GREAT PARK ON THE ROOF.
Summer and Winter Sport Garden to
Be Built on Rail Terminal.

New York.-Arrangemen have
been made between representatives of
the Pennsylvania railroad and Fred
erick Thompson, the theatrical man.
ager and owner of Luna park, Coney
island, through which Thompson OBJ
tains control of the roof of the Penn
sylvania terminal station at Seventh
avenue and Thirty street.
The lease is for 20 years, with a re.
ported rental in the neighborhood Of
$5,000.000. The largest roof garden In
the world is planned, to be an omen
park In summer and inclosed during
the cold season. Extending from
Seventh avenue to Thirty-third street
the roof garden will be twice as wide
as Madison Square garden, and large
enough for the playing of baseball
and football games.
In the winter an immense ice rink.
with hockey games, is among the prob.
abilities. The architects, it is said.
have assured the promoter that he
may load the roof with any weight
equal to that of solid mass of loaded
freight cars and not fear collapse
Attractions of the Coney island va
riety also are considered as among the
features which the roof will exploit
under the Thompson plans.

RESOLVED TO sNus EVE.
Mrs. Intheswim Intended to Draw &c.
ciaI Line In Heaven.

The minister had dropped in to tea,
and the conversation had drifted
through various channels to the ques-
ton of whether or not we should know
each other In heaven. Presuming that
our physical beings would be perpetu-
ated. and that recognition would be as
sured, the minister had asked various
ones at the table among whom the Bib
Iical characters they would be most
interested in recognizing.
Some mentioned one prophet and
some another, but one lady, noted for
her social exclusiveness, had not
spoken. Turning to her the minister
said: And who would you like to meet
in heaven, Mrs. Intheswim?"
Mrs. Intheswim pursed her lips II
really don't know" she said, but there
is one thing do know, and that is
that l shouldn't care to meet Eve. In
fact, don't know that would speak
to her II did!"
