had thrilling experience while stand
ing near rapidly revolving gin. The
8 ction was of strength sufficient to
catch the skirt of his coat and carry it
to the saws, and IN this manner the
garment was literally pulled from his
back. It is eaid that number of car
trldges were in one of the coat pockets,
and the wonder is that, if true, these
were not exploded by the saws. For
tunately, Mr. Arroline was not hurt
though the coat was sliced into strings
and lodged in the gin.

REAL ESTATE NOTES AND TOPICS


failing sign is the number Of inquiries
received concerning property. These
inquiries will soon bud into sales
with the coming Of warmer wealth
er, and many real estate men are
impatiently waiting for the cold
winds to cease blowing that the
tender plants may do their bud
ding for they have enough deals in
view now to keep them busy for some
time. There is no doubt that the sea-
son Of 1904 is going to be a busy and
profitable one for real estate men.
There are a few dealers not so opti-
mistic, but those in a position best to
know are confident that this will be
livelier year than many recent ones.
Building Operations.
There is one thing particularly no.
ticeable about buildings in course Of
erection or being planned, and that is
the increase in the number of resi-
dences of the better grade, or rather,
a decrease in number of cheaply con-
structed houses. The day of the
'glued-together' house of handsome
appearance but Of shoddy material
and poor workmanship is evidently
past, and a most cOmmendable change
it Is, too. From all indications, this
viii be a banner year-nothing like a
boom (Heaven forbid!) but a healthy,
SEOWLL-lD
lions. And this growth will be very
evenly divided over the whole city,
with little more activity in the d.
rection of Minneapolis. But no part of
town will be greatly sighted, for
houses are springing up in every
neighborhood.
The high rents have had their effect
upon the erection of fiat buildings and
this year will see several new fats of
two and three stories going up. Own
ers of fiat buildings are at last drawing
handsome incomes from their proper
ties and there are others seeking to
get share of the prosperity. And that
they will succeed is not at all unlikely,
for the demand is still great, and as
long as such is the case rates will GER
tainly not lower. That they are rather
high and out of proportion to the in
| creased cost of fuel, labor and ma
| terial for repairs cannot be denied, but
| the conditions are so general through
out the country that so long as ST.
Paul is prosperous we cannot complain.
| 1t is to be hoped that the unusual ac-
| tivity in building operations will soon
have the effect of discouraging any
further possible increase in rents, but
rather bring about slight reduction.
