before III several years is evidenced
anew by a 100000 sale yesterday by
the Excelsior City Lot Company Of
business and residence lots on South
Wilson street extended
Outside capitalists bought 100 feet
frontage just below Dan Warrens for
the purpose Of putting in a lumber
yard and six residence lots where they
WI. build homes IN the near future
and reside with their families All
of these lots lie on the east side of
South Wilson street extended, and
were sold at prices which a few
months ago would not have been con-
sidered within reason One OF these
men remarked, I'VE consider your
lots on South Wilson street much
more reasonable at $50 a front foot
than anything else we have been able
to get prices on" And he must have
meant it for he went ahead and made
tie purchase.
The company says Il Is besieged
daily with requests for prices on lots
but will not make them until the i'm.
proyements are in and the first open.
ing An exception was made in the
sale yesterday because of the amount
Of ground the parties wanted and In
order to invest in other enterprises
and for the reason that the sale was
on the east margin Of the addition
and will not interfere with our home
people securing the residential prop
erty they have been so interested in.
