Its Clean Lakes and Mora Tree for Central Park Mora playground for the Children. Thanks to the appropriation put at its disposal by tb recent action of th Board of Estimate and Apportionment, th De partment of Parks Is now in a position, to Undertake improvements on a seal in keeping with the necessities of the city. Commissioner Willcox has announced details of th plan for renovating and perfecting th parks throughout Manhattan, The work of cleaning th lakes has been begun, and is being carried swiftly far-ward.

Not within th1 memory of th oldest inhabitant of New York, said Commissioner WUlcox a few days ago, have- this lake been given a good cleaning. 'Somebody started dlscusilen oq th subject, and waa decided that they wer in a very unsanitary condition. Th Harlem Mar wa covered with a green, soft slime, and a very dank, and unhealthy appearance. TnU slim has beon cleared off and workmen ar busy scouring the bottom of th lakes and bringing forth all the matter that ought not to be thsra, Tb great object of th cleaning is to make tha banks solid. It there are crevices in th banks thre ar lust so many little nooks for mosqultos to breed and afterward freely dispense fever terms.

When this work is finished th wa-ers of Central Park should untainted by disease. There has been a great Improvement in the matter of tree culture In the last few months. Only a year ago soma sort of Insect was Working destruction on the trunks of the large and beautiful trees along the Fifth Avenu wall ot Central Park. Now th murderous bugs hav entirely and the feurs of "forest lovers" tl at In a ehort time New York would have no green leaves hav seen dissipated. Never before have so many new- tree been planted as In th last year.

Twelve thousand dollars hav been srent In the rurcbaslng of yours trees to plant along streets and driveways. Along Plfty-nlnth Street now. from Fifth to Sixth Avenue, la a line of newly planted trees, robust and substantial. A Bimetal man was sent by th Department of Parks to all parts of the United States to nick out per fect specimens of trees, and If on arrived l.er without the label and seal of th department attached to ft it was refused. Another work that has been coin on re cently and will pressed forward with even more vigor now la that of resurfacing the driveway.

The kind of soil In us before the present Improvements began was called Ma reel I us ahale. In dry weather It proved to be aa hot and aa slippery as asphalt, and In wet weather it Lecam very sticky. New surface material la being useti with better results. Plans for the ground under th elevated railroad In Battery I'ark will result in th construction of a combination gymnasium and playground. The shape will necessarily be long and narrow, curving as does tb elevated structure overhead.

All th apparatus will bo modeled accordingly, and so placed aa to nt in correctly ana not block up the paths. In the hot monthe th railway above will be considered by tb children a boon, as It will protect them from th sun. At De Witt Clinton Park. Fifty-second Street and Twelfth Avenu. th farm gardens where the children grow vegetables will, be Th gardens are In charge of a matron.

Mrs. Parsons. Under her instruction and guidance the children of the neighborhood, and sometimes many from distant parts -of the city, become enthusiastic over the cultivation of plants and flowers. Older persons who live thereabout declare they csn see a decided difference in the courtesy and general conduct of the youngsters sine th plan was first adopted. Mr.

Willcox says he thinks the change is duo to the continual association with plants and the unceasing interest in their growth. Mr. Willcox expects soon to have traces at Seventy-sixth Street and the East River and at Thirty-fifth Street and First Avenue to convert into green and cool resting spots. A plot recently turned over to the department of Docks and Ferries Is that bordering on tne casi mver oeiween seventeenth. and Eighteenth Streets.

The building of new playgrounds is going on busily, and more will be begun later in th Summer. One of the largest and most important of those being finished now Is in tne w. 11. sewara rirn, tan nrosawjj and Jefferson It occupies the north etrst corner ot the park, and will accommodate hundreds of children. Playgrounds In Hamilton Flh Park, In Witt Clinton Park, and in Thomas Jefferson Park ar also under way.

Each will have a building containing a gymnasium, shower baths, and lockers for clothing, with separate rooms for girls and boys. At Tompkins Square and Corlears Hook Park smaller grounds ar being prepared. A new nark is aoing to be built before long at St. Nicholas Avenue and On Hun dred and Thirtietn Htreeur it is to cauea St. Nicholas Park.

It will not made Immediately perfect, but will only be cleared and planted at first in grass ana trees. Th Harlem River Driveway railing 1 to have a new coat of paint. The driveway itself is to have a new surface. The present surface is a sort of loam, and it baa become, through age, so fin now that it Is more Ilk a powder than anything else. The new surface la to be of the same material.

Manhattan Square the larg open price between Seventy-seventh and Eighty-first Streets and Central Park West and Columbus Avenue, will be regraded, trees will be planted, walks laid out. and many other improvements made. It will thus be del-eloped Into a square which will be as beautiful as anv In New York. Along th East River a new esplanade Is to be built along the extension of- East River Park, which extends from Eighty-fourth Street to Eighty-ninth 8 tree t. Th new walk will wind gracefully along th sld of th river.

In Central Park an Improvement that 1 as been asked for a long time Is the construction of a walk along the East Drive irons Ninetieth Street to Ninety-eighth. Heretofore those who did not have c-r automobiles had to leave the drive or walk along the edge of the reservoir. New wslks and entrance drives are to be built to conform to the change in the appearance of th Metropolitan. Museum of Art, due to the new wing. A parapet wall of granite and limestone Is to be built to help carry put tha general plan.

In Riverside Drive the same sort of change is to take place around the Soldiers and Sailors' Monument. New comfort stations ar to established In different parts of the city. In Central Park, near the arsenal and menagerie, the old station baa been torn down and on Its site another is to be con structed it is to much larger than th old on and will have more satlsiac-tory light and Aentllation. Instead of old-fashioned plumbing the most modern arrangements will be established. Near North Meadow, Central Park, another of these house Is to be built.

All the rude, cabinlike buildings hav been torn down and a three-thousand-foot aewer has been made, so that the drain, age will Ilk that of ail th city. Th cost of this comfort station near North Meadow will be about th same as that near the menagerie in the neighborhood of siooua Another similar one Is to built In Thomas Jefferson Park. One Hundred and Eleventh Street and First Avenue. An even more commodious house Is to be built in Mornlngside Psrk. It will cost about flS.uoO.

Genersl Improvements of this natur ar to made in many other park. NAVY YARD 18 INSPECTED. Committe of the Hous of Representatives Visits Brooklyn.

Hughe. th United State Consul General at CO- burg, ha sent to th Stat Department th following report on Galalith or Milk Stone Manufactures "i "At tha Hygienic Milk Supply (Hyglen- ische MUchvraorgung Exhibition, which was lately held at Hamburg, tb Vereinlg-ten Gummi ware n-Fabri ken of Harburg aad Vienna exhibited a number of objects which seemingly bad nothing whatsoever to do with' hygienic milk supply. There were shown, nicely arranged In glass boxes. combs seemingly made of bora! cigar hold er with ember-colored mouthpieces; knives snd forks with handles similar in appenr-nc to ebony; ferrules for umbrella and sticks, and ball, rings, chess figures, dominoes, Ac. also a small table with an Inlaid marble slab, and finally a number of thick slab and staves with every imaginable variation of marble colors, but of considerably less weight than reel marbl.

The objects wer mad of gaJalita milk ston. fklmmed milk, in plU of it many val uable dualities, has so far been little used; it- contains, a considerable portion of nutri tious matter. 1. I liter (103 quarts) of skimmed milk is of about equal valu to a quarter of a pound of meat. It is by far too llttl appreciated aa a cheap food for th people, bene what th Oarmaa peasant cannot sell to milk-sugar factories or ns for th manufacture of chees Is given to cattla and nlr a aa food.

Th principal albumenold aubstance of skimmed milk, tb casein, la th raw material out of which j. i i ins new pruuuvi 1 XI ore than fifteen veara a ao the Idea wa originated to manufacture various articles lik button, nanaies, ornamental ptaiea. and colored pencil out ot casein. The Inventor took out patent for a manufact- uring process, Wnica is oescnoea as ioi-lows: Fresh casein ordinary or dried curds were dissolved in net soap water; to this solution the required coloring In gredients snd a metallic salt were added. ana iirm auDstanc consisting ot essoin and metallic soap waa preduced.

which, by drying and pressing Into molds, could given any desired shape. It Is to supposed that the Inventor had found out by coullnued trials that casein by addition of a metallic salt becomes brittle and softens easily In water. With a view to counteracting this latter drawback soap was added, but the article produced thua wer st-ft and brittle, and toe invention was not a The chemical factory of Sobering at Berlin then Invented a process, th idea of whlolf was to make casein Insoluble by th addition of formaidebyde. but tbe disadvantage 'or'tnis 'invention was that the articles produced distended conslder- cKlv In Th inventors of galalith succeeded, af ter many troublesome trials. In doing away with the deficiencies ef former methods nd in nslng th good that waa In tb former onea.

for the working out of an entirely new process. Their first aim wa to make an Insoluble union of casein by the addition pf salts and acids. Th aubstance tbus obtained was dephlermated and dried, and, finally, by tha addition of formaldehyde, the galalith waa obtained. To- produc. for Instance, a material similar to ebony.

Chlch could be ueed for handles of table nlves. they proceeded as follows: Lrts- folvcd casein waa given a dark color br th addition of soot and. with th help of colored precipitate was obtained. Thla waa mixaa witn water and th thin pap filled Into a cloth stretched over frame. The water becoming absorbed bv the cloth.

th' pap contracted Into a uniiorm, firm, and dark mass: thla waa placed Ir. o)u- tlon of formaldehyde and. after being dried, a product resulted which In lustr and color waa equal to ebony. In this way a raw material la produced which the Invent-Ore have protected by numerous patents. "An advantage or the new troduct as compared with celluloid Is the fact that It doea not limits so easily and Is entirely odorless.

Trials have proved that even when kept for weeks In water It doe not dlrtend more than the best quality of but- lam norn; alter one month it had not soaked in more than SO per cent of water. Of late trials have been made to produc. by the addition of vegetable oils, an Insulating material for eleclrotechnlcal purposes." 8Ix Team a for Great Neck Polo.
