FIRST NATIONAL SELLS,
BUILDING NOW OCCUPIED

About the first really big deal in real
estate closed this month, and therefore
this year, is the sale OF the First National
Bank building. which has just been bought
by Albert r. Cook, who controls heavy
real estate interests in Chicago.
The price was $4,000. and the bank
fixtures and vault went with the sale, as
the First National bank will get an en-
tirely new set OF fixtures when It's new
building at Sixteenth and Farnam is com
pleted.
The fact that the fixtures and vault
we're purchased by Mr.. Cook with the
old bank building at Thirteenth and Far
nam streets. has set up some conjecture
among business men in the city as to
whether another bank Is contemplating
using that location. At least three new
banks for Omaha are in prospect. and for
two of them the work OF selling stock
has been in progress for some time. Two
OF them have secured tentative locations,
while the third, which. II Il is pushed at
all. Is to be a national bank, is stil cast
ing about for a location.
The old Omaha National Bank building
was sold on the same day.

Omaha Real Estate
Men to Go to New
Orleans Convention

Thus far about twenty real estate
dealers of Omaha are planning to go 10
New Orleans to attend the convention
OF the National Association OF Real Es-
tate Exchanges which is TO be I'm session
there March q to 81. The meeting is ex-
peeted TO be the biggest ever held by the
national body.
Between 2OO0 and 5000 real estate deal
ers are expected at the meeting.
over 100 cities have local boards affil-
lated with the national association. The
latter was formed only eight years ago,
when representatives from dozen cities
started the movement. Since then II has
spread all over this country and through
most OF Canada. The association was the
natural outcome OF formation OF local
boards which began as far back as
twenty-five years ago. These boards
proved so clearly the value OF co-opera-
ton and an ethical understanding among
real estate men that the need OF a
great central body. clearing house for
ideas, and an agency for the standard
ization OF the business was clearly dem
onstrated.

Russ Torpedo Boats
Sink Turkish Ships

PETRoGRAD (via London). Jan. a..
Russian torpedo boats in the Black Sea-
It was announced today. have sunk two
Turkish ships loaded with war supplies.
The crews were made prisoners
The military authorities attach great
importance to the defeat OF the center OF
the Turkish army along a sixty-mile
front between Lake Tortum and the
Celia river and Shariansou. with the re-
sultant capture of the Notifications of
Keupri Keui. which were defended by
nearly an army corps.
The importance OF Keupri Keui is due
to the fact that it is the last natural
