REAL ESTATE.
Condition of the Market During
the Past Week.

The real estate market for the first week
of the closing month of the year presents
no new features to those already chronicled
during the month Of November. The rains
of the past few days served to brighten up
business considerably, and produced quite
a crop of inquirers besides. The market is
fairly we'll supplied with buyers willing to
invest literally in all sorts of desirable prop
erty in which there is bargain, but hold
ers OF that class OF property remain firm in
their prices. Generally speaking, in al
most every instance where concessions
amounting to anything were made. sale
was effected. There is demand for good
property at fair price.
In country property several sales have
been made during the week, and many ne
gutations, some of considerable Importance.
are still pending. The coming week bids
fair to be one of greater activity than has
been experienced for some time.
