LANDS STILL BOOMING.

The active demand for prairie
lands continues and instead of dimin-
ishing at this season of the year,
which is usual with all farming oper-
ations in the central and northern
states underway, the demand is in
creasing. Land seekers are here ev-
cry day looking at lands. They come
on the railroads and through the
country in cars. Some are buying
and some are prospecting, for the
first time seeing the prairie and the
stock and alfalfa and hogs here. A
number of sales have been made at
handsome figures. but in most in
stances they have been made under
contract, the place to be delivered at
the end of the year, and as a result
they have not been recorded yet and
their particulars are not public. All
sales have been made at an advanced
price and good land is easily bring
ing around a hundred dollars an
acre.
The activity in the demand for
lands has resulted in the establish
ment of two new real estate agencies
here. Mr.. Frank Hartung, who has
bought several tracts in the prairie,
has opened an office in the CONNER
cial Hotel, and Mr.. T. R. Langston
has opened an office in the old
Adams Shop stand on West Main
street, under the name of the Co
lumbus Realty Company. Mr.. l.. P.
Dickerson, of Bardstown, KY, has
become associated with Mr.. Hauser
in the real estate game, while num-
Der of citizens are taking fly into
the business.
Prospects are that the number of
will increase as the de-
mand for land is increasing.

BAD FIRE AT MOBILE.

MOBILE. Ala, May 21.-Proper-
ty damage of $75O,OOO, destruction
of nine and half city blocks of
stores and residences and rendering
of approximately 500 people home
less, was the result Of disastrous
fire which swept the old residential.
section of Mobile this afternoon.
One man was injured, but no one
has been able to identify the uncon-
scious person. The fire burned for
about four hours when wind and
other natural conditions came to the
relief of the fire fighters.
Tonight the Red Cross, Knights of
Columbus. citizens relief commit
tee and other organizations took
steps to bring relief to the needy
Hundreds of people lost clothing,
furniture and everything, many of
them barely escaping with their
children, so rapid was the advance
of the sheet of flames, which were
famed with strong northwest
wind.
Relief for the destitute people to-
night was produced almost instan-
taneously, Mobilians taking immedi-
ate steps in their behalf Hundreds
were provided with food within a
few hours after the fire was con-
trolled. Practically every fraternal
organization in Mobile opened their
homes to the people. The city ar
mory was also thrown open and
equipped with sleeping facilities. In
addition to these steps, the people
of Mobile in innumerable instances
opened their homes to the sufferers.
Everywhere there was evidence that
Mobile was fully able to take care
of its own people.
