In a suburban park Of larger area
the keynote must also be constant
change Of view as one walks or drives
along its roads and pathways. At
every turn in the way new vistas open
out before one. This is the secret Of
park architecture or landscape build

much more extensive than they are in
reality. Tower Grove Park. In st.

the gorgeous Coral tree. Such con-
tinulty OF view would add much to the
fame and beauty Of HonOlulu's streets.
Another suggestion as to the beau
tifying Of the streets would be that
fences around private grounds be re-
moved so that the lawns might extend
from the residences to the Public foot
paths. OF course in villages and Coun-
try towns where cows and other family
livestock run In the streets fences are
necessary as a protection to the shrub

certainly passed the street pasture stage

In the matter of parks or public

when Honolulu doubles and treblcs in
size, as II undoubtedly will within an,

Best Methods to Adopt.

On the contrary, many cities larger
than Honolulu have no parks or pub.
lie pleasure grounds whatever. Parks
evidently cost a good deal OF money
to maintain properly. The most com.
mon system of management and the
one giving most satisfactory returns
Is to have an unpaid board OF three or
five Park Commissioners. usually pub.
lic.spiritcd business men. who have
the welfare Of the city az heart. Under
these superintendent. who receives
his instructions direct from the
Board, n paid official who should un.
derstand his business, and an engineer,
gardeners, foremen, etc.
In establishing new parks or remod.
cling old ones the services Of profess
sional landscape architect should b.
secured. Any good gardener can plant
trees but there are very few who can
plan. as well as plant, for the time OF
maturity of the design as a whole. 4
well planned artificial landscape is a
work of art.
Small parks. squares and gardens in
the busy heart of city should provide
an agreeable change of view to those
who pass through them to or from
business. The cross paths and walks
must be reasonably direct through the
grounds. There must be shade
along the paths, and open sunshiny
places for the lawns and flower beds.

VICTORY FOR BOSTON.
Philadelphia Women Defeated in Golf
Team Match,

Woman golfers from the Boston district
proved too strong a combination for the
representatives from Philadelphia over the
Baltusrol links at Short Hills, N. j., yes
terday Under the conditions the teams
met in fifteen-a-sde match to decide
which should oppose New York experts to-
day for the Clement A. Griscom cup.
In the end the BoStonians won by A
holes to IL, the committee of management
having wisely decided to abandon the point
system, for this occasion at least.
The course was in ideal condition, al
though the heavy downpour on Sunday had
made the putting greens somewhat bumpy.
Miss Louisa Wells, the runner up to Miss
Genevieve Hecker for the recent national
championship, led the Boston forces while
Mrs. Caleb Fox, who has always been a
factor in championship matches, led the
Philadelphia contingent. The course was
exactly to Mrs. FoXs taste, and after nip
and-tuck struggle Miss Wells finished l up
on the home green.
Miss Mollie Adams, the champion of the
Boston district, and one Of the most fin
ished players in the country, had Miss
Frances Grscom, the former champion, as
opponent. The last named, in spite of the
fact that she played in her very best
form,- had to acknowledge defeat, to the
tune of down. Miss Adams registered
102 for the round, the best card of the day.
The surprise of the struggle was unques-
tionably the defeat of Mrs. w. M. Gorham
at the hands of Miss E. s. Porter The first
named was regarded as Philadelphia 8
trump card, after her sensational victories
over Mrs. E. A Manice and Miss Margaret
Curtis in the championship at Brookline.
Miss Porter, however, who holds the record
for her home links at Brookline. played ex-
ceptionally fine golf at the majority of the
long holes and retired 1 up.
The heaviest contributors to the winning
side were Miss F. c. Osgood and Miss Har-
riet Curtis, both of whom finished up on
Miss Biddle and Mrs. T. w Reath, re-
spectively.
Of the eleven holes scored by the losers
Mrs. H. Fitzgerald was responsible for
seven, none of the other winners for Phila-
delphia being more than 1 up. The sum

NATIONAL BOARD ADJoURNs.
Minor League Magnates Decide on
Truce Until November IS.

The national board of arbitration OF minor
leagues, which has been holding sessions
In New York the last three days. trying
to straighten out the western base ball
war. adjourned yesterday until November
is, without having brought about peace.
Before adjourning, however. the warning
minor leaguers decided on a truce in the
way of not bidding for each others players
until after the adjourned meeting. The
American Association representatives at
the conference put forth a proposition to
settle the trouble by the Western League
Withdrawing from Kansas City and Mil
waukee, giving the territory over to the
American Association. In return T. H. Van
Brunt, the financial hacker of the Western
League, was to receive a half interest in
the Kansas City club. This offer was re-
fused by the Western League people. who
want an equal division of the disputed ter
ritory, the American Association to take
either Kansas City Milwaukee and the
Western League to take the other. This
the American Association representatives
refused to do. The Western League men
then offered to buy the franchises in the
two disputed cities for $4,000 or sell out
at the same figure. The magnates could
not get together on either plan and decided
to take time to think the matter over
