These advantages are emphasized by
the further considerations that branch
line of the Southern Railway system
also runs through this very territory
and crosses the Seaboard tracks near
the James River, and that If this branch
track were put upon an elevation with
the level at this paint of crossing, on an
embankment built for its erection, which
would cost very little to build it, the
water of the James River would even
when 1t reaches It's highest rise) be
exluded- from this magnificent manufac-
turing territory. In addition to the splen-

scented. 1t should be borne in mind that
these sites, these basins. the wharves

Vast Water Power.

III tnlS Gay OF the marvellous employ
ment OF electricity, 1t is difficult to even
conjecture the mighty power that could
be generated, for all commercial and
manufacturing uses and energies, by the
practical utilization OF Nhis almost in
exhaustible water power from "Boshers
DAM" about eight miles above Marches
ter. to the basin that Is contemplated
in the vision of Mr.. Burgwyn, which we
believe Is prophecy that will be full
filled in few years. The water could
be used over and over in the course of
it's flow for eight miles, and still fill this
basin, and thus many times promote the
welfare and wealth of the men with
sufficient enterprise and business sagacity
to accomplish this magnificent work. No
more inviting field is open to the ex-
ploitation and manufacturing development
.of energetic and courageous business men
and manufacturers. To see is to be
convinced.
Low Rate of Taxation.
The rate of taxes in this city is q.
graduated one, and is based upon the
business done and not the specific capt.
tai invested. Many merchants and manu-
facturers have located here. We In
stance few of them: Donnan Hard
ware Company. Stephen Putney Shoe
Company, Virginia Carolina Chemical
Works. the Richmond Electric Company,
liz 1NiCllHiouu WOOu' WOIklIS company,
the johnson Axle Factory. the Wingo.
Elicit s. Crump Shoe Company. the Blair
Rouehl Glass Works. the James
River Mattress Company. and many 9TH
ers on account of our most favorable
tax rate and admirable sites.
A Good Place to Live.
The health of the city is most excellent,
and has been for some years. During the
year just ended, by strict and careful ar
tention, few things, which initiated
against perfect health have been re-
moved, until the rate of mortality, always
low, has been still more decreased. The
Health Department is alive, active and
progressive. and resolute in effecting
beneficial results.
The city has a fine and adequate sewer-
age system. which is gradually being put
into full operation. and which Is soon to
become source OF considerable income
to the city, and which will enable the
city. In connection with the income from
the water works. owned and operated by
the city, to again lower the tax-rate.
These water works are In most excel
lent condition. and are year by year
becoming more useful and profitable.
They are well managed, and when q
proper system of classification Of the
water is installed. which will be urged
in the near future, will become one Of
the most potent factors in Mnnchester's
municipal growth and prosperous IRE

Outlook Most Encouraging.

I . -
The people have generally found EN-.
ployment and work. But few idle men
are seen on the streets. The demand for
hands has been great in Richmond and
this city. a great many people have
come to this place to reside. Hundreds
have been compelled to seek homes in
Richmond and the surrounding country
because the houses In Manchester are
all occupied. It is conserpatively estl-s
mated that at least 400 new homes could
be rented here in the next few months,
If built to meet the demand. which Is for
houses with modern conveniences and inl-
provements at reasonably profitable ren-s
tails. The outlook for real estate as in-
qufries indicate, show renewed interest
and is most encouraging. ssss
At no time in the history OF this city
have her prospects been brighter and
more flattering. May they brighten more
and more unto the perfect day. when
her real advantages and situation, and
her fine sites and transportation facilities
shall make her one Of the greatest manu-s
featuring and commercial centers Of the
South, 800

ON THE ST. REGIS LAKES.

Upper ST. Regis N. Y, July Z (Special).-The
usual rush TO the Adirondacks after the Fourth
has brought many to the camps on the st. Regis
lakes, and the season is well advanced. Many Of
those already here are entertaining friends and
others are preparing for their reception this
week. At many of the camps improvements be-
gun early in the season are now nearing COM
pletion. Damage done to the shore fronts OF
many of the camps by the ice in the winter has
called for the immediate attention Of many re-
turning owners and as a consequence the shore
lines all three lakes of the st. Regis chain
have been greatly improved and beautifled. At
the Twin Pines camp of Simeon J. Drake. on
Spitflre Lake, the owner has erected on the
shore an overhanging rustic house, jutting out
over the water and commanding fine view up
and down the lake, affording a most delightful
resting place a hot day.
Mr.. Drake has his guests at present his
son-in-law and daughter, Mr.. and Mrs o. Harry
Gruner OF New York. Mr.. Gruner Is a men,
ber of the New York Stock Exchange Mr.. and
Mrs Clifford Drake, who are now abroad, are
expected at their fathers camp later in the

improvements are being made at the camp
Of DR.. T. r. French, on Spitfre Lake, and he is
expected up soon. At the camp Of George H.
Earle, just beyond, a fine new stone boathouse
is being erected. after the fashion of the
built last season by Mr.. Earle at his Camp
Katia. the Upper Lake. This boathouse,
