 Funeral of Mrs James FOgarty.
 sQuinnipiac park, on Chapel street, near James, is pleasant resort for the people on these hot summer days. Yes terday there were fully a hundred peo- pie there. mostly children, and bathing and games were in progress. The park commission has done very little for this park in years, and while other city parks are getting regular appropria- tions, Quinnipiac is neglected. It is in one of the most thickly populated wards in the city, and while it is per haps more largely patronized by the people than most any other park, the least is done for it. Years ago the flag staff was shattered by lightning, but it has never been replaced, When the accident happened new flag had just been procured, but there has been no place to display the flag for years. The original plan was to fill in and extend the shores of the park to the harbor line, but this has never been done. New seats should be provided, a flagstaff erected and other improvements start ed. Why the park commission should so utterly neglect this park, which could be made so attractive spot, is mys- tery to thousands of the Eleventh ward people.
