NEW TORK. Jan 10. f Spclal.
New Torlters are waf-hlne with
rest Interest the experiment that
la ander war In the city park depart
ment. Commlaa toner S'.oi.r. who has
rltartte or thlncs In Manhattan and
Richmond. was conirlnred soroe tlma a ro
that a radical reform was Seeded. lie
consulted Commissioner of Accnunta
Toadlca. who promised to render all tha
aid la his power.
The Commissioner of Accounts la real
tr tha Mayor's bank examiner, lie ts
authorised to so into any department at
any time, look over the books and ree
erits and find what. If anything, la
wmnc Bit ba usually de M rrobln
without tha head of tha department un
der fir S'ktnr, far Ma assistance.
Mr, Btotrer. bowerer. la very much In
earnest. Ha really wants to Improve
rorvjitlons la tha parks, and was ready
to do anything to help tha work along.
Therefora ha promptly accepted tha rery
first auaaestlon that FosdiHt made.
1 nava a man named llilty here who
Is a wonder."" Foadlrk stated, "send your
superintendent of parka away on a 3
days laara of abaenca and aire Hllty
tha Job. Ha will straighten thlnaa out
and provlda a system that ran ba fol
lowed with success."
Po tha astonished superintendent was
asked to ao awar for a while, and Ifllty
was Invested with full authority over
tha working of tha park statetn. And
tla efforts wera shown to ba valuable,
right from tha start.
Hilly Mir Ip Thins.
While no charaw of artual rrookedneaa
la made, it haa been shown that the
parka have tha most utfr lack of sys
tem that was aver heard of. For one
thlna. there la no record of tools and
Implements on ' hand. If a foreman
wants a rake, for example, he aoea and
ruya It. rhara-ln tha city. Perhapa at
that very tlma there m y he a dosen
tftscarded rakna. good for tha purpoaa
reotjlrei. that are r ln neglected In
soma barn or other building. Kven large
horse-drawn lawn mowers ha e been
found In out of tha way parts of tha
park, exposed to tha elementa. rusted
and worthlesa because of tha lack of
propar rare.
Foremen simply go out and putter
around, there being nn orders and do
aa much or aa little as they deslra. Gen
erally they deslra to do little. Vnder
tha new regime, each foreman las given
a certain specified section of the park,
and Wj held absolutely responsible for
Its condition. If he needs additional
help he appllea for It. but excuses will
not go any longer. Also each foreman Is
reoulred in report In writing r h day

Kxceedlng In extent and beauty the af
fair of last ear. the second annual
Hose Snow, given by the ladles auxil
iary of the Eugene Commercial Club to
day, attracted hundreds of persons to
the rlubroom. where blossoms were on

Vnlverslty of Oregon.
Two parades were features of the
day. Early In the afternoon a long
line of children adorned with rosea

Church Shakc-l'p Comrs.
That the merciless pounding to which
Trinity fhurch haa been subjected has
finally had an effect. Is demonstrated by
the year book of the corporation Just
Issued.
Trinity is enormously weslthy. but
the principal criticism to which It has
been expoeed. growa out of the tene
ments the church owns. They are dirty,
ramshackle buildings, a disgrace to any
landlord, and especially disgraceful when
tne present ownership Is considered.
According to the official records of the
corporation. Trinity. In tha last two
yeara haa apent IJ.IOt'.OOfl cleaning
house. It haa removed -25 dwellings,
and substituted many others, while a
number are now la the course of con
struction. An Idea of tha wealth of Trlnlt;' may
beathered from the fart that the tax

els, echoola and burial grounds.
Krai F.Male- Itrri.lon Interests.
A decl.lon of great Intrreet to owners
and realty brokers alike, haa just been
handed down by the Court of Appeals,
the highest trlbunsl In the state. It la
made after five years of the bitterest
litigation known to New Tork lowyers.
The rase Is that of TL. Tanenbaum,
Straus ex Company against Hohem ft
form to recover commissions. The
brokers were s.ked to secure a tenant
for certain Fifth avenue property, owned
try the defendants, and brought about a
meeting between the owners and I'est
6 Company. Mr. Pall, of the latter
firm, agreed orally on the terms of the
l.ee at a prolonged meeting, and It was
then left to the lawyers of the reapee
tive parties to draw up the paprs. Sub
sequently there was a mlxup. and the
lease was never consummated- Then the
broker sued for the commission. 122.
J'v. 1 per cent of the amount of rent
Involved.
The highest court upheld them, set
ting down the rule that they had done
their part by bringing the Interested
parties together, and that a failure to
algn a Iraae was not the fsult of the
brokers. Thla doctrine haa long been
applied In rases of tha sale of real es
tate, and the logical extension of It In
the matter of lenses la regarded by
lawyers aa a matter of great Importance
to the real estate Interests of New York.'

way. He Is a Jaunty young man with
ultra-English clothes and a Piccadilly
accent. The chaaffeur of a taxlcab had
htm arrested on a charge of failing to
pay 114 after a night ride through the
city.
If Hearn had been a bright, manly
young fellow, the chances are that he
would have been compelled to pay up.
Put he got the court s ."goaf" right at
the start.
First, he called Magistrate Stelnart
"My deah fellow."" and was promptly
rebuked. Then he explained that he had
paid the bill once and added:
"But you might as well go ahead and
fine me. Tm tired of explaining the
matter to you. and I would prefer to
pay the paltry fine."
"No," said the magistrate sharply, "I
don't care much for your style, but I
am no, going to fine you. It Is your
word sgainst that of the chauffeur, and
It eeenie to me that he assumed conaid
srable risk when he ;et you get into
the taxlrab to start with. Had I been
In his place I would not have let you
ride at all. or If I needed the money very
badly would have Insisted upon your
paying In advance.
"My word." remarked young Mr.
Hearn, aa he sauntered out of court-
Dreamland Is on Market.
An effort la cow under way to bring
about by tha city the purchase of the
Dreamland site at Coney Island. Since
the great fire there the Dreamland peo
ple have simply been marking time, hop
ing thalt some action will be taken by
the city. For the amusement men do
not want to rebuild. They have lost
money every year since the big resort
was opened, and, while they are not
saying so. would welcome with open
arma any opportunity to recoup to aome
extent.
At present the city only owns a small
stretch of beach, where some public
bath-houses are being erected.
Advocates of extenslonfavor taking by
purchase or condemnation practically all
the shore front of Sea Girt. It would
cost a good many million dollars, hut,
of course, that la only a mere Item.
There Is a possibility that the Dream
land site may be acquired, but even
that Is doubtful. At present all the
spare change the city haa is needed or
subways if thy are ever going to be
built, and the authorities who will set
tle the fate of the Coney Island exten
sion are much opposed to assuming new
responsibilities at the present time.
Still this does not prevent several
newspaper "crusades" and any number
of interviews from well-meaning citi
zens, who heartily approve of the pro
Ject. because it gives them a' chance to
be "public spirited" without the expend
iture of one cent of their own money.
