with EngeI to see Park Commissioner Clausen
more than two months ago and obtained per
mission to erect two fish stores in the small

other at Hester and Norfolk SITS. Tolk erected
two frame buildings, each fifteen feet square
and one story high, inside the park grounds.
He has paid $12 month for the park ground

For more than a month Tolk has had man
running thriving fish market in the house in the

running a for the sale of cheap cloth in the

have their shops in houses fronting the park

ing store is mere song. There has been no sale
Of summer drinks either store. and TOlk's
"sea food is only fish. the kind of fish that Is
sold freely in Hester-st.. and may be smelled far

that Tolk gets a large monthly revenue from

ably due to the disnclination OF the older
women whose sons and husbands were in hourly
peril. for such festivities combined with their
uctance to deprive their daughters Of all amuse-
ment at a time depressing. She adds:
The Rosebud Ball Of America which was inaugu-

system of complete independence among young peo-

FISH STANDS IN A PARK.
ENGEL'S HENCHAIAN DOES IN SEWARD
WHAT MR.. CROKER COULDN'T
DO IN CENTRAL.

II the Tammany Park Commissioners allowed
even so powerful politician as Richard Croker
to erect and maintain a fish store in Central
Park they would soon have about their ears a
storm Of public indignation from which they
would be obliged to seek shelter One Of Martin
Engefs henchmen, however, has been permitted
by the Park Commissioners to erect two such
stores in the new William H. Seward Park, on
the lower East Side of the city, and maintain
them in defiance OF the indignation Of resi-
dents of that district.
The William H. Seward Park is of the
small parks designed as breathing places in the
