Because Of IS surroundings, and

The Messiah By the Swedish colony
at Lindsborg, in central Kansas, is

"A musical festival that, out on the

The growth OF the audiences in this
instance, year after year, indicates a
thorough appreciation Of a worthy
rendering Of Handel's great oratorlo.
The Swedes are singing people, and
the religious sentiment Is strong in
their hearts. The one cherished day

GOLFERS PLANS.

GOLFERS PLANS.
Mayor Van Wyck is TO have the active co-opera-
ton of Corporation Counsel Whalen in his oppos-
ton to Controller Coler's plan for uniting the
boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn by tunnels,
under the authority of the Rapid Transit Commits
sion. Mr. Coler holds that the COMMISSIONS pow
ers the entire city, and that 1t ought to give
out contract for the construction of a tunnel
from Whitehall-st. to South Brooklyn before Mayor
Van Wycks bridge building mania has increased
the ctys liabilities to the limit of Indebtedness.
President Orr has said that he thinks the Com
missions powers ample for that purpose; but
the fact remains that the Corporation Counsel
must approve the terms of the contract before II
can be let. Mr.. Whalen held up the contract for
the Manhattan tunnel for many months before he
consented to it, and there seemed to be no way to
hurry him. so that II he chooses to oppose MI.
Coler's plans his opposition may be formidable
one.

Mr. Whalen's interpretation of the law has been
frequently upset before but If he sticks to his
position he make trouble. Another obstacle In
the way of Mr.. Coler's scheme is the Park Board.
It was their opposition which served largely to
bring about the abandonment Of the original Idea
of having the Manhattan tunnel start from the
Battery Instead of from the City Hail. and If
tunnel is to he built from the Battery TO Brooklyn
there must g. in order to make it of much use,

Hall to the Battery. The Park Board would be
likely to concur with Mayor Van Wyck in opposing
this. and il any encroachment upon Battery
Park were avoided Mr.. Whalen could still withhold
his consent and block the plan He has been
strong advocate from the first of completing the
upper end of the rapid trarsit road quickly
possible, and will have strong backing from people
in Harlem and The Bronx in opposing anything
which might delay the transit facilities for which
that region has long hoped.
