FAVORS ONLY NORTH SIDE FOE
T. PARK

Replying to Mr.. Willard Is article in
Wednesdays Transcript, wish to state
in beginning that l may be termed one
If the "calamity boys" by Mr.. Willard
and others who are trying at all haz-
ards to ride this park question through.
solely from patriotic standpoint, J.
want to say that there are two sides
to the park and the question-thc
north side and the south side, the right
side and tho wrong side, and they all
border on Broadway.
Mr.. Willard would have you believe
that 1900, the purchase price Of the
isolated lots, which amounts to $500
for one year on every hundred dollars
taxes you pay is all there is to it; but
I am telling you that $11 500 is a very
small beginning Oh the expense that
will follow if our voters vote to uphold
the councils action on this ordinance
we are to vote for or against on Tues
day. September 20.
The soldier boys who faced the enemy
are not making any noise about patr1-
OTIS, patriotism, etc.
II it we're the custom to buy a tract
Of land in every city and hamlet of our
country in honor of the patriots who
have defended this grand and glorious
country Of ours for the past couple OF
hundred years, and those who will con-
tinue to be patriots in her defence in
time to come, the cities would all be
parks before many centuries had passed
by. The soldier boys who did valorous
deeds, are not clamorng for acreage in
city property to do them HONOR
If the money that is called for in
this ordinance to purchase those few
isolated lots was taken and used in i'm
proving the park site north Of Broad
way, we would have a park sufficient
to honor the dead Of our late war for
thousand years.
It ism It necessary to make our tax
burden and drive away home build
ers in order to honor our war heroes
living and dead and if this ordinance
is defeated, all that is necessary to es-
tablish this beautiful park on the north
side of Broadway is for the council to
take action themselves. If they are
not willing, let them step down and
make room for others who will.
1 am in favor of park on the north
side of Broadway in honor of the boys
and girls who saved the day for ou'
country and her allies, but do not
agree that we should place an ever
lasting expense and burden upon the
living to show our. respect and honor
for the dead. IT,
->,..- o. R. FISHER.

FIsh Jump 70 TheIr Doom.


Slamese fishermen do most of their
fishing by means of what is known as
a ghost boat. This, explains the De-
trOit News, consists of a long board,
painted white, and arranged In POSI-
ton in the water. The top must not
be too high above the surface Of the
water for the fish 1t is desired to cap
ture to leap over. When in position
the ghost resembles very much the
white side of a boat or punt. The
fish, seeing this white board, become
frightened, and in fear they leap over
the board. At the back of the board,
however, nets are arranged in such
a position that those fish that succeed
in leaping the board land in the nets
and are caught. The amount Of fish
caught by the employment of ghost
boats is very large indeed, and the
method has the advantage of prevent
ing the smaller fry from getting In
to the nets, as they are unable to
leap over the boanl.

HAVE FUN WITH BRIDEGROOM
Harmless Teasing by Bridal Attend
ants ls a Feature Of the AZ.
CHAN Wedding Ceremony.

The ceremony of the mirror, is per-
haps, the oldest custom in connection
with the Afghan wedding ceremony.
A mirror is placed before the bride,
and the bridegroom is asked to. sit at
the brides left. A shawl is held over
them, and the bride unveils and looks
In the mirror. Husband and wife see
each others face for the first time.
1t Is their first real meeting, says Ike
bal Ali Shah, In Asia magazine. The
bride is shy and does not open her
eyes, and the bridesmaids and 9TH
ers chaff her freely.
An engraved silver bowl is then
brought, with a little sherbet and
plate of white rice pudding. The
bridegroom drinks little of the sher-
bet and offers the bride q sip. She
closes her lips tight, but force IS
applied and a spoonful put into her
mouth; so also with the rice pudding.
A shower Of roses announces the term
lnation Of this rite. When the BRIDE
groom attempts to rise. he finds he
is held down to the floor; a corner
Of his coat has been sewed to the car
pet. There is a roar of laughter.
The offender is found-probably a
younger sister of the bride. She re-
fuses to undo the stitches unless a
gold coin is given to her. AS soon
as this toll is paid, the bridegroom
calls his attendants to bring his shoes,
but one of them is missing. Some one
declares she knows who has the shoe.
1t is returned on payment of two gold
coins, and the> bridegroom is freed
from his tormentors.
