PARK AND CEMETERY. 
IX 
While no general style of architecture 
has been adopted, it was suggested by 
Mr. Olmsted that the ancient Russian 
style be followed in all the buildings. 
From the fountain court there will 
extend at angles of about 40 degrees 
with the Rainier axis, two avenues, 
leading to the lakes. Each will ter- 
minate in a pier, and the Lake Wash- 
ington pier will be made for passenger 
steamboats. 
PARK IMPROVEMENTS 
{Continued from Page 464) 
A twenty-one-acre tract at Chero- 
kee and Annapolis streets, St. Paul, 
has been secured by condemnation 
proceedings and will be improved as 
a public park. The bandstand in Ter- 
race Park, destroyed by fire last sum- 
mer, will be rebuilt. 
A. M. Stondall has offered to Mad- 
ison, Wis., a tract of lake shore land 
valued at $8,000 for a park. 
H. C. Putnam has presented to 
Eau Claire, Wis., a 300-acre tract for 
a park. 
Options have been secured on a 
number of park sites in Dallas, Tex., 
and an expert will be employed to 
select the sites and make the plans. 
The Park Board of Baltimore has 
been offered $3,500 for the erection 
of a shelter house in Druid Hill Park. 
The mattef has been referred to 
Olmsted Brothers, the board’s land- 
scape architects.

mount Park, Philadelphia, has ap-

ance and improvement of Fairmount

Warren H. Manning, of Boston, 
through his Minneapolis representa- 
tive, C. H. Ramsdell, has prepared 
plans for the development of the 
park in Merrill, Wis., along the 
Prairie and Wisconsin rivers. The 
tract covers twenty-five acres, and 
the plan includes treatment of two 
lagoons, the High School grounds 
and its game ground, a concourse for 
outdoor gatherings, opening up a 
new bounding street and a parkway 
connection to East Merrill. Work is 
insured by issuing $35,000 of park 
bonds voted in open election. They 
are also working on plans for the 
office site and island of the Con- 
solidated Water Power & Paper Co. 
in Grand Rapids, Wis., of about 
three acres extent, including treat- 
ment of mill property. Tn the same 
city their designs are being consid- 
ered for the subdivision and treat- 
ment of “Belle Isle’’ in the Wiscon- 
sin river, the residence property of 
Messrs. George W. Mead and Earle 
Pease. The island comprises six 
acres both high and low in level, pic- 
turesque in aspect, with fine native 
trees and the interesting rock forma- 
tions typical to that section of the 
Wisconsin river.
