, take down the fence. To be sure 1t cost nearly seven thousand dol lars, and though of many years stand ing is still substantial, handsome, and peculiarly appropriate to the location. But never mind that, Pull 1t down, or better, sell 1t at auction, to be removed by purchasers. Then extend Court street straight through to College, and thus divide the green into four parts. Widen the sidewalks on the four sides of the original square and pave on three remaining sides of the small CT squares. Diagonal paths should be 
 much valuable space. Now, on all sides of the original plot let the city erect rows of one story buildings suit able for small traders and sidewalk merchants. There should be fruit stands, news stands, ,boot-blacking 'em- poriums" and counters where the hum gry and thirsty may have their sp- petites satisfied at the lowest possible rates-beer, peanuts, tobacco, "all- hot" chowder, anything and every thing. These shanties or booths should be roughly constructed, in the cheap est possible manner, but with rents in inverse ratio to the cost of erection. Think of it. what an income! Inside this barrlcade of shops and stands there will remain four spaces, two at least of these to be let by the city at exorbitant rates at further source of revenue One of them will be in de- mand as a football or baseball field. On another there might be merry-go- | round and dance pavilion. On the third space might be erected a crema- tory for the city's garbage, and the | fourth will be needed as q dumping 1 ground. Or there might be wood | yard where wandering pilgrims may | earn a lodging and a breakfast by | chopping our prostrate elms into kind | lings. For of course the elms will have | to come down. And the churches? | Demolished, of course. But what are elms and what are churohes-to some | people? But among them please do not | number HILARY.

THE CHEAT ooYFERENop.

The people of New Haven will have a grand opportunity during the next few days to learn about the organized and systematic efforts that are being made in this country and in other countries to help those who need help and to diminish the need of help. They will be astonished by the extent and the mag nitude of the work that Is being done and they will be impressed by the abil- ity and the sincerity of those who are doing it. The opening session of the great conference last evening gave promise of what is to come. MT. Paine's address was full of interest, wisdom and practical and stimulating suggestion. And the reception which followed it was full of friendliness and pleasant thought and talk
 The people of New Haven will enjoy the presence and the doings of their visitors. And they will hope that the visitors will enjoy their stay in New Haven The city Is in its most beauti- ful state, and if the weather is fine both the city and its surroundings will be found very pleasing and interesting by those who go about among them. And they will everywhere find a hearty vel come

current of electricity, which Is general ed by a small dynamo on the locomotive of the approaching train, and which es- tablishes a connection between the track and the air brakes on the train. As soon as the circuit is broken, the valve controlling the air brakes is re- leased, and the brakes are set just as the engineer might set them. The cur rent of electricity leaving the en- zine virtually goes ahead of the train to the next section of track, stopping the train in case the track Is not safe. If there is no danger, the current locks all switches and drawbridges in the section over which the train is about to enter, so that they cannot be opened until the train has passed, after which they may be used as usual until another train approaches.
 Some people have been afraid that electricity wouldn't be as safe as steam on railroads. If this invention works as it is expected to it will apparently be a great deal safer.

4 B7CTCEE CONUNDRUM.

The legal status of the bicycle is not yet thoroughly defined, though certain New Haven gentlemen doubtless think that rapid progress toward it's thorough
 definition has been made within the last
 few days. It has been pretty we'll es- tablished that the bicycle is a vehicle
 and that the law of the load applies
 to it as to other vehicles. But many
 other questions await legal settlement
 before the bicycle will have it's full
 place in law. For instance, a very in-
 teresting question has just been raised
 in Chicago. The agent in charge of
 one of the great office buildings in that city has decided that bicycles shall not be allowed on the premises. Mary
 of the offices on the upper floors of tee structure were occupied before the building was entirely finished, and dur ing this time the wheel-riding tenants were allowed to bring their machines inside. Some left their wheels in the corridor; others took them Into the elevators, and thence to their offices, while still others carried them up the stairs. But when everything about the building was complete the agent in- structed the janitor and his assistants to enforce the rule against bicycles. The first victim happened to be a law yer, who, when he found that his at- tempt to take his wheel to his office was resisted by force, decided to make a test case in the courts. The bicycle riding tenants claim that they have as much right to take their wheels to the rooms or offices as they have to place any article of furniture there- in. The landlords who contest this claim insist that the wheel must be considered merely as a vehicle, and that as such it has no place in build ings devoted to business.
 How this question will be decided by law remains to be seen, but it will be practically decided by mak- ing some provision for the storing of bicycles in buildings occupied by ten- ants who ride the bicycle. If one will not do it another will, and the one who does it will find tenants and profit in it.

4 NOT4BLE TNTENTTOy.

Electricity can move railroad trains,
 and an ingenious man thinks he has found way in which electricity will stop railroad trains when they most need stopping An experiment in the automatic control of railroad trains by means of an electric current pass ing along the rails and thence to the air brakes of the locomotive is about to be given a. practical trial on the Water town branch of the F1tchburg railroad, where preparations have been made to put the new system to severe test. The inventor claims that his device will entirely do away with railroad ac- cidents such as are due to broken rails, misplaced switches and draws, collisions or blocked tracks of any kind. Tn sup port of this claim he exhibits a model of tracks and engine fitted out with the automatic controlling system. To show how the train is stopped without human intervention, Che exhibitor points out a small contact arm extending down from the locomotive so as to slide over a contact plate a short distance before the train enters each new section or "block" of track. This plate is connect . ed with the track of the section ahead, which, If all right, causes no change in the motion of the train, but which. if broken or obstructed by another train at once breaks the circuit and stops the

the fan or the scarf. It has always been essential that the woman of fash ion shall have something about her cos- tune that she may prime and prink The graceful scarf gives her every chance for graceful movement of the handsome shoulders, for delicate wav- ing of the head and bending of the neck and for graceful swaying oGthe body to meet the lingering folds.
 The lorgnette Is not m sraly SO good a "property" as the scarf, but it serves. The hand, wrist and arm, may grace themselves with a thousand pretty tricks in the use of this weapon; and there is such a chance to bend the head prettily on the neck. The eyebrows get their chance, too, so decidedly the lorgnette has it's uses further than as something to look through, but just now the long gloves are favored over both these accessories.
 Sleeves that demand just such gloves are put into the dress pictured to-day, and the whole is a very swagger out door outfit.

 Our "Old Green''-What is 1t? Merely an unproductive plot of land in the heart of thriving city where land is especially valuable. It is given over principally to the raising of grass, which, however, is not allowed to grow tall enough and ripe enough to make salable hay, It has many trees, some of them venerable, and most of them stately and beautiful, but of no real use until chopped into lengths for fire wood, It affords a site to three church ediices of simple, old fashioned archi- lecture, impressive in their severity as a New England divine of the olden days. It protects a few ancient and honorable graves, It provides a safe and pleasant playground for children, and spacious field for military and civic parade, and for the gathering of the populace on gala days. Is not this nearly all that can be said of it?
