Of public links in the parks. Mime
apolis is one OF the few large cities
where links are not maintained. There
are many local followers Of golf who
do not feel able to Join the country
clubs for financial reasons. These
golfers are denied the privilege Of
playing their favorite game. Base
ball can be played on almost any va
cant lot, but golf calls for far more
territory. Links for the new park
have been talked Of, but followers Of
the game should interest themselves
and see to it that the links are laid
out SO that real golf may be played
and the game will not take on a par
lor aspect for lack Of room. Public
golf links have proved one Of the most
successful ventures made in eastern
cities and boom the game almost be-

Country club members always find
park links useful auxiliary. Coun-
try clubs are generally several miles
out in the agrarian district and time

Happily there is not much alteration
 in the city itself, save the great widen- ing of the Strand. St. Paurs still lifts 1 it's dome in benediction over the busy Ieity, and looks through the smoke to ithe Tower on the one hand and the
 Nelson monument on the other. The
 National Gallery keeps it's selection thank Heaven, not a collection) of
 great pictures for whosoeVer will come land look, and the silent statues, tab- lets, and tombs of the Abbey are as eloquent as ever. Here is that most de- llightful though not the safest con- lyeyance, the hanson, waiting in the tyery station; and even the ''tupenny ltuhe" has not driven off the streets the picturesque and many colored omnibus es. Here Is still that abounding vital- Iity, as of perfectly healthy body. that | fills every side street with a stream of life, from Mile End to Sheperds Bush, from Hampstead to Wandsworth The I first time one goes to Europe, he thinks London dingy and Paris the only city
 worth staying in. The second time he doubts which he likes the better. The third time he doubts no more, and can hardly get away from the homely,
 homelike fascinating hive of English Humanity He sees unesr the apparent lconfusion the firm hand of law. The great tides of traffic that flow down the marrow channels of the streets are held
 as firmly in the hands of the police as ! if they wer ebut threads. The city Is
 clean down through all its alleys and
 out through all it's suburbs. The pave
 inents are well made and well kept, and lyet there is not that constant upheaval (which so irritates us. The consequence is that London is probably the quiet
 lest city for 1t sanount of motion in
 the world. We hear the great difference
 between England and America placed
 in the amount of haste. But the crowds lin American streets move no faster ltran those in the English. What strikes lthe returning traveller Tn his native city lis not hurry, but noise, disorder and ldirt. London seems well governed, held lin hand.

which we in Great Britain take so much fo rgranted in our public men that We quite forget to wax enthusiastic over them. Indeed nothing could have
 shown more clearly the difference in the tone and condition of British and
 American politics than the extraordin- Iary fuss which the Americans have made over Judge Parker's candor and idirectness. They could hardly have made greater fuss if he were a para igon of all the virtues, instead of being, as he seems to us to be, nothing more astounding than a truth-telling and a straightforward man. And even in these
 respects it can hardly be claimed for
 him that he is in any way Mir. Roose- yelt's superior. As far as the essentials | of character are concerned both men seem to stand pretty much on the same level; but but in experience, range lproved capacity for the management of great affairs the advantage is over
 lwhelmingly on MT Roseyelt's side. Still
 more distinct is the superiority of the policy he advocates. is clear from Judge Parker's speech of acceptance that
 ne IS a Little American who only half accepts Americas new information lal position and the duties attaching to
 1t, and that he looks to find the solution Iof the Philippine problem in the pre- tposterous metaphysics of the Declara- Itio of independence. On such a pro- lgram he never can reach the White lHouse.-London Post.

An aye and nay vote was taken on the amendment and the chair said that he was in doubt and called for a rising vote. He then de- ciared the amendment lost by a vote of 2S to 24. The original motion was then carried, during considerable confusion, by a vote of 3S to [, a number of the delegates declaring that they did not know how they were voting.
 Chairman Fitzgerald appointed the committee to bring in the list of dele gates: James F. McGann, George H. WohImaker, Frederick Dakin, John Griffin and William Maley. As there was some confusion in the hall an ad- journment was declared for five fnin- utes while the committee was prepar- ing its report.
 During the intermission Harry Leigh and Frank Foley engaged in wordy contest and for a while things looked sQually and there was much excitement but matters were finally quieted down.
 The committee on it's return to the han presented the following list of names as delegates to the state conven- ton: Henry Wade Rogers, William A. Wright, David E. Fitzgerald, John H. Courtney, Max Thalheimer, James N. States, John M. Burke John F. Brauer, Edward H. Rogers, James F. McGann. Michael O'Mara, James J. Devine. F. J, Cronan, James B. Martin.

 When the list was read Alderman De- vine of the Seventh ward moved that the list be adopted as read and this vote was carried unanimously.
 John Maley made motion to the eff. feet that each delegate be given the right to select his own alternate. and this motion was carried unanimously Town Clerk Brethauer stated that twenty -seven delegates should be SC. lected as New Haven was entitled tc that number, but the chairman dis. agreed with him.

 Hicks in the meantime had spurted little and passed this point sixth man, with Corey, the second man behind him.
 When the halfway point was reached Iorg. who had become exhaused, pass ed in an automobile. Mellor was the first man to pass the halfway point, followed by Newton short distance behind, and closely following Newton came Hicks, running easily. The rest of the field came struggling along, and soon after having passed the half way point several were barely running. Six | teen miles out H. A. Brawley of Boston
 dropped, overcome by pains in his legs, but after rubbing them a bit, got up and gamely proceeded. Mellor was
 overcome by pain in his side, and was forced to abandon the race. Hicks had steadily forged ahead after passing
 Melior, but was apparently exhausted. In the distance behind him Newton l was coming along slowly but apparent
 ly easily. Corey at that time was out of sight and climbing hill. The fact
 that he had gained the lead spurred
 Hicks to renewed effort and his steady and telling trot was to some degree
 accelerated. Meantime Frank Pierce, of New York city, John c. Lordon of
 Cambridge, Mass, and M. Spring of New York city had become exhausted and were taken in automobiles. > When the twenty mile point had i been reached Lorg again started run ming. Hicks was running with mechan-
 ical exactness, slowly and with every
 motion of his body indicating that he
 was suffering with fatigue. But he was
 stll full of grit, Tn answer to a ques- tion as to how he was feeling, he call-
 ed back over his shoulder: 'I want
 something to eat as soon as get there.
 I'm nearly starved ...-.s He maintained his pace until within two miles of the goal when he drop ped to walk in climbing a hill, the first time he had ceased running. At
 the top of the hill crowd cheered
 him vigorously, which renewed his flag ging energy and he broke into pace, maintaining 1t until he reached the en- trance to the stadium track. Then amid tremendous cheering of spectators, he doubled his pace, rushed half around the track and in the gathering dark ness crossed the tape, the winner.
 The crowd had hardly quieted from its ovation when Corey. who had made tremendous headway in the last stretch. ran in and crossed the line second.
 Again the cheering ensued, and when lit had died away Newton ran into the
 stadium and scored as third man.

AN ENGLISH VIEW,
What the London Post Thinks of Par-
 ker's Candidacy.

What the London Post Thinks of Par
 ker's Candidacy.
 One is becoming a little tired of the |eulogies on Judge Parker's courage"
 His supporters and admirers speak and write of him in way that is little |complimentary to himself and still less |so to the public life in which he is about to take prominent, and possibly the most prominent part. One would infer from their panegyrics that politics in the United States are so debased and politicians so abiectly subservient to the small electioneering point of view that a man who speaks out and de- le1ines to play pitch and toss with his Iconvictions is really in American eyes somewhat of hero. And perhaps the inference would not be very far wrong. lit is the misfortune or the fault of Americans that they have too largely allowed their politics to fall under the
 sway of bosses" machines" and the lwire-pulling element. Of course, those are not the conditions that encourage personal leardership and initiative or allow much scope for an independent spirit. .. l Men of rectitude and character, like
 MT Roosevelt, whose horizin Is not
 bounded by the four walls of com tmittee-room, and who does not mistake the naaneuvers of a campaign manager 1 for statesmanship, rise in American politics, when they rise at all, in spite | of the "bosses." But their case is so rare, and evasiveness and timidity are so dexterously and universally culti- Ivated that man who dares to be hifn- lself and to say what he believes, and who knows that the best politician of them all is he who never thinks of the votes, is at once acclaimed by his faeile fellow countrymen as a miracle of lcourage and is as likely as not to be compared to Cato on the spot.
 All that Judge Parker has done so far is to show that he has views and is not afraid to. speak them. In his tele- gram to the Democratic convention an- noGncing his firm adherence to the gold standard and declining the nomination unless a majority of the delegates en- dorsed his views there was nothing in- l ttrinsically wonderful. It was the act OL d ItldII OL ptlHGlpiS dilu honesty aflQ lshrewd good sense, who not unnatural | ly found himself unable to reconcile the faction, or rather inaetion, of the con- vention either with ll1s private convic- tons or his political reason. If to
 Americans it appeared stroke of all
 most superhuman audacity, that can only be because even such elementary displays of the conmonplace virtues
 are rarer. than they should be in Amer ican politics. For there was nothing in what Judge Parker did that is not done "a hundred times over during the course 1 of a general election in Great Britain. Nor in his speech in accepting the | nominations speech that seems to
 have made almost as great an impress
 sion on American opinion as the tele- gram itself-are we able to detect any, thing very remarkable. It appears to have been animated by precisely those
 qualities of outspokenness and sincerity
