The resolutions were ln- troduced by Mrs. Carrington Mason, S resident of the Sarah Law chapter, of [emphls, Tenn. She offered them, she said, In behalf of more consideration for th# veterans. Reunions, she said, apparently are no longer for the enter, talnment of the veterans, but rather for tho entertainment of the sponsors and maids of honor. The Georgia division reported that subscriptions are pourlilr In for i monument to Keeper Wire, of tho An dersonvllle prison, who was convicted and hanged without trial by Federal authority, and who was " vindicated. protests were many and the answers were caloric. P. F. Smith was the first to voice his protest. He said he owned 400 feet on Rhodes street, that he had bought for manufacturing purposes, and that If the company Is allowed to permanent ly close the street, as planned, the land would be useless for that purpose, “Suppose It was.Peachtree street the company wanted to cloee,” exclaimed Mr. Smith, “how long would you con sider- It?

Which has belonged to his client for thirty-five years. He said he In tended to prove In the courts that the Gate City Terihlnal Company was not a railroad and could not condemn property.

FOLSOM. This summer In the month of August, while spending a few days In the city of St. Paul. Minn., I took occasion to examine Into the public comfort ar rangements of that city, not only for my own Information, but in order to report on same to the Atlanta Socio logical Society, nt the Instance of .Dr. Klme. St. Paul’s experience, and the re sults attained. In arranging public play grounds and public baths, with the lo cation of same Immediately adjacent to the business district, has been partic ularly happy. The absence uf Inex pensive places of diversion, ln the down-town district In Atlanta—where the Influence Is thoroughly good—Is so obvious that a consideration of the needs and prospects of procuring such things here should lie quite apropos, In 1839 Dr. Justus Ullage, Nt. Paul'i baths and refreshments seem ridicu lously low. Two Cents for a Bath. Would you enjoy a bath? Go to the cashier's office nml buy a bath check— none of the attendants handle any of the money spent here. For this check a bath house attendant will supply you a cake of soap, a towel and a bathing suit. I did not say wjmt you paid for all these ucroutcrnients of the bath— It was 2 cents. However, you urc only entitled to use the public dressing room at this price. This room Is utilised by some of the newsboys and by street Perhaps youi for more seclusion, if so. you may eti gugc tho use of a private dressing room—a small Inclosed booth with n locker for your clothes. Special priv ileges always come high. In this case the price is more • than doubled—you are charjcd 5 cents. The hath over, you seek the refresh ment pAvlIlon. a gluts of milk and of"ou h tu™' n t’o ta a7 n ra , cZ n .

In St. Paul, the majestic Mississippi runs through the city and Immediately past the busi ness district; the city linll Is less than three blocks from the river. In the stream at this point Is n narrow low- lying island upward of 1,300 yards in length, Harriet Island. For several reusnns, which wjll be come obvious further on.

The nppcuiT.ncc of the island at that In 1 ' time was anything hut Ihvlting, being little more thnn a sand bar with some trees and considerable undergrowth.

Representing the Gate City Terminal Company at the meeting wi ere Preston Arkwright, president; Morris Brandon, attorney, and Engineer McDonald. Mr. Arkwright's Stand. Mr. Arkwright delivered an Impas stoned speech, charging that an at' tempt was being made to hold up the company. "You can't ex pet t a big enterprise without causing Inconvenience to some one. We want to cause just as little as possible. We will do anything you think Is Just and rr .. We don't warit to Injure anybody. Wo would rather billhl up a man's prop erty thnn Injure it' It is true that wa SUCKED AN ACORN IN IIIS WINDPIPE that the petition says we do. I ox> plained that to you orally when I pre sented the petition. IVe intend to got this property, however. We will have to get It. Un less we succeed In Acquiring these two pieces of property, the enterprise Is blocked right there. An attempt Is be ing made to hold up the company. “Gentlemen, our; charter allows us only two years In which to build this railroad. It will take eighteen months, at least, to do It. We are going to be stopped enough bj- Injunctions and other proceedings. ;L#t us get. to work. Don't hold us back hny longer. “You say how |ve shall cross the streets and we'll dq as you say. Then, every man whose property la damaged In the least from uS can recover In the courts.” The committee adjourned to meet again next week. tne healthiest city In the world, ex' plained, argued, entreated. The public wagged Its head. Dr. Ohage? No. he Is not Irish; In fuel, his only Hibernian Characteristics are the sound of his name, and hjs pertinacity, otherwise, he Is a thoroughgoing German of the best type that comes from the Father- land. , The redoubtable doctor advanced over 37,000 of his own private means to Inaugurate the work of changing u worthless patch of ground Into a beau tiful park. ln October, 1399, a crew of men were set to work clearing the Island of un derbrush. erecting suitable buildings In tbs way of bath houses, refreshment pavtlinip. out-duor gymnasium# sne Play grounds. Skirting the east side uf the Island Is a fine bar of sand over which the river water flows nt a depth suitable for bathing. It Is upon this tract of water that the bath houses freshments proportionately low. vlted to lunch one night with Dr. Ohage, nt the Island employees' eating house. I noticed how wholesome und well-prepared were all the viands. All food" used here nrc Inspected by the health department. We now came to that ever-recurring question—tlmt grating question of the unesthetlc, utilitarian American clti- xen: Does It j«iy? Is It not n good In vestment for St. Paul? Firxt Seaxon Showed Profit. The Island Park wna conducted the 1 first year nt Dr- Ohage's personal risk and expense. The close of the season showed a profit of 115.12. thus demon strating the project to l>e self-sup porting. The ensuing year saw public apathy changed to condrete Interest. Publlc-sjilrtted cllixcii# contributed lib erally ntfil school children, at a penny each, raised some seven hundred dol lars; a total of twelve thousand dol lars’ worth of Improvements wore paid for.and the whole turned over to the city, free of debt. The total number of those who. the first year, patronised the public baths alone was 236,018 persons. It Is esti mated that at least five Individuals visit the grounds to every one who uses the hath privileges. Thus those who en joyed the park numbered over n mil lion. The past summer, up to August 23—the last day of my visit—the psl- rons of the baths had reached the num ber of 243,746. The day before (Au gust 23) the number using the hatha on that one day were 7.057; 2,050 of whom were women and girls. Ill-Conduct Infrequent While spending nn uftemoon nn the Island In company with Assistant Health Commissioner F. W, Dames, I remarked on the orderly conduct und seeming good fellowship of the large number of boys who were enjoying the use of the outdoor gymnasium. Mr. Dames Informed me that uncivil con- duct or the Infraction of uny of the rules of the resort, on the pnrt of the hoys, was extremely rare; und thut tin- only punishment meted out to the of fender.was to simply bullish him from the pork for u few days, The very furl that such punishment proved effective Is evidence of tho popularity of the public play grounds tn the minds of the boys. Indeed, t'lilef Probation Officer A. L. Graves told me that a noticeable lessening In the number of Juvenile of fenders nhvuj's occurs coincident with the opening nnd operation of the public Comforts on Harriet Island- Hus It paid? Yes.
