Heavy Sale of Lots in McAnaiIy's Addi-
ton.
For several days past great deal of interest
has been manifested in regard to the announce
ments of lots in McAnally's Addition, and yes
terday afternoon as the hour drew nigh the ex-
element increased, which was augmented by
McCallum & Co., the auctiOneers, sending out
corps of small boys with flags and bells in such
numbers that stranger would have thought
the Swiss Bell Ringers had broken loose or a
division of resimental markers had stormed
the place.
The people proceeded 10 the ground in omni-
buses and whatever conveyance they could pro-
cure, while large numbers went on foot and at
the commencement of the sale there were be-
tween four and five hundred persons present.
The sun was very hot, but by the sid OF um6rel-
lars and ice water furnished al A6atunt, the
crowd endured their discontinue in the hope OF
bargains, which they obtained. The crowd en-
braced capitalists, business men, professional
men, mechanics and laborers, and we are asSur-
ed that it was the largest sale Of lots ever made
in this city, andis conclusive evidence that the
prosperity Of Knoxville is still in the ascendant
McCallum g. Co., managed the matter adj
mirably, and by judicious advertising and hav-
ing plot of the lots drawn off by Mr.. Charles
Warning, were enabled to present the situation
of the lots so that every one could sec eXacCIy
II hat was offered.
Land i'll this locality has rapidly appreciated
during the past few years. tract OF about
seventy acres adjoining the tract sold yesterday
was offered four years ago for 5000, but no
purchaser could be found, and now it is estimat-
ed to be worth $4,000, nearly SIX times as
much.
Ed. Aikers, the talkist, out did himself and
for three hours cried bids in manner that
charmed the car of the owner, Dir. Nc Anally,
and when he sold the last lot was as fresh as a
rose and disposed of a fine watch just to show
| that he WASH TIRED.
