Fort Hill Suggested as a Desirable Site
for a Public Park.
Wanted in ST. Louis for Assault With
Intent TO KiII--Not0S.

The desirability Of public park for the
people OF the town has been suggested
and Fort Hill has been mentioned an
excellent place to locate one. There is
no doubt but what Fort Hill has many
natural advantages. 1t is high land and
gives very good view OF the bay, but
the expense attached TO the carrying out
OF such project should deter the town
from considering II unless there are
enough public spirited citizens OF means
TO carry the idea out by subscription.
The towns finances are in no condition
TO permit of drawing on the public treas
ury for the purpose and this fact Is fully
realized. But there Is place which
could be made into a park with compare
lively no expense.
The grounds adjoining the town hall.
while not endowed with the natural ad-
vantages of Fort Hill. could be converted
very cheaply into a very good public park.
There is already bandstand there and
a few dollars would put in the additional
walks and purchase the necessary bench
es. The location Is central and easily
accessible.
