IT IS THE NEW EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION

ING COMPANY is ENTIRELY NEGRO.
Not one dollar of white capital will be at
Cepted in exchange for its securities.
There is not one dollar of Promotion Stock.
consequently there is no watered stock.
Every holder of stock from the President
down must pay at LEAST $1,000 per share for
every share of stock allotted to him.
This does not mean that the price of stock
will REMAIN at $1,000 per share. 1t is SIo.oq
NOW. It will advance in price far beyond
$1,000, just as railroad and public utility stock
goes to several times par. So will the Lincoln
Memorial Building Companys stock go to
several times its present value.
This means that a share of stock costing
$1,000 NOW will be worth $4,000 when stock
goes to four times par. Estimates show that
the Companys earnings will be 20 per cent, and
that is four times par, with every dollar in
vested in Real Estate. THE BEST in the city
of Washington, where values are as firmly fixed
as the Rock of Gibraltar.
This does not mean that the price of stock
will remain at $1,000 per share. 1t is $1,000
NOW. If the Company, as it is estimated,
pays 20 per cent, $1,000 shaCe of stock viii be
worth $4,000. If it pays 90 per cent single
share of $1,000 stock will be worth $1,000. Just
as railroads and public utility stocks increase
in value, so will the Lincoln Memorial Build
ing Company's stock increase in price.
The first allotment of stock at $1,000 share
is being rapidly subscribed, and the next aIiot-
ment will be SI2.5o per share to which point
1T will soon be advanced; therefore, you are
urged to avail yourself of the present oppor-
tunity to get in as completely on the ground
floor as any one of the Company's Directors
are.
The Companys Directors, by the way, are

you are possibly aware, or can easily ascertain
through any COMMERCIAL AGENCY

1t will also have theatre, which, if patron
lied at prices ranging from to so cents by
only per cent of the total colored population
of the city of Washington, will enable the Com
pany to pay IS per cent on its total capitaliza-

may be added the land value increase of 55s
per cent.
Now, all this is Conservatively Estimated.

1t is expected that Zeppelin ". will
be ready for use i'm May. This vessel
will have a gas capacity Of $4,000 cubic
meters. or 1000 more than its immedt-
ate predecessor. and it is expected to
carry twenty passengers, i'm addition
to it's crew and fuel, for cruise of
from ten to fifteen hours. For its con-
Struction it was at one time intended
to use a new alloy known as electro
metal. but ii is now stated that the eX-
periments with this material have not
fulfilled expectations and that alumni
mum will be used instead.
Negotiations are at present going on
between the Aerial Navigation cnmra
ny and various towns in Switzerland
with view to arranging destinations
for the excursions. The idea Cf making
regular trips round the Rigi seems to
have been dropped on account of the
danger of the sudden onslaughtS by
the Foehn winds.
In France schemes for passenger air
ship lines are the subject of negotia-
tions Two companies, the Compagnie
Internationale de Navigation Aerionne
and the Compagnie Tran saerienne,
have for their object the establishment
of airship lines between France and
England, and to that end are seeking
to lease ground in the neighborhood Of
Dover where they can build sheds and
landing stations. But while the Com
pagnie Transaerinne intends To con-
vey passengers from Paris tn London
passage across the English Channel,
the COmpagnie lnternationale intends
at the beginning To do nothing more
than convey passengers between Dover
and Calais.
NJ. Danville, the organizer and chief
director of the latter company, says
that his concern has a capital of $780,
900. The airshipS, which will be order
ed at the Astra works. have yet to be
built but NJ Danville hopes that he
will be able to announce the first cross
Channel trip before the end of the sum-
mer.
Meteorological observations show
that on an average of 80 days out of
the whole year it is quite possible to
cross the channel in an airShip. With
an average of fifteen passengers a trip,
it is proposed to make at least two
cross Channel services daily.
Tine airship design which NJ. Danville
proposes to adopt will be capable of
carrying fifteen passengers and crew
of three. The balloon car will be pro-
vided with protected cabins quite as
comfortable as those aboard the Chan
mel boats, and the maximum of safety
will be insured by the construction of
the envelope with gaslight compart-
ments.
The dirigible airship Vile de Pau
made it's first trip from Pau on Satur-
day, carrying fourteen people on board,
including NJ and Nine Bleriot. After
making a tour of the bay the dirigible
returned to its shed. The Astra COM
pany intends to start a service Of ae-
rial excursions shortly.
