ATHLETIC PARK A
FISH CEMETERY

Athletic park, the scene of many
baseball battles, marathon contests
and evening entertainments has played
it's friends a sad trick in the past few
weeks: and, incidentally has proved
itself to be as now laid out, only a
dry-weather sports field.
When the rains started in, the field
became soggy and, later on, the little
park sank beneath the water Still
later. when the winter storms appear
ed in real earnest, the water rose high
Grand big Chinese catfish, from
neighboring pond and bitches, took
possession of the baseball diamond.
The track between the bases was their
favorite promenade, while Gibsons
box in the center was kind of obser-
vatory for the lazy, piscatorial invad-
ers.
The Chinese Athletic Club had failed
to win the championship of the base
ball season; but the Chinese catfish
mad regained mastery of the diamond.
When the waters subsidized Gas it has
done at frequent intervals between the
foods) dozens of these catfish have
been left to die on the baseball field.
For weeks the baseball field has been
unservicable on account of the mud or
water. The experience has been good,
however for the owners will take ad-
vantage of the first dry spell to do
what should have been done in the
first place-raise the level of the fielo
and put in an adequate system for
draining the park.
