THE HIGHEST YET PAID.

A Lot Above Dupont Circle Sells for 81
Square Foot.
Architect T. F. Schneide. is preparing for
Lieut.. Clover, OF the Navy, plans for mag
nifcent residence to be erected on lot which
he recently purchased at the intersection of
New Hampshire avenue, Eighteenth and @
streets The house will be built of stone and
will cost something more than 100000. The
price paid for the property, 81 per foot, is the
highest that has been paid In that locality 1t
is indicative of the great advance in value of
real estate in that immediate vicinity. Not
more than three years ago property could be
purchased there less than SO per foot. year
ago 1t was worth from S4 to So foot, while
to-day it cannot be purchased for less than Sc
This rapid rise in value is due to the wonder
ful growth OF this section; which is con-
sidered to be one of the most desirable
in the city. Large and handsome residences
have been erected there recently, while a
number of Others are under construction. The
row OF houses occupying the entire north side
OF q street, between Seventeenth and Eigh-
teenth, which were erected by Mr.. T. f.
Schneider about year ago, had their effect on
the price of land in the neighborhood. Mr..
l.. Ill. Emmert then built three fine residences
on New Hampshire avenue above Dupont
Circle, and Mr.. Schneider now has under con-
struction on the southeast corner of Eighteenth
and Q streets one of the finest houses ever
built in the city. II will be ready for oecu-

THE LINCOLN BANK.

One Of the most important real estate trans
actions Of the week was the purchase by the

which TO erect more commodious quarters
The property is that known as the Seaton
Hall building at the northwest corner of
Ninth and d streets. 1t has a frontage on
Ninth street OF l06 feet and on ID street Of
l22 feet, making total space of 1868
square feet. 1t was purchased from N.
L. Anderson, and the price paid was about
$12 a square foot-a total Of about $50, ,OO0
The present quarters OF the bank became
too limited Tor their steadily increasing
business, and the directors made the purchase
