spanning narrow point of the lake,
is the pavilion Or main building of
the park. This building is almost in
the center of the park and is beauti-
fully located on high point and is
surrounded on three sides by the lake.
This pavilion will contain large
dancing floor space, rest rooms, Law
atories, etc., for the comfort and con-
venience of the park visitors.
Lying east of the pavilion on a
large and level piece of ground will
be the athletic green, tennis courts,
croquet grounds, etc. Adjoining this
to the north will be the children's
play grounds and wading pool, which
is in the shallow end Of the lake.
The lake will cover an area OF APP
proximately ten acres, with an aver
age depth of six feet. The north arm
being shallow will make a suitable
wading pool for the children. The
central portion being about the cor
rect depth will make magnificent
outdoor natatorium or bathing
beach for the grown-ups, and the

be at the termination or Cherry
street which will also be the terminus
of the street railway. At this point
there will doubtless be located an at
tractive and conveniently appointed
station. On entering the park the
first point of interest will be the
Sunken Gardens, occupying a space Of
ground covering about two city
blocks, and when graded will present
a uniform terrace on all four sides Of
about six feet.
The garden will be entered by steps
ON the four sides leading to walk
ways running east and west, terminal
ing in the center, at which point will
be located the fountain and aquarium
for foldfish, etc.
A small arm of the lake will doubt
less traverse the garden from east
to west, affording an opportunity for
growing aquatic plants, and pergola
and summer house will be located
here. The garden will be the beauty
spot of the park and it has been sug-
gested that it be called the "City
Beautiful Garden,"i complimentary to

park.
Just south of the garden in plot
of ground of about the same dimen-
sions will be located the picnic
grounds, being covered with a great
variety of magnificent forest trees.
These trees will be thinned out and
topped, and the grounds cleared of
stumps, and sodded which with
swings and benches, will make this
the ideal spot for the picnics of the
various churches and organizations,
and will fill long felt want.
Lying just across Central Drive to

abundantly covered with forest trees,
which will be round in shape, sur
rounded by beautiful driveway, and
intersected by walks terminating at
the band stand, which will be located

over the locals. But in the same
half Of their inning, the Pine Bluff

chalRed up four tallies which lead
they kept until the end of the game.

couraged by the support they received
by their team mates. and in yester-
days game they backed them up 20

AFTER BIG LEAeuERs.
President Gilmore of Feds Has in- structed Managers of the Circuit to Go Get the Men They Want.

Swinging around the circuit to con- fer with the owners of the different Federal teams, following the all-lm- portant decisions of the Illinois appeI- late court and the supreme court of New York in the Johnson and Chase cases. President James G. Gilmore ar rived at Pittsburgh Wednesday.
 Enthusiastic over the latest legal victories of the Feds President Gill; more spoke freely of the outlook for the baby league.
 There is nothing to prevent us from securing those players we want now" he said We have the money and we shall go out and get the men. That's all there is to it. Frankly, that is one of the reasons why I am making my rounds. I shall confer with the team owners in all the cities wnere we have a franchise, and my advice to them will De: Go and get about 15 star players who are now playing with National and American league teams under contract for 1915. It is not likely we shall ask any of these men to come with us this veal, however.
 still, we shall place no obstacles in the way of any owner going out and signing the players they want to report immediately if they so desire. Before the season closes we will have all the men we want for next year signed uI to contracts that will hold in any court in the land. As it is, we are content and willing to let the other fellows dc the worrying"
 Gilmore admitted that there "woui6 likely be two changes in the Fedora circuit next year" He casually re- marked that Federal teams should dc well in Cleveland and Cincinnati, anc that Detroit will easily support an. other team

 This Federal league is the grand est thing that ever happened for the ball player. Why more of the boys didn't come over can't understand. 1t must have been because they couldn't grasp the situation. - But they know now and you'll see them Hopping right and left if the courts ever straighten out this clause business in the con- tracts.
 T have been in baseball quite few years and have often been fiat on my back with injuries, but when the Wards caled on me the other day it was the first time I ever knew or a club owner inquiring personally about the welfare of one of his players.
 dislocated my leg once during a road trip with the Detroits, and the doctors told Jennings they would have to take me to the hospital to set the joint. Although Jennings was on the floor above, he never so much as came downstairs, but telephoned them to cart me off as though I had been so much dead beef.
 These Wards are great-real high class people-and it's pleasure to be in there working for them
 The Federal league is the goods l have been all around the circuit and l know. You folks here in New York don't get the right dope, because your papers. always having dealt with or ganized baseball, are a little skeptical of reports regarding outlaw success
 Of course, I don't know how long this war is going to last, but I'll bet the Federal league isn't the first to fall I understand the St Louis Car dinals can't meet this months pay roll and will have to call on organ ized basebalfs war fund. Ask aVy ball player from the west if I am not right.
 Neither the National nor the Amer ican in St. Louis Is drawing enough to pay its park employees. We are out drawing them everywhere excepting P1ttsburg, and now that the Giants have slammed three straight into the Pirates. you'll see the Smoky City fans coming over to us because thN now realize Dreyfuss' men aren't there when they get up against class.

REFORMS SUGGESTED
 IN BASE RUNNING.
If Adopted It Will Kill Base Stealing
 at Once.

A plan to make it unnecessary to tag a runner sliding or running into a base in order to make a put-out, has been suggested as a means of elimin- ating the accidents which take some of the star ball players out of the game every year. This is only one of the many baseball reforms offered ev- cry year. however, and it is safe to say it is not likely to meet with favor. The plan is not feasible. and it would rob baseball of many of it's most pie turesque features.
 Tagging, or putting the ball on a runner" is really one of the fine points of baseball. and to eliminate it would virtually kill base-stealing, which is an art in itself. The rules at present
 provide that it is necessary to tag
 runner when he is forced. or in
 making an out at first. and the plan
 suggested is to have all playes made in the same manner.
 If such a rule were adopted there would be no necessity for a runner to slide into a bag, and while it would no doubt lessen the chances of injury it would rob the game of much of its at tracttFeness. Skill is required as much as speed in running the bases and sliding into a tag, and there is also a great amount of dexterity as ! we'll as danger in tagging base rum
 ners. There are more players injured in a season through Attempting tc block a base-runner or getting their legs or arms in the way of a runners | spikes than there are players hurt in sliding

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STOCK PRICES DECLINE.
Lowest Prices Were Registered in the
 Final Hour.

New York, July 24.-Reasons for the further decline in quoted values today lay largely on the surface Aus tr1a's ultimatum to Servia and the re- ported failure of the Ulster confer ence were perhaps the most important factors
 There were other causes, however, such as impending additional gold ex- ports, increased damage to spring wheat and corn in the northwest, more freight rate suspensions in Mis- souri, Kansas and adjacent states and the assignment of a local firm of dry goods importers.
 Foreign markets were again demoral- 1zed. London and Berlin sold stocks held in considerable quantities, Can adlan Paclfc was most in evidence with a decline of four points,
 Fries and Southern Railways also were offered at marked concessions for foreign holders and half a score of active issues, including New York Central, Northern Pacific, Harrimans, the anthracites, United States Steel and Amalgamated Copper receded to Canadian in point weakness, selling under any price quoted in over a score of years, and later the grangers and trunk lines as a whole went lower.
 The decline was at the time precip- itate, prices yielding easily on the ab- Sence or SnDsIantlal support. Such ac- tivity as was manifested was invaria.- bly when stock were selling off Rallies seldom: exceeded fractions and were of brief duration. Lowest prices were registered in the final hour, in which period some large blocks of stocks changed hands, notably one lot of 3, 900 shares of Reading.
 Foreign exchange continued firm with a hardening tendency to time loans, due to increased demand Com mercial paper was in better request at unchanged rates. Forecasts point to a moderate cash gain by local banks. Erie issues were weakest of all bonds. with a general heaviness elsewhere. Total sales, par value amounted to $2,02s, 900.
 United States coupon As declined 1-4 per cent on call.
