- EAL ESTATE men are looking for
IL big business this fall. C. NJ.
Newman reflects the sentiment Of
the majority of the dealers in his op-
timistic view of the outlook. He be-
1ieves the Mexican war drew so much
attention to this section that business
is going to be better than ever. Agents
in general have already felt a large
increase IN the inquiry for lands ana
city property. They are preparing for
a big rush in the fan and look for
big demand for Mexican lands as well
as valley and city property. It is the
general belief among real estate men
that the coming fall viii be among the
best seasons in the history Of the city.
Values have al held well during the
Mexican trouble and many good sales
have taken place at advanced prices.
The Outlook Splendid.
Mr.. Newman said: THE lower valley
has never looked better In the last 20
years than it does right now. not only
an abundance Of water. but because
hundreds OF acres additional have been
newly cleared off and are now In sue
cessful cultivation.
"The fruit and grape crop wiz by lar
surpsss any other this year, and they
are much further advanced than usual
for this time Of the year, which is
somewhat due 60 the early rains, but
further due TO the scientific methods
OF farming and the great fertility Of
the soil. look for a great many farm
ers to settle in the valley this summer.
because the valley Is IN itne shape to
show whet It can produce; and those
who come now-and this is the time
of the year when they 40 come-win
likely settle.

ner at Second avenue and Seven
teenth street was probably the scene
of a greater number of incidents OF
this kind than any other corner in
town. The wind was so variable that
once a hat got away it was whipped this
way and that and the owner, ii he

One OF the stationary signs above

Rock Island road city ticket office at
Nineteenth street and Second avenue
was dislodged shortly after noon to-
day by the wind, and fell to the walk.
Luckily, there was no one near the
place at the time. II is strange that
greater havoc has not been played
throughout the day with the large
swinging electrical, display signs
which hang out from the buildings
and over the sidewalks. The creaking
of the signs kept pedestrians on a
cautious lookout throughout the day.
