Special Cablegram - The Star.
NICE, June 26.-Mr. Charles NJ. Schwab,
late president of the United States Steel

at Monte Carlo during the dead season by
his high play at roulette.
He puts the maximum on a number, and
maximums on all the carries and trans
versailles" Finally he played No. 5 in this
way, and it came up four times. Mr..
Schwab won $4,000.
The table at which he plays is always
surrounded by an interested crowd
When he first arrived Mr.. Schwab had
bad time and lost so much of his
money backing No. 81 that he decided to
temporarily reduce his stakes to 5-franc
pieces.

IN JOHANNESBURG.
Settlement Between the Local Parties
Not Likely.

1t Is evident that Sir West Ridgeway and
his committee are likely to go away without
achieving any settlement between the local
parties at johannesburg. They are certain
to recommend three substantial modifica-
tons of the Lyttelton constitution. These
are as follows:
"A increase in the number of the mem
bers of the house of assembly to sixty at
least
The retention as constituencies of the
present magisterfal districts.
The granting of manhood suffrage.
Ali these were indeed practically fore
gone conclusions after the publication Of
the committees terms OF reference As
regards the first two IL Is fair to say that
IL any change Is desirable at all these are
probably good changes in themselves. The

different footing. As things are. 1t can

Matchless Workmanship.

Most diseases.are of spinal origin. &"
That is a characteristic generaliza-
ton of Osteopathy in a nutshell, and Is
contention that has never been dis
proved
The Osteopathic diagnosis. and
treatment are new and original, and
its percentage of cures have attracted
wide attention. This is history that
cannot be successfully challenged.
We apply in a new way and with
new force, old principles that are a
part Of the recognized. but theoretical
teachings of every school of practice,
but in ar unsystematic form.
You cannot study the anatomy OF
the spinal column without maryellng
that it so seldom gets out OF order.
II is the most matches piece Of
workmanship in all mechanics, and
the wonder Is that it should, some
times, from the way It is abused, do
its work at all.
BY all laws of physics, the spine is
liable at any moment to get out Of. or

lions and congestions any one OF

which require only an intelligent en-
glneer to adjust TO relieve and cure.
The Osteopath is that engineer.
In just a few moments | can easily
explain to you why and how OsteO-
patty is achieving such a wonderful
success in curing all kinds of chronic
and acute illnesses and ! shall take
great pleasure in doing so.
Just now you may have a touch OF

cahans are heir. If 50. let me tell you
how easily. how quickly such ailments

'sCitizen," whose timely and well
written communication in regard to
the city's need of park appears on
this page, takes high ground on the
question and looks at the subject from
the right viewpoint. But Citizen
goes little astray in criticising mem
bers of the park board as self-consti-
tuted street commissioners" because
they are interesting themselves in the
widening of Tenth street. The
park commission is a permanent
board, not a committee nominated
simply for 1.-THE purpose, Of acquiring
a downtown park, aud 1T falls well
within is province to consider AL
questions pertaining to the attract
iveness OF the city. Even the trees
along the highways are under control
OF the board of park commissioners.
While the acquisition OF a park
down town is a matter of first i'm
portance to the citizens and their rep
resentatiyes on the board OF park
commissioners, the supreme import
ance of the park question does not
preclude the board from considering
other matters within its jurisdiction.
TIE fact that the board took up the
question of boulevard at a time
when the general council and board
OF public works were considering the
advisability of opening the roadway,
shows that the commissioners are alive
TO their duties and opportunities.
The time to do a thing properly is
when II is first done, and if the COM
missioners thought the street should
be widened to the dimensions of a
boulevard. they were right in suggest
Ding 1t at once, before complications
could arise TO interfere with the
project.

AS to the park project, "Citizen"
takes the right position. barring, per-
haps, a little impatience at the delay.
The situation is easily explained. This
board was created after the appor-
aionment for the year was made, and
At has no money--not even two cents
wherewith to purchase a stamp. The
board has ample authority Tor the
condemnation of land for park site.
but the interdependence of the ex-
ecutive department Of the city gov
eminent, to which the board belongs,
and the legislative department is such
that an executive seldom has the
temerity more than once to incur
expense without first consulting the
general council. Questions OF ex-
pense, cost of condemnation, availa-
bility OF funds. and hundred other
details have to be considered by both
departments before the park can be
secured. Don't count the cost" is
an expression that has the ring Of
patriotism to 1t, but we have a
