SPRING LAKE PARK.

LIMPID WATERS
Furnished the Small Boy a
Place to Show His Pow
ers as a Swimmer
and Diver.
WHAT THEY SAID.
Every One Thought the Grounds
Beautiful and Needed Only
Few Finishing Touches.

Texarkana has at last secured a
park, through the work of Manager
Whitley of the street rail road, and
yesterday his cars made their inl-
tial run to the grounds, and many
Texarkanians secured passage on
the cars, and were carried out there
and all expressed themselves
pleased with the landscape and sur
rounding territory,
The grounds can be placed in good
shape for few hundred dollars, and
fenced up for a hundred or more
50, after which the park will
be equal to any in many places
larger than Texarkana,
We learn the base ball clubs here
will put the grounds under fence
and that a grand stand and dan
cling pavilion will be erected, as
will stands for the sale of summer
ices, cakes and fruit.
When this is all accomplished the
park will Spring" into public fa-
vor and not only will our citizens
visit it on Sunday evening, but al
most every evening in the week,
We will then have a place to hold
summer theatricals, dances, Socia-
bles, political speaking and gather
ings of all kinds.
The lake when filled full of water
will make an excellent place to
bathe, and this alone will give the
street cars work to do every day
during the summer.
Manager Whitley does not make
any charges to enter the grounds
neither will he make any for bath
ing privileges, and he expects to
add additional attractions to his
park, to make 1t draw crowds every
evening.
We hope to see the work of beau
tifying Spring Lake Park pushed to
its utmost speed, and before sum-
mer is out we will have it in fine
shape.
The crowd that visited this re-
sort yesterday, can be estimated at
1000 or 1900, and many of these
rode on the street cars.
We shall visit the park often and
keep our readers posted as to
improvements being made on the
grounds,
We wanted to name the park
after Superintendent Whitley, but
we notice from his banners on the
cars that he has appropriately

MAYOR HARDIN CALLS.
He is Opposed to Skin Games" as
Much any one and Will Abate
Them When Found, If in
His Power.

Mayor Hardin, of the West side,
gave us a pleasant call this morning
and said in substance:
81 notice in your paper of Sunday
morning where you said Skin
games were being run on the West
side. In regard to this / wish to
say that during the commencement
exercises at the school house on
Thursday night while was away
from the street, taking game was
run on the street a short time, but
as soon as | was made aware of it,
/ issued a warrant for the arrest
of the party, but he had stolen
away and we could not find him.
GAS to the watch game being
run on State Line, it is licensed by
the state, and the party holds his
license for one year from the state,
and the required length of time he
desires to remain here from the
county, He also holds a city IL
cense for which he paid So, and a
receipt signed by A. ]. Offenhauser
tor rent of ground, and l found on
visiting him, that | had no recourse
on him. l shall keep all shady
games and fakirs from the street
when in my power, and suppress
gambling as far as it is in my pow
er."
Good for Mayor Hardin, and it
affords us pleasure to quote him as
above. Our squib meant no rehec-
tion on him-was a simple state
ment of news and our views as to
the matter.

CLEVELANDISM.
1t is Thought that There will
he a Split at Chicago and
Cleveland will be the
Leader for the Col
den Branch.
HE HAS A CLOSE MOUTH,
And Is Preparing His "Yes" or mo"
and will Say 1t at the Proper
Time. 1t is Thought that
Yes will be the Word.

Senator Blackburn of Kentucky
who is a prognosticator in politics,
say: There will be two conventions
at Chicago, and two nominations
and two platforms. Grover Cleve-
land will be at the head of one of
the tickets.
When the Senator was asked if
he thought Cleveland would be
elected, said, it would be impossible
as he cleveland could not carry
single Southern state.
The reporter then asked the SEN
ator if Carlisle was a candidate
and he said not much, if Cleveland
knows it. He regards Carlisle as a
decoy duck for Cleveland. Black
burn further SAID that Russell was
another beautiful green headed de"
coy Cleveland had set out in the
east to attract public notice until
the proper time came tor him to
spring himself as an unwilling can
didate on the people.
In this regard the Chicago Record
prints a special from Washington
which says: president Cleveland is
preparing to issue pronuncia-
mento. 1t will not deal with the
Cuban revolution, nor will it refer
to the Venezuelan boundary dis
pute. 1t will dispose of a question
which is considered by shrewd party
managers of vital Importance to the
organization and inform the public
whether he will again be a can
date.
Mr.. Brice says frankly that in his
opinion the interests of the party
demand a prompt announcement
from the chief magistrate. 1t is
contended by certain politicians
here that the division in the party
in Illinois and other states is caused
more by the fear that the success
OF the gold campaign will result in
the denomination of Mr.. Cleveland
than by opposition to the financial
principle involved. "
