BRANDYWINE PARK LIVELY
THESE DAYS WITH HAPPY
CHILDREN WHO ENJOY NATURE

While in this city on Wednesday
Dr. Werner Hegemann. Of Berlin,
Germany, who has travelled exten-
sively and is noted for his ideas on
city planning. evinced admiration for
she Brandyw'ne, the natural park Of
Delaware within a stones throw OF
the homes OF thousands Of citizens OF
this CITY And. strange to say, the
parks with It's acres of fields and
Woodlands skirting each side of the
historic creek appears TO be neglected
b. the citizens in their search FOR
r.odern enjoyment This is borne out
by the small number of people who
are to ue fcuLd strolling through the
park Or resting on the benches.
At prcsen. the park is the gather
ing place of thousands Of school chill
dren. who having no school this
week. aaNe been holding wood par
ties there. Yesterday was the BAN
ner day, more ihar one thousand
children being scattered about the
lands. That their outing was bene-
fetal was attested to last evening by
many mothers as they tucked the
Youngsters in their beds, tired, but
with pheasant memories of bunnies
and SQUIRRELS which they. could not
catch. of the violets and forget-me-
nots they gathered and the feast OF
colors their eyes behold in the dog
wood blossoms, al Judas trees.
Those boys, who had taken fishing
lines on their outing magnlhed the
minnows several times as they told
the folks at home how large the iish
we're that they lost.
To say what section Of the vast
park was most popular would be
task, the ldddies being here, there
and everywhere. and while the ma
lority had the watchful eyes Of their
mothers or older sisters on them, al
an times. they were allowed untold
liberties and not one accident of any
sort was reported. The various park
suards on duty had little TO do, tho
children not being mischeviously in
elined.
The large hill west OF the Zoo pro
gided amusement for hundreds OF
children during the afternoon, they
spending much time in climbing the
hill and then rolling on the grees'
ward to the lowlands On top of the
hill those who cared for the national
pastime, had baseball diamonds on
all sides and many bitter contests
we're settled by teams composed, OF
who knows but future National stars
To cater TO the followers of the horse
hide a large athletic field is now be-
ing prepared along West Eighteenth

MASSEY IS BACK
IN THE HARNESS
PRACTICING LAW
WILL NOT RETURN TO WASH.
lNGToN TO COMPLETE REST
OF HIS SERVICE

Senator W. A. Massey, who says
he feels better than for years past,
has stepped back into the old har-
ness and again began the practice
of law after his return Monday from
Washington, d, G. He left Wash
ington December 20, stopped in New
York where he experienced all the
joys of a bowling blizzard which
blocked all surface traffic until Xmas
eve, and went to Los Angeles, re-
naming there until New Years eve,
since when he was in San Francis
co until Saturday.
The senate this session, Senator
Massey states, is considering no leg
islation which it does not absolutely
have to consider, its time from 1880
to 6 o'clock each day being taken
up with the Archibald impeachment
proceedings. leaving but an hour and
a half for regular legislation.
He is of the opinion that his 50O,-
600 acre land grant bill, giving the
state government land to be sold
for the benefit of the university thus
encouraging the settling up of ag
ricultural districts, could be pushed
through to its passage if a personal
fight was carried on in the commit
tee and before the senate. The bill
/ he introduced to quiet title to town
/ lots in Lovelock, Winnemucca and
Elko, comprising the business por-
tions Of these cities, apparently has
good chance of passage. Another
bill of great Importance is one to
protect locators of mining claims
upon land within the boundaries of
railroad land grants Senator Massey
has been informed the railroal would
approve of a measure to prevent con-
flicts hereafter The bill would pre-
vent railroads from gaining title to
land upon which mineral claims have
been duly located
Dwight Jones of Reno, Senator
Massey's secretary, will remain in
Washington as secretary of the com
mittee on mines and mining until
the end Of the session. He has been
II years in Washington, as secretary
of Senator Nixon and assistant sec
rotary to Senator Platt
Senator Pittman, who viii succeed
Senator Massey, will leave for Wash
! ington during the latter part of this
. month AS soon as the Legislature
formerly elects Senator Pittman tC
the office for which ne was the
, choice Of the people at the recent
election the senator will take his de
] parture.

this morning outside the city limits
above the ball grounds. The par
tieipants were w. p. Sollender and
Win Walker AT the end the bout
was declared a draw although both
men claimed to have the best of the
proceedings.
The fistic argument was the re.
suit Of Walkers interference in a
fight last summer between Sollender
and another party Walker, as a
deputy chief of police, stopped the
fight and incurred the enmity Of
Sollender The latter declared that
as soon as Walker severed his con
nections with the police office, he
would seek revenge.
This morning Sollender hired an
automobile and soon met Walker.
The latter was invited to take a trip
outside the city limits and promptly
accepted the invitation The strip
was a joyous one Walker and Sol
lender were seated IN the machine
with backs to each other Not 2
