fly during the last week and several large
sales have been made, including both
business and residence property. Real es-
late men say that business always picks

more engaged in %funmaking than in the
more serious affairs Of life. Many lots
have been bought by home builders, some

others contemplate beginning their build
ing operations in the spring.
Property on west L street IN South
Omaha is enjoying a boom since the an
nouncement OF the Omaha & Council Bluffs
street Railway company that a line was
to be extended from Tw~enty-fourth and
o streets to Thirty-sixth and L streets,
through the yards OF the Union Stock
Yards company. This property lays we'll
on the hill, but has been quite a distance
from a car line. For some years the resi-
dents In that locality have been trying to
secure a car line, but there seemed no way
to get one until a new vladuct was built
over l. street, as the present wooden struc-
ture was not considered safe. Another
contest has been started in South Omaha
over the question as to whether the new
lire will be a through line to Omaha OF
a stub to Twenty-fourth and o streets.
The South Omaha merchants want to have
it so arranged that passengers will have
TO transfer before coming to Omaha.
