Take the Family SOARING

Next spring there will be agents
around to deliver the "air car" or fam
lily fler. upholstered for women and
children, fixed for three passengers and
an aviator chauffeur. Then any one
can ride who wants to badly enough. So
says Claude Grahame-White. the Eng
lish aviator. who has taken some very
charming girls up with him in his
Bleriot monoplane. Rumor has had
him on the point of marrying all of
them, so there Is something fetching
about his building an aeroplane that is
distinctively and openly a family affair
and no courting-cart.
Though Claude Grahame- White may
be bit Eighty" he knows what he is
talking about. and there Will be good
deal of curiosity among the other air
men TO see what sort of bird this air
car may be. IL the aviator fuhls his
promises, 1t means the first aeroplane
built expressly for giving people rides.
Hitherto flying as a passenger has
been hair raising affair for the latter.
You sat on board four inches wide
sometimes five-with your feet thrust
out over the wide. wide world and moth
ing in all the sky to hold on to except
wooden stay. which would groan and
shiver as II 1t were just about to fly
into smithereens.

Riverside Drive. New York and thd
commission should remember what ~
much smaller city, San Francisco, did
in one year when she went in for Inn

in the sum of almost SlSQOo,0o0 for i'm

acquiring land to connect Golden Gate

tral does its share; the filling in Of the
Hudson may present difficulties, as the
bed Of the river slopes abruptly from the

quite a few statues and groups.

Shooting on the wing, a- phrase APP

significance. a few days ago Hubert
Latham, the French aeronaut, went up
in a monoplane at the Boisa Chico Club,
near Los Angeles, carrying a shotgun
with him. His purpose was that of kill
ing a few ducks, at the time feeding on
the neighboring waters With whirring
propeller he frightened the wild fowl into
the air by the thousand, and then fired
his double barrel gun ten times at them,
killing and wounding several.

Those of us who have travelled cannot
remember without sharp pain in our
aesthetic souls, and also with certain
feeling of shame, the atrocious results
attained by Emperor William when he
decided to immortalize Germany's great
est men-i e., his ancestors-by busts
and statues. An avenue in an otherwise
lovely Berlin park, Victory avenue, has
become, owing to his artistic endeavors,
a term of comparison for whatever Is un-
aesthetic and faulty in taste. Are We
going to have Victory avenue palmed
off on us? art lovers may inquire with
no little trepidation. No fear of that!
A man who is we'll acquainted with the
Commissioners views tells us that moth

excitement for the hunter, and perhaps

heretofore II will be necessary, how
ever, TO find some means of silencing the
noise of the rapid revolution OF the pro-
peller. Mr. Tillinghast is reported to be
studying how to accomplish this appar-
emily difficult feat.
The idea OF hunting in this fashion
conjures up pictures Of a hunting meet

hounds In their air machines and the
fox speeding up" in his efforts to escape
the new enemy. 1t suggests hunting ex-
petitions into the wilds Of Africa after
big game, the huntsman being high
above the herds OF trumpeting elephants,
or charging rhinoceroses and moving
about them with the ease Of bird on the
watch for it's prey. 1t also suggests a
new danger 10 the innocent earth man,
for shooting from an aeroplane will not
be easy. a man may be ''potted" at any
moment I'm the season. There is also

seems as though Commissioner Stovers
plans should reconcile the public's in
terest and the company's interest.
Whether or not the company Will bear
part or the whole Of the expense OF con-
verting the two miles and half OF
tracks into a subway open on the river
side is only one detail. The main thing
Is that the smoke and the noise OF
freight trains will no longer mar the
beauty and the peace of this delightful
section Of the city. The covering up OF
the tracks will have as its corollary
new grading of the lower part Of River
side Drive Park. 1t is planned to add to
it's area considerably by filling up the
bed of the Hudson to a distance of some
fifty feet from the shore.
Thus far Commissioner Stover's work
will be purely negative-that is he VIII

And to think that we will soon wake
out Of that nightmare! The thousands
Of children who flock to that splendid
breathing spot, sometimes from the eX-
treme East Side, will no longer inhale
coal gas and smoke, but pure air cooled
by the river. If the Sinking Fund Com
mission approves the report of PARK
Commissioner Stover, to be submitted 10
that board in the early part Of January,
work will be started before the spring
of 1911 on the New Riverside Park
which will make it worthy of the huge
metropolis it fringes.
Charles b. Slower is an heroic fghter
who has won many victories in the CITY
Hall and on the Park Commission; there
are many chances of his plans being
adopted. About those plans Commits

associates are less discreet, for the
things Charles B. Stover is planning are
SO good that every one should kno"
about them.
The plans embody three main ideas:
A rebuilding Of piers in cooperation
with the Commissioner of Docks; Sec
cnd, the covering up Of the New York
Central tracks; finally, the erection OF
various monuments and works of art
along the paths of the drive.
The docks at 9Gth street and at l3lst
street can no longer be allowed to dis
figure the beautiful residential neighbor-
hood i'm which they are located. Were
il only for business reasons, their ap-
pearance should be modified. 1t is in
teresting for instance, to compare real
estate values in 96th street and the char
acter of apartment houses built on that
special street with values and buildings
I'm Goth and 9th streets. The day long
parade along 96th street of refuse cans
on their way to the dumps has done the
mischief.
A simple remedy can be applied; 96th
street can be treated as l4jth street was
the level of the drive can be raised,
and all those Objectionable though nee

reach the water level and to discharge
their loads into the unromantic mud
scows without Haunting their sordidness
on the passerby. Let a cement walk
tut a few feet, cornice like, over the
stream; let the guard wall rise a little
higher in places, and the public Will not
even suspect the presence Of the dumps
or of the mudscows.
The Park Commission is said to be
divided into two camps-those who want
monumental piers and artistic docks ana
those who want none of them, or, at the
worst, the concealed kind.
The second part of the project en-
bodies the covering up of the New YORK
Central tracks. A movement was on
foot in this city to oblige the New York
Central to remove its tracks. This
would entail endless litigation, and 1t

shortsighted indifference. All this VIII
prove relatively easy, provided the Sink
ing Fund Commission Is willing to sink
the necessary funds.
Where the Commissioners ingenuity
will be taxed to the utmost will be in
the execution Of the third part OF his
plans--the direct beautifying of the
Drive. Commissioner Slower was quoted
as saying that here on the banks OF the
Hudson there Is great opportunity for
placing collections Of statuary and mon
uments such as we see In Berlin and
London" Thus far this sounded very
good. but lovers Of art shuddered when
the Commissioner was reported as stat
ing further that "the deeds Of the COM
mon man and the glory of an our Amer
ican heroes should be immortalized by
busts and statues"

PUBLIC OWNERSHIP.
Waterbury Democracy

There surely is no harm in being
in a position to establish a municipal
lighting plant. The aldermen acted
wisely last evening in voting to be
prepared in case the city wishes to go
into business for itself. And why
not lighting plant as well as a wa
ter department? If large and small
factories can save thousands each
year, surely the city should be able TO
do so. By cutting off the middle
mems profits enough would be saved
to help out in maintaining the plant.
The corporation that runs lighting
plants gets rich and it employs lots
of help, thus it looks as though it is
worth a trial.
