ANOTHER PARK
FOR THE CITY
jackson Street Site to be
Playground; Bath House for
COlOred Residents

The members of City Council, in
committee meeting last night, which
was attended by William P. Bancroft.
president Of the park board, discussed
various park propositions and finally
agreed to purchase the land on Jack
son street, between Second and Third,
to be converted into a playground and
also to purchase land and establish a
public bath house for the negro resi-
dents at Sixteenth and Walnut streets
along the Brandywine, Greek.
The site on Jackson street is the
place where Councilman Haney has
been endeavoring for sometime to
have located the playground. The
place will cost about 100000. The
bath house for the negroes is a vic
tory for Councilman Hopkins, who
has been striving for some time TO get
such a place for the people of his
race, not only in the Sixth ward, but
from all parts of the city. This work
and the paving of the Maryland ave-
nua triangle. Together with the re-
ourbing OF the Boulevard and Six
teenth street, which was agred upon,
will total $4,000.
At the weekly meeting Of Council
tonight, probably, an ordinance will
be introduced providing for a bond
issue in this amount with which to
cover this expense.

HuERTA AND WILSON.

PRESIDENT HUERTA OF Mexico seems determined
4 to make of himself the most unpopular executive
that country has had. His assumption Of both
executive and legislative powers presumably thS
purpose Of making the elections on October 20 a
mere farce has placed his discredited provincial gov
ornmont in position than it has yet occupied
The Hueria administration baptized with the blood
oi the murdered Maderos Since then it has been
tainted with BRUTALITY and gross ncapacy, which
reached their elimination in the outrages perperaed
against the Mexican Congress, the suspension OF the
constitution and the establishment dictatorship
with Huerta the dictator
Huerta Mas given to Wson-Bryan diplomacy slap
in the face. President Wilson and Secretary Bryan
thought they had gained through the negotiations
John Lind. assurances that Huerta would eliminate
himself from the Presidential campaign and cooperate
with this country IN the work Of bringing about the
election Of FREDERICK Gamboa as President at fair
and free election this month The action of President
Huerta in dissoving Congress, imprisonng its
bers suspending the constitution declaring him
self dictator upset all the plans Of the Democratic
administration I'm Washington. II Is surprising.
therefore, that President Wilson and Secretary Bryan
have sent notes of protest to President Huerta and
ntimated plainly to him they will not recognize
government elected the 26th Of this month under
such outrageous conditions seemingly will prevail
Huerta is proving himself to be veritable bull in
the Democratic diplomatic china shop and everything
indicates that he has broken away entirely from the
leading strings which President Wilson sought to
place upon him through his personal envoy john Lind

Rhodes appreciated it so hlgh'y ne

Groote Schuur.
Groote Schuur, by the way was an
expensive place to maintain. ana
when occupied the expenditure
amounted to 1000 pounds month";
Rhodes lions costing 15O pounds
year for meat alone. Though Rhodes
never intended jameson to rush from
Pitsani to johannesburg like fill
clustering invader" he did hope that
KrHger's hand might be forced to
show force on the border; but the
reforms having been brought about
without bloodshed after Jameson s
surrender he shut himself up and for
DAYS was as a man distraught. 1t
was Jameson's failure that upset
Rhodes: he would keep on repeating:
what Jameson should have done,
once he had started. was to have sad
died up at that last store where they
had sardines, and gone on the twelve
miles into johannesburg, instead Of
waiting" Or he would chuckle and
say that It was very nearly success,
and add: "Of course, the proper
course would have been for jameson
TO put his bag on the train and gone
to the johannesburg races. He was
sure that "if Jameson had been in, or
had got to johannesburg, everything
would have been accomplished HIS
faith in Jameson was unbounded.
There was some appalling lying
about the preparations for the raid,
and he generously added that IL ws a
pity that there was not more secrecy.
Never was Rhodes judgment more
at fault than over the South African
war. To the very end he did not be-
lieve that there would be any war at
all He was either convinced that the
Beers were playing a game OF blum
or else he deliberately misled the peo-
pie at home in England. He wrote
and cabled' his opinion that Kruger
would not fight: Remember Kruger
will climb down. He will never fight,
he wrote to Alfred Bert Nothing

individuals Rhoades liked the Dutch

him personally.

Evening journal., 1913-10-16

II is more than eleven years ago
since Cecil Rhodes died, with the
words 80 little done; SO much to do"
upon his lips, but the public still
awaits a full and authenic life of the
man because of the opinion of his
trustees that the time Is too recent
for the completed story. Cynics have
fed their humOr by imagining what
the course Of the worlds history
might have been If Cleopatra's nose
had been longer or shorter; they
might find further food for thought in
speculating what the history of South
Africa might have been if Cecil
Rhodes had not believed that he re-
sembled the Caesars, and if the shades
of Napoleon and Give had not haunt
ed his mind
The Caesar destiny evidently was
much in his mind He carried abont
with him a marked copy of the "Medi
tations OF Emperor Marcus Aurelius."
Gibbon was his favorite reading and
Plutarch's Lives" was a source Of
endless pleasure. His library at
Groote Schuur.' his splendid Cape
Town home contained "the private
historians of the Roman Emperors
and Empresses," while hes commits
stoned antiquarians to obtain for him
translations of the authorities quoted
by Gibbons In his decline and Fall"
in absolutely unabridged form. These
volumes all calculated to make cir
culating library censors turn pale,
we're all typewriter, the originals
owing to their rarity, not being OBJ
tainable.
Rome likewise affected his dramatic
taste. He was not overfond of the
theatre, and when he did go there
were complaints Of his talking audibly
all through the performance. The
only play he was impressed by was
Berebohm Trees production OF" julius
Caesar" This imperial exception is
amusingly illustrated in Rhodes re-
ply to somebody, who asked him If he
ever read Dickens, that he was not in
terested in the class Of people Dickens
wrote about
Big in everything, Rhodes was val
liant trenchman. One might almost call
htm a gross feeder He liked getting the
Joint in front OF him and cutting of
great hunks Of meat. Though no drunk
ard he also liked his champagne in a
tumbler. tossed of the glass absent
mindedlv. and would have five or six
liqueur glasses OF his favorte "Sueml
mel after meals. At II in the morning
he usually like Bismarck) had a BACON
of champagne and stout, or light Pilse-
ner beer; Pilscner or hook for lunch, and
with the exception Of gin-and-soda
sometimes at sundown, nothing until
dinner. After that meal he often sat at
the diningrocm table, talking and
smoking innumerable cigarettes until
bedtime.
s. a brewer once sent Rhodes couple
of dozen bottles of very old and very
