The Comints- stoners had im like manner ally secured without expense valuable rights of way for the extension of North Capitol street and of Rhode Island avenue. He thought that good government and good sense required the Cominisstoners to do these things while they could be done without in- volving expense. ‘A GENERAL PLAN. ‘The Commissioners, he said, would soon have ready to send to the Senate in response to a reso- Intion adopted at the last session a map of the | District, suggesting the lines on which the streets j aud avenues should be extended, together with approximate estimates of the cost of such exten | sions. The value of the land to be taker would, of course, depend upon the juriesof condemnation, but ih most cases, the colonel thought, as in the ease of Massachusetts avenue, juries would con- sider that the benefltsto be derived by property owners would offset the damages. When this a Was prepared, the colonel said, he hoped jongress would direct that the Commissioners | should approve no subdivision of land in the sub- ‘urbs unless made to conform to this general plan. The Commissioners could refuse butlding permits for buildings that would obstruct any of the pro- ‘street extensions, and in other ways keep the ifnes open, so that, as from time to time, it De- came feasible to extend the streets and avenues, it could be done without any great expenditure in the way of damages to property.

A THREATENED FAMINE IN THIS CITY AND WHAT A ‘The scarcity of coal which 1s now being felt in Chicago, Brooklyn and other points throughout the country, has been experienced to some extent also tn this city, and a prominent coal dealer told @ Stax reporter this morning that two or three weeks ago he began to fear that there would be a goal famine here. “The dimiculty seems to be,” he sald, ‘that the means of transportation are not sufllelent for the cousumption. It 18a scarcity of cars, not the searcity of coal, that 1s the troubl ‘We have promises now that there will be cars su ficient to Ml our orders, and that, together nh the inilder weather, will avert the "danger arising from an insuMctent supply.

With the government offices and the pubile school bniktings the provision tor storage. room isso meager thats comparatively, smoll amount can be kept or hand and so the contractors are obliged to store the coal. It 1s the same case With private honses, and it isa very common experience with people who use thirty or forty fons during the season to order their coal a ton or two ata time. Some of them have an idea that. 1t 4s more economical, and that. when the coal is ob- tained in small quantities, the servants use less. Since the first of January the price of coal has Deen advanced fifty cents on a ton, but this 1s not as great an advance as the wholesale dealers have made on their prices to us. They advanced sevent} cents on the ton, In spite of thls increase coal 15 selling at lessrates In this etty than tn Baltimore, Philadelphia and other places. I saw in THe Stax ‘Thursday evening that they were asking $8 per ton in Brookiyn, “We are promised more ¢ars now, as I have sald, and in that event there will be nd Searelty of coal experienced here.” ‘The dealer added that it was difficult to deter- mine whether the lack of cars for transportation Plrposes Was intentional on the part of tue rafl- companies or hot.

Absolutely pure. MY OLDEST CHILD, ‘Now six years of age, when an infantsix months old, was attacked with a virulent, malignant skin disease. All ordinary remedies failing, we called our family physician, who attempted to cure it; but it spread with ‘almogt incredible rapidity, until the lower portion of the little fellow’s person, from the middle of his back down to his knees, was one solid rash, ugly, painful, Dlotched and malicious. We badno rest at night, no Peace by day. The physician did not know then, and does not know now, what it was, Finally, we were ad- vised to try Curicuna Remepres. Without the know- ledge of our physician, I procured s box of CcTicuna and.acake of Curicuna Soar. The effect WAS SIMPLY MARVELOUS, Using the two together, first washing him thoroughly with Currcuna Soar, then annointing him with Curr- cura. From the first application a change for the bet- ter appeared. The doctor said we had no further need of him, and ceased his visita. In three or four weeks a complete cure was wrought, leaving the little fellow’ Personas white and healthy as though he had never been attacked. In my opinion, your valnable remedies saved his life, and to-day he is a strong, healthy child, perfectly well, no repetition of the disease having ever ‘occurred.
