Extensive improvements and additions tc the park system of the city have be-m planned by the commission having charge of the city's recreation places, and already Sept lettigrew, who has a keen and appreciative eye for the beautiful in landscape gardening, has commenced changing liom commonplace to eye-pleasing many defects which crept into the scheme of things when the parkways were first established.

One of the first changes made this year was the diverting of the bridle path, whicn oi.ee snaked down from Haybourne hill and joined the carriage way near the Valley gate, from its old course, which took it across a strip of greensward between various flowering shrubs. It was not in harmony with the surroundings, and Supt Pettigrew has given it a pew way. closing the old scar on the taco of the green with a layer of new sods. The beautiful greensward of the Elll-cotdale tennis courts is much disfigured temporarily by a long, meandering ditch which descends from Schoolmasters hill to the ter.r.is iious-. This is to carry the sewage pipes from the new sanitary to be established at the golf house on Schoolmasters hill, the pipe connecting with the tennis nou.se main and thence to Forest Hills st.

A fine new sanitary is also to be built in the Arnold arboretum, and one at the Westland-av entrance to tho fens. They will cost in the neighborhood of $7500 each. What is to be done to the park landscape? was asked of Supt Pettigrew. IVe are going to do a good deal in that line this season. We are giving considerable attention to Leverett park and the riverway In the fens Just now.

The old rip-rap border glong the water's edge there has been removed and we have loamed it down to the water and set out all sorts of native shrubbery. I.ater we will add aquatic plants, such as wild rice, sedges, rushes, the different arrowheads, water plantains, lyth-rums. blue and yellow irises and similar plants. The scheme of improvement also includes several new footpaths. One will run through the Long-Couch woods in Franklin park, one down by the old stone quarry and others in various places not yet mapped out.

Additional drinking fountains will be provided one will soon be placed In the Billings field playground; one at Savin Hill beach; one at the Roslindale playground. A drinking fountain and horse trough was recently Installed in the Fens near Hemmenway st. It Is built of wnite marble with rose-colored vein, and cost It was provided for by Mrs E. C. Johnson as a memorial to her husband.

Another drinking fountain will be placed in Rogers park. Supt Pettigrew spoke in high favor of the bubbling fountain. The old-styie cup-and-faucet arrangement proved undesirable, as the cups got lost or stolen and the heavy galvanized iron cups were sometimes used "to bang up the fountain with." as me superintendent laughingly put it. A new-style of "bubbling fountain has also been- arranged which will prevent fun-loving boys who place their thumbs over two of the "bubblers on the usual fountain, giving an unwary drinker at the third "bubbler the full benefit of a stream a foot high. This deviltry will be prevented by an arrangement of internal valves.

Some of the new fountains are of lower stature, and the taller ones will have small steps or rails at the base for the use of children who cannot reach them otherwise. "Besides these improvements. Supt Pettigrew continued, "we are to build a large brick house 206x30 feet near the Administration building, in Franklin park, for the storage of sprinkling carts, tools, etc, and will also contain a public sanitary. It will cost somewhere around 14.000. Out at the Fellows-st playground we are to erect an open-sided pavilion abcut Ro feet long for the children, and will build an underground toolhouse on Commonwealth av, near Fairfield st.

Child of 5 a Lifeiaver. With courage and rare even In pixitu of mature years, tittle 'nJ Vv KELIHER WAITS. Will Tell Story When Conry Stops. Latter Won't Finish Till Meeting ot Congress. So Long Struggle is Still Ahead of Everybody.

Hinted That East Boston Mans Name is Conty. But Keliher Won't Go Into That Sort of Investigation. We are waiting for Mr Conry to finish, said Congressman Keliher yesterday, when asked by a Globe man when he intended to begin presenting testimony In his congressional contest. We shall not be through until congress meets In December, replied Ex-Congressman Conry yesterday, when asked If he had finished his case against Mr Keliher. Lawyer Francis A.

Campbell, who represents Congressman Keliher In the contest, said yesterday that he was waiting for notice from Mr Conrys counsel, Charles F. M. Malley, that Mr Conry's case was all in before begin ning Mr Kellher's rebuttal testimony. He said that he expected to hear from Mr Malley in a few days. Mr Malley told a Globe reporter yesterday that he had no Intention of so notifying Mr Campbell, at least for some time yet.

From these statements it would appear that there is some misunderstanding as to the time when Mr Conry's case is to be closed and Mr Keliher's testimony is to be begun. The Conry people were not at all cast down over the decision of the board of election commissioners not to strike off the names of the ward voters complained of for nonresidence. The election boards action pleased the Keliher forces Immensely. They say that Mr Conry's charges of col onization and false registration in ward 8 have been unanimously disproved by a board composed of two republicans and two democrats, and they-point with glee to the proposed action of the republican legislature to report a clean uill of health on the repeating charges in ward 8 last election day. Mr Conrys friends satd yesterday that Mr Keliher is going to have some difficulty in getting a judge of the municipal court or a judge to take his testimony when he gets ready to offer It.

They tav that there isn't a judge of the municipal or the courts who lives In the district. Kelihers fi lends say that thev may ask Judge Barnes, who sat for Mr Conry, to take their testimony. If they do it is suggested that Mr Conry may object. Judge Barnes is regarded as being very friendly with Mr Conry, and it is believed that if the latter objected Judge Barnes will decline to take the testimony. This does net mean that Mr Keliher will not be able to offer his testimony to some -competent officer, lie Is confident that when he Is ready to begin his case he will he able to find a person duly qualified to receive It.

Many of Mr Keliher's friends, it is reported, are urging him to begin his case against Mr Conry. A story has been going the rounds the past few days -that Congressman Keliher intended to ask the election board to strike the name of the ex-congressman from the ward 2 voting list, on the ground that his name Is not Conry, but Condry. Those who claim to have looked the matter ur say that they are unable to find In the town records of Brookline the record of Mr Conry's birth. For manv years, they allege. Mr Conry's family in the aristocratic town of Brookline.

wht re the ox-congressman was born, according to most or his biographical notices, spelled the name as Condry. hey also stafe that they found the record of Mr Conrys father's marriage in Brookline, and that It was spelled Condry. When the in the name was dropped, they are unable to state. Some of Mr Kelihers adherents have urged that if the ex-congressman's name is Condry Instead of Conry. it Is sufficient ground for asking the election board to strike his name from the list.

Mr Keliher was asked about the matter yesterday and said that he bad been approached about it. but that he did not believe In bringing such things to the attention of the public, and that ne hao refused to have anything to do with any proceeding against the excongressman before the election board. When asked about his alleged change of name yesterday. Mr Conry- laughed heartily and replied: "Why, theres nothing in it. I bear the name of one of the distinguished and scholarly 'Four who compiled from original documents the history of Ireland from 2242 B.

C. to lGld A. Another fiit of gossip that has been going the rounds is that if the Keliher people wanted to adopt the same tactics as pursued by Mr Conry they would be Justified in asking the election commissioners to strike from the voting list the name of Daniel If. Conry-, wiio, it is asserted, Is registered from ward 2, but In reality lives inward 7. The Conry people say in reply: Let them proceed, fnder the ruling of the election commissioners all lie will have to do is to go before inem and swear that ward is his permanent place of abode and that will settle it.

ilME TO GO FISHING. Ice Out of Maine Lakes and Theres Sport at Elkins, Too. The Ice commenced to move at Moose-head last Saturday, and now the lakes are entirely cleared. The Rangeleys cleared on April 27, a day earlier than last year, and these, together with Mooselookmeguntic and Grand lake, which have been open a week, have started the egress from the cities toward the anglers' paradise, the inland waters of Maine. The outlook for good sport is excellent and the hotel proprietors and enmp owners are making preparations tor a large influx ot visitors.

Another spot nearer home, concerning which good news regarding fishing has been received, is Pleasant lake at Elkins, X. a 5-mile Journev from Potter Place. K. II. This lake has been closed for the past 5 years, and this vear the law was taken oil on April 1.

it is well stocked with bass, trout, landlocked salmon and pickerel, and the size of some hauls lias set the people thinking.

Felix Arver was boro in Paris In 3806 and died iu 1S51. He received a careful training from his father, who was a lawyer. At 30 he published a volume of poems railed Mes Ileures Perdues.

My Lost Hours The principal pieces are La Mort de Francois The Death of Francis 1, and a comedy, Plus de Peur quo Mai. More Frightened than Hurt. The adverse criticism the book received so preyed Uion Arvers mind that he contracted ferei. He was taken to the hospital of Saint Louis and according to one account fell in love with the beautiful nun who nursed him back to life and health. According to another account the nun episode Is a myth.

Arvers kept his secret honorably nod upon his death a sennet was found among his private papers which, says Jules Janin, has made him immortal. It in railed Le famenx sonnet dArvers, and was puhlislud in Mes Ileures Ferduea, in the edition of 1876. According to a writer in Figaro tlie heroine of the sonnet was the daughter of Charles Nodler, the poet. She became Madame Menneesler. The following is a literal prose translation of the sonnet ns Arvers wrote it: My soul has its secret, my life has its mystery, an eternal love begotten In an instant; my trouble is hopeless, moreover I must conceal it, and she who caused it never knew it.

Alas! I shall pass by her unnoticed, nnd though forever by her side I shall be alone and shall come to the end of my journey upou earth, daring to ak nothing and receiving nothing. As for her, she whom God made sweet nnd tender, slie shall g4 her way unaware and without hearlug the murmur of my love rising above tlie sound of her footfall. Piously faithful to austere duty she will say, when she read these verses full of her, Who can this woman be? and she will not undertand. The translator, Mary Elizabeth Wormeley Latimer, was born in london July 26, 3822. She lives in Baltimore, Md.
