STEADY REALTY.
"A Solid Boom in Progress all the TIme
The Record of the Week.

feature this week that requires specia
mention 1t has been characterized b,
the same healthy, sturdy tone that ha
prevailed all along through the season
The principal distinguishing feature of i
is the same that has prevailed al
the season. If there is anything tho
people of st. Paul are conservative in
regard to it is lin the purchase of real

Improvement The great Coolican, who
came here from Winnipeg to show us
how to sell real estate, gagged the people
of St. Paul very correctly when he SAID
they were too rich and solid to plunge
headlong into real estate purchases He
Judged our people in connection with the
Winnipeg craze, where corner lots. and
inside lots too, for that matter, bring
such fabulous SUMS Except IN one or
two places in st. Paul, real estate is not
high. The people here do not enthuse
very much in regard to it. They buy and
sell to make money, not to take the
chances of the gambler and the dealers
in options, with their ''puts' and ''calls. y
If there is anything in which
solidlty is uppermost it is in the transac-
tons IN real estate. There is no Gloom, >
but a good, healthy, vigorous state of
feeling that comes from healthy, steady

that attract the attention of
all who visit the city. Mr.. Hermann
Greve's new block on Fourth street will

drawn and it is probable that it will be
the handsomest frontO any building in
St. Paul. 1t is to be OF iron and very
ornamental, while the body of the struc-

building at the foot of Fourth street.
Work on the new capitol is quite active
and a large force of workmen is engaged
upon the walls. The old Wigwam has

ness streets of the city are progressing
very satisfactorily. In all parts of the city
excavations are being made and
