Dberhart says he will take no action im behalf of patrolman Pickles of Virginia, Minn., who has been suspended for 10 days by the police board of Virginia because he tried to stop the automobile jn which the governor and several other men were speeding to the railway station to catch a train, recently, Be The governor denies that the pa- trolman shot at the machine, as was stated in some of the news dispatch- es. ‘He says he can see no cause for the suspension of the patrolman, but does not see that he could take action in the matter. The governor admits that the patrolman was doing THE BEAUTIES OF GAN FRANGIOGD Stafford King Tells About Golden Gate Park and Its Formation. PARK 1S FILLED WITH ANIMALS Park Museum Contains Relics of the Days of ’49 and Exhibits of Rare Beauty and Value. San Francisco, Mr. Editor: Golden Gate Park of San Francis’o was established in 1850. At that July 15, 1911. time the 1,140 acres composing it was barren sand. Only a very scanty growth of grass bordered it, near the Pacific shore. But, now it is thickly and most beautifully popu- lated by various tropical plants. One arm of the park, called the ‘“Pan- handle” reaches imto the heart of the residence district. Through this arm we entered the park. The first noticeable thing was a great Eucu- lipsis tree. This tree arose to a great height and was fully leaved; but the bark was hanging in great strips from the limbs The Euculip- sis tree is the only one which sheds its bark but not its leaves. All along the driveways there are palms and other tropical plants; Little artifi- cial lakes are found throughout the park. Stow Lake is the most beau- tiful. Pine and cypress trees bound it, and on one side is situated a tiny Japanese garden and tea house. There are seventeen miles of broad driveways in Golden Gate Park, all laid out through a profusion of both wild and cultivated plants. It sug- gests rather the most fertile cf soil than a once sand-blown desert. As we passed down these drives we were impressed with the complet- nass in beauty and in usefulness of the park. There is a fine children’s play ground, fitted out with swings, and turn tables and all the many things loved by chldren. A magnifi- cent stadium has been built, the largest in America, for the athlete, nis courts. There is a most wonder- ful collection of animals in this park. Deer, elk, buffalo, antelope and oth- er American Kangaroos, fore-legged Artic foxes with their tiny short young, Australian deer, and bear, Russian wolves, and many other animals represent the foreign countries. The aviary ‘s lively with brilliantly feathered birds of every variety. The conserv- atory contains great and rare collec- tions of orchids and exotic plants. . There is a great stone stand in the center of the park in which a band gives a weekly cert. Imffediately in front of this stand is a forest of trees one from each state and territory of the United States. The park museum contains many exhibits of rare beauty and value. Relics of '49, colonial exhibits, In- dian baskets and blankets, specimens of archaeology, ethnology and natur- al history, all find a place. All about through the park, by its walks, cycle paths, and drive ways are set statues of great men. Burns, Goethe, Shiller, Garfield, Francis Scott Key, Grant, Halleck, and many other great leaders of men and men of fame, ‘Golden Gate Park is the third largest park in the United States. If is claimed by many people to be the most beautiful one also. Its most beautiful tropical flora make it es- pecially interesting to the Botanist. The many animals cause it to be vort in it. I shall not attempt to intercede. If they suspend a man ap there because of local regulation I have nothing to do with it. The man simply stopped the machine. He did not shoot at it. I shall not write a letter to the authorities there or interfere in any way with the suspension of the patrolman.” Mayor Hawkins of Virginia said that Patrolman Pjckles had been suspended by the police commission- ers. When asked what his offense was, the mayor said it was that he his duty when he tried to stop the machine but, since the matter has not come up before him officially he says he does not feel that he can do anything. The patrolman will have to serve out the suspension for ten deys without amy intervention on tried to stop the governor’s automo- bile: The mayor said the driver of the machine had been in the habit of speeding and that the patrolman had been on the watch for him there- for. The mayor had nothing to say, ex- the part of the governor. “If the man has been suspended,” said the governor yesterday, “there is nothing I can do. I shall take uo cept that if was the one incident of stopping the governor’s machine that caused the action by the police com- missioners, © animals are exhibited. | music | con- | of equal interest to the Zoologist.

This is undoubtedly owing to the unjform temperature always preseat near the ocean, and we were proudly in- formed that Golden Gate Park was Situated near the Pacific ocean, “the largest ocean on the Pacific coast.” ‘ Very respectfully yours, Stafford King. ship 53, N.
