Brown fur OF all sorts is in high favor, but
for the use upon cloth wraps of blue, or red,

often chosen, and is much better style.
Velvet Jokes and heavy deep cloth pleats

Braiding grows more and more the rage

SLOW ABOUT SELLING.
Real Estate Owners in Anticipation of Boom
are Advancing Prices Again.

The real estate market presented no unusual
features the last week The trade was not as
active as it was the two previous weeks, and the
sales made were nearly ali of minor Importance.
There appears to be no 1ull in the demand for
good property. but holders are still
slow about selling, and there is soma complains
that IN many cases valuations are placed too
high to tempt buyers. During the last month
there has been very declded tendency to in
crease valuations of downtown property. and
dealers say if the increase should continue it
VIII have tendency to depress the market.
There is yet plenty of unimproved real estate
on the market and consequently the
trade is confined principally TO that
class of property. Many farms that have
been recently plated about the suburbs are
being sold rapidly at moderate prices, and many
men of moderate means are purchasing lots on
which they propose to build the coming sum-
Haughville are in great demand and since the
LIST of January over one hundred lots in that
locality have been sold. While the demand is
perhaps not so great in othe. directions from the
city, all the suburbs are selling great deal of
property that will bring them an increased pop
ulation during the year.
During the week there were sixty-one deeds
recorded, representing property valued at $87,-
716 rs. There were but few deeds recorded that
called for more than SIS. 000 and they were for
farms in various parts OF the county.
The building season has not yet opened, but if
the weather will permit, contractors expect to
ers say that they have more contracts on hand
now than at the date in any previous
year. They are preparing for an unusually
active season.

said he procured it for the purpose of commit
ting suicide. Andrews is fifty EIGHT years of
age. He denies having committed the crime.
