After the Fair it is the intention of the
Park Commissioner to entend the track in
to the far western section OF the park. AMI
thus give riders chance TO have stretch
OF many miles.
Another marked change will be the build
ing of a pavilion over Forest Park spring.
Forest Park spring is really not the name
of this. the most noted watering spot of
the park. The fact is. it is has no name
but a name will be selected. Park Commits
sioner Aull says. for the spring has been
an historic spot ever since the establishment
of the park.
But few persons in st. Louis know that
that the spring which is situated but 10
yards south ct the Wabash tracks near
Kings highway and West Pine boulevard
is noted for its mineral properties. What
the properties are have never been clearly
defined. Samples OF the water have been
placed with the city chemist by the Park
Commissioner. who is curious to know
whether the yater contains metallic or sa-
line ingredients.
The analysis was prompted by the fact
that the spring is as popular as Ponce de
Icons tabled fountain Of youth. and is
daily beseged by those thirsting for its
cooling product.

visitors may return to their native heaths

Park Commissioner Aull recently re-
turned from Buffalo, y. Y, where he at
tended the convention of the Park and Out
door Art Association. There he absorbed
many ideas which he proposes to put in OPP
Grafton in St. Louis. His visit has resulted
in daily meetings with his superint endent,
William S. Lamar, keeper of Forest Park.
At these meetings the ways of Fasteners
are discussed and suggestions offered for
their adoption and improvement.
EQUESTRIAN TRACK PLAN.
One of the first improvements to be put
under way and one which will be hearlded
with joy by ST. Louis society persons and
others who ara fond of horseback riding,
will be an equestrian track.
Equestrian tracks are not new in tine
East In fact, every well-equipped park
there has one. One of these tracks saddle
horses only are allowed, because the road
must be natural earthen one not adapted
for the onslaughts Of even light vehicles
The equestrian track at Forest Park has
already been ordered and work on it is 70

through the heavily wooded parts of the
grounds, and end at the Worlds Fair fence.

for the sake of picturesqueness. The twelve
dainty specimens with their three babies
are to be taken from the elk yard near the
pagoda and transferred to subdivision just
opposite the deer paddock. Like the deer,
they will then be allowed to roam over
patch of ground 100 by 800 feet.
The change is contemplated to give the
park more forest-like appearance. for ut
present the elk are hous I'd in a plat with
cut blade OF grass or tree and have but a
few square feet of ground TO traverse.
Special attention is being paid by the
Park Commissioner AID his assistants 20

plants at once impress visitors by their
richness. and already many fine specimens
have been installed at points where driving

is being admired by all.
