CITY AND DISTRICT.
THE ROCK CREEK PARK
What Capt. Symons Says on tlie Subject
In His Report.
rax LIBERAL PROVISION MADS BY OTHEB CITIES
FOB PABKH AND PLACES OP BECBEATION?WHAT
IT WOULD COST TO PCBCHAS* THE BOCK CBKU
The plan of establishing a park along Rock
creek is discussed at considerable length by
Capt. Symons in his annual report, an abstract
of which was printed in yesterday's Stab.
Capt Symons says under the caption "Itock
I Creek National Park":
There lies within the District of Columbia
? region of marvelous natural beauty; a region
of rugged rocks, running water and stately
trees, of lovely, deep and shady valleys; ste ep
forest, covcred slopes and rolling sunny up
lands. This region, yet largely in a state of
nature and lying just beyond the present city
| limits, seems specially designed by the creator
for the recreation grounds of this large and
rapidly growing city, and set deeply in the
hearts of all citizens of Washington worthy of
the name is the desire that it may be secured
to them and all who come after them for a
grand public park.
[ "For more than twenty years attempts have
been made to establish a public park in this
I region and the matter has been brought to
Congress in various shapes, as: 'Sites for a
public park and presidential mansion,' T.ock
j Creek park/ 'zoological garden,'" Ac.
THE HISTORY OF THE MOVEMENT.
Capt Symons reviews the history of the at
t< mpts made to establish a park beginning
with the report to Congress of MaJ. Michler in
1H67 and concluding with the bill introduced
at the last session of Congress which was
favorably reported upon, but did not be
come a law. Capt Symons concludes that
' the present condition of the District of Col
umbia and its evident future admonish us that
pro\ ision should at once be made for such a
park as the population of a large and prosper
ous capital city demands. The extraordinarv
natural beauty of the proposed park has this
far been preserved, but its subdivision and the
subdivision of portions of it would undoubtedly
result in great injury in this direction. Kock
Creek drains a large section of the country and
flows through the city of Washington. If resi
dences should be placed along its banks, the
sewerage would be emptied into that stream
and necessarily endanger the health of this
The consequence would be either that
this continuous risk must eiist or that this pic
turesque creek must be covered and used ex
| clusively as a sewer.
LIABLE TO BECOME A BEWEK.
'"That portion of the creek along which
dwelling houses have already been built is now
[ an open sewer flowing through the city, from
j w^K'h disagreeable and noxious odors con
stantly rise, greatly to the detriment of the
health of the people along its banks and to the
injury of property in that section, and the time
is near at hand when this portion of the creek
must be covered over or some other mode of
protection adopted at a cost of many thousand
dollars. The preservation of both banks of
| Kock creek will at once avoid this danger and
cost and preserve the existing beauty ofalanre
territory. Looking at this measure* merely as
a practical business matter it seems to be wise.
Huch a preservation of the natural beauties of
a section so near the city will conduce greatly
to the physical as well as to the moral improve
ment of the people. It is certainly the most
economical and practicable means of providing
all?old and young, rich and poor?with the
greatest of *11 needs?healthy exercise in the
open country.
otheb cities well provided.
"Twenty years ago there were but two well
advanced rural parks in America. Now, there
are more than twenty. London, Paris, Brus
sels and Liverpool have in the last twenty
years more than doubled their recreation
grounds. All the cities of the British islands
thirtv years since possessed but four parks
worthy of the name, and they now have thirty
as large in acreage as Franklin park in Boston
During the last two years New York city, which
has the costliest experience of any city in the
world in this direction, has purchased lands for
"n ad parks, to contain 8.600 acres in
?To ,u!lf !tat? Jegislature last winter voted
812,000.000 for their purchase. Chicago has
iiX rj ? ,,p Baltimore paid *693.000 for
Druid Hill park, and has several smaller parks,
r airiuount park, Philadelphia, cost ?6.300,000
Central park. New York, cost ?6.253.0U0, and
the city has thirty-eight other parks. Prospect
park, Brooklyn, cost about *4.000.000 St
Louis has a number of parks, the largest of
which cost about 3850.000. Vienna has 8,000
acres of parks, Tokio has 6.000 acres of parks.
Berlin has 5.000 acres of parks, Dublin has 1,900
acres i>f parks. '
THIS CITY BADLY OPT.
"No city on the globe of equal importance is
as badly provided as the city of Washington
with large parks in its vicinity for purposes of
recreation, in which all classes, rich and poor
alike, can spend leisure hours in summer amid
in itin'r shade and fresh air. The Soldiers'
Ho tie l on y at times subject to public use. and
never except upon its- roadways, and can be
uaed only through courtesy.
I he ground for the use of a national park
in this city can now be condemned at a reason
able cost, and prompt action will not onlv save
many thousands of dollars but prevent the de
struction of the natural beauties of the country
along Kock creek, which are second to those of
worUL ht"V aUjacent to any city in the
A FCTCBE NECESSITY.
"Looking to the city as it now is, and more
particularly to the great future which is as
sured for it, a national park which shall not
only meet present requirements but those of
after years as well, is, in mv opinion, one of its
greatest needs. What is wanted to supplement
and complete the series of small parks is a
great one adjoining it, where the resident and
the visitor can find wholesome attractions,
fcvery consideration of economy, expediencv
and sanitation demands the speedy settlement
of this question. It will cost much less to acquire
property now aud it is better suited for the
purposes than it will be a few years heuce.siiice
the march of improvements in that direction
u moving with rapid strides. The means of
adorning such a park are at hand. The gardens
and greenhouses for supplying tho public
parks with plants and flowers and the tree
nurseries of the parking commission are in a
condition to meet large demands upon them
even for a great national park, and I am in
formed that many public-spirited citizens of
this and other cities stand ready to con
tribute liberally toward beautifying it with
statuuary, monuments,fountains, grottoes, Ac
from their private means.
TO BE WOBTHY OF THE NATION.
"The capital of a great nation, where the
population Is increasing at a rate unprece
dented from causes unusial in this country,
stands among the cities having the least acre
age of parks in proportion to population.
Washington is the capital of 65.0u0.000 people
and it must grow as the nation xrows In 1HU2
we may have a legion ot visitors from everv
civilized country of the worl.l and nationa'l
pride should incite us to show them a national
P at 'east equal to their own. The national
government should advance whatever mav be
uecetaury to attain that end. leaving the reim
bursement to be gradually distributed among
preset, and future taxpayers, and the latter
would have the advantage of enjoying their
park while contributing toward it in annual in
stallments. During the past vear the city of
New York borrowed fel2.000.000 for the pur
chase of public parks and obtained the money
at Si)* per cent interest
THE ESTIMATED COST.
The park which should be purchased would
probably cost about 82,500,000. This would
take in the land along the banks of the creek
clear to the District line, embracing about
-;500,'Jcre*- To Pay f?r this park Congress
should authorize the issuance of District of
Columbia 8 per cent bonds, running flftv years
with a proviso for redeeming one-fiftieth of them
every year. 1 hese bonds could, without doubt
be sold at par. The debt so incurred could be
entirely eliminated, principal and interest, in
of*?2???**TV,>r th? *vers*e. annual payment
of W(.500 pas sum, even if borne entirely
from the District revenues, would be insignifi
cant in comparison to the benefits to be derived
from its expenditure.
AW ADVANTAGE TO ?BJOmiXO PBOPEBTT.
"The history of,other park enterprises shows
that as soon as a park is an established fact all
property in its vicinity rapidly increases in
value. This is true generally, and will be true
ia this ease to snch an extent that the increased
revenue properly derivable from taxation on
neighboring property will fully equal, if they
do not eweel the annual outlay for paying for
the park. Regarded aa a mere banuese propo
sition, irrespective of its enormous value in
other respects, the National Bock Creek park
project must oommend itself to all thoughtful
cituena. I very earnestly recommend that
every possible effort be made to secure this
park on the broadest si* most liberal scale.
Not leas than ?2,600.000 snoold be appropriated
for the purpose and this could be materially
increased to the advantage of the Dta trust
MEL WATTERSON'S SPEECH.
Hte View* on National Finances, the
Tariff, the Race Problem, &c.
Henry Watterson made a speech at the meeting
in LooisTille laat night of the National board of
trade, choosing as hit subject "The general
?ute of the country." Of money matters he
said: "What are you going to do for a banking
system when there are no more bonds to build
on? Some ten years ago I ventured to propose
that we reduce the national debt to a thousand
millions and then with that for a fiscal basis we
fund these thousand millions at a low rate of
interest and make the debt thus reduced per
petual. Everybody laughed at me. Some said
I was crazy. Others insisted that I was simply
a fooL But I am more than ever persuaded of
the trutb and force of my suggestion, because,
to say nothing about the banks and the future
of our banking system, we ought to bare some
fixed securities "from small holders which can
neither be swallowed up by a deluge of watered
stock nor be able to run away to Canada."
Mr. Watterson next took up the tariff and
said: "I have never Relieved that we shall have
free trade in this country until the manu
facturers themselves lead the free trade move
ment That this is only a question of time. I
have always believed. But, meanwhile, here
is a system of taxation devised exclusively for
war purposes, yet outlasting those purposes a
quarter of a century. It doeB seem to me
that at the moment when our public men are
cozening their wits to find the means of spend
ing the excess of revenue the tariff yields us, it
is about time we consider whether it would not
be better to save more and spend less. ' In re
ferring to the "wastage of money and the cor
ruption of morals involved in the pension
business," he said that if a stop was not put to it
"that which began in national indulgence |
would end in national disgrace."
Mr. Watterson closed his address with a
reference to the new south and the future of
the race problem. He said: "You are at this
moment standing on the gateway that leads to
the south. The wealth that is there hidden no
longer from human eyes flashes in your very
faces. You can smell the roses of new hope
that fill the air. You can hear the heart beats
of progress that come as upon the wings of
heaven. You can reach fortn your hands and
almost clutch the gold."
The World's Championship Games.
At a conference held Wednesday in New
York between representatives of the New York
and Brooklyn base ball clubs with a view to
arranging for the world's series it wm deter
mined to play a maximum of eleven games.
The series is to be considered ended when
either club shall have won a majority of the
games. There will be at least three games on
the grounds of either club. The first game will
be played at the Polo grounds today. Ihe
second at Washington park on Saturday and
the succeeding games on alternate grounds |
every week day until the series is copcludod. i
The games will be governed by the joint rules, I
and the umpires will be empowered to fine and
indict penalties precisely the same as in the
regular championship games of the league and
association. In the event of a line being im- |
posed such fine is to be paid to the opposing
club within twenty-four hours, and no suc
ceeding game shall be played under the Pen~
alty of forfeiture of it and all succeeding
games until the fine shall be paid.

A Minister's Divorce.
Yesterday's sessions of the Baltimore Pres
byterian synod in that city were entirely taken
up with the consideration of complaints from
members of the presbytery of New Castle re
garding the recent divorce and subsequent
marriage of Rev. J. It. Campbell of that pres
bvtery. The synod sustained the complaint
and remitted the case to the Newcastle PreR"
bytery. Rev. and Mrs. Campbell had not lived
together for a number of years. In a sworn
statement made after their separation Mrs.
Campbell said: "He has struck mo in the face
repeatedly, and, at oue time, pulled me out of
the bed and made me sleep on the floor. He
has also told me that I was no better than
a brute?that I was ugly, uncouth and that he
married beneath his family. At ono time he
picked up a hammer and threatened to knock
out my brains. At one time he threw our
babv down in the cradle so hard that ho broke
the bottom of the cradle, saying it was not
worth while taking care of the squalling brat.
Mrs Campbell claims that the divorce was
secured without her knowledge and during
their marriage he never contributed ?100 for
her support.
A Youthful Australian Giant.
Australia has a remarkable boy named Mc
Lean. His father was recently summoned to
appear before a Victoria provincial court for
not sending his child to school the required
number of days. He came into court with a
colossal youth by his side. "This is the child,
your honor," he remarked, amidst much merri
ment. "Good gracious," exclaimed the magis
trate, "what height is he?" "Six feet six
inches," replied the parent. "And what s his
age?" "Thirteen years and nine months."
"Well," said the magistrate, "according to his
age he comes under the education act, though
not according to his stature, so I must impose a
tine of five shillings." The boy is described as
well built, apparently healthy, and giving every
promise of beating the record of modern
giants.
A Remarkable Richmond Railway.
Hon. John S. Wise, representing the Sprague
motor company at the Minneapolis convention
of street railway people, explained the alleged
failure of electricity as a motive power in Rich
mond. He said the Richmond company was
chartered through Maurice B. Flynn of New
York, and was one of the schemes to put in a
shoestring and pull out a tanyard. It was never
backed by sufficient capital to run it properly.
The Sprague company took the contract even
before the road was located. Flynn got 531,000
in bonds and 443.000 of stock per mile. He
paid a partner *H.OOO a mile for building the
road, of which *4.000 were in bonds. The track,
though laid but two and a half years, was of
such miserable material that any railroad man
would have said that it had been down twenty
years. The cars were dirty and leaked like
woodpeckers' nests. Not a skilled electrician
was employed on the road, and a blacksmith
made the repairs. Nevertheless, this company,
by their own confession, made 4205,000 in six
teen months.
Fred Gebhard In Trouble with His Club.
The house committee of the Manhattan club
of New York has preferred charges against
Fred Gebhard, Lily Langtry's manager, of
conduct "prejudicial to the honor of the club."
This consisted of bringing into the club George
Work, son of Frank Work, in a condition ob
noxious to the members of the club. Mr. Geb
hard.will be hauled up before the governors to
answer at their next meeting on November 14.
It is said there is danger of his being expelled.

PLAIN
FACTS,
THE EVKMNO STAR to a PAPER
OK TO-DAY, not of YESTERDAY mo*
of LAST WKEK. It print* ALL THR
NEWS, Local, l)o?r?tlc and Foreign,
LONG Dl ADVANCE OP THR MORN
ING PAPERS.
This to romplcnowly true of all daseei
of news, but especially so la regard to
Local New* and District Affair*.
THE STAR ha* a very mnch LARGER
and BETTER force of LOCAL RE
PORTERS and SPECIAL WRITER#
thaa any other paper la W?Wa|toa
ever thought of employing, and ITS
MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT AND
PRIVTINO FACILITIES ARE MORR
THAN THREE TIMES AS POWER
KUL AND RAPID AS THOSE OP ANY
OTHER WASHINGTON PAPER. H to
therefore able to print each day a full
report of every transaction of public In
terest occurring In the Dtotrtct up to
Ike very hour of coins to pre**.
:o:
Dy the free use of the OCEAN CABLES
for REGULAR AND SPECIAL DIS
PATCHES, and with the difference o*
time In it* favor, It 1* also able to give
It* reader* every afternoon the new* of
the WHOLE EASTERN HEMISPHERE
for the entire day, and up to IS o'clock
midnight, thus leaving literally nothing
In the way of new* from Europe, Asia*
aad Africa for the morning papers.
Equally doe* THE STAR lead all Ma
contemporaries In the publication of the
NEWS OK OCR OWN COUNTRY.
Receiving the regular dispatches of
both News Associations; with alert and
enterprising special telegraphic cor
respondents at all Important points; aad
with wires leading directly from Its owa
ofllce to the general network of telegraph
system touching every city, tow a aad
hamlet In the United States and Terri
tories, It to enabled to receive and priat
at once a full report of every eveat of
consequence occurring during the day
anywhere between the Atlantic and Pa*
clUc Oceans.
IT NOTE THE RESULT: j|
THE STAR HAS MORE TRAM
THREE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR
SUBSCRIBERS and MORE THAN
VIVE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR
READERS AS ANY OTHER DAILY
PAPER IN WASHINGTON. It to de
livered regularly by careftil carriers at
the HOMES OK THE PEOPLE, AETER
THE BUSTLE AND WORRY OK THR
CAY ARE OVER, and It to thus read
leisurely and thoroughly by EVERY
i MEMBER OK THE KAMILY.
They know that It prints all the news,
and has only the lnterekts of the people
of the District In view, with no parttoaa
measure* to advocate, aad no private
schemes to forward. They know It, In
short, to be THE PEOPLE'S PAPER,
and nothing else. Asan AD\ ERTISINQ
MEDIUM It Is, therefore, ABSO
LUTELY WITHOUT A RIVAL. It Is
In ft*ct worth more as a means of reach
ing the public THAN ALL THR
OTHER DAILY PAPERS IN THR
CITY TOGE1 HER.
Furthermore, la proportion to the re
turns It gives Its patrons, ITS ADVER
TISING RATES ARE THE CHEAPEST
j IN THE CITY.
In conclusion, the public should bear
In mind this one significant fact: THR
STAR does not rely upon empty boast*
to impress the public. ITS CIRCULA
TION IS SWORN TO; It* PRESS
ROOM IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!
and Its BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED
by any one having an Interest la thato
examination. These are CRUCLAL
TESTS, which tew paper* Invite, aad
which those that boast most an UaS
able to stand.
ST The esteem la which THR STAR
to held by the reading aad advertising
public to conclusively showa by the Sc
ares given below.
In the first six month* of each of the
five year* named the average dally dr?
culatioa of the paper was:

regard to the advertising
