LINCOLN STATUE
IS PRESENTED
RUSSIA Senate
SENATOR K0NI, PROMINENT STAY
POLITICIAN, is DONOR OF STA.
TUE OF AMERICAS WAR PRES
IDENT,

PETROGRAD, Nov. ia full
length statue of Lincoln, with an in
teresting history, has been presented
TO the Rev. Franklin Gaylord, head of
the Russian Young Mems Christian
Associations work.
The story of the statue is this.
Among Mr.. Gaylords callers the other
day was Senator Anatole Feodorovitch
Koni, member of the Imperial Coun-
Gil, as we'll as the Senate, who is just
ly celebrating the 50th anniversary
OF his public service He is a staunch
friend of the Y. NJ. c. A, and Mr.. Gay
lord was one of those asked to speak
at the celebration of his anniversary.
1t seems that the conversation between
the two men turned on Lincoln, and
the next day, to his surprise, Mr.. Gay
lord received the Lincoln figure from
Senator Koni with polite note re-
questing it's acceptance as token OF
friendship. AS a student in 1865, Sen
ator Koni bought the statute and had
given it a place of honor in his home
for so years. During the Senator's
student days Lincoln was immensely
popular with the progressive youth of
Russia, because Lincoln had followed
the Emperor Alexander II. as an eman-
cipator. Many of these statutes, which
were we'll executed in hard, polished
plaster ,three-quarter size, were sold
among Russian students, and doubtless
here and there in the homes of some of
the old families in Russia, similar ev-
idence of tribute to Lincoln may be
found.

over the northern coast some OF the
finest Turkish tobacco is raised, which
in all likelihood is now a rare luxury
among German smokers. A sort of to-
bacco is grown in Germany, pale, in
sipid, unfragrant leaf, which bears liz
tie resemblance to the rich tobacco Of
America, Turkey and the East Indies.
Great quantities of hazel nuts are
among the exports of this area, and
cotton, another staple which the Ger

WASHINGTON, d. c., NOV. 19.-With
the conquest and opening-up of the
connecting link in the Orient Railway
between Belgrade and Sofia by the
Teutonic and Bulgarian allies, a vast
storehouse rich in much-needed raw
materials has been made accessible for
tie supply of the hard-pressed Central
Powers. Probably, the most important
features of this accomplishment is the
bringing of the Austro-H Hun garian and
German nations into communication
with lands where are found minerals
and products of agriculture in abund-
ance; though the control of the Orient
Railway, also, enables the remunerat-
ioning of Turkey and the transporta-
tion of German troops to territories
threateningly near the Suez Canal. A
sketch of the stores of Asia Minor, or
Anatolia, upon which the Germans will
now be able to draw, is contained in a
bulletin just issued by the National
Geographic society. The bulletin
reads:
THE mineral and agricultural
wealth of Turkey-in-A is very great.
This wealth, however, is largely of the
potential kind, for, except in limited
areas, agriculture is carried on accord
ing to primitive methods, while, for
the most part, the mineral stores have
been left untouched. Among the min
erals known to exist in considerable
quantities are iron copper, nickel, lead
Manganese, silver, sulphur, coal anti
mony, arsenic, emery, fuller's earth,
gold, kaolin, zinc, alum, asbestos, rock
salt, boracide, chrome and mercury. Of
these resources, the copper stores will,
likely, be the most priced by the Ger
mans, though little has been done I'M
der Turkish administration toward
exploiting the copper. The resources
OF Anatolian copper are said to be
large.
Wheat, corn and barley are grown
in large quantities in Asia Minor, and,
in normal times much of the surplus
barley has been exported to Great
Britain, where it has been used for
brewing. There is considerable sur
plus of wheat, which should relieve the
reported meal scarcity in the mills of
the Central Powers. The west coast
Of Asia Minor is noted for the fruits

are raisins tobacco, figs, barley, lqu-
orice, wool, hides, cotton and SKINS
Owing to the backward organization OF
the country it is difficult to assign any
values to the annual exports OF these
articles, which would be worth consid-
ering. The leading exports OF syria
include lemons. oranges, sesame, soap,
silk, barley, and liquerice while Mes
opotamia exports large shipments CT
dates, wool. barley, wheat and opium.
Yemen, in Arabia, the land which is
mostly a desert, exports the famed
Mokha coffee. Coffee is said to be very
scarce in Germany now. Dates are
about the only other export from Ara

WANTED-A NAME.
Appropriate Designation Needed for
New Type of Building.

From building Management.
There is a type OF building which has
developed within the last few years
which needs a name. For the lack of a
better one. it is being called loft
building. but this is by 10 means it's
proper title We refer to u type of
ing and proper loft building.
The average conception OF lott
building is one in which the space is
leased for light manufacturing. Often
power is used by the tenants for their
work. The construction is often cheap,
and little effort is made to furnish
service, as tenants usually care Tor
their own premises.
The new type to which we refer IS a
much higher grade. but is not exactiy
in an office building class. While the
building is of cheaper construction
than an office building, has Il sprinkler
system, and makes no pretenSe as 10
beauty of appearance either externally
or internally, yet it successfully COM
petes with the best buildings for large
tenants Whole floors are usually rent
ed to one tenant, and the advantages
of this are apparent.
The buildings are fairly we'll located,
allow no manufacturing. furnish JAM
tor service and adequate elevator SefV-
ice which is of slower speed than tle
so-called distinctly office building Inc
price of space is the inducement which
seems to attract tenants Comparisons
show that rents are much lower, Whlch
is possible because of cheaper con-
structiou and lower ground values. Ac-
curately speaking, this is not lott
building; it is not exactly what one
considers an Office building; what shall
we call it"

EDUCATION Of Tenant
IMPORTANT PROBLEM
Complaint Box Suggested as a
Means of Better Under
standing.
From :Ae Pittsburgh Dispatch

From :.,e Pittsburgh Dispatch.
Speaking of owners and occupants of
rented properties q we'll known renting
agent said a few days ago: ''One of the
most difficult and serious problems
which the landlord has to solve is the
education of the tenant. Imbued with
the idea that they cannot have any
thing in common, and that their SYM
pathies must always be adverse and
antagonistic, the tenant is constantly
making the load of the landlord more
and more burdensome. The feeling har-
bored by the average tenant toward
the landlord is such that if it were
within his power he would annihilate
all landlords. Yet the fact is that the
interests of the landlord and the ten
ant are not at variance. They are
Identical, rather.
ANY movement that affects the land
lord must of necessity affect the ten
ant. The landlord is really only the
niddleman between the tenant and the
taxing power. He is so because OF his
having invested his money iii what he
considered a safe proposition. The re
lations between the landlord and the
tenant should be cordial The landlord
and understand his tenants, and should
give them an opportunity to know and
understand him. Every complaint
should reach the landlord or his agent
personally, and he should employ the
most competent assistants-those who
will reflect his own attitude. A box
should be placed in every building in
which the tenants may file their COM
plants in writing. the box to be
opened by the landlord or his agent.
Every such complaint should be in
vestigated personally
No misunderstanding should be per-
n1itted to continue The tenant should
know and be made to understand that
the owner has his obligations to meet.
and that 1t is not because of his own
desire entirely. but because of the high
tax rates that he is compelled to MAIN
tain a rental sufficient to prevent him
from getting less than reasonable
return on his investment, or to pre-
vent him from losing the money in
vested They must learn to respect his
interests the same as they do their
own, and the more they assist him in
safeguarding his property, and in
watching the expenditures of city,
county and state. and in REFRESHING OBJ
noxious legislation, the better 1t is for
the landlord and themselves.
The relationship between landlord
and tenant should be the same as be-
tween the merchant and his customer,
and just as the tradesman seeks to
please his customer, and makes 1t his
