The Union Pacific System has
also been first with practically
every device which makes for
security and comfort of travel
ers and for safety and expedi-
ton in the passage of freight.
Success has justified this
policy of efficiency, but the
full measure of success has
been attained only by the con-

people who live in the Union
Pacific country, and to them
this advertisement is directed
in a spirit of grateful apprecia-
ton. The Union Pacific Sys-
tenn is proud of its territory and
of the people who live in its
territory, and in turn is worthy
of the pride with which it is re-
garded by the people it serves

Real Estate and Building
NewS Here and Elsewhere
SLIGHT ACTIVITY MARKS
LOCAL REALTY FIELD

But slight activity marked the lat
ter part of the week in the real estate
line. A sale of two buildings in Tot
tenville made by Massopust Brothers
& Company and a Smith street sale
by Alpern & Company were the only
ones reported.
A saloon and dwelling, both frame
buildings, and located on James street
in Tottenville, were sold through Mas
sopust Brothers and Company from
Hans P. Larson to Stanislaw Schulz,
the consideration being in the neigh
borhood of $4,000.
The Smith street sale consisted of
property at 203 Smith street and was
purchased by Alpern & Company
from Jens p. Westergaard. The con-
sideration was not made public, but
the property, which has thirty five
feet frontage on Smith street and is
ninety feet deep, is known to be very
valuable. The property at the present
time is occupied by two buildings,
frame and brick, there being offices
located up stairs
Owing to the coming holidays lull
in the real estate line is to be expect
ed, but 1t is probable that the number
of sales will begin to increase soon
after the New Year.
