THE EARTH EARTHLY.
Movements of Realty During the Past
Week-soms of the Notable City Addi-

tione.
The real estate market during the past week
presents no new feature for consideration,
though the condition of it has been rather Pc
culiar' It has been neither dull nor active.
This condition is lot due to any lack of inqui-
ries or any falling off in the general desire to
purchase, but is TO be attributed to dstermi-
nation on the part of both
buyers and sellers to be well satisfied before
doing anything, as 10 what the harvest is to
be. Both sides have been holding of for salts
factory evidence as to what the threshing ma
chimes viii say. Especially has this been the
case with the holders of real estate, who have
not been sc sll anxious to sell. One of the
heaviest operators in real estate remarked
yesterday To the writer that he (the OPERATOR
was 4 bull with the biggest kind of
B. He was pretty well satisfied
that the harvest would be very satisfactory,
but he desired to wait q little lsnger, to know
for 6 certainty what the language of the
threshers is before he disposed of any more
lots. This has been the feeling through the
week. All the time there has been good in
quiry and the market may be described as
strong. The recorded sales for the week foot
up $4,000, This is larger than the sales of
the previous week and yet it is not the
full measure Of the market, as 1t is very well
.
amount, that appears on record, over $3.50, 600
worth of real estate has changed hands during
tie week that has not gone on record, A few
o1these may be mentioned, as follows:
A tract of 160acres in section 81, in the east
part of ST. Paul, ON the line of the st. Paul,
saltwater & Taylors Falls railroad, was sold
yesterday by William L. Ames to John r.
Woolcott, of Minneapolis, for $4,000.
Mr.. E. :. Drake has purchased of Commo-
dOre w. +. Davidson IS feet on the south side
of Third street, opposite the Merchants hotel.
and also Of Mr.. Yandes, S2h feet, alongside
OF the above purchase. For this he paid $3.50
per front foot.
W. B. Jordon and P. Il. Kelly ESQ, have
bought loOxlO0 feet on east Third street, next
below Griggs & Fosters warehouse.
Willius and Weed have sold TO Kenneth
Clark the block now occupied by Strong,
Hacket & Co. on Fourth street, 60xl25 feet TO
an alley, for 1000.
Marh L. Pattee has sold to Ansel Oppenheim
100 feet on the west side of Summit avenue,
nearly opposite the old residence OF II. NJ.
Rice, and between the new residence OF 81. NJ.
Rice, and the lot above, belonging to DR..
Stone, for 10000. This is at the rate of 500
per front foot. Last fall Mr.. Pattee purchased
this property for SO per front foot. The
property bought by Mr.. Drake and by Messrs.
Kelly and Jordon is to be improved imme-
diately, by the erection thereon OF large and
elegant blocks.
IN addition 70 the above it may be stated
that DR.. j. Il. Bryant has just made pur-
chase Of twenty acres south of Summit Park
addition. The property is what is known as
Vests nursery. It is tract Of land that lies
beautifully and will cut up into lots in an ele-
CANT way. 1t is at present in the highest state
OF cultivation and has on it
now over 100000 marketable trees.
The doctor has not determined yet
just when he will plat it: He has obtained
the services OF gentleman from st. Louis to
cultivate the track this fall in case he does not
plat Il. The price paid was 1900.
COMO PARK VILLAGE
vii be right in the center of great activities in
few months. The motor line company are
securing a change of route, so as to run right
TO Como Park village and avenues beyond it,
and running through TO it from University
avenue will be opened before winter. This
will give parties who propose building there
very direct avenues By which TO reach the
city.
Whenever Park avenue is opened through
to Minneapolis tnow partially graded) IL VIII
make one of the most delightful drives be-
tween the two cities, and this midway village
having the broad gauge Manitoba railroad,
motor line cars, and probably street car line
to accommodate its citizens, cannot fail to be-
come one OF the most thrifty of suburban
villages. After the railroad depot is located
and the avenues opened there will be a scene
OF activity there equal to any in the near
suburbs of the city anywhere.
DR.. BRYANT's DDITIoNr
DR.. Bryant has fled the plat OF his new ad-
dition next 20 Palace addition on Summit
avenue, and an elegant one ii is too. 1t lies
high and level and is as beautiful piece of
ground as the sun shines upon. He yesterday
sold six lots out of it for
having $4,000 cash and is
any number of applications for lots, but, like
other real estate dealers, IS not very swift to
sell just at present. II Is in the most desirs-
bic part of town for residences, and will, be-
fore many years, be the garden spot of the
city. The great point with the doctor is 10
always select such tracts for additions as will
be free from heavy grading and costly public
improvements. IN This he is remarkably sue
cessful.
PALACE ADDITION.
This charming addition is in good demand,
but Messrs. Greve, Oppenheim Clark are in
no hurry to sell but prefer to wait little.
