AGAINST TARIFF WAR.
Assurances of Friendliness from RI

Assurances of Friendliness from Rus sia
 Washington, July 5.-The Russian government through M. deWollant, its charge q d'affaires here, has given assur- ances to the state department that 1t is anxious to avoid tariff war with this country over the commercial differences growing out of the action of the United States in imposing additional duties on Russian beet-sugar and petroleum and Russia's retaliatory imposition of the maximum duties on American machin- cry, bicycles and naval stores. The assurances are very friendly and indi- cate Russia's desire to continue those pleasant relations that have always eX- isted, both commercially and political ly, between the two countries. The full est consideration of the American re- sponse to Russias retailatory action is promised.
 M deWollant to-day, in behalf of his government, formally acknowledged the receipt of Secretary Hays note re- specting the imposition by Russia of tariff duties. One of the purposes of the Russian reply is to keep the issue between the ewo gov ernments in it's present condition until Count Caccini, the Russian ambassa- dor, arrives at St. Petersburg, and has an opportunity to confer with the for eign officials.

expenses of a city is from $25 to $40 per capita therefore 50 cents per person for parks is not excessive. What are called completed parks cost from $50 to SPA, 900 per acre but unless there is a great deal of expensive masonry, S2,000 per acre ought to be sufficient cost, al though it may easily exceed that amount.
 MT Parlter found upon analyzing the tables much to his regret, that the cities made up largely of working peo- pie are not only very deficient in park areas but their development is very inn perfect. Types of such cities are: Manchester, Scranton, Lawrence Eliz- abeth, Holyoke and Fall River. One Of those cities with delightful geograp phical location and a population of over 100000, has only about eighty acres of parks. Not an acre is we'll developed and on only a small propor- tion is there even a pretense of clean Illness. That city spends less than $5,- 010 per year for park purposes, $50, 900 less than should be spent. There are 1 200 people to an acre of neglected arks and the cost of all the construc-

takes $500, 100000 to run our cities, the S1l,000,O00 for parks is small; only about two per cent.
 MT. Parker submitted with his paper tables giving data regarding parks which is to be printed in the govern ment census reports, and drew from the information he had obtained the following conclusions: One twentieth of the area of each citv should he re- served for parks and squares. A play ground at least 300 feet square to every square mile of territory and four other small squares to tlle mile of at least half acre each, should be in every city. This would be 15 12 per cent. of the area giv.n up to public uses. One- third of the cities have more than that quantity of land applied to park pur- poses and it is probable that 20 per cent. or one acre in five if devoted to public use, would go far towards pre- venting over-crowding and make the other four acres more valuable.
 MT. Parker discussed the cost of parks per capita of population. cost of construction and maintenance, and ad- vocated that as the cost for the totalI

 ufacturing cities. MT. Parker paid a
 compliment to Boston for her generos-
 ity in parks and their complete main
 tenance but added that the city should
 hang her head in shame because of the
 limited provision made for the working people. The wealthy cities have parks, the poorer do not, but parks and play grounds are most needed where the laboring classes live. No child should be required to go far to reach a play ground. There is probably a direct re- lation between parks and open places, and disorder and crime. He was of the opinion that a proper proportion of open spaces would reduce the hood lum' misdemeanors at least 75 per cent. and the crimes against women one-half in the manufa curing cities, although they might not be effective in lessening the crimes and misdemeanors of the rich. In manufacturing cities, parks and squares, or at least some portion of them, should be we'll lighted and protected in the evening, the

CENSUS OF PARKS FOR 1901.
Paper Read by Supt. Parker at the
 Milwaukee Convention

Paper Read by Supt. Parker at the
 Milwaukee Convention.
 George A. Parker, superint endent of Keney Park, read an interesting paper last week at the fifth annual conven- tion of the American Park and Outdoor Art association. MT. Parker is chair man of the census committee of the as- soclallon and mas collected an immense amount of information and data re- garding the public parks in this coun- try MT. Parker showed that fifty years ago no municipality in the Unit ed States had purchased an acre of land for park purposes. But by fast years reports from all but eleven Of the cities of over 50G00 population, enumerated with total area of 59,7f7 acres, valued at $531, ,571, 94i. The years expenses for construction purposes was S4555,213 and for maintenance $1,S49, 150. It is probable that the citias of the United States including those of over 50,0O0 population, have 75,C00 acres of land in parks and expend $11, ,000 900 an- nually i'll their improvement and main- tenance.

NOTES.

Basket ball promises well to be the
popular game for the girls this year.
The young ladies' have organized two
teams and are practicing very hard,
and as a result many of them are to be
seen laborlously pursuing their duties
on the hill with sprained ankles, swol.
len knees and sore elbows.
The university has the promise of
a department in vocal culture II the
response OF the students is sufficient
to guarantee such an enterprise.
The assembly has proved one of the
most interesting features OF college
life so far this season. On Friday
morning the president gave an adj.
dress on When Does Theory Become
Law" The students were urged to
beware of becoming "fossilized" and
the talk was fully of useful hints. The
new president is winning the hearts OF
all.
Next Saturday another deadly com
bat is scheduled between the varsity
base ball boys and the High school
heroes.
