vERA6UA'S TROUBLES,
His Fortune Lost by Speculation.
Propositions TO Start Subscrip-
tion List For Him.

A Chicago despatch says that the financial
crisis through which the Duke OF VeragIa is
now passing seems 70 have been caused In
great measure by speculation in Paris.
Just before his departure from Chicago
he ralled upon T. W. Palmer pres. Of the ma
tional commission, and told him he had been
spe'ulating with the ma or portion OF his for
tune i'll Paris. and had just been informed by
rablegram that he had lost every dollar.
Things did not become critical until he
reached New York. There he received word
that his beautiful home had been seized by
his creditors and that his bull farm near Tole-
do had been tied up by tn" law.
Loss followed loss in quick sutcession and
when the duke sailed for America his $780,
600 had been reduced to Si500O
II has been decided that not only will the
U. 3. be asked to assist the duke, but that
all other American republics and the West
Indian Islands will be appealed to for as
sistance. When a large sum has been
raised 1t will be invested in tirSt-class Amer
lean securities, the income Of which will be
given to Don Cristoval Colon, the son, and
Dona Maria del Pillar, the daughter, Of the
Duke Of Veragua. That is as far as the
scheme has progressed. Ii has not yet been
decided in what manner the subscription
will be pushed.

"How high will central real estate
in our large cities ultimately go?' asks
the Atlanta Constitution. Take New
YORK, for instance. The site of st.
Luke's Hospital, on Fifta avenue, re-
GENTLY sold for 81, 400, 900, which is
$4,000 for every front foot of each OF
its four sides. Forty years ago this
property sold for $50, 900. Comment
ing on this precious dirt, the Pittsburg
Chronicle says that some real estate IN
Pittsburg doubles in value every seven
wears. Here in Atlanta we have real
estate that has jumped to forty times
what it sold for fourteen years ago
Property commanding such prices is
central or advantageously located. But
it is easy to raise the value OF any city
real estate by improving 1t. In pulld-
:ino the latest fashion and the tastes
of customers and tenants should be
studied. Owners of old-fashioned and
announcement houses will find that 1t
pavs to remodel them and give them a
few decorative hourishes. Most OF our
growing cities are undergoing the pro-
cess of rebuilding, and architectural
attractiyeness is studied. With due
attention to these hints, there Is no
telling how high improved real estate
will go in Atlanta and other cities,
R.pid transit to the suburbs will not
hurt central property in hourishins
cities. In point of fact it will make
santral locations more valuable.

Blue and Gray. at seems only yester-
day that the fires were lighted for the
first time in the pioneer furnaces of
Birmingham and Bessemer, Alabama /;
it seems only yesterday that it became
uoised about that these young cities
were destined to rival Pittsburgh and
Allegheny in the extent OF their pro.
duction of iron and steel, in at least
certain forms. The smile Of incredu.
lity which this declaration caused, has
