City Realty.

The demand for all kinds Of city prop
erty keeps up, but not SO strong as that
experienced during the months of Octo-
Der and November As it is the sales in
the city are greater for December than
for any previous month in 1900. There
are great many inquiries for city prop
erty, but the demand for tenement
houses is the greatest. Any kind of Il
house could be rented now at good stiff
prices. There are many people still
living in tents and it is likely they will
have to remain in them till spring.
There are number of houses in course
OF erection but the winter weather has
eased off building operations some. BY
the time spring opens it is expected that
building in this city will be greater than
ever before.
