CONNELL PARK
IMPROVEMENTS
PRISONERS HAVE DONE GREAT
WORK THERE.
Over ft Mile of Roadways and Walks
Have Been Laid Out at Almost No
Expense to tho City What the
Plans for tho Park Provido For.
Tho Final Work Cannot Bo Dono
Until thft City Appropriates a Suf
ficient Sum of Money Tho Park's
Natural Advantages.
It Is time that tho gcncial public of
this city leallzed the splendid advan
tages of Council paik and awoke to
a leallatlon of the mm v clous wink
which, In Hie way of improvement, Is
being accomplished theio this sum
mer on an insignificant llttlo nppro
piliitlou of a little over a thousand
dollms.
The woik of Improving Council paik
ban been slowly di tigging on ever slncn
It was donated to the city and prom
ised, when nil color of Public AVoiks
Km he look chaigc ot his depai tmeiit,
to continue nil Inllnltum unless some
bold mid decisive step was taken.
Dlieclor Boche tealled the surpassing
nnttiial advantages of the paik and
decided to push the woik ot Impiovc
nient to a speedy completion.
He found himself handicapped at
tho stmt bv the ineagie, It might al
most be called, absuiil, approptlnlloii
which was exhausted In a few dus.
Deciding that to attempt to secuio any
inoi e mondy fiom councils this enr
would he a waste ot time he consulted
with the pi Noil bo.iul nnd utter sev
eial confeiences succeeded In getting
the services of h gang of prlsoueis
ft oiu the county Jail to do tho woik
which councils should have piovlded
for.
OBHAT AMOUNT OF AVOBK.
The gang of men seemed nveiaged
about twenty In number and the woik
which they have done In tho past two
months and a half is nothing shoit ot
mm v clous w hen c et tain facts are tnken
Into consldetatlon The personnel ot
the gang Is const antlv chnnglng bv
teason of ptlvoners being lolensed nnd
new men unaccustomed to the woik
have to be "bioken In" evety few
da.vs. Then, overshadowing all else. Is
the one gieat fact that lhe lecelve
nothing for their labor and can, there
fore, not he expected to work with
their he.ut In their toll. Kindness nnd
good tieatment, however, have won
the clay, as the lesults show plainly.
The plans for the improvement ot the
paik were pieparcel a niiinbci of e.us
ago, but have lecently been consid
erably alteied and Impiovcd b City
Hnglneer Phillips, who Is supeivlslng
the woik and who spends soveial homs
at tho paik three chos In cveij week.
He has a suboidlnate einplove of his

Ing the opeiatlons
The pi ins piovlde for nil ' extensive
set ies of dilvevvajs and wide walks
tlneadlng In and out thioughout the
eighteen ncies of giound cninpiislng

the prtnclpdl entinnce gate. Is to skltt
the enthe paik, while the main walk,
about ten feet wide, inns fiom tho
entianco gate half way tlnough the
paik. aeioss and then back again,
winding lu and out among the locks
and tiees. Theie nie nunieious other
walk, all tilbutarj to the main ptoine
n.ulc. HAD TO BLAST BOCK
The linger p irt of these walks and
of tho diiveway have ahcady been laid
out and when this Is said. It means
that a vast amount of woik has been
accomplished, foi the reason that solid
lock is met with almost ever wheie.
Bhistlug has to bo lehoited to contln
imIIj and tho stone excavated In this
waj has been used In building ictiiln-
ing walls whoie these me neiessai.
Hunch eds and liundtcds of cubic feet
of Hist-clas-s stone walls, in some in
stances ten feet high, have been con
stituted out of this stone by the piis
oneis. All In all, over a mile of load
wa and walks have been laid out and
In pi open Hon to Its size. Council ii.uk
Is veiy much neater final lmpiovc incut
than Nnv Aug paik.
The plans piovlde for a laigo com
mon at tho eastern cud of the paik
and foi a number of huge flower bed3
and a fountain sun minded by a couit
nnd approached by a wide walk Just
west of this. This walk Is ahcady laid
out and Is lined on both sides with
beautiful catalpa tiees.
It Is pioposed to sod mid tctiace the
enthe westcilj end of tho paik lust
as soon as It can possibly bo done.
That pot tlnti hlnu just within tho
main cntiauee Is alteady finished and
piesents a most beautilul appeal .nice,
coveied as It is with a xelvety uiecn
lawn and dotted with handsome flower
beds.
The latgcr pait of the puk will bo
left. It Is understood, in all Its nat
in. il beauty. and no attempt will be
made to make It too snug anil spick
and span. Tho Immense bouldeis,
partly hidden fiom view by e lumps
of liuiiel bushes, makes as beauti
ful an effect as the fluest landscape
ganlner could pioduce.
MAKING AVAT-KS.
The walks thioughout the puk aie
to be made of finely bioken stone,
mixed with soft clay and tolled In
haul. Ne.xt to asphalt oi cement, this
h said to lie the best for paik pui

pense to tho clt, the finishing touches

Mort
gages Real estate has
always been the
most steady and
certain investment
to be had, but it
has been shunned
by many because they were so
hampered in dealing with it. Many
mortgagees, when they have at
tempted to collect their loans, have
found out that their security was
worthless because of prior liens or
defective title. A Title company in
issuing its policy to the mortgagee
assumes all risks. If there has been
any mistakes, the loss does not fall
on the mortgagee.
