DEVEL IN PROGRESS IN
THREE NORTHWEST SUBURBS
Many Investors Seek Property IN Richmond
Park, Connecticut Avenue High
lands and Cathedral Highlands.

known as Connecticut Avenue Highlands
and on the western side it is named
Richmond Park. A little farther to the
south and lying west of Wisconsin ave-
nue. the same firm has charge Of the
subdivision known as Cathedral High
lands. All three of these subdivisions
have been divided into lots; streets have
been extended through them, and hun
dreds of investors, confident Of the con-
tinuatfon of the northwestward growth
Of the capital, have purchased property
through the Matteson Offices. Still other
hundreds have chosen the sites for their
future homes, and even now are awaiting
the completion of the new streets and
the installation of sewers, water and gas
mains and other civic Improvements be-
fore actually beginning construction work
on their houses
Strenuous grading work was necessary
to prepare Connecticut Avenue High
lands for the market, because two high
hills of almost solid granite. with a ravine
between, formerly marked the eastern
boundary on Connecticut avenue. Now
these hills have been blasted away. and
the ground and rocks from the tops of
the hills suff1ced to fill the ravine to the

Location and Elevation.

This choice new northwest residen-
tial subdivision is located directly on
the Georgetown and Rockville Turn
pike. and the Washington Rockville
Electric Railway, just beyond the Dis
trict Line, and only about nine blocks
distant northwest of Chevy Chase. Md.
1t lies between the Washington
Rockville and the Chevy Chase electric
lines. and is only about four blocks
distance north OF. the Chevy Chase
Club golf grounds. and about the same
distance west Of the new golf grounds

With development progressing steadily
from the city outward. and also from the
outer boundaries Of the city toward the
more thickly populated centers, the time
is fast approaching when Washington
will actually overlap the boundaries Of
the District Of Columbia and when a very
considerable part of it's citizens will have
their homes in the contiguous country in
Maryland. The upbuilding of outlying
suburbs has been going on rapidly of re-
cent years. and the rapidity with which
new houses are sold and rented-many of
them before the construction work has
been fully completed-has served to give
an even more eloquent showing than is
possible by a mere quotation of the CEN
sus reports of the increasing popularity
of the National Capital. Scores of COM
paratively new subdivisions, which only
few months ago were regarded as sub
urbs, are now practically integral parts of
the city proper-and the so-called city
boundary has lost it's identity SO COM
pletely that the District of Columbia and
the city Of Washington are co-extensive
in more than mere words.

fertile fields of a farm. the thorough
fares have been graded in winding curves
around hills and through ravines, so that
whole groves of trees have been left
standing, and many beautiful villa sites
have been made on the tops of rounded
knobs. The line of the winding Reno
road passes through the property. and
the workmen also have finished grading

solidly built from boundary to boundary.
But the building activities outward from

OF Cleveland Park and leaped beyond it.

Vanished Mountains.

It has been observed that In the
neighborhood of great ranges of noun
tains the force Of gravity is slighter
than elsewhere, and the explanation Is
that the earth's crust is less dense be-
meath the places where It has been
heaved up. Assuming this to be a
general law. one authority points out
that It Is possible to discover where
ancient mountains now worn away
.and leveled by the action OF the ele-
ments once existed, because the dem
sity of the underlying rocks has not
changed. France, 1t Is thought, pos
sessed one of these vanished ranges,
running along the parallel of Bor-
deaux, for on that line there is less
ening of the force of gravity. A SINH
lar phenomenon occurs on the plains
of southern Russia -Harper's Weekly.

PALESTINE FIRE
CLAIMED A LIFE
Citizen Of Troupe Perished in Flames
And Others Had Narrow Escape.

Palestine, Texas, March 25.--As a
result of fire which broke out about
o'clock yesterday morning in the
Dublin restaurant, on Main street, one
old man named Mitchell lost his life
and property was damaged to the ex-
tent of several thousand dollars. The
fire started in the kitchen of the res
taurant and completely quilted the
whole building.
The saloon of W. e. Hall was also
badly damaged. Mitchell lived at
Troupe and was s'eeping in room
over the restaurant at the time.
Several other roomers narrowly es
capped in their night clothes. Mitch
ell was about 40 years OF age. He was
awakened in time to get out, but it is
thought that he became confused and
was overcome with the smoke. The
fire was in the heart of the city and
for time 1t looked as if much more
damage would be the result.

Hll.O, Aug. 29.-The election OF
delegates to both the Republican Ter

from the Hilo town precinct should
be a very interesting event, for in
both cases have more candidates

their states. .'r n.s

Chas. II. auckland. Carl S. Smith.

In the Waiakea precinct there
will be no excitement In the elcc-
