Peck., Chicago's oidest resident native, has watched Chicago grow. He was born 73 years “§o His father before him coula te.) an even better story for he watch- €a Chicago grow from a h.ndful of frontiersmen, a bare forty, to the mil- wn and a half Chicago had in '71. While his father's life in Foit Dearborn was more harrowing, Ferdi- n:nd Peck has had the more remark able career. His father with 39 others n 1830 repulsed 400 Indians near where the new double deck Michigaa avenue bridge now stands. He died two weeks following the great Chi- cago fire. ¥erdinand Peck opened his career in the public eye at the age of 17, when he rode in the carriage with Abraham Lincoln at his second in- augural. From that day to this Mr. Peck has been one of the most be friended and befriending patrons of the press this country holds. Few men, his friends say, have held the number of public and qu: public po- sitions that have come to Mr. Peck. Most important of all his accom- p'ishments, Mr. Peck counts his work in organizing, financing and complet- ing the Auditorium, which houses the Chicago Opera. This was done largely anaided, Mr. Peck said. He had President Cleveland to lay the cor- ner stone, and President Harrison to dedicate the finished building. All the officlals of Canada and governors >{ 14 states attended the dedication. Mr. Peck's latest pride is the Chi- cago Woman's Band of which he is honorary president and to which he devotes half his time. The band is composed of 160 girls, and Is twice the size, Mr. Peck says, of the next largest girls’ band in existence. Fifty-four years ago, Mr. Peck aid- ed in founding the Chicago Press chub, and since then helped found five other of the city’s most prom- inent clubs. For seven terms he was president of the Chicago Board of Education. He caused erection of the fist Confederate monument north of the Mason and Dixon, and in 1896 took the first Illinols regiment of 1,000 men south, marched with them ti'rrough the streets of all the prom- inent southern cities. He was the United 'States commis- aloner general of the World's Falr in Varis, headed the finance committee of the World's Fair in this city, and vhen the fair went to St. Louls, his iatercession with Speaker Cannon in congress, his friends say, is generally accounted as the determining factor in gaining St. Louis a five million dol- Iar appropriation. A decoration was conferred on him Emperor Wilhelm of Germany, and he has distinction as the only civillan American to rank as Grand )fficer of the Legion d' Honneur of Frunce, the rank which was lately conferred on General I’ershing.

House kennel. New York, went to WATER HYACINTH 1S Rid Water Menace New Orleans, Sept. 8.—After ninetee with only varying success, Jjnterested shipping interests and government ports now express the belief that a method has been found that will solve the problem of the water hyacinth that is choking practically every bayou in the state with its green and lavender floral magnificence. The new method, which was suggest- ed by Governor John M. Parker, is the simple application of live steam. Pre- liminary reports from experiments now under way, according to government agents, indicate that the governor has at least pointed a way to check, if not exterminate the plant that has proved such a menace to Louisiana's inland waterways for the last twenty years, and which, according to government ohservers, is now threatening the fresh water portion of the Panama canal. The water hyacinth appeared in Louisiana immediately after the Cot- ton Centennial exposition here in 1884. The plant, which is a native of South America, was exhibited at the fair and its beauty was greatly admired. At the close of the fair a number of plants were taken to the country districts for growth in garden pools. When they overcrowded the pools they were thrown into nearby bayous, where they caused | heavy losses by choking the bayous | and streams to such an extent that | small vessels could not make their way | _through the tangled masses of foliage and roots which at places extended for miles and miles with no break of chan- nel through them. From a beautiful curiosity in 1884 they became a decided menace in 1896 and had so clogged a number of streams that an appeal was made to Congress for relief and, in 1899, $25,000 was ap- propriated for the purpose of extermin- ation. Since then hundreds of thous- ands of dollars have been spent in the fight, Today there is hardly a stream in Louisiana that does not become so clog- ged with the hyacinth that navigation is almost impossible in the summer months, ZIONIST CONGRESS Reccives Message From Sir Herbert, Briush High Commissioner to Pales- tine—\Veizmann Answers Grumblers.
