changed greatly and rich mining property can be worked on a large and practical scale. The ministry of public works has extensive plans for opening ports, roal construction, building new bridges and embankments, dredging rivers to make them navigable, hydraulic agriculture and irrigation and public works to bo started in Mesopotamia. These represent the expenditure of a vast capital, and there seems no reason why Americans should not seize the opportunity for an apparently good investment. That they should not be slow to do so Is the special agent's opinion. "Information concerning those attractive fields, is," he says, "finding its way into Europe, and delays on the part of American capitalists will mean that the most valuable and desired concessions, franchises and contracts will hi allotted to others. Owing to the neti trality of the United States in the po Htical situation, the government, while impartial, is naturally desirous of seeing American capital invested here, and Americans desiring to participate in this development can be assured of re celving fair treatment."

THE NEW TURKEY American capitalists who seek a field abroad for investment of their money, or American manufacturers who wish to extend their trade in that direction, will find words of encouragement in a consular report sent the state department from Constantinople by Special Agent Jufen L. Brode. According to Mr. Brode, the Youn.3 Turks party, now In the ascendent, U a earnest and determined in a campaign for the development of Its country along the broadest lines of progress as it was In ending the brutal and repressive regime of Abdul Hamid, under whose domination Turkey, a land of almost boundless resources and immense possibilities, was probably the poorest and most wretched in Europe. Realizing that in the vast plans for Industrial development capital in the first and the greatest essential, ths Young Turks appeal to the foreigner and arc, it appears, prepared to grant concessions that would, presumably, tustlfy the expenditure of money in the reforms they contemplate. Of these there are many, and the fact that they Include what even rural communities in America regard as necessaries to the proper enjoyment of life, shows the primitive condition In which Turkey even now is. It will scarcely be be

lieved that the beautiful city of Constantinople, the capital of the empire, and with a population of nearly 1,000.000 Inhabitants, has neither an electric light plant, an electric street car system nor a telephone exchange. In addition, its water works are wretched, as is also its ice plant, and it lacks very many things to bring It up to the standard of even a second-rate European or American city. Vast tracts of fertile lands in Turkey lands capable of producing two crops a year lie absolutely fallow, while, with modern methods of agriculture, the soil under cultivation could produce nearly double as much as it now does. But, aside from agriculture, tha country is rich In mineral wealth which needs but capital to be developed. This is especially true of Asia Minor, where few mines are being worked, owing to the difficulty of transportation and the impossibility In the past of getting favorable concessions from a hide-bound and non-progressive government Now, according to Mr. Brode, one American firm is petitioning the government for a concession to build nearly 1.500 miles of rai'way through the mineral districts of Asia Minor, connecting them with the Mediterranean sea. If the concession is granted, as it .is thought It will bs.

BOULEVARD There has been considerable talk recently regarding a park along the west bank of the river between Main street and Richmond avenue. Along this line it might be well to consider a boulevard to extend south along the river bank. Various cities over the country are spending large sums of money in extending and improving parkways and boulevards. Inasmuch as Richmond is one of the most beautiful cities In the middle west, It should keep up v.ith this onward march of progress. The following is an excerpt from the Washington Star: "Boulevard" is a word that is coming, perhaps has come, into popularity and wide use in the United States. Even where the word is not employed the idea is being developed. In a number of American cities, streets and ways to which the word boulevard might be attached are called speedWays, parkways and the like. It is one of the manifest symptoms of the desire of people dwelling in urban areas to improve their surroundingsone phase of the almost universal call for municipal beauty. Boulevard has come to mean a beautiful pleasure way in a city. Originally It meant the rampart of a fortress or a tower, then it came to mean a street or walk laid out on the site of such ramparts after their destruction and now according to a popular dictionary, it signifies "A broad city avenue, specially designed for pleasure, walking or driving, generally planted with trees, often in the center." The Municipal Journal and Engineer of recent issue notes a number of cities In the middle west which have made progress in "boulevarding" streets and in building roadways parking. Davenport, Iowa, has constructed a boulevard, one has been built con nectlng Mollne and Rock Island, and Dubuque is at work on a boulevard along the bluffs which parallel the Mississippi river. The width of this street is one hundred feet, divided into a fifteen-foot grasp plot in the center, a twenty-five-foot drive on either side, a seven-foot six-inch grass plot outside of that and then a tenfoot sidewalk. One of the big parkway projects is that at Philadelphia. The board of surveys of Philadelphia has approved the plan for a parkway from the city center at the city hall In Fairmount Park, a distance In excess of one mile. Roughly, 12,000,000 has been appropriated for condemnation of property during the first year, and the cost of the whole work In estimated at something like 115,000,000. This project, which now seems on the wav to consummation, has been under discussion since 1891, and has been kept before the public mainly through the efforts of the City Parks association, the various art societies and the newspapers of Philadelphia. News comes from Indianapolis that that city has nearly completed details which will give it one of the most beautiful boulevard and park systems of the world. Denver Is working to make itself handsome. The charter of that city created four park districts Highland, South Denver, Montclair and East Denver and directed each district to issue bonds for the purchase of property for its own park system. The first three districts have completed a vast work, and now the fourth district is debating a plan which calls for the creation of a civic center, an eighty-acre addition to City Park, six playgrounds, five small parks and six miles of boulevard necessary to connect the boulevards constructed by the other park districts.

CHEAPER THAN TELEGRAPH

RECEIVE MESSAGES BY MAIL, TAPE AND MESSENGER STATIONS ESTABLISHED OVER MIDDLE WEST.

Within one year Richmond will be

equipped with a telepost station, stated a well known capitalist yesterday. Officials of the company which is in

stalling the stations are expected here

In the next month or so, to look over the ground and chose a location. The company has just opened its Indianapolis station where the local man became Interested In the venture and af

terwards met the officials with the result that they promised to come to this city.' The telepost company has the latest wrinkle in telegraphing. One can send a message by telegram, teleletter, telepostcards, or by teletapes, and there is a slaughter of old established telegrapn rates. By this new service, the ordinary telegram costs 25 cents to any point, and instead of ten words, one may send twenty-five. One may send additional words at the rate of

5 cents for every ten words added. These messages are collected and delivered by the messenger. But if a person wants to send a "telepost" ho can send fifty words for 23 cents. Instead of the telegram being delivered by messenger it is put into an envelope, stamped and dropped into the central postoffice immediately and is delivered on the next mail delivery. The telecards are much the same. Instead of fifty words for 25 cents, one gets ten words for 10 cents, and this is written on a postcard and mailed for the next delivery. Telegrams by Tape. There is still another service telegrams by tape. These are for people having a great deal of telegraphing and who are warranted In employing a person who can read the Morse code of dots and dashes. By the new system, the telegrams are received on a tape in dots and dashes. Instead of transcribing this, the new company will deliver the original tape to the person or firm addressed. And for this service the rate Is only 25 cents for 100 words and 5 cents for each additional twenty words. In addition to these services, there are even lower rates for newspapers and other such big users of the telegraph. Line to be Pushed. The new company is just Opening its Kansas City-New York through trunk line and Richmond will be on it, it is said. The service is now installed In Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Aurora, Springfield, St Louis and Sedalia, Mo. The line will be pushed on rapidly into Kansas City and New York. The new company's rate is like the United States postal rate. It is 25 cents to Terre Haute, or 25 cents to the end of the line, be that Kansas City or New York. The effectiveness of the new service will, it is pointed out, be especially noticeable. A person in Richmond at noon will be able to put twenty-five words into New York or Chicago and get it into the afternoon delivery just the same as though he were in New York or Chicago and dropped his letter in the post office there at noon, it was stated. It Is pointed out that the new service will be especially a short cut for foreign mails.

CURE ACHIEVED BY CUTICURA REMEDIES

"It gives me great pleasure to express my deep gratitude in appreciation of

tne incalculable oenent that the Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent did my little boy. He had an awful rash all Over his body and the , doctor said it was eczema.

It was terrible and used to water awfully. Any place the' water went it

would form another sore and it would become crusted. A score or more

physicians failed utterly

and dismally in their 'efforts to remove the trouble. Then I was told to use the Cuticura Remedies. I eot a cake of

Cuticura Soap, a box of Cuticura Ointment and a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, and before we had used half the Resolvent I could see a change in him. In about two months he was entirely well. When people see him now they ask, 'What did you get to cure your baby?' and all we can say is. 'It Was the Cuticura Remedies.' So in us Cuticura will always hare firm and warm friends. George F.
