together until the cable was as tight as

of wire were taken around the center
of the cable already stretched, and
over the third hook, and this hook was

directed the hooks will be firm and
will become firmer as the new wood

FRENCH CRITICS OF

stances of luxury and debauchery of
the ancients and also of the French dur

deal with the light thrown on American
life and legal methods.
Gil Bias says the trial arouses great
interest in America, not in itself, but be-
cause Thaw is a millionaire
Newspapers fail to understand District
Attorney Jerome on American legal prac-
tice. Mr.. Jerome is called the most re-
One writer says Jerome would dishonor
President Roosevelt himself to convict
Thaw, but meanwhile he dishonors his
better, the charming Evelyn. The Amer
lean prosecutor, the writer says, has but
one object-to discredit the living in
nocent in order to save the guilty dead.
The United States is truly superior
country, with conception of morality
extremely delicate.
Another writer, falling utterly to COM
prehend American legal tactics, as ex-
hibited during the, trial declares that
never have such questions been addressed
to a witness as those with which Je-
rome piled Mrs Evelyn Thaw. He says
Jerome is either vicious man or dan

EXPECTS ACTIVE MARKET.
samuel 7. smith Optimistic on the
Real Estate situation.

ASsA AastAtE EfkUAAABns
Samuel T. Smith, OF the s. r. Smith
Realty Company. is certain that the
coming summer viii be an active season
in real estate, especially suburban prop
erty. In speaking Of the conditions OF
the market yesterday, he said:
while the real estate market has been
rather quiet for some time, indications
point to very active season this spring
and sumner. Especially will this be true
in regard 20 suburban property.
IN many Of the subdivisions contin-
ued AFR. Smith. medium sized HOUSES are
being erected and offered on reasonable
terms giving an opportunity TO persons
of moderate means to purchase homes in
this way, where heretofore they have
been unable to do SO. The advent of new
and better street car service. which has
been provided for several of the suburban
sections. and promised TO others, viii
improve and enhance the value of prop
erty in these localities. For this reason
| am certain that investments made this
year viii prove profitable 10 the pur-
chasers i'm the rise in the value of their
lots witbin the next few years
Personally I take an optimistic view
of the future of realty holdings in and
about Washington. Many millions of doll
lars are being spent by the government
for new buildings and for public im-
provements. The population of the city
is growing at a greater rate than ever
before IN its history, "a more concerted
action 10 better conditions commercially
and TO promote the welfare of the District
is being taken by the business organlza-
tons. Washington is becoming more and
more the social and educational center Of
the country. Outside wealth is seeking
investment in the Nations Capital All
these things lead me 10 believe that great
things are in store for those who now
invest in real estate in the District of
Columbia.
While business property is high some
Of il in the uptown section is selling at

the rich from all parts OF the country are
