Edmund G. Walton addressed letter to
the park board, which at the last meet
ing was referred to the Improvement COM
mittee, voicing the query Of many citizens
Of Minneapolis as to why theparks are not
better cared for. The inquiries are
Especially pat in view of the swift APP

In his letter Mr.. Walton as the owner
of 900 vacant lots on which-he is pay-

pervise are growing weedy and rough? Ken
wood parkway from Hennepin avenue to
Spring lake is as uneven and dry as a Mis-
souri, turnpike Lake Of the Isles boulevard
is nothing better than a country road. The
lake itself is a hole for mosquitoes and dry

than TRAIL while Glenwood park and Pow
derhorn park are parks in name only.

our vaunted parks are such failures. There
is not smart drive in Minneapolis that one
could take visitor to. Everything we have

Is it that the appropriation for this work is
too small? There must be some remedy, OF
is it that the board has acquired too much

Mr.. KIpIlng,s Ofanse.

The body Of Mr.. Kipling's offense,
as nearly as we can make it out and
put it together from the quotations by
cable, is that being himself colonial
English, he has presumed to censure
the home English in terms which they
feel to be twitting and haunting. He
has called them islanders, which they
are; and he has accused them OF pre-
ferIing athletics and field sports to the
martial exercises of chasing armed
Beers over veldts or kopjes, with mo-
ments OF uncertainty when the Beers
appear to be chasing them, which is
less sWeepingly true He has said in
SO many words that they have "fawned
on the younger nations for the men
that shoot and ride" and has implied
that they have got Canada and Aus
tralia and New Zealand to do their
work in South Africa, while thew
nave killed cock pheasants" in their
comfortable preserves at home and
nave played the part Of "fanneled fools
at the wicket, and muddied OATS at the
goal" instead of coming down to
South Africa like men, to be captured
and paroled by De Wet or Botha. His
remedy for their unworthiness is (stiu
as reported by the cable the sort Of
prescription that prevails on the Con-
rnent, where men who can fight and
won't fight are made to fight. But con-
scrlption Of any sort is alien to the
genius of the Anglo-Saxon race. and
this is a point of Mr. Kipling's very
prickly poem which pierces the Brit
ish public to the quick.-Harner's

Spinach SCUM.

Ingredients: One quart Of milk, pep
per and salt to taste, two tablespoon
fuls Of -four, enough onion juice or ex-
tract to flavor and spinach.
Rub the spinach through a sieve.
and use only the parts that pass
through. Scald the milk in a double
boiler, mix the -four with a little
milk and stir it with the heated milk.
Add the seasoning stirring the milk
constantly, and add enough spinach
to make the soup the thickness liked.
Some people use double the quantity Of
spinach named in the above recipe for
one quart of milk. This soup belongs
to the cream class, and when carefully
made has a delicate flavor If a dou-
bic boiler is not used for the milk, care
must be taken that it does not burn.

The principle of the lawn mower has
recently been applied to the cutting
of aquatic grasses. As is generally
known, the water hyacinth and GER
tain varieties Of grass grow SO lux
uriantly in many Southern lakes.
bayous, and rivers as to seriously oh
struct navigation. A Pennsylvania in
Eentor, after having had the problem
brought to his attention, devised a
water mower which appears to be
quite effective in destroying these
water plants. The apparatus weighs
about seventy-fve pounds, and is at
tached to the side of a roWboat. The
cutter bar is carried in a horizontal
position about a foot below the sur
face of the water, the knife being
driven from the end with a vibrating
lever or sway-bar. 1t is operated by
hand. It's desuuctiyeness results from
the cutting off of the leaves and tops
of the stalks, which results in the
death of most aquatic plants. Occa-
sionally these plants are so thick in
the water that the passage of launches
and steamboats, is impeded, if not ac-
tually INSTRUCTED.

RED SEA PIRATES.

Flourishing Now as They Did In the Good
old Days.
News from Alden tells that pirates
as In the good old days Of old" are
troubling the coastwise shipping, and
the stretch Of Arabian water between
Hodeida, Kunfadah, and up to Jeddah
is not safe. There are three Turkish
warships cruising along the Arabian
coast, supposed to be doing special sea
police duty, but piracy is still going
on. To any one who knows aught of
the methods Of Turkish men-o'-war
commanders this will not be astonish-
Ing. The latest case reported Is that
Of a sambook which left Hodeiha for
Kunfadah, loaded with piece goods
and merchandise worth about S21 900
and $4,000 in cash. The crew num-
bered fourteen, and there were twelve
passengers. While anchored for the
night, according to custom, in a bar
rem place near the coast not very far
from Jaizan, the ship was, at mid
night, boarded by two fishing boats,
containing twelve Africans armed
with large sticks. The Africans fell
on crew and passengers, beating them
numerically, and, having tied up their
hands and legs, took charge of the
sambook and sailed all night.
The following morning they arrived
at a small place on the coast. an
chored, and four Of them taking
money went on shore. They bought
sixty rifles and 1900 cartridges, came
back on board, and sailed all day with
their prisoners still tied Up. After
sunset they came to a place called
Towail, on the same coast. which is
their home. On anchoring, their
friends crowded to the shore and Joy
fully helped them to discharge the loot.
After taking out all the cargo, money,
provisions, and the crews and passen-
gers clothes, they told them to clear
away with their sambook, giving them
only one days provisions. The leader
OF this gang, named Ahmed Gobaish.
is said to be well-known pirate and

Some Artistic LAMPS.

The mystery of the many lamps seen

is explained when it is realized that
made-to-order lamps are very simple
and very common. Any cherished
bowl or jar may be converted into a
lamp by the mere mounting with metal
oil vessel, burner and globe support.

this way, and the lamp was the envy
Of all who saw it. A large umbrella

ease, the assortment of globes and
shades in any lamp shop Offering choice
to fit any standard. In this way it is
possible to have lamps correspond and

and dressed like a tailor's

ranked as grand marshal of dress

front that had borne him out of many
a hole. He had no profession but
"style," and just enough brains to
dodge creditors indefinitely, and. get
his accounts mixed" with everybody
who had financial dealings with him.
But after nearly six years, during
which his debts grew in inverse ratio
to his business reputation, he woke
up one morning with a dim but insist
ent realization that he was nearing the
end Of his rope. In a mad effort to
induce the payment of his rent Tubb's
landlord had shut off the steam and
hot water. His last valet was loiter-
ing in the street, lowering at Tubb's
window. He examined his mail--all
bills; not a single pink note nor a po-
lite invitation. So he laved his hand
some face with cold water and per-
fume and began to think as vigorously
as a rabbit that has heard the dog.
After breakfast he picked up his
paper lighted a cigarette and reclined.
His eye fastened on a brief dispatch
from Albany, which read:
"Clifford A. Rogers, the millionaire
lumber factor, formerly of Michigan,
died here tonight He leaves
an enormous fortune and his young
wife charming no
children She is devoted to
philanthropy -"
Tubb dropped the paper, grabbed it
again, reached for a scissors, clipped
the Albany dispatch and with unaccus-
toned feryor and vulgarity murmured:
"Me to Albany! Me for the widow"
In half an hour, faultlessly dressed,
gloved, groomed and debonnair, he
sauntered into an Office in the Gascon-
ade Building upon the door of which
was the legend:
fluff & Peak, Bankers"
Mr.. Peak was glad to see Mr.. Tubb,
but became a bit ferrety when the lat
ter unfolded his business. He urged
his plan to marry the Albany widow
and his need of financial help for the
campaign; claimed old acquaintance
with the Rogers family and, with con
seious FEASIBILITY, predicted that he
could win and marry the prize prob
