Lots are 20 by l2s feet in size.
Remington avenue 10 70 feet wide and
all other streets are IS feet wide.
The distance from the business center ID
so short that many persons will prefer to
walk down town mornings. For those
who wish to ride the Lake Washington
(Madrona Park branch of the Union
Trunk line passes through the center Of
the tract and affords excellent service.
The Yesler avenue cable road is only 2X
blocks south of Squire Park and the
Madison street cable road is only few
minutes walk north, so that the trans
portation facilities are all that could pos
sibiy be desired.
The location everyone is familiar with
and the lay Of the land is beyond criti-
cism. Every lot is . coed one and the
view includes Elliott bay. the Olympics.

SQUIRE
PARK

Is located between Fourteenth and
Twenty-second avenues, and was designed
by nature to be one Of the choicest resi-
dence districts in the city. Seattle has
built up to and around it on all sides and
for years there has been an urgent de-
mand for lots in this beautiful tract.
The main reason Why this property has
not been placed on the market before is
that Senator Squire wisely proposed to
make certain preliminary Improvements
himself and follow out . definite and
comprehensive plan to assist nature in
establishing Squire Park as . district to
be sought for a. . place Of residence by
the best people.
With this idea in view the property has
been cleared IS probably no other tra4
within the city limits Of Seattle has been.
Everything standing has been slashed and
burned and the stumps grubbed out and
burned.
There's clearing and clearing, but
Squire Park is cleared, you may depend
upon it.
After clearing the tract Senator Squire
had the street grades established by the
city and has graded the principal streets
At his own expense. This is something
that will be fully appreciated by persons
intending to build. They can build on
graded streets with the grade tax paid
and know in advance just how their lots
lie with reference to the street grade.
This is the first tract in Seattle where the
streets were graded before . house was
built.

4 Tramp's Strange Escape From Arrest.
Henry McCurrie, the grocer on Ballard
avenue, Ballard. ordered an insolent tramp
out Of his store about o'clock on Tues
day evening. and when he refused to go
threw him out on the sidewalk, giving him
. parting kick a. he left the door. Tho
hobo became more abusive and belliger-
ent. when Constable George Shields put in
an appearance and proceeded to arrest
him. A general rough-and-tumbles cuffle
took place, McCurrie assisting the con-
stable. The tramp was becoming submits
sive under the united efforts of the gro
ceryman and constable, when Mrs.
Thomas Matthews. whose mind is un-
hinged, and one of whose manias is the
belief that she is possessed Of the spirit of
electricity. which gives her peculiar pow
srs, came to the rescue. She seemed TO be
charged with several powerful dynamos,
for she rushed like fury upon Shields
aud McCurrie and gave each Of them re-
sounding slap on the face, which so sur
prised them and distracted their atten-
ton that the tramp escaped.

Paris TO his father In Seattle: 81 was
talking with Prof Brissaud this morning
Of Washington. He told me that \ pro-
fessor at the Soroonne told him the other
day in speaking OF Seattle that there was a
large lake back of the city and that if ever
a canal was cut from this lake to the ocean
this American village would Immediately
become q great city; that Seattle had a
harbor equal to that of San Francisco. and
that it WAS bound 10 ousstTip the latter
city. You may be sure l was surprised 10
