■■ /^ rENAL. * LAW AMENDMENTS.
Bookmaking.— The Legislature in 1908
abolished the distinction which had ox
!Med in favor of public gambling at race
tracks, and ma.do the law relating to pub
lic gambling the Fame inside the racetrack
lndosure that it was and long had been
outside, save as the punishment was in
creased. The penal law, Section 956. pro
hibits bookmakinp. As ordinarity prose
cuted, th«; business of bookmakins requires
the. paraphernalia or recording which the
Kiatute describes. As state.l by. the Court
of Appeals, by Hafght. 1.. in The. People

prrhsps true that a bookmaker may retain
in hi.' own mind the memory of the odd*

in a race w> that he could state the odds
orally to others: but it would be difficult
for him cr hi* customers to remember th«
precis*? J.mmints in many transactions and
base their lets, thereon, and. consequently.
but very few bets could be taken under
*tich circumstance?. The masses could not
be drawn into the scheme and their money
< btained without some writing or entry
that they, could rely upon. . . . The vice
of bookmakimr chiefly consists in the
solicitation and in the Inducing of the pub

and planned scheme of th« bookmaker,

of odds laid on some paper or material so

In view, however, of the efforts that
have been made to evade 'lie statute, and
«^*nite it prohibitions to continue the.
business of book making-, either without re

po concealed as to make detection difficult.
I recommend thai the law he amended so

Procuring.— In view of the revelations
trial Nave been" made as to procuring and
irarnVkine in women for the purpose of
prostitution: i recommend for your con
*H«-r«tion the enactment nf whatever ad

law may make our statute more efficacious.
RMKECESSART OFFICES.
I acairp recommend that the Hoard of

in lieu of the present board of nine.
T also recommend ':;•.: the positions of

their duties be transferred to the State
Controller, to be performed by his subor

JUDICIAL PROCEDURE.
The delays and wastes which character
ize condemnation proceedings constitute a
trave public . scandal. All public officers
concerned m this matter should be solic!
to»is to demand proper regard for public
duty. Measures should be devised to pro
' ><**. mor* *-coromical and careful method*,
Bad If It should lv» deemed necessary to
snstnd th» constitution ', an amendment
should b* prepared and submitted.
I urg:» upon your attention the impor
tance of Eimplifynur the procedure of our
courts. The natural disinclination to inter
fere with th« methods to which we are
accustomed, and to avoid raising contro
versies over provisions of new statutes.
Fhould no! diseourape the effort to reduce
th*- importance of technicalities in litiga
tion and to facilitate the speedy disposi
tion of causes upon their merits. This sub
ject is encasing tHe attention of careful
students, and any measures, although not
comprehensive, which may prove an aid in
minimizing the delays of litigation and in
destroying the opportunities of professional
controversy for its own sake should re
ceive favorable consideration.

It- was Mi. Harriman's wish, and Is my ex
pectation, that this fund' should J^e used
by the state to acquire other parcels of
land; adjacent to the above mentioned tract;
and intervening between it and the Hudson
River, and in the improvement of the
whole, so that the park may ultimately
have some portion of river front, and thus.'
by improved accessibility, be rendered
more useful and beneficial to the people of
this city and the neighboring counties.
If you will kindly cause such action to be
taken as will indicate. the acceptance of this
Sift on the part of the state, and designate
the agency through which the state will
accept and administer the same, I shall be
ready to complete the matter at any time.
If it seems wise to you that the jurisdiction
of the present Palisades Park Commission
should be extended, so as to include the

such a result would he entirely agreeable

The following letter is from ■ Charles A.
Peabody to Governor Hughes, dated De
cember 2S, 1909': -r .<; '
\ No. 2 Wall Street.
New York, December 28. 1909.
The Hon. Charles K. Hughes, Governor,
etc., Albany, N. V. :
Dear Sir: Referring to the letter of Mrs.
Edward If. Harriman. under date of De
cember 15, 1909, which she transmitted to
you through me, it has occurred to me
that the conditions referred to in her. pro
posal should be set forth more hi detail In
order to make clear at this time her vi»w
as to the terms upon which her proposed
grant will be made. ..
In addition to the condition that the land
conveyed by her to the state should be
held for use as a public park, she pro
poses to add a further condition, in effect
providing that if the state or any person
or corporation under the authority of the
.stat*\ shall hereafter condemn or seek to
condemn other land in Orange County he
longing to her or her descendants, the land
which is the subject of this grant shall
thereupon revert to her or her heirs.
It is proper to say that adjacent to the
proposed park on the north is a tract of
land which ..now. constitutes Mrs. Harri
man's residence, and it has occurred to her
that if Mime future suggestion as to the
enlargement of the park should have in
contemplation the condemnation, under the
power of the state, of other lands of hers,
i- might greatly interfere with her plans
as to the future, and she would not wish
her pift to the state to be made the start
ing point of such a proceeding. She realizes
that the exercise by the state of its power
of eminent domain "probably cannot be lim
ited by any agreement, and it has seemed.
therefore, wise that this gift on her part
should be made conditional upon there
being no attempt in the future to encroach
on what she desires to retain for her own
use.
It: my conversation with you on this sub
ject I understood that this reservation on
her part did not seem to you unreasonable
or objectionable, and I hope that' the at
tainment of the great object in view
may be accomplished consistently with this
plan.
Yours very truly.

Governor Hughes sent this letter to Mrs.
I/arriman:
State of New York, Executive Chamber.
Albany, Pec. 29. 1!W.
Mrs. Edward H. Harriman. Arden, N. Y. •
Dear Madam: Mr. Peabody has sent to
me your letter under date of the loth in
stant, in which you propose to convey to
the State of New York, on certain condi
tions, a tract of about ten thousand acres
of land situated in Orange and Rockland
counties, to be held by the state in per
petuity as a state park, and further to
give to the state, or to a duly author
ized ' board or commission, the sum of
$1 .OOO.Coo in trust to be used by the
state in order to acquire other parcels of
land adjacent to the above-mentioned
tract , and intervening between it and the
Hudson River, and in the improvement of
the whole, so that the park may ulti
mately have some portion of river front
and thus be rendered more useful and
beneficial to the people of the city of New
York and the neighboring counties.
I have also received a letter from Mr.
Peabody under date of the 2Sth instant, in
which he describes the nature of the con
ditions to which you refer, to wit. that in
addition to the condition that the land
conveyed by you to the state should bo
hold for use as a public park, it shall also
be provided that if the state or any person
or corporation under it« ; authority shall
hfreafter condemn or seek to condemn
other land in Orange County belonging. to
you or to your descendants, the land
which is the subject of your grant shall
thereupon revert to you or to your heirs.
Permit me to express my deep gratifica
tion at this generous action on your part.
in carrying out Mr. Harriman's wishes,
through which there will be supplied a
nucleus for the development of a highland
park of rare beauty and charm which will
prove of inestimable value to the people
of the state, and particularly to the multi
tudes congregated in our greatest city.
There can he no worthier benefaction than
to protect the scenery of this region from
ravage and to create a public park, at the
very door of the metropolis, where may be
afforded opportunity for recreation and
enjoyment amid unrivalled surroundings
stimulating alike to th'> love of nature and
the sentiments of patriotism.
Great as will be the pleasure of the peo
ple at the announcement of your gift. 1
am sure that in the years to come there
will be a constantly growing appreciation
of its importance to the state and of the
liberal disposition and farsightedness
which prompted it.
I shall take pleasure in recommending
to the Legislature that appropriate meas
ures be enacted to provide for the accept
ance of your gift and its use by the state
for the purposes you have indicated.
"With high respect. 1 have the honor to re
main, very sincerely yours,

Governor Fort's Message Will Deal
with Palisades Park Plan.
fßy Telegraph to The Tril.une ]
Trrnton. N. J.. Jan. s.— lt was said here
to-day that -the improvement of the- I'ali
sades Interstate Park, and Its conseiuent
enlargement, as outlined by Governor
Hughes In his message to the New York
ature, would have a prominent part
in the annual message of Governor Fort to
the New Jersey Legislature next Tuesday.
The original plan of those behind tie im
proveraeal was to raise $"..000,000, of which
Mrs. Harriman was to contribute $1,000,000,
New York $2,500,000 and New Jersey $300,
f>oo, the remaining $1,000,000 to be rai^f-d by
George W. Perkins, president of the Inter
state Park Commission, which on Septem
ber 27 turned over to the two states the
park on the west bank of the Hudson, ex
tending from Port Lee, N. J., to Piermont,
N. Y. Although the sum raised by Mr-.
Perkins was larger than he expected, an
effort will be made at the coming session
Sew Jersey Legislature f o have the
state appropriate the $500,000. to be paid in
yearly instalments of $100,000.
A start toward Hie construction of tine
Henry Hudson Boulevard has already been
made. Through the efforts of Senator K.i
murd W. Wakele .-, of Bergen, in which
count) the New Jersey part of the park i.s
situated, a bill was passed by the last
I.<-jris!ature. providing for the construction
of the boulevard along the river's *dge of

made for the purpose, but the Park Com

Is adorned with satin bows and % vet in
sertions. Seal brown velvet or moire Is
used with beaver, 'possum and marten,
pale gray with squirrel and chinchilla, and
changeable fabrics with everything. Some
muffs are further elaborated with bands of
metal or floss embroidery.
The humble little beasts of the field are
not considered too mean to give up their
lives in the interests of the fashionable
woman's wardrobe.' Musquash, a kind of
water rat. and coney, a little creature of
the rabbit species, are among the latest
victims of the fur trade. The latter can
be dyed to resemble silver fox, which, as
every one knows, Is .becoming rarer year by
year. Even the bunnies are turned into tip
pets and hats, and disguised as ""mink,"
"seal" or "marten."
Judging from the wonderful displays of
furs seen at opera.s restaurants and teas,
the present high cost of living has not af
fected the luxuries of the toilet. Furs used
to be thought so beautiful that they needed
no adornment, but the present style of dec
orating them with lace and embroidery,
combining them with slik. and satin, or
using all sorts of skins In one article, seems
to indicate that the old idea is exploded.
To add to the complexity of effect, thr- fur
riers are now cutting up big skins to make
mosaics on the borders of coats and capes.
The effect is anything but pleasing, for
patterns of leaves and garlands which are
beautiful in embroideries are only cumber
some and inartistic in furs. It is to be
hoped that the Ingenuity of the furrier has
been exhausted and that the. perpetual
hunt for novelty will compel him soon to
return to the use of skins in their original
form.

CHILDREN'S PARTIES
Wealth // Little Ones Have
Dates Ahead Up to Easter.
The season for children's parties Is now
In full swing. The wealthy small fry have
dates ahead ac far as the Kaster holidays,
and many of these affairs have been
planned on a scale as elaborate as that of
grown-up functions.
The time limit for children's parties has
changed Rreatly In the last few years. In
vitations for youngsters of eight years and
over often read "from 8:30 until 12 o'clock,"
while the wo.d "dancing" may be seen at
the corner of the card; and at the party,
which not so very long ago would have
been thought too late an affair for any
girl not out, one may see very small «hil
dreh dancing as hard as a debutante. Sen
sible mothers, however, still keep to the
oldtime rule of from 3 until 6 or 7 o'clock,
and have games for the first part of the
afternoon, with prizes attached, and then
simple refreshments, followed by dancing.
The favors are inexpensive toys, and,
above all, bells and ribbons or other things
that will give out sound not overloud, for
with much noise the fun often becomes too
boisterous for comfort or safety, as party
frocks are sheer and too frail for romp
ing.
A suitable supper is chicken gumbo soup
served in bouillon cups, chicken mince
creamed, with, toast or not, sandwiches,
ice cream, cake and lemonade. For
younger children a cereal is served with
rich milk in place of the gumbo, and lem
onade is not given. Candies— chocolate or
mint— and barley sticks are given in lim
ited quantities, for it takes but little to
upset digestion In the young. When danc
ing la not considered advisable a prestl
dlgltateur is the chief amusement.
For a very informal party a •'Billy Pos
sum." with curly tails to pin on, has re
placed the well known donkey of yore. A
grab bag is always a feature where old
fashioned games, are played, and various
toy.* are the treasures therein. Usually
they do not cost more than 10 cents. The
fun of "forfeit games" is well remembereJ.
A "game party" can be made exciting even
for blase youngsters if well managed, and
at Tuxedo and the various Long Island
colonies this foim of entertainment^ and
th ■ sleight of hand exhibitions are ail the
children are mated to until they reaoh
their teens. For these simple joys dresses
less diaphanous than for dances are worn,
;.!id the chances of taking cold are les
srtned. As the liou.-s are not late and sltep
is net lest, many more invitations, too, ran
be accepted safely. ■
Fancy dress parties are a never ending
source of joy to those bidden, and the joy
does not end with the party, for it has »o
be talked about afterward, and many a
rainy day will see a "dressing up" in the
costumes, with lively games inspired by
the garb.
As the majority of children begin their
dancing lessons at four or five years oi' a.vfo,
these small atoms of society whirl and
twirl themselves about in a way most fas
cinating to behold. In addition to the deux
temps, or valse. they do Highland flings or
Spanish dances with captivating grace, be
cause they are lithe of limb and uncon
scious of their accomplishments.
At cotillons the favors are not so ex
travagant as those that the debutante car
ries home, but they cost from $5 to $7 or $8
a dozen, and with several figures and several
dozen children in each figure it can easily
be seen that a children's cotillon is not
an inexpensive form of entertainment. But <
ii is one that children delight in. especially
those ordinarily quite shy. Many a mother j
could tell of her. most diffident child com
ing home from her first, german in an ec
stasy of delight because some little lad
had unexpectedly favored her, and also be
cause she had plucked up courage and
asked some boy much older to dance with,
her. " ' '
DR. PECKS BAD EXAMPLE.
Rainy Daisies Warned Not to Abuse
Their Eyes as He Does.
Dr. Edward Sprague reek gave the Raiav
Daisies, at their meeting at the Hotel A»

the truth of Portia's remark in "The Mer
chant of Venice": "It were easier to tell
twenty nitn what 'twere best to do than

told the a.Hsemhled Daisies. •Nothing could
be worse for the eye*-. The strain of focus

constantly being joggled la very Injurious.
I've read in the cars ever since 1 can re
member," the speaker added. "But, you
nee, I have to wear glasaea. Take me an a
horrible example.
"Reading it, bed is another indulgence
you should avoid. I've always read In bed

always read in bed before me. But it's
