A DEAL IN REALTY.
Thomas Kearns Buys More Ground
at a Fancy Price.

Probably the highest price that was
ever paid for residence lot in Salt
Lake City was last summer, when
Thomas Kearns paid $4,000 ~ Apostle
George Teasdel for 10x10 rods of ground
fronting south and, west on Brigham
and G streets. When the purchase
was made MIR. Kearns commenced
planning for a home that will outclass
any of the splendid mansions on that
street or elsewhere. in the city. Mr..
Kearns' plans, which are in course Of
preparation, make it desirable TO secure
more ground. and yesterday a deal was
closed whereby he bought from zionfs
Savings bank for $1,000 the 4x10 rods
adjoining his premises ON the east. The
deal was negotiated By John g. Lynch.
Last spring this property was con-
tservativeIy valued at. S1,5Oo a rod. The
difference between the price then and
what was paid yesterday is a fair H..
lustratiom of the rapidly advancing
values of real estate on this choicer
residence streets. 5$&@

BANK BUSINESS LARGE.
Salt Lake clearings' Last Week Re-
veal Satisfactory Conditions.

Yesterdays clearings at the Salt Lake
banks aggregated $452, 4S4, compared
with s265, 1SO for the corresponding day
of last year. The weeks elearings were
So, SIG, 6SS, or 81, $50, 1S4 more than for the
first week in October, 1898. The vol
ume of bank business done last week
is more nearly normal than for the two
weeks previous, but the gratifying in
crease, as shown in the clearing house
figures, is largely due to5the greatly i'm
proved business conditions and to the
weeks attractions at the state fair and
elsewhere in the metropolis.
The average increase in clearings last
week for the entire United States was
10 per cent, while Salt Lakes gain for
the week, compared with the same
week of last year, was 124 per cent
Only one other city in the country
showed so large q gain. But these
large gains for Salt Lake are becoming
a weekly occurrence.
Merchants report a larger and more
profitable volume of trade the past
week than during any like period a lrly
in October for ten years, and mar de-
clare that conference and state fair
week in Salt Lake never before brought
nearly so much business to them.

Advances of the Week Were Made
In Mammoth Stock.

DECIDED REVERSE.
Stock of Mercur Mine Maintained Its
Strength-Sales For the Week Ag-
gregated 2oo,415 Shares, Selling
at 500, 667. 76-Yesterday's Clos
ing Quotations.

The condition of mining stocks last
week was not the best. In the early
part of the week there was a feeling
of depression and with few exceptions
stocks were inclined to go lower.
Marked advance was made by Man,
moth, which has been on a steady gain
from the opening on Monday, when
prices ranged around 1920 a share,
while yesterday several sales We're
noted as high as $2.S7 Northern Light
suffered declines, but later in the week
the stock was in better tone and buyers
We're willing to pay better prices for it.
The Mercur stocks, with the exception
of that of the Mercur mine, were in bad
condition and appeared on the bearish
side of the house. The Bowers stocks
made no notable changes. while there
was quite a demand for Yankee Con-
solidated at better figures.
Dexter ruled strong and was ia
vorite among the spectators. The re-
cent development at the mine has
strengthened confidence in the stock
and, with the showing being made, it
appears it will not be very long until
the company will have all the indebted
ness against the mine entirely liqui-
dated. Daly-West was held up to good
figures while Valeo exhibited a decided
weakness.
The sales of the week on the Salt
Lake exchange were as follows:

D. j. Huntsman Speaks of Conditions
In the Camp.

D. ]. Huntsman.- the locator of the
mine in the La Sal mining district

Yesterday. He says that property is

working the mine had carload of ore
at the depot ready for shipment to the
Denver shelters.
The company operating the mine has
decided to take up the bond on the

ing in the mine is favorable, and if
the ore now exposed holds out with
depth he considers it the making of a
big mine.

The ore was encountered in a drift

NAPOLEON AND THE MAYOR.
Old Shoemalxer's Speech Made Hit
with the Emperor.

Old Shoemaker's Speech Made a Hit
with the Emperor.
On the emperor's arrival Mr.. Mayor
was sought to compliment his sover-
eign in a speech worthy of Marsha
tours. He was discovered, like Gin
cinnatus, at the pillow tail, says Black
woods Magazine. He ran home to put
on his best coat with the sasha badge
of his dignity-and arrived in the pres
ence just in time to anticipate the
emperor's departure. In vain he tried
to utter a word, and again in vain;
bowling and scraping he stood fascinat-
ed by Bonaparte's scrutinizing black
eyes-an unhappy squirrel in the gaze
of the rattlesnake. Close behind the
trembling mayor stood an old shoe
maker, in figure true Don Quixote,
clad in his working dress. why
don't you speak, you fool" he mutter-
ed from time to time to his leader. At
last his patience gave way; he pushed
the mayor aside, advanced, with his
left hand removed his greasy cotton
n,ghtcap, with his right lifted the horn
spectacles from his nose, made his
bow and delivered the grafton. EN-
peror, you are on your way to thrash
the Prussian rogues once more. I
hope soon to see you return crowned
with glory, and I have nothing more
to say, but that Caesar and Alexander
could not compare with you" The
emperor laughed and inquired Of the
old man whether he had any sons.
"Yes-four are in the army-two OF
these in the guards" Their names
were taken down, and the honest shoe
maker soon saw them raised to the
rank of officers and found himself pro-
vided with comfortable pension.

on Vicam. Three sharp engagements
were fought before the troops sue
ceeded in entering the stronghold.
The Indians met the government
forces first about a mile from Vicam
and fell back. They rallied again on
the outskirts of the Pueblo and were
driven in. In the three engagements
two Mexicans were killed and 90
wounded, among the latter being two
captains. Forty Yaquis were killed
and the number of wounded is known
to have been heavy. The excessive
heat was something awful. During
the march of 200 men from Ratamotal
