PURCHASE OF
TRoTT|NG PARK
Citizens Who Have Subscribed
For Stock in New Company.

AS has already been stated in the
Journal an earnest movement is now
in progress in our city to secure the
money necessary to purchase the
trotting park property. The idea Is
to have this convenient and admirably
located field held by a stock company
for permanent use as an athletic and
recreation park. The importance of
this movement will be appreciated by
all, and we believe that our citizens
generally will be glad to help this good
work along. The Journal is only too
glad to do what it can to assist this
good cause, and that it's readers may
keep in touch with the progress of the
work, will publish from day to day,
the names of those who have sub
scribed for the stock. The list to date
stands as follows:
