OUR BIG .B4TTLESHTPS.

The best Is none too good for the
United States, so. Secretary Bonaparte
will ask congress to change the law en-
acted at the last session providing for
two battleships so as to enable the de-
signers of these ships, who are now at
work on the preliminary plans, to in
crease the displacement from $4,000 tons
to $4,000 tons. 1t is found that it will
be impossible to take care of a main
battery of ten-inch or twelve-inch guns,
as is proposed for the new battleships,
on a displacement Of only 10000 tons.
The additional 1000 tens of displace-
ment would enable the designers to pro-
vide an armament which would make
the ships equal or superior to any now
being built abroad, 1t is not considered
advisable to have elsven-inch guns in
place of twelve-inch guns, for, while
there would be a saving in weight, the
substitution would require an entirely
new type of naval ordnance, and this
is SONS thing which means delay beyond
the time when it is desirable to have
the ships ready for service.
Several propositions are pending be-
fore the experts of the Navy depart
ment contemplating various arrange
ments of tr&rets which will provide as

+ Al recent archaeological exhibition in
IAyIesbury, Bucks, England, was open
led by Lord Rosebery. Among the ex-
hibits were memeritos Of Charles II.
and Oliver Cromwell, among the eccle-
siastical possessions, a unique altar
cloth, being none other than a purple
cloth cloak that once belonged to
Charles IL. The story goes that the
king went to visit his old tutor, who
had been given the living of Hedgerley,
Bucks. On being shown the church he
ct once noticed that the altar had no
cloth, whereupon he threw his own
cloak over it and there it served for
many a year. The clothes that Crom-

The Swiss dislike the automobilist
more than do any other European peo-
pie Laws restricting the motorist in
The Alpine communities are severe, and
are more usually enforced than in this
Seountry, for instance. He really has to
slow down in the villages, and he is
forbidden to travel on the high passes
except in the tow of a horse. Even
these restrictions, however, do not sat-
fsfy the democratic sentiments of the
Helvetians. A contributor in the Ber-
ner Bund writes of the motorist as 1.-THE
anarchist Of the traffic question:" and
pf his car as '''the bomb which the par
Eenu hurls into the midst of the de-
Eenceless masses" He proposes, there
fore, the formation of an anti-motor
league, of which the principal demand
shall be that, pending the ripening Of
opinion for the entire suppression of
motorists, the roads shall at least be
forbidden to them on Sundays and pub
liz holidays.

RICH HARVEST
ALL The SAME

1t is generally believed that the merger
OF the great coal and iron corporations of
the Birmingham district has been de-
ferred rather than abandoned and that
the plan will be consummated later in
the spring or the summer. Be that as it
many Birmingham reaped a rich harvest
of advertising while the recent deal
for the merger was progressing. This
advertising did not cost the city a penny
and was most convincing.
In the first place. the fact that the
flnanciers and bankers of New York were
Interested In the matter. demonstrated to
the country that the claims of Birming-
ham rested upon a solid business foun-
dation. The assertion that iron could be
produced cheaper here than anywhere
else in the world was backed up by data
which conservative men could not refuse
to accept, and the statements as to the
success of the manufacture of basic OPEN
hearth steel in this district were as we'll
sustained. These figures were published
under striking headlines In the press
throughout the county and the attention
of the whole nation was turned this
way.
In a word, the marvellous growth of
Birmingham, its future greatness, the
lnexhaustible supply of coal and iron
which surround it, its other many nat
ural advantages and the opportunities
ufacturing, real estate and otherwise,
were impressed as they have never been
impressed before. This publicity If paid
for at space rates, would have cost Bir-
mingham at least half million dollars.
The effects of 1t are already apparent.
Inquiries are being received from every
section of the country. demonstrating

rers, professional men. mechanics-all

volume for years.
Truly, never was the future of Bir-
mingham brighter than 1t is today, and,
truer still, it presents today more op-
portunities for investment with the prom

IT IS SIGNIFICANT.

One feature Of the real estate mar
ket Is the increasing receipt of in
quiries from abroad as to residence prop
erty for investment. Prospective inves-
tors are apparently strongly impressed
with the idea that Birmingham will soon
have a large access of population in con-
sequence of the attention which the city
is attracting. The deduction is logical,
and residence property in this city, es-
pecially where the street and other i'm
provements have been made. is undoubt-
eddy an excellent form of investment.
This class of property will appreciate
steadily, and should commend itself to
those who are looking for safety with
sure returns.
