The old rickety wooden shanties, at
the northeast corner of Seventh and
Washington street, which for twenty five
years nave been an eyesore to that part

The corner lot, one of the most valuable
in the city, was formerly the properly
of ?. N. Brennan, but was recently
purchased from him by A. j. Peters,
and the latter gentleman is now digging
out the foundations preparatory to the
erection of eight three.story houses, six
of them fronting on Washington s.reet,

that he had been poisoned by Paris
