Will Soon Begin.

now lay aside their dOu ubts and
fears. The three miles Of track
guaranteed by the street railway
company when the franchise was
granted them by the C.ty Council
has all been laid, and active prep
aration to begin the operation of
the line are now in progress. In
com pauy with Mr. O. T. Heard
one OF the principal promoters Of
the enterprise, a DISPATCH re
porter rode over the line Thurs
day afternoon, and was surprised
to see the amount Of work that
has already been accomplished.
Most of the work has been done
outside the business district of
the city, and omparatively few
people realize the magnitude of
the undertaking or how many
obstacles there were to confront
and overcome before the line
could be completed.
The franchise granted by the
City Council to the Street Rail
way Company stipulates that
they build and operate three
miles of road, and a fraction over
three miles of track has already
been laid Commencing at the
Mobile & Ohio depot, the line
runs north on Sixth street to
College street, west on College
street to Third street, north on
Third street to Main street, east
on Main street to Thirteenth
street, south on Thirteenth street
10 College street. east op College
street to Nineteenth street, north
on Nineteenth street to the old
McKissick Place, and thence east
and northeast to the park, which
is located on the banks of the
LuXapalila river, a few hundred
yards east of the plant of the
New South Pow Com pany.
The work of laying the track is
as stated above practically com
pleted. and the task of clearing
the land for the park will soon
begin. The plat of land to be
devoted to park purposes con
tains thirty acres, and when this
park is completed it will be one
of the most utiful and pic tur-
eSque resorts to be found any
where in the South. 1t is located
on the bank of a running stream,
and within a few feet Of this
stream there is natural lake,
which will add in no small de-
gree to the attractiveness of the
place. The ground near the
river is rolling and undulating,
and when it has been cleaned off
and fitted with rustic benches,
SWINGS and other conveniences
for pleasure seekers it will be an
ideal place for those ia search of
either rest or pleasure. The
park will be graded and sodded;
a dancing pavilion will be erected,
and another attractive feature
will be an up-to-date baseball
ground, with grand stand and all
modern conyeniences. A sum
mer theatre will also probably be
built, but the erection of this
building will not be under taken
before next year.
In going over the land selected
for park purposes Mr.. Heard one
day recently made quite an un-
usual discovery, having found a
private cemetery, IN which three
bodies lie buried. There are
headstones marking each one of
these graves, and these head
stones show the graves to be the
resting places of the bodies of G.
w. w. Mitchell, who was born
Oct. 25th. 1901, and died Sept.
9th, 1875; j. @. Mitchell, who was
born May 3D., 1858, and died Aug.
18th, 1866, and J. r. Mitchell,

A Prosperous Suburb.

The entire city is growing rap
idly, but the growth in East Co
lam bus is little short of wonder
full. Five years ago there was
hardly house east of Twelfth
street and south Of Fifth avenue,
and now this section is almost a
city wit hin itself Between
Twelfth street and the corpora
ton line there are now at least a
dozen stores, five of them being
substantial brick buildings. Both
Fifth avenue and Bell avenue are
we'll built up with stores and
residences, and ia the immediate
neighbOrhOOd there are six large
manufacturing industries, the
plants of the Colum bus Under
wear Co., The Independent Cot
ton Oil Co., The Standard Stove
Co., the Columbus Hosiery Co.,
the Arkay Stave and Heading
Co., and the Colum bus Hosiery
Co., all being within a stones
throw of each other.
Besides the houses that have
already been erected, a number
of others are in course of con
struction, and the prospects for
continued growth and prosperity
seem very bright.

who was born in 1926 and died in
1868. This miniature cemetery
is located under large cedar
tree. the spreading limbs of
which have effectually protected
the graves and the picket fence
which surrounds them from the
weather, as the fence is in a re
markably fine state of preserva-
ton. There is an old house a
few hundred feet distance from
these graves, and the men who
lie buried under the old cedar
tree were evidently once occu-
pants of this house. Mr.. Heard
is in quite a qaandary as to what
disposition shall be made of these
bodies, as he has as yet been un-
able to locate any relatives of the
deceased gentlemen.
Besides the building of the
street railway the mpany has
made many improvement in the
territory through which the line
passes after leaving the Nc
Kissick place on it's way to the
park. Three nice cottages have
been erected at a cost of one
tbOncooJ II JoIlopc ooob o,J n .or,,cr
the buildings to be erected in the
near futnre are three brick stores,
which will be located between the
park and the plant of the New
South Plow Company. The car
barn will also be built in this i'm
mediate neighborhood, being on
~ short distance east of the
plow factory
Not including the cost of the
construction of the road. the
street railway people have al
ready expended about sixty
thousand dollars in the purchase
of property. A number of cot
tages will be built, and from
present prospects Colum bus will
soon have another suburb equally
as progressive and prosperous
as Robertson S Addition.
OF course every one is anxious
to know just when the operation
of the line will begin, but at pres
ent it is impossible to state ex-
actly when cars will com mence
running. Every branch of the
work is being pushed for ward as
rapidly as possible. and it is
hoped to have the line in opera
tion some time within the next
sixty days.

Stories of Interest From the Court.

The king has returned to his own
domain after his trip to Copenhagen,
but. as long as the official mourning
lasts, there will, of course, be nothing
going on in the entertainment lie
at the palace.
The young Crown Prince Olav is
great attraction when he lamuses HIM
self by throwing snowballs at his
nurses in Dronningens park, near the
palace. Beside the two nurses, he is
also closely watched over by two men
of the royal guard, who, however, al
ways keep at a distance, so as not to
interfere with the pleasure of the fu-
ture king of Norway. The general
public has been shut out OF the park,
owing, perhaps, to their acts of over
done friendship for the prince.
The king has ordered from his civil
list an annual donation Of 10000 krO-
ner to the National theater at Chris
tiania, and 5000 kroner TO the theater
at Bergen, so nobody can justly say
his majesty is not paying full price
for the entertainment he may derive
from his visits to those places.
The king and queen have also Wis
tied the Fahlstrom theater Of this city
once since their arrival.
This week the king took trip to
Dobrak to inspect some military ma
neuvers, and later he will visit Hor-
ten, NOrway's chief naval station.
The coronation committee is hard
at work making preparations for that
great event, on which occasion Nor
way expects TO have more distinguish
ed visitors than ever before.
Norways tourist par excellence,
Emperor William, whose regular visit
last years political strife prevented,
has already announced that he will be-
here In general, Norway expects a
greater influx Of tourists this year
than ever.

FINLAND is PACIFIC.
Revolutionary Party Is Opposed by the
Upper Middle Glasses.

Upper Middle Glasses.
Finland is taking no part in the
present disturbances throughout the
Russian empire During the past year
an active anti-Russian propaganda was
carried on by means Of subsidized
newspaper published in a foreign
country, but about Feb. / this work
suddenly ceased.
The explanation given of this curl
Gus incident in the revolutionary
movement is that the middle party IN
Finland, finding itself in danger OF be-
ing crushed between the upper and
neither millstones of the Russian au-
tocracy and the revolution, threw itself
on the former, which eXacted as part
of the price for it's support the cessa-
ton of the subsidized attacks on it
self.
The Finnish revolutiOnists therefore,
have now the united opposition OF the
Russian autocracy and their own re-
dictionary classes to face, and are per-
force inactive for the present. The
Russian government has withdrawn
all it's officials from Finland, so that in
appearance it is enjoying home rule
Of a comprehensive character, but how
long that happy condition may last
remains to be seen.
In the meantime the revolutionary
Firms can renew their agitation only
at the risk of producing what would
amount to civil war, which the Rus
sian autocracy would only need to al
low to go on until both sides were ex-
hausted, and then walk in and crush
both, for the socialism Of the nation
alists and the characterization Of the
conservatives in Finland are alike OBJ
nOxious to the Russian government.
