The dcsirablencss Of Englcwood as sub
uEb of Chicago has long been extolied OIL
account of its accessibility, but for some rea-
son it has not advanced in proportion to
some OF the other suburbs. Among the
drawbacks may be mentioned the lack Of
sewerage and gas, both Of which defects arc
now to be cured. The prospect of al abund-
ant supply OF water as soon as tie town
shall have separate works from those of
Hyde Park has again brought this locality
to the front.
The transfer of the Board Of Trade to

and Rock Island Roads makes Eng1e-

many are holding on with the
expectation Of still greater advances. 4
prominent railroad official, who has large
amount of property OIL Wabash, Michigan,

prospects Of Il large advance.
The auction sale OF Turner d Bond of the
Normal Park property opens up another very
desirable locality in this rapidly-growine
suburb. Englewood is reached BY the
Lake Shore. Rock Island, Pittsburs
y Fort Wayne, Eastern Illinois,
Grand Trunk, and Wabash Railroads.
Tile. Lake Shore and Rock Island Col1l-

and this year tile amount will be trebled or
QuadrupIed. The Rock Island has a fast
