So far as may be judged from outward
indications the pa week does not seem
10 have shown a noteworthy improve
ment OF the reai estate market while,
of course. there has been about the
usual amount OF ordinary transactions,
none Of special interest or Importance
was recorded. At the same time II must
be said that sentiment among the brok-
ers has apparently lost nothing of the
confident tone which has characterized
il thus far In the current season. on
al sides the inquirer is met with as
surances that the prospect is fairly
promising; that a number Of more or
less important deals are being ''nursed.
and that several are near TO consum-
nation but not yet in such condition
as 70 make It advisable 20 give them
publicity.
OF one thing. however. there can be
no doubt; there is a steady and per
ceptibly increasing inquiry as TO Wash
ington real estate from intending in
vestors in other cities. The profitable
ness of this class Of Investments in the
District has been and continues 10 be
demonstrated in so forcible and strik-
ing manner that it cannot fail TO at
tract the attention Of persons who have
idle funds at their command. Another
phase Of the situation Is the growing
popularity OF Washington as a place Of
residence for people OF means and cul-
ture, while as a winter residence for the
rich OF other cities its attractivcness
is made clear by the purchases that
have been made within the past few
years. and which in turn serve as an
incentive 20 others
Suburban Development
Nothing so strikes the observer as the
steady march of development OF the su-
burban sections OF the District. The
best and most noteworthy feature Of
this progress is that IL is not confined
10 any particular locality. but extends
IN every direction. The general rule
that the trend of city growth is always
toward the west comes very near TO ex-
periencing All exception IN this instance,
for while it must be conceded that the
western and especially the northwestern
parts OF the District enjoy a rarely
equaled popularity. 1t is also true that
the eastern sections are getting their fun
share of attention The numerous SUD-
divisions that have been opened up there
have not failed OF large patronage In
fact. II is probably true that in the num-
Der Of transactions the east is quite
the equal OF the west; the difference
Is in the amounts involved, because
property in the former section does not
command as high a price as II the lat
Ter. Conceding that persons Of moderate
means seek homes in the eastern sec
ton. while the more OpuIent select the
west. the gratifying fact is patent that
there is a fairly uniform development
and upbuilding Of the National Capital

A Tacky Party.

Yesterday afternoon at the Wright
home, on Sycamore street, Mrs. Geo.
A. Wright entertained the ladies of
the Woman's Social club with tacky
party, and the Herald is assured that
the affair was decidedly the ''tackiest"
thing ever given in Palestine. Every
one came tacky, real tacky, all kinds
of tackiness-old time, up to- date and
beyond. Old time music was render
ed, and many of those present told
old yarns in clever way.
Progressive finch was the game for
the afternoon, following which re-
freshments were served by the hos
tess. The entertainment concluded
with good old Virginia reel, and the
ladies all went home happy, voting
Mrs. Wright most charming hostess.

Russia Fires on British Ship
And Stops American Boat.

BY Private Wire Black, Stages & Col
New York, Feb. 13.-Following are
the Herald's headlines today on the
war situation:
Russians fire upon British ship, and
detain an American steamer.
Alexieff informs Car of the sinking
of Russian torpedo transport Yiemsei
and the loss of four officers and ninety
one men near Port Arthur.
A great land battle is expected at
the Yolu river. Japanese troops are
landing in great numbers, their desti-
nation being Chemulpo and Seoul.
