An item in the CHRONICLE few days

The Dakota Daily Capital Of December,
10Th, comes to us with the following en-

Phil. Skeehan was offered $500 yes
terday for his Main street property, oc-
cupied by the Tivoli, and refused the
offer. BOzeman real estate is gradually
becoming firmer and to-day it is impos-
sible to obtain sacrificial bargain. In
asmuch as strangers are every day DEM
onstrating their confidence it stands to

and derive some of the benefits that are
as sure as the rise in reality values.

he does it well, and to him this part of
the country is much indebted for reada-
bic newspaper articles, advertising Mon !
tana, and it's resources. He can find out
more and wear out faber faster than
any man we know of. If You want an ,
item, he can give it to you. If You feel /:
blue over the DrOspects talk to him and ,
