Court, Observation-Disclosures the trustees to
bring suit for the purpose of collecting the
unpaid assessments claimed to be due from
members of the order at the time the as

ONLY GET "DINKY" PARK
WORKS BOARD FINALLY DENIES Pc
Triton OF PoGUE's RUN PEOPLE.
Fifty Acres Omitted from the Original
tracts Let Yesterday.

Members Of the Board of Public Works,
the mayor and city engineer spent yester-
day afternoon in conference over the pro-
posed Pogue'S run park site. 1t was de-
cided early in the discussion that the petit
ton of the residents of the vicinity of the
proposed park should be denied and that
only the part of the territory between Rural
street and the Belt road should be included
in the purchase of land. The people inter-
ested in the park in that part of the city
petitioned the board to include all the land
along Pogue's run between Newman street
and the Belt Railroad, and an argument
was made in support of the petition that it
would cost barely $40 OG0 more than to merely
purchase the upper tracts and that it would
do away with the necessity of opening an
expensive street leading to the park
The action of the board and mayor was
based on the ground of expense. 1t was
claimed that the cost of the lower part of
the land was much greater an acre than
the upper portion and that it was more
than the city could afford to pay The site
as decided upon includes eighty acres,
known as the Handbook and Yandes lands,
and omits fifty acres known as the Spades,
Roberts and Vajen tracts and several
The board also considered with the mayor
the proposition to open a street across the
Pennsylvania and c., H. & D. tracks be-
tween State avenue and the Belt Railroad
Attempts to give the people of Woodside
a north outlet this way have been repeated
ly made without success. Twice the courts
have interceded and restrained action. The
railroad companies own the land across
which the street is to be made and to open
the street will damage them to the extent of
the value of the land and more. With the
street crossing comes the expense of main
tanning fiagmen and the cost of litigation
q NJ a IA pG NJ A
viaduct seemed at one time to be the solu-
ton of the problem, but the apportionment
of benefits and damages could not be sat
with a view of opening either Trowbridge
street or Rural street. At present the peo-
pie living in Woodside are almost without
fire protection, with an engine house only
a few blocks away by direct line, but miles
away without an opening across the tracks.
