There Ts no reason why the man walking up town from the . — stray tlio tcauty of the paik. But first, we will sod the parka and see about the short-cut later." All this brings on talk. The merchants. - 3t all of them, however, Tlalm that the closing of the parka to the countrymen will run them away. The wagon yard nnd stable men on the. street say that it will not, as they are already taking care of lots of them, and that the coun tryman who thinks much of his team wanta It In a place of safety, and is therefore willing to pay the small fee charged. Then, again. the merchants In othar parts of the city say that the closing of these parks wtll serve to drive the coun try trade away. On the other hand, there are lot* of people who say It will nqt da anv such thing, and there will bg nc ‘ crease In the trade.

Think of a man who I* allowed to run his wagon on any of the streets to remalQ there until he want* to use It again. What would he said of a mer- eh. nt who would run his delivery wagon In the middle of Cherry street to remain overnight. And If you are not allowed to use Cherry street In this way. why allow Poplar to he used. Any othor street, for that matter.” Alderman Brunner further anld that he has been trying to got these parks cleaned off for some weeks, but th# ]r-r of the fair kept the park force busy, but now that the fair le over, the force will start today and make the parks on Poplar street as pretty as those anv other street of tho city. Whether to rmss these parka on Pop lar. or to continue-to allow them to he used as a feeding ground for the country teams, hsa long been a question with which council end the merchants and others have wrestled with. It would now seem, unless some one enjoins the ehnlr. man of the committee on puhllo property, that the question has at last been »c*tied, nnd by spring the parks will present a different appearanco.

THE MAYOR. Although "Ilia Honor, tho Mayor,' ran for Ave months in Chicago, this fact wus not advertised In the New York paper*, as th* Gotham critic* often have a pleasant little way of roasting anything theatrical which comes from the Windy City.

For the Arst time In the history of the thea ter. an attraction moved from a 81.00 house (New York theater) to a 82.00 house (Waliark'a Theater) without any falling off of the business. ‘James II.

So many New York suc cesses are sent upon the road with secondary companies, that the theater goers have becorqe .sceptical and Justly, ao. "His Honor, the Mayor,” will be given with Little Chip, Mary Marble and the English pony ballet, at the Grand tonight.

Boston and Phila delphia, of three months aaoh. The play Is oonccded to be the most novel musical offering of many seasons, hav ing a consistent and woU-written stop with a melodrnmatlo "thrill," whlot fairly took* New York off its feet— tho escape from the mill. Mr. Herbert h*« provided a ocore of musical gems, and Mr. Dillingham has given a production In hi* well- known. princely style. Tho scene* being laid In Holland, ample opportu nity la given for tho moat picturesque scenery, while the costumes are de cided quaint and artistic. Among Victor Herbert'* aong hits heard In "The Red Mill” perhaps the most popular are "Every Day Is La dles' Day With Me," "You Never Can Tell About n Woman,” "Go, While the Coin's Good,” "The Street* of New York." "Because You're You." "The Isle of Our Dream*,” and "I Want You To Marry Me."
