GROWTH OF TIE CLTN.

A ride or drive in the suburbs is all
that is needed to demonstrate the rapid
expansion of the city in the last five
years, and the very considerable extern
sions of railway track in Salisbury,
Pleasant and June streets are sufficient
to indicate the direction of the drift
of population in search of new homes
Speculation inevitably plays an impor-
tant part in the opening Of new land
and its justification is commonly to be
found in the success of the enterprise
1t is too early yet to say that none of
the recent expansion is mere imitation,
an overlooking of the market with
homestead sites, but most of it seems
a healthy and legitimate growth.
The quality of houses erected is a
determining factor in computing the
time required for the development of
real estate. Cheap houses may be
built rapidly and low rents will bring
tenants in abundance. In these new
districts, however special endeavor has
been made to create attractive neigh
bcrhoods, both by a judicious laying
out of streets and by setting reasonable
limits for the lowest cost of the build
ings to be erected. 1t is needless to
enumerate. all the estates that have
lately been opened, but the territory
bounded by Salisbury Boynton and
Highland streets, the old Mortified
property, the tract lying between Park
avenue, Highland and Pleasant streets,
the Salisbury land between the avenue
and Salisbury street, and the old Whit
man place on the northerly side of the
latter street, afford some of the most
conspicuous examples of local progress
in home-making. All the residences
are comfortable. not a few luxurious,
and the promptness with which the
people have awaited themselves of the
opportunities for better homes, is one of
the most convincing demonstrations of
the growth of the city in population
and material prosperity. The new land
in the vicinity OF the Highland Military
soademy offered peculiar advantages
for the picturesque arrangement of
streets, and it is gratifying to observe
that here, at least, is something to re-
lieve the monotony of rectangular city
blocks.
Of course real estate owners COM
plain, as usual, of vacant tenements,
but that is a chronic trouble. A we'll
known investor said not long ago, that
a hundred thousand people might move
into Boston and find houses enough
ready-made to accommodate all. Per-
sobg who go house-hunting in Worces-
ter, however, do not find an embar-
raising assortment of desirable resi-
dences from which tc choose, and the
prevailing conditions seem TO point to
a general rise in the standard of living.
AS regards population, the increase of
house building makes quite credible
the semi-official estimate of $4,000 for
the census of 1900.

Even granting the truth of the most
discouraging reports concerning the
wheat crop in this country, it appears
that there will be no abundant harvest
in Europe to offset it, and consequently
a lively demand for American wheat
may be expected abroad. The British
estimate for the world shows a short
age Of 100000 900 bushels as compared
with last years crop. This is a de-
crease of nearly per cent, but other
estimates rise as high as u. Drought
and insects have severely damaged the
Russian crop. Germany has suffered
from cool, cloudy weather and lack of
sunshine, Roumania promises scarcely
more than half the usual crop, while
Austria is barely up to the average.
France has the best outlook of all Eu-
ropean nations, but with this exception
the prospects for large crops, the other
side of the water, are far from bright,
and American farmers are likely to get
high prices for their products.

Gresham's law isn't included in the
Confucian system, and yet it is play
ing a prominent part in the economy OF
the celestial kingdom, through the ra-
pid appreciation of copper. The bulk
of the money circulation over there is
copper, which the government makes le-
gal tender and for which fixed exchange
value in silver is named So long as
the copper was overvalued in COMPARE
son with silver, the red metal drove
out the more expensive money and be-
came the chief coinage of the realm
Everybody knows how copper stocks
have gone kiting during the past six
months, and how the price of the me-
tai has risen. In China copper was
soon worth more as bullion than the
amount of silver for which it was Ie-
gally eXchangeable. The thrifty ORR
entails could be trusted to discover this
fact, and to see more profit in melting
their coins into bars and selling them
at the market rates in Hong Kong, than
in using them as money. The Chinese
have been doing this very thing, and of
course the money circulation is disap-
pearing. 1t is the old lesson of silver
and gold over again, but anybody who
would have predicted such a demonstra-
ton in copper five years ago would have
been ridicued
