Miletchevitch, the Bervian minister here, has requested United Btates Ambassador Tower to forward to | Washington an authograph letter from King Peter to President Roosevelt. inform- ing him of his accession to the throne. Mr. | Tower accepted the letter and cabled the | fact to Washington. The step taken by King Peter is doubtless designed to bring about a resumption of diplomatic relations between Servia and the United States which lapsed after the assassination of King Al- exander and Queen Draga. John P. Jackson, the United States minis- | ter to Greece, Roumania and Bervia, was making a tour of the Balkane, presenting his credentials at the time of the tragedy and he avolded going to that city on In- structions from Washington. Indirect In- quirles have been made by the authorities at Belgrade as to whether he did not fo- tend to visit King Peter's court, to which he replied that he would not do so until directed from Washington, which, until Ambassador Tower forwarded his dispatch, has not been officially informed that suci a person as King Peter existed. Precifely why the Servian king's letter should have been sent through this embassy instead of the embasey at Vienna does not appear. | Chamberlain' < Remedy Cures Colds on Nature's The most successful medicines are those that ald nature.

Already & number of favoruble comments have been heard from real estate men and from per- sons who own only the houses in which they live, and who have no properly r sale. Ever quo who has had anything to do with real property in Omaha dur- Ing the last year will agree that the very last lngering fll effect of the old boom overgrowth has been left Jehind for all time, and from now on houses and lots and business blocks in this market town will be first-class Investments, showing with every passing year an Increasing per cent of growth in value. column which 18 “The Investment and renting properties owned by non-residents, and also mort- gages, are fast being sold to local invest- said a real estate dealer recently, ‘especially those that can he purchased for $5,00 or under. The man who has been saving his money for weveral years, intend- Ing to soma day put it into an ‘income property,’ hak come to the conclusion that he can buy better now than In the spring of 194, consequently thers {s considerable activity In rental bargains.” There are 8o few really good bargains of this character remaining that some invest- ors are looking for vacant lots close in, where they can erect brick houses—usually double houses—to rent. If the investor can buy the ground at a rensonable figure, say under $2,500, and builds his houses at a cost of $3,000 to $4,000 each, he can rent such property from the time the roof is on, and have the very best of tenants. Probably there 1s no better form of small Invest- ment to be made in real estate than in houses of this character within easy walk- ing distance of down-town. A man of small means could leave no better property to his heirs, for brick property depreciates very little from wear and tear, and prop- erly located, the ground value appreciates very nearly as much as the improvements depreciate. John P. Finley has built more houses of this character than perhaps any other man, and he has found them such a good invest- ment that he contemplates building sev- eral more next year. His houses are all new and well bulit, and he has so little trouble in the care of them that he em- ploys no agent to collect the rents, al- though he has been absent from the -city the greater part of the past year. The prediction made in the early fall that next epring would see a large amount of bullding in resldence districts was wrong only in naming (00 late a time for the movey ment to begin. More building permits have been {ssued this fall than in any previous fall for probably ten years. In every part of town a house here und a house there may be noticed In course of erection. The ¢ viler ones, which were started by Inves- tors more Quick to see the opportunity than the general public, are many of them practically ready for occupation and will become incomie bringers before the end of the year. Many other houses have hardly Dbeen begun, but the construction work will be pushed during cold weather o that they may be ready for the spring demand for rentable houses. Meantime houses are found by homeseek- ers with Increasing difficulty. Two months ago rental agents agreed that there had not been 8o few vacant houses in this city dur- Ing any year of ten past. Since that time, notwithstanding the considerable number of new houlies which have been put on the rental market, the difficulty of finding a place to winter has increased. There are some houses standing empty, but there is in almost every case some particular disad- vantage which would make them undesir- able. Rental agents are of one mind, that in the spring, when the regular movement trom downtown flats and hotels begins, there will be a gentine scramble for houses. {80 the demand for bullding permits in- creases. Speaking of building investments W. H. Thomas, who represents one of the largest loan companies of New York, said: “Investors buy bonds and other high- grade securities ylelding a low rate of In- terest not only for thelr safety, but also on account of thelr easy convertibility. The same Is true of mortgages on good prop- erty. Consequently in making real est investments bringing a larger return thana bond or mortgage, the Investor should ex- ercise care to plan improvements suitable to the location and to construct these in such manner as to appeal most favorably to the investor. Architectural beauty should not be overlooked, but the economic fe: ture conslsts principally in planning fo) the highest possible income that the I:{ tion will permit. These things tend to of convertibllity. “Experience has demonstrated that the following clasees of improvements have not proven satisfactory to the owners, espe- clally where they have attempted to sell or offer them as security for loans: Three or more attached houses; houses having sub- basement, with front entrance under steps lending to second floor; .expensive resi- dences surrounded by cheap cottages; office buildings where valuable ground floor space s destroyed by heavy stone walls or cof- umns. The cumbersome effort foward solidity of construction sacrifices valuable ground floor space and light. In modern office bulldings these disadvantages are overcome by steel construction and large windows." D. Wead reports: ““The three and one- halt acre tract known as the Verga home- stead has been recently purchased by Mrs. Lottle Stemler as an Investment. Mrs. Jacob Kendis has just purchased the property which E. F. Ringer formerly oc- cupled at Twenty-first and Davenport stroets. Mre. Kendis proposes overhauling the house and making it modern and will hold it as an Investment. Miss Naomi Schenck, stenographer in the office of City Clerk Elbourn, has made arrangementy for purchasing 2578 Spaulding street. Mrs, W. B. Prugh has purchased the two-story and basement double house located at 213)-2132 North Twenty-elghth street. These were purchased for an Investment and are now being overhauled at &n expense of several hundred dollars.

Bangs two acres of ground two blocks south of the Country club for speculation. We have a customer who would be very giad to have « bullding forty-four feet in width and five stories high.

TRUST REVELATIONS DEADLY Alleged for Co. report the fol residence to b s Ome of the Main Causes apension of Shipbuild- ing Plant, NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—The fact that “the credit of the shipbullding Industry has been completely destroyed by recent revelations regarding the promotion of the United States Shipbullding company” is given ns one reason for the closing of the Townsend- Downey shipyards at Shooter's island, in a statement issued today by Wallace Dow- ney, president of the Townsend-Downey Shipbuilding company at the offices of the company here. The statement BAY! The temporary embarrassment Townsend-Downey Shiphullding compansy is directly the result of losses and délay in performing contracts incurred through the abominable conditions prevailing in the labor apfl material market during the last two years. The exorbitant demands of workmen and restrictions of volume of work done, added to the impossibliity of se- curing prompfly, from steel manufacturers, material for 8hip construction, has ren- dered it impossible to operate to advantage. | These difficulties and the fact that the | credit of the shipbuilding industry has been completely destroyed by recent revelations [egarding the promotion of the {nited States Shipbullding company has for a time prevented the carrying out of the plans of this company. The company has a valuable property and a_modern equipped plant for shipbullding, dry docking and ship repairs, and after adjustment of pres- ent difficulties will undoubtedly resume business. of the P — It You Are Looking Pain in the Region of the Heart Persons who have pain in the region of the heart, palpitation or heartburn think themselves suffering from heart disease when they seldom have any disease of that organ.
