OBJECT TO THE CHIMES
MOVEMENT AGAINST COURT HOUSE
ii. CLOCK BELLS BEING STARTED.

The suggestion that the members of
the CITY council may restore the Ginning
DELL attachment to the city hall clock
has aroused the residents and tenants of
more than forty blocks in the vicinity of
the city hail. and measures will be taken
that will forever quiet the nuisance. Such
proceedings were about to be commenced.
a year ago when the quarter hour strik-
ing mechanism got out of order, and
further steps were abandoned Now,
however that the council appears in
chned to restore the noise, In order that
the official clock winder may have
something to do, petitions are ready for
circulation by those most nearly affected,
and the matter will be taken to the
courts if no other means is found to sup
press this continual performance. Once
an hour is regarded as sufficient to en-
tighten the people as to the time of day.
one of those interested in the movement
said yesterday: There is apparently no
reason why we should be informed by a
Changing. of bells every fifteen minutes. Tt
is distracting, annoying and altogether
unnecessary. More than that, it is against
the trend of the times 1t is increasing
noise on the street, instead of decreasing
it. 1t is a custom that has long since
become obsolete in every large commune

PARKS ARE STRIPPED

DENUDED OF THEIR
C0LoRS
SIGNS OF WINTERS APPROACH
Preparations Being Made for VIM
ter Storage of Plants and Flow
r. ers-ImprOvements for Next
Year Planned.

f. While Still open to the public and
patronized to an extent that is remark
able for this time of the year, the city
parks have lost much of their freshness
and in another week or two will be only
a memory as far as beauty and color is
concerned.
AT Como the grass and shrubbery is still
as green as it was a month ago, but
the display of color has largely disap-
peared, the Towering plants, especially
the delicate ones, having been transferred
to winter quarters. The same applies
to Indian Mounds park. where Supt Nuss-
banner has had force of men the past
week robbing it of its beauties and trans
ferring them to the hot houses at Como
park
The same state of affairs exists at all
the small parks, preparations even hav-
Ing been made for the winter storage Of
the seats. These suffer as much as the
flowers from the elements, and for econ
omy's sake are always removed to a dry
place.
IT was rumored and, in fact the state
ment given out that the street car COM
pany would double track its right of way
at the entrance to Como park at an ex-
pense of over $4,000 but there is little
likelihood of the work being done this
year While asking repeatedly for the
Improvement, the park board has no posi-
tive assurances that it will ever be done.
The park board has much in the line
of Improvements planned for the many
beauty spots under its care next year.
sPhalen and Indian Mounds parks will
come in for a heavy share of the expen-
5ditures that will be made, but Como, the
peer of them all, will not be forgotten
For this popular resort fine new toilet
rooms, with the possible erection of a
new pavilion near the band stand, are
contemplated.
Phalen park is now in the rough, with
out street car facilities, but this will
be remedied next year if the plans Of
the board are carried out. The street
car company, 1t is claimed, is antagonfst,c
to this particular resort, fearing that it
will in time supplant Wildwood, but pres
sure will be brought to bear on the coun-
ell to compel the extension of the tracks.
A pavilion will be built and attractions
In the, line of dancing hall, merry-go-
round and roller coaster furnished.
Indian Mounds park has had It's
boundaries considerably extended the past
year by the acquisition of much land.
Some of the lots are covered by a num-
Der of handsome buildings, and 1t Is pro-
posed ito convert one or two of them into
.roomy pavilions. Better water and toilet
facilities are also promised.

The proposition is. that the resident d.

That is the proposition that the state

terence yesterday, and while neither
would commit himself on the, proposition,
1t has been intimated by the others of

end, and further that the normal board
mas secured a position and legal standing
that rightfully belongs to It,
The normal board entertains some
views which will have to be conceded by

question of uniform text, boeks3yin the

gard to this, after. the meeting yesterday:
