SALE OF LOTS PRINCE GEORGE BRITISH COLUMBIA ITUATED at the confluence of the Fraser and Nechaco Rivers in Central British Columbia, 450 miles north-east of Vancouver, B.C., and 467 miles east of Prince Rupert, B.C., or midway between Prince Rupert and Edmonton, Alta., on the main line of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. q By reason of its central location, Prince George will be the natural distribut- ing point for the extensive territory comprised in the Pacific Province of the Dominion, and it has therefore long been the tation of the general public that upon the completion of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, Brin ce George will early become a large and important centre.

S London, 15.— In the battleship Reshadieh, which has just been launched by the Vickers Company at Barrow, Turkey has a vessel equal in size and speed to any afloat for a Mediterranean power. Except for the French battleships recently launched, the Reshadieh is superior to the lat- est ships to take the water in the Mediterranean, whether the com- parison iS made on‘the ground of displacement, tonnage or gun power. Hence the launching of the vessel is an event of surpass- ing ‘interest and importance not only for the Ottoman navy, but for all who follow the progress of the world’s navies and the bal- ance of the sea power. The Reshadieh, begun in 19114, but délayed in construction while the Balkan war was in progress, is due to be commissioned next year. In displacement she re- sembles the British battleships of the King George V type, her ton- age being 23,000, compared with the 23,000 of the French Bretagne, the 21,500 of the Italian Doria and the 20,000 Austrian Viribus Unitus. In full load draught there will probably be jlittie difference between the Reshadieh and the Bretagne, but the former has a margin Sept. as good TURKEY’S NEW WARSHIP FOR THE MEDITERRANEAN LAUNCHED SUPERIOR TO ANY SHIP IN THE GREAT SEA EXCEPT ONE RE- CENTLY LAUNCHED BY FRANCE—PORTE MAKING UP LOST TIME.
