the body was not found until Monday
evening, when two small boys found
the horribly mangied corpse at the
foot of an embankment. When the
train reached Hood River Friday
night, a piece OF a whisky bottle was
found on the COW catcher but no in
vestigation was made as to how 1t
came there. Another piece OF the
bottle was In the poOKet of the dead

ed much below par, some shares sell

dollars of stock held by A. s. Blowers

by the Hall interests.
The rumors have been to the effect
that the change in ownership might
result in tuning the local telephone
concern over to the Bell trust but Mr..
Hall says that he has had no advances
made to him for the stock which he
holds and that he is huying II as an
investment. There has been a gener al
activity in telephone ciioles all over
the country during the past few weeks
and there seems to be a gigantic
merger OF the telephone and telegraph
interests but the Hood River deal
does not seem to be part Of 1t.
1t has also been rumored that there
would be an advance In the tele.
phone rates charged by the local COM
pany. In regard to this Mr.. Hall
says that he has been In favor OF
raising the rates for some time and

that he did not contemplate any i'm.

New 18th Street Dwelling.
In the past week a deed was placed on
record by which large frontage on the
east side of 18th street between l. and NJ
streets was transferred TO Mrs. Anna L..
Morton, the wife of Levi P. Morton, the
former Vice President of the United
States. The details of this transaction
have already been given. but it has not
been certainly known who the purchaser
is. 1t is stated to be the intention of
Mrs. Morton to have a house erected
there and that New York architect is
preparing plans.
The structure will be, it is expected, a
notable addition to the domestic archi-
lecture of the city. To the north of 1t a
house is to be erected by Mrs Candee.
while plans are now being preparing by
the same architect, Mr.. Wyeth. to build
on the south a house which Mrs. Pull

The Market for Land.
Real estate brokers find the feature
of the market which was prominent some
weeks ago is still apparent in current
transactions and that there is demand
for ground by those who want to build A
good proportion of the sales that have
been made in recent months have been of
this kind, and have been directly due to
demand Of this sort. In fact, what has
been done du.ing the past few months
sales of realty on account of the building
activity were left out of the general sum-
mary.
Small building plots are not much in
demand, so it is said. The kind of prop
erty that Is desired at this time, as has
been the case for some time past, is
ground enough to permit the erection of
several houses or of one good-sized build
ing such as an apartment house. The
single lot with frontage of twenty-five
or less feet does not appear to be
disable just now. There are comparative
ly few people who build houses for their
own use. that is. of moderate size. They
prefer to buy what some one else has
built.
Marked Change in Values.
This change in conditions has undoubt-
eddy had an influence upon the price of
land, and when the competition of the
large tracts that have been made avail
able by rapid transit railways is taken
into consideration. it is not surprising
that land. values. at least in the purely
resident sections of the CITY, have
changed.
The most radical effect has been, of
course. upon the value of single lots, as
the market for them has been growing
smaller. The larger plots. those having

Are Women Less Honest Than Mene

This palpitatng question has become one
of the great subjects of discussion in

There is not one dares openly to affirm
that woman is dishonest Anatole
France, the matter of contemporary
French literature. questions whether man
IS so virtuous that he should desire to

for many years the lots were not in de-
mand; in fact, the squares could not be
defined, save on paper, or located until
the corner stone in the southeast corner
of each was stumbled upon and the num-
Der ascertained. Indeed, when the
ground was cleared fopthe streets. over
half a century before necessary for the
public, there was much of the primeval
growth left: and as far south as 0 street
some old oaks were standing In the
fifties. Much of the values were sta
tionary during greater part of this last
century, fractions OF cent more often
representing them, the one-cent rate of
1902 being four years later reduced to
sixths. fourths and halves. In ante-bellum
times two graveyards. several gardens
and brick kiln and yard were here. but
dwellings were scarce. Up to 1920 the
only improvements taxed were one on
Vermont avenue between . and r streets
for $500 to John Wells one in the square
east for $50 to - Warren; and there
were two frame houses between o, p.
nth and 10Th streets not listed. OF
course there were roads to graveyards
and houses, but no pretense was made of
following the street lines.
