You've entirely overlooked a very

realty operator to a reporter yesterday.
What was that?''
why, the Ellison episode, You see
our respected fellow townsman, Uncle
John ELLISON, got an inkling of the fact
that the railway needed the lot occupied
by one of his houses on the south side.
With foresight worthy a Napoleon Of
finance Uncle John announced that the
place was dirt cheap at SIO,O For a
time all efforts to convince John that his
quotation was altogether to altitudincus
were ~unavailing. Finally some emissaries
explained to John that his property could
be condemned and bought for about $500.
Then he let loose for $500 and was allowed
to move away his house.
