Nearly $1,000 Subscribed.

The secretary reported that nearly 81 500
had been subscribed or promised for the
fund. The members of the committee
were of the opinion that in addition to
welcoming their majeSties in the manner
decided cn ii also would be desirable if
some useful work of permanent char
acter could be tnausurated to commem-
crate their ma eStieS' first official visit to
ireland. such as the provision Of an OPEN
Air space for a playground for children
IN a congested part of the district; the
erection OF a recreation hall for the
working classes, Or the creation of a
fund for the employment of an additional
jubilee nurse in the district.
At a meeting OF the Pembroke DubIin)
urban council a resolution was proposed
that in view Of the Forthcoming visit
steps should be taken to have a loyal
address prepared and in due course pre-
scented to his majesty on behalf of the
council The chairman proposed the fol-
lowing amendment: THAT We, the Penn
broke urban council unite with the Irish
nationalist party in hoping that the king
Will be received in generous and
hospitable manner on his coming visit
to Dublin, and. with the Irish party, we
believe that when the day comes that the
king will enter Dublin to reopen the an
cient parliament Of ireland his majesty
will obtain from the Irish people a TeCep-
ton as cordial ever welcomes a Brit
ish monarch in any part Of his domin-

EXPLAINS WORKING
Of THE GYR0-COMPASS
Demonstration Given at Meet

nomica| Society.
Snncial Cahlegram TO Tho Star.

Special tlbiegram 10 lhe sur.
LONDON, May cat a meeting Of
the Royal Astronomical Society +. w.
Dyson. the astronomer royal, in the chair.
Mr.. Eiphnstone Of the firm Of Elliott
Bros. gave a demonstration of the gyro
compass, illustrated by a working model
of the apparatus. which appeared to do all
that was required of it. Mr.. Elphinstone
explained that no originality was claimed
by the inventors for the theory of the
working of the instrument, but they had
contrived to surmount certain difficulties
which had been met with in previous at
tempts to make an instrument OF this
type and so far with success except for
some small disturbances which might dis
appear in the course of the trials and eX-
periments now going on.
In the course of remarks following the
main discourse ii transpired that, theo-
reticaly, 1t is possible to construct a
evrostat which would indicate the lati-
tnde of the place a. well as the direction
of the north and south line, but this is
ONLY true in theory, for no one has yet
been able to make an instrument or de-
wise a mode Of suspension SO that the
three axes Of rotation should meet In a
true. point that point being the center of
gravity of the instrument from which il
must be hung. and in the present scheme
the third degree of freedom, or the ca
parttv for the axle of the gyro-WheeI TO
rest inclined to the horizon at the neceS-
sary angle. has had to be abandoned.
1t is curious that the original object Of
the inventors should have been to make
an instrument which would sho" the way
to the north pole in the submarine, for.
with not unusual irony, the poles of the
north are the only places where the the
Orv fails, and. indeed there are practical
difficulties which make the compass un-
work BILE north of latitude 20 degrees.

are being taken toward the formation of
a citizens committee for the reception of

Meath. the lieutenant OF the city, has

COMMITTEES has become necessary in view

1t was reported at I, meeting of the
Blackrock reception and decoration COM
mittee that an Interview had been held
with the lord lieutenant as to tn. ac-
ceptance OF an address from the RESI-
dents of Blackrock to the king during his
coming visit to Dublin. A letter which
was read stated that the lord lieutenant
in transmitting the request of the com
mittee. had offered a strong Recommended
ton thereon, and that lie had received a
communication from Buckingham Palace
to the effect that the king would be era
ciously pleased to arrange for halt to
be made In the progress from kingStOWn

able IN address of welcome to he pre-

spending the money, it is probable very

present time in the outlying sections of

the ground TO uniform level so that

where extensive operations of this Char

of man ara accomplishing what seems 10
he the impossible. IT does not sound IN
reasonable when the statement is made
that in the case OF one subdivision alone
that OF Massachusetts Avenue HeightS-
the large sum of about three-duarters OF
a million OF dollars IS being expended In
developing that property.
The cost of what is being done IN the
other localities named can only be eX-
pressed in sums OF six figures. But the
vastness Of the work, we'll as that Of
the funds that are being spent, Is only
another way of illustrating the growth Of
the city. There can be no doubt Of the
genlineness OF the market for homes in
view OF what IS being done to provide
them. All tho effort is not being made
and all the money IS not being spent
merely because OF some sentimental no.

Good Demand for Homes.

There are substantial reasons for what
is going on in providing additional build
ing sites for the city's population. 1t is
easily recognized that all this would not
happen unless a demand existed for
homes. Speculation IN real estate Is only
sufficient 10 account for certain per-
centage OF the activity. There is no spec
uIatiVe movement unless there IS some
Se!nblanCe of "a genuin" demand. 1t is
undoubtedly true that some proportion of
the buying now going on in these newer
additions to the city is BY people who
hope to sell after a While AZ IL profit. It
i also a phase Of the current market
demand shat the buying Is not confined to
residents OF the city, but to an inCTeas-
ing extent it may be said that the WASH
inSton realty market Is country wide.
The promoters of subdivision develop
nent III many instances find customers in
those living in various portions OF the
country, who believe in the future OF the
Capital city and want TO share in the
profits that accompany the growth in
population and the material expansion
that are now going on.

Slightly Affected by Changes.

It is thought the block has been but
slightly affected by the recent changes
which have taken place In the business
sections of the city. as there are but few
modern buildings there. On this &C
count more than usual attention was
drawn to the two transactions, which
were in reality one, both pieces having
been owned by the Cruit heirs and We're
purchased by one man. The plans of
the new owner, @. q. Staples, as TO the
use to be made of the properties have not
been disclosed, but 1t is supposed the
buildings will be modernized so as to
adapt them TO current needs. They may
be removed entirely.
No announcement has been made as to
the price paid which is always u matter
OF interest in the case of realty trans
actions of this character, but ii is said
the price asked for the properties wa
$4,000. The dimensions Of the ground
are 54S7 feet on + street. one-half OF
which has q depth OF - feet and the
balance 113 feet, the latter extending to

RECENT REALTY SALES

Price Paid and Location of
Property Arouse Interest.
Among Dealers.

The announcement OF the sale made
during the week, of the two pieces of
property at 1907 and 100 + street north
west aroused good deal OF interest in
real estate circles. This was due to two
causes, the first being the price reported
to have been paid. and the second the
location Of the property As to the lat
ter proposition, the property Is in one Of
the busiest business sections in the city.
and yet one which has come to be looked
upon in the past year or so as showing
tendency to be getting just off of the
main course of the tide of life that flows
through that portion of the city.
