ATTORNEY HOWARD TO REMOVE.
Goes Next Week to Pipestone to Join
Legal Firm There.

The Gazette learns with regret
that Attorney c. T. Howard is going
to remove from this city, where he
has made his home the past twelve
years, and has shown himself an ac-
tive and loyal citizen, and take up
his residence at Pipestone.
We learn that the circumstances
which have led to Mr.. Towards de-
cision are mainly opportunities for
getting in touch with a more lucra-
tive practice than is offered here.
Mr.. Howard admits that he has
never had more work in his line
in sight than now, but judging
by past experience, the Pipestone
proposition is still, more promis-
ing in financial way. Mr. How
ard will next week become a mem
Der of the firm of James, Howard &
James, the junior partner of the firm
being the Assistant Attorney Gen
eral who assisted Attorney Emerson
at the recent trial of Virgil Mallet
in this city.
Pipestone will find Mr.. Howard a
live citizen and a hard fighter as a
lawyer. His experience in this coun-
ty as county attorney for two terms
and recently as probate judge, added
to his previous practice as railroad
attorney in South Dakota, has ia
miliarized him with a wide range of
legal practice, in all of which his
record will bear inspection.
We understand that Mr.. Howard s
family will remain here for several
months, until weather and other
conditions are more favorable for
moving, and opportunity will be
given for finding a suitable house in
Pipestone.

first of these was for violation of

ROW Of NINE HOUSES
FINDS READY MARKET
Sales Reported of New Dwell
ings in ENTHUSIASTICALLY
Houses in PetWOrth.

AS an illustration of the business of the
real estate market during the recent win
ter weather. the Sypret w. Hendrick
Company, inc, called attention yester-
day to the sale of an entire row of nine
houses in 10Th street northwest, between
kalorama road and Belmont road, and
one house in Belmont road between 18th
and 10Th streets northwest. There are
now remaining for sale in this block only
three houses. and they were ADVERTISED
for the first time three weeks ago. These
houses sold for $500 each. Harry Ward
man is the owner and builder
feature of interest in these houses is
the fact that the nearest approach to
Rock Greek Park from the city in the
near future will begin at 10Th street and
kalorama road: thence down 10Th street
to Belmont. and through Belmont to
Waterside drive. Nineteenth street is soon
to be extended two blocks north to Bilt-
more street. These two improvements,
of course, will greatly enhance the value
of these houses. The .Sypret w. Hen
drick Company, inc, have a number of
new houses ready for the spring market,
and in view of the winter activity, predict
that business will be unusually good this
spring. In Petworth they have twenty
houses at sth and Taylor streets, built by
Mr.. Wardman. These houses have all
modern conveniences, and large yards in
addition.
Mr.. Wardman is also building four new
houses in Sauls addition.
Twelve more houses al Sd and E streets
southeast will be ready for the spring
market. These houses will contain six
rooms each. and will supply a demand
for medium priced houses in this section
of the city.

LOW PRICES FOR OYSTERS.
A Number Of Loads Put Back Into

Five oyster-laden craft, each with sew
eral hundred bushels Of oysters aboard

an ample supply Of the bivalves to meet
all demands of those who will want
them on the half shell" tomorrow. In
all there were twelve oyster-.aden craft
at the wharf market this morning, and
the stock they have aboard Is all good
and fresh from the beds in the lower
Potomac and on Chesapeake bay. The
demand for oysters In the IN II contn
ues very light and prices are low. Good
oysters are selling wholesale as low as
A. cents a bushel. and from that the
price runs to Is and so cents a bushei

oyster market in the past two weeks has
been such as to give the Oystermen cases
of double dyed blues. The demand was
very light and the supply on hand heavy.
SO that prices went way down. Many of
the oyster runners did not open matches.
but after remaining here for a day or
two returned down the river to plant the
