Investing IN Real Estate SecuTi1Ies'
The advertisements In q Newspaper are
quite often It's most interesting items Of
news and business. Not lnfrequently they
show the tendencies Of the public mind
~ much as tho more prominent items In
the reading columns Of the paper. This
being the case, such advertisements o.
the following, which we find in the
Cincinnati Commercial, would seem TO add
force TO the opinion recently expressed by
ast. Louis paper to the effect that there
is q growing tendency on the part Of
the public since the panic 70 invest in
real estate securities, and that in all prob.
ability we shall see an upward move.
ment in real estate itself all over
the country during this year. The first
advertisement from the Commercial Is as
follows:
Wanted-To Loan-$25 900 in two
sums 8 per cent; mustbe real estate in
the city.
Eight per cent: Is considered cheap for
money in the Cincinnati market. Cen
orally speaking money Is loaned there at
ten per cent. and not infrequently at
twelve, and even more, to casual porrow'
ers. The minimum bank rate Is per
cent. to favored borrowers: Therefore an
offer Of $4,000 at that price shows that
security is the main object aimed at on
the part Of the lender. ,,...
This same sort Of feeling, desire for
security, leads one party 10 loan his
money on real estate and another party
perhaps to invest in the real estate itself
Here for instance are two or three adver.
tisements Of the latter character:
"Wanted-To inYest-$l0O,00O in real
estate, would prefer business property
must pay 10 per cent; will pay $4,000
cash; balance In one and two years. Ad.
dress Box 6S7, city"
Wanted-To fnyest-$4s,OOO in cash
for real estate; must be In city, and pay
good interest, and at bargains; would pre-.
fer corner or business property. Address
Southern, this Office"
Wanted-To Buy-Business property
worth from $25, 1000 to $50 900 cash; must
pay 10 per cent. Address ]. O., this
office. -a.IIr. ,
In addition to these advertisements VIC
find one Offering to loan one hundred
thousand dollars on real estate first
mortgages, in sums to suit borrowers, and
another offering to buy ground rents tc
any amount Also one Offering to ex-
change merchandise for real estate, and
stillanother wanting to buy residence ii
good locality in the vicinity for 1000.

Special to the San Francisco Chronicle
PohTLAND, OREGON, December o.
The neighbOrs of Mrs. Mary Farley, re-
siding on Fourth street, were startled
by hearing terrific outcries proceeding
from her dwelling, and repairing to the
spot, found she had broken the furniture
and dishes, and was acting like a crazy
person generally. One of the neigh
bors, knowing that Mrs. Farley had q
babe about three months old, and not
seeing it about the dwelling, instituted
a search, and the babe was found in the
stove, burned to crisp. Mrs. Farley
SAYS she beat its head on the floor before
putting it in the stove. Mrs. Farley was
in the insane asylum some five years
ago, and was discharged as cured. She
was taken in custody, and will, of
course, again be sent TO the asylum.

Judge had been on the watch for
Mr.. Buchanan for a day or two, and
learning that he was down street, the
Judge took his little shotgun and hunted
him up, finding him in the rear Of his
store on Ohio street, and banged away
at him at q dozen PAGES. Mr.. Buchanan
fell to the ground, but got up and
walked up into the cooperative store
and was conveyed to his residence. The
shot took effect in the right hip and
the front of the left leg, inflictiDg q
severe but not fatal wound. About sixty
bird-shOt were taken from his wounds,
and he is doing well. 1t is regretted by
all classes, and the best-ihformed say
the end is not yet. The judge delivered
himself up to the authorities, and was
bound over, in the sum of one thousand
dollars, 10 answer to the charge

DISASTROUS STORM.
Immense Destruction to Telegraph

Entirely Cut OF from the
East.
AT CINCINNATI. OHIO.

CINCINNATI, January THE force
of the storm seems TO have centeTed
about in this parallel, and one hundred
miles east of here. Superintendent
Williams reports that the telegraph
lines on the Marietta railroad, betweeu
ChillicOthe and this city, for distance
of forty miles, are entirely blown down.
The lines on the Muskingum Valley
railroad are frightfully disabled between
Lancaster and Wilmington. No word

any point further east than Xenia and
Springfield. Men have been put t.
work on all the routes, and telegrapbic
communication will be resumed as far
as possible. No reports have been re
ceived yet of the damage of railroad
and private property. At ten o'clock
