REAL ESTATE MATTERS.

REAL ESTATE MATTERS. The Hot Weather Dullness-A Few
 Permits to Build-Buflding Opera-
 tions in Town Now in Progress
 Talk of a Coming Boom.
 The real estate business will soon emerge l from it's summer dullness. Just now it is | pretty dull. There were only three or four warranty deeds recorded at the town clerks office this week and those were of minor importance. There were, however, five or six quit claim deeds brought in for record, several attachments and few other deeds, and Town Clerk Brethaurer and his assistants were kept busy. It was hot work, however, for all the men in the office yesterday, and for all the week for that matter. Precipitation raE down their faces in streams and hardly 6 breath hoated through the open windows to re- ieve somewhat the irksomeness of toil The approach of fall will be gladly well comed, both by builders and the recorders of their operations.
 Those experienced in real estate affairs say there will be decided quickening of the building interests of this city in the near future.
 Circumstances all favor revival of real estate activity in this city. The city is growing at 8 rapid rate, houses are we'll rented, business is good and promises to be better, and people are more and more turn ing their attention to home investments.
 The boom is expected to be largely in the homes, costing with the lot $5,OO0 or $6, O00 The general plan is to secure @ large tract of land in good location-there are many such in New Haven-lay it out into building lots and erect few frst-class cot tages of varying design. These can be mortgaged permanently for 8 good part of their cost, purchasers paying down as much as possible and giving second mortgage back for the remainder. There are many capital to put into house, who would be glad to own their own homes .and would gradually pay off all indebtedness. The plan has worked successfully in other cit ies and there is no question but that it would here.
 Work in the new Yale dormitory is pro- | gressing very rapidly. It is now up to the | third story, and Contractor Church expects | to have it enclosed by September 20, as it | is President Dwight's idea to have it shut in before the September storms occur. | Sy goes forward rather slowly. The iron run ming track around the third story has just
 been placed in position. By accurate
 measurement sixteen times around this
 ring covers one mile. Contractors c. D.
 Kinney and James A. Church are HOW
 waiting for new shipment of glass to finish shutting in the roof. It is not ex-
 pected that the gymnasium will be ready
 for occupancy before September, 1892.
 The work on the addition to William
 Nicely S Co.'s store on Center street is
 going on very smoothly. There has been
 some delay in getting theiron columns and
 girders, but Contractor L. V. Treat ex.
 poets to have the roof on by the 10th ot September. James Scott & Son, the car
 penter contractors, have large force of
 men working on the interior.
 The Associated Charities building or
 Orange street is nearly completed. Clark
 & Thompson's men are now laying the
 double floors and putting on the interior
 finish, and Contractor Kinney is putting
 the finishing touches on the walls and cell
 ings. The 1st of October will probably set
 it ready for occupancy.
 | The brick work of the new building
 which will be occupied by Monson & Car
 penter is now one story high on the two sides and rear and Contractor Georg
 Rockwell is placing the girders and joist
 in position for the second floor. If tn
 weather is favorable it is expected t.
 have it enclosed by the first of November Mason Contractor George M. Grant has large force of men at work on the build , ing.
