States every year.
The third motion picture 6lm is en-
titled "Insuring Safety at Sea-" and
comprises the results of careful in
vestigation into the field of practical
life-saving apparatus, as promoted by
the various transatlantic steamship
companies. The pictures also include
some of the latest and most adaptable
forms of rescue apparatus which are
of particular interest at this time.
Besides the motion picture films
there will be arranged in the Colonial
Room of the hotel an Accident Proven

1900 photographs, large number of
working models of safety appliances
and the greater portion of the safety
-at-sea apparatus shown in the motion
pictures. The Wisconsin State Indus

the Photographic exhibit, and the

GRAVEL BANK AN EYESORE

That Part of the Park = Post Office Lobby
Needs to Be Kept Clean.

there is just about that amount left
| from the Chautauqua fund after pay
| ing for the celebrated arch that is to
| loom upon the fascinated public gaze
within the month
The money could not be expended to
better purpose.
| So far the fund accruing from the
Cnautauqua has been used in elevat-
! ing the roadway near the east en-
| trance, to buying i lot of new benches,
much needed, and which are comforta-
BILE and of movable weight, and in an
appropriation for an arch to cost $500.
The remaining $500 could not be
used to better advantage than in
laying out" the gravel pit so that
that part of the park will become a
valuable decorative accessory and
still preserve it's usefulness.
By the way why doesn't the park
! keep it's curb in better condition. The
grass strip between the sidewalk and
curb should be groomed as carefully
as the park itself.
| But it is ragged and unkempt and
makes bad impression on the stran-
| ger.
1t should be put into condition and
! kept so.
| First impressions are almost always
| lasting.
Or at least modifying.
And to see an entire park front bor-
dered by NANCY looking walk isn't
conducive to further eager desire for
exploration.
| The truth is that the grass curbs
all over the town are indifferently
kept. And nothing in the city's mise
en- scene should be given more con-
slant attention since they are con-
stantly within the public vision.
| This duty, naturally, outside that
portion of the town fronting the park,
| devolves upon property owners and
that many of them pay little attention
to these sidewalk grass plots is evil
! dent.
| The grass about the postoffice build
| ing is frequently in a state of neglect
and ornamented with bits of paper and
other debris.
This looks bad for the Federal au-
thorities.
But no worse than, as animadverted
upon once before, the state of the
post office lobby.
This is an ornamental enough inter
i ior and could be made more so if kept
clean.
| Rarely does it have the appearance
! of being even swept out.
TO say nothing of being mopped up
as it should be every day. The imme-
date environs of the scrap baskets
and cuspidors are far from inviting
and the whole place looks frankly dir
| ty.
Why not, now and then, also clean
out the ink bottles. and renew the
pens?
This is doubtless done when any no
| tice is taken or attention is called to
the fact that the ink wells are empty
or dry and the pens worn out.
But the public should not have to
call attention to something which
should be the part of the routine of
the building.
What, pray, is it to you?" asks
somebody.
Like a lot of other things-nothing
and everything.
1t is the truth, though, that there is
much general and unfavorable COM
ment on the state of the post Office

Enaland's Cream Ponies.

The famous cream ponies which are
used TO draw the kings carriage on
state occasions are the sole survivors
of a breed of horses which has 9th

are the direct and only pure bred de-
scendants of the famous horses of
Hanover. which George /. brought
with him to his new English kingdom
two centuries ago. The once famous
white horses and black horses of Han

was to be found.-London Answers.

up" in some way.
But without avail.
Park boards pass, custodians flour
ish and are carted to the cemetery.
Public Works officials come and go,
and still the gravel-pit we have with
us.
And constituting one of the worst
derelictions of official duty constantly
Haunted before the public.
A simple plan has been suggested
time and again-that of rounding it Off
and planting it with the same vine
that covers honeysuckle hill and which
has so admirably served in that part
of the park for both unitarian and
decorative purposes.
Officials say that the gravel from
the pit is needed.
And they are right.
Six hundred loads of gravel were
placed on the Glen roadways last year
from this valuable asset to the public
domain.
At one dollar a load, as would have
had to have been paid, the city is saw
ed six hundred dollars.
But this condition can be retained
and the side turned toward the lake
made decorative "at one and the same
time"
The bank can be entered from the
back as we'll as from it's present place
of egress, the same amount of gravel
| taken out, with the same amount of
work.
The objection to this is, the board of
! works states, that the eye-sore will be
turned toward the railroad and the
park defaced from the vantage of the
car-window.
But this has little weight since the
spectators from car windows are negli-
gible and fleeing compared with the
residents of the town, and more or
less permanent visitors, whose eyes
are offended with the yawning bank,
dripping stones and dirt, it's razor
edges extending toward the little sheet
of water. whose ornamental value
would be enhanced {, thousand per
cent by the smoothing off of this eX-
erescence.
This is a part of the Glen which
should no longer be permitted to de-
face the whole.

Burke calls it, 1.-The cheap defense and
