GOSSIP ABOUT
REAL ESTATE
Market Is Satisfactory to
Dealers at Present.

Though dealing in suburban
property this week has been
dull, transactions in the city have
reached good number, considering
the season OF the year. Land mer-
chants say that their market is ex-
ceedingly satisfactory. There seems
to be a desire on the part of many
of limited means to invest their
earnings OF the past prosperous
months in homes: that is, in buying
land either outright or on the in
stallment and then erecting their
domicile on mortgage, or in many
instances free from such incum-
brances.
There also is marked beginning
of an influx of new people from
other places, who want homes in a
city whose prosperity they can
share. .,
Among the transactions for the
week was the sale of lot on the
north side of Smith street, just
above Watson avenue, owned by
Carl C. Christensen, to William G.
Bedle, through Alpern and Com
pany.. Mr.. Bedle will erect a two
story building ON the lot, the lower
floor OF which will be a store for
himself, and the upper floor will be
divided into apartments. The same
company have also sold six lots at
the corner OF Smith street and Bert
rand street for Everett l.. Brown to
