joTS OF SKATING.
ff tli Weather Permits-TV. J. Bjrn
jessed Anthraelte Park-Will Flood It.
'There has been great fear In the
flearti of the devotees of skating in
this city that they could not enjoy their
favorite sport this winter on account
ol the lack of any place to skate.
.Last winter the owners of Anthracite
Jrk had It flooded, and that it was a
fod. Idea was evidenced by the great
number of people who dally. -went to
the park to skate. For some reason,
Best known to themselves, they decid
ed that they would not have the park
fixed up this winter. This was a great
disappointment to all, for It is the only
place on which to skate. However,, all
fears 'are put at rest by the announce
ment that W. J. Bryne has leased the
park for the winter, and will make it
Into an artificial skating pond. The
plan for Its flooding is much better
than used last year, and It can be
done more thoroughly. .A well will be
sunk several feet below the river bed.
Into which the water will flow and
be forced Into the basin by steam
pumps. An area of three or four feet
Will flooded at first and if the busi
ness is good it will be enlarged. The
urface of the ice will be kept In a
food condition' and will be refrozen
when roughened by use. Wires will be
run In from the electric road, and the
pond will be brilliantly lighted by
electricity each evening.

rons that they will this year hold to their usual custom
