The CoLuxBA TOURNAMENT Several
of our fire companies are considering n
visit to Columbia, to participate in tho
tournament; and it is not unlikely that
the "City by the Sea" will be repre-
rented at the "festival of the fremen. "
The Etna and Marion companies held
meetings last night, and talked over the
matter. The Etna proposed to the Ma
rion to take tho reel Of tho latter oom-
pany, man it with delegations from both
companies, and enter It in the contest
There IL no doubt but that tho Marions
will accept theI proposition. The Etnas
will carry their steamer. II may be
safely Esid 70 our Aremen that they will
receive q hearty welcome from their Co.
lumbia brethren. Charleston Neeos.

As no name has get been given blythe Park
Commissioners to the boulevard that is to take
the place Of Western aveune between the 90
acre park as the intersection Of Pavilion-park
way (Ffty-fifth street) and Douglas Park On the
West Side, we adhere to the old name in speak
ing OF the recent progress made BY the Park
Commissioners to acquire tho land On the east
side of Weetern avenue south of the csnal The
Commissioners have within the last few
weeks closod contracts with the Hon. John
Wentworth, Mr. Mars. and John Mocadrey,
leaving only few other parties
with whom they have not settled. These
they hope to agree with before the fall work be-
cius. II so they will prepare the boulevard for
tree-planting early in the spring. It hak been
decided to treat this north and south drive the
SAME as Drexel boulevard. When completed
there will BE-, commencing at the canal, some 8
miles Of boulevard on the South Side that can
not te exceiled any where. It must soon be-
come the pride OF al our citizens, where they
vail take thei1 friends from distance to show
them what the taste and the energy Of Chicago
can within half dozen years accomplish.
Il ia to bo hoped the Park Commissioners will
complete their purchase OF ill the land east Of
Western avenue for the boulevard as soon u
possible, for We publshod, on Wednesday last, !
sale OF acres on the corner OF Forty-drst
street, and lying between Western and Blanch-
ard avenues. for s22. MO,-very nearly 81 4500 per
acre. There must haze been some trade about
it, for the figure ia considerably above the price
OF land IN that vicinity.

REAL ESTATE.
SALES OF THE WEEK.


An important negotiation for the ea1e Of boule-
ward property on the South Side has been In
progress for the last Two weeks. We Are not At
liberty to give full particulars, as some Of the
details havo not get been arranged, hut can say
that when announced it will prove one Of the
most interesting transactions that have besn
made this year. Tho purchaser is one Of the
wealthiest citizens Of the Far Ncet. and he has
decided that his bonanza profits could not be in-
vested to more advantage than here. This
is not his first investment in Chicago
property. He recently bought III lots on the
West Side. The fact that he continues his pu1-
cbases Of it shows the confidence Which he feels
in its fnture- The amount OF money turned
over in this transaction makesit the largest real
estate sale OF the year go faz. The seller is one
Of the Chicago operators in real estate full Of
aspirations in name hs we'll as in natnre.
