DANG 1T ALL!

One little letter perched upon
the little slim base, peeping out
among it's co-workers for the intel
ligence of the public, when taken
from the wrong box or placed in
the wrong place, and remains un-
noticed by the proof reader, some-
times makes great difference in
the whole reading Of an article
formulates n wrong impression en-
tirely; changes an assemblage
from one race to another; puts an
entire different phase on the doings
of people; twists the Imagination
into wrong channel entirely; pic
lures intelligent people in the pa hs
of heathend0m.

A Low Hedge Between it and
the Park Suggested.
The Dcners Agree to This Disposal
OF The Matter
Park Commissioners Prefer . More
Lnlcient Barrier.

There were two very interesting meet
ings at the city hall yesterday at which
matters of vital Importance to Roger
Williams Park were discussed. The meet
ings were those of the park commissioners
and the committee on highways. The
former met principally TO consider what
might be done toward establishing the
grade of the park contiguous TO Miller
avenue. Several schemes were presented
for consideration, the most popular being
TO bring the grade down TO the street
level, which would cost about $500, and
which he widow of Barton Miller and the
other heirs evidently expected would be
done. II seems that there Is no money in
the treasury to do anything with, so the
matter is still under consideration. That
something must be done is apparent, for
that edge of the park is unsightly enough
at present. A rolling bank could be made
or several other forms of adornment in
troduced, but they would cost much
money.
incidentally the matter OF fence at
that side of the park bordering on Miller
avenue, and which the Council voted to
be impracticable, recently, was discussed,
it also being the principal theme OF the
highway committees meeting.
When Mrs. Miller decided Miller avenue
to the city, in accordance with the late
Barton Miller's will, clause was inserted
in the deed to the effect that that part OF
the park should be unobstructed forever,
or the property should revert 10 the heirs.
Councilman Phillip B. Durfee said that he
understood that Mrs Miller, who lives in
Philadelphia, would be willing TO sign a
deed whereby a 2-foot hedge, with open
ings at intervals of $50 feet, might be
grown. The prevailing opinion was,
however, that a 2-foot hedge would not
be high enough TO keep dogs out of the
park, the dogs being great menaces not
only to plants and flowers, but to the
fowls as well. The preference seemed to
be for a 3-foot hedge at least If fence
cannot be built.
OF course no fence would be an induce
ment for real estate buyers, as then they
would have an unobstructed view and
the three or four acres of that part of the
park would serve as a lawn. 2-foot
hedge would suit them almost as well.
City Solicitor Colwell was called upon
and he said he thought ii would be proper
for somebody to make an explanation TO
Mrs. Miller, and he suggested that the
committee or park commissioners be sent
to Philadelphia and see II she would con-
sent to a 3-foot hedge.
1t was admitted that the matter may be
left, as the deed provides, but it will leave
af, uffinviting prospect rs II Is, except for
dogs and tramps and the aforesaid real
estate spectators.
1t is not improbable that chairman
Deming will be authorized 10 consult
with Mrs. Miller.

man, overturned two-seated carriage on
Elmwood avenue, just beyond Hamlin

accident was caused by the carriage,
which was on the left OF the track, being
suddenly driven across only length
ahead OF the electric, in spite OF the fact
that the gong was ringing. The motor
man acted so quickly that the car only
overturned the carriage with no damage
except to the running gear, which was

GREETED WITH CHEERS.
DEFENDERS MAINSAIL.
IL Was Cut i'm Infantry Hall and Sent
to Bristol

Defenders mainasil was cut in Infantry
Hall yesterday and sent down to Bristol
To be made at the Herreshoh shops last
night. There is no great secret about the
veason why the big sail was cut here. II
was simply because the Herreshotfs had
no place nearer TO hand large enough TO
accommodate the measurements, for II is
a big sail. Superintendent Hathaway for
the Herreshoffs had charge of the work
and called upon Mr.. Folsom of r. w.
Folsom Il Co., S4 South Water street, TO
borrow a couple of sail makers TO assist
in the cutting out. But one could be
spared, Samuel III. Merritt with whom
MIR. Hathaway was acquainted, and Mr.
Folsom permitted him TO go.
Mr.. Folsom says he is not familiar with
any more details than have already been
published in THE News, but he has
preserved piece Of the duck from which
the sail will be made, and ii adorns his
Office wall 1t is no better than some
other duck, he says, only it may be a
little more closely woven.
