With th death of Julia 8. Bryant in
Parts several weeks a some $25,100 worth
of Omaha property passes Into the hfinda
of new owners, heir to the relate of Mias
Ilryant. Ths Bryant eittate at one time
owned mora than $100,000 worth of Oniahu
property. Julia 8. Bryant was the youngest
daughter of William Culli-n Bryant anl
held a Urge part of her share of the estate
In Omaha property. Other heirs of the
great newspaper man and poet have bought
real estate mortgages of Omaha agents
for a number of years and not long ago
two largs mortgages werp sold to heirs of
the estats. But the property has gradually
ben sold at good prices and the old family
realised handsome profits on sinie of l ho
Investments made In Omaha. Agenla hand

President W. T. Graham of the Real
testate exchange is in correspondence with
Clinton R. Woodruff, secretary of the Na
tional Municipal leau. , with the hope of
j-rsLCgin to have Mr. Woodruff speak
juei dusujf February. TUo aecretary la to
speak In Kansas City on February , and
It Is possible that srrangements may be
made to have him vlHlt Omaha either on
his way to Kansas City or after his date
there. Mr. Woodruff la a speaker with a
national reputation and has been sctlve In
the work of the league for ome time. It
Is lit the hope of securing an address by
Rerretary Woodruff that rral estate dealers
and those active In the Improvement clubs
of Omaha will start a local branch of the
municipal league In Omaha. The local
branches have done much In various cities
of the Tntted Slates to Improve the physi
cal appearance of the city, securing legis
lation looking to restriction of bill boardB,
removal of unsightly architecture and
other work similar to that sought by the
Improvement clubs.
Work will be stalled ui the nest meeting
of the Omaha Real. Ktitate exchange on
the arranRements for the annual banquet
of the exchange. This Is usually held
early In February, but owing to the fact
that the exchange has been busy discussing
many Important subjects for the lat few
weeks no attempt hus been made to ar
range for the banquet. The annual dinner
and speechniaklng carnival will le
dally brilliant this year, as the real estate
dealers anticipate an unusually good year
and the general feeling has never txeii
better. The Interest In the exchange has
also reached a high point and t lie organiza
tion Is in active working condition.
Joseph I-eshy, a railroad contractor,
bought through Hastings aV Keyden, last
week, the home at 8014 Einmet street,
Kountse Plce, for W.3UO: With the sale
of the property to Mr. Leahy, Omaha real
estate dealers have sold more than $40.0ii0
worth of Omaha property to railroad con
tractors who have made their money In
the west during the last summer. Mr.
Leahy la the fifth contractor who has
bought rMldeoc firpsortg iMtWtt Ui last
five weeks, and announces the Intention of
making his, future homo In Omaha. The
Slabaugh flats were sold to a railroad con
tractor and his son for $10,000 as a home
and Investment.
Acreage traota will be quite popular dur
ing 1WJ8 from Jill indications and more coun
try homes aTe promised than during any
other year In the building of Omaha. Har
rison & Morton have' announced they will
open at once the 20-acre tract west of the
Field club golf links and extend Woolworth
avenue through the acreage tram. This
piece of real estate is near the highest
points of the city, and a view Is obtained
of Dundee, F-ast and West Ambler places,
the broad fields of the county farm and
te llanscom park district. Ground Is be
ing broken for ono or two new homes In
the place and It Is selling for $1,000 an
acre. W. T. Graham has more than twenty
at res in a fine trait northwest of the end
of the Ames avenue tar line, which he con
templated opening; later. George & Co.
have Fairacies, west of Dundee, and one
$JS.W residence Is being erected on the
tract. Florence will undoubtedly retain Its
popularity as a rural residence place, wh'le
Gould Diets has secured many acres of
abandoned" land on Thirty-eighth street
and Thirty-eighth avoiiue, which will be
graded and otherwise improved during the
summer.
"I believe private money will be easier
soon and there sre plenty of demands
for It." said 8. P. Bostwick of the firm
of Payne & Bostwick, In speaking of the
Inquiries being made for loans. "I Know of
a number of applications for f per cent
loans which are wanted on Omaha real
estate, and when It has been brought to
the attention of Individuals having capital
to loan on such securities, the loans have
been favorably considered. These loans
are usually made for three or five years.
lja4 piapr, Untf 4 ttoa4 FUU
the borrower to pay. $100 or multiples of
$100 on each' Interest date aftrr the first
year. This makes private money very
convenient and the outlook Is that many
such loans will be made. More inquiry
has been noticed tn the last week. Things
are looking better and while deals are not
being made very fast everything has the
appearance of health and strength In the
real -estate' business. I believe it will be
a year of small home building, the ten
dency being to build ,five and six-room
cottages. I do not look for many large and
expensive homes, but the numerous small
ones may cause rents to decline from IS
to 20 per cent. Rents have been a little
high for the cottage property and they
will adjust themselves as moro people
get their own homes."
Bertrand W. Page bought two lots on
Twenty-fifth avenue north of the fort of
Hastings A Heyden during the week
which he will Improve. Burt tfmlth of the
Missouri River Lumber company has
bought lots on Spencer street, tn Kountze
Place between Eighteenth and Nineteenth
streets, of the same firm, which he will
improve. P. C. Best bought the cottage at
Thirty-seventh and Dodge of the firm for
$1,800.
Harry Tukey, secretary of the Omaha
Real Estate exchange, Is spending a week
in Chicago. A. U Reed, accompanied by
Mrs. Reed, left during the week for Flor
ida coast 'points and Cuba, where' they
will spend several weeks.
A resolution will be Introduced at the
next meeting of the RtU Estate exchange
asking the exchange to endorse a plan
for the state of Nebraska to guarantee
bank deposits la Institutions chartered
by the state. Though no failure of a Ne
braska bank has been recorded during the
recent panic many; real estate men are of
the opinion that an additional feeling of
security would be added by. the state pro
yldiAg sV XuaA La sm way. which could he

GIGANTIC DIGGING AT. PANAMA
.it
Great Battlo Betweea Mil and JVa
tore Is Belast Fought to
a Finish.
It Is one thing to blast and shovel a mil
lion cubic yards out of Culebra, but It Is
another problem so to place the excavation
that It will be out of the way for all time
or so to place It that It will protect the
canal channel on' the lowlands of the
eastern portion of the waterway.
The Investigator at Culebra, as on other
portions of the ditch, Is Impressed at the
outset with the fact that the railroad is
the key to the situation boUi from an
engineering and a sanitary standpoint.
This canal cannot be constructed upon a
trunk sewer plan. All of us have Intelligent
friends who seem to .thtnjt that It is only
necessary to excavate and throw the dirt
along the banks of the waterway. But as
the tourist obtains his first view of the
cut at Empire he observes that ths rapid
ity with which the dirt trains are enabled
to move out Is the measure of the day's
achievement.
Through this region, in order tb assure
a prism of definite width, it has' been
found necessary . to Increase the proposed
width from time to time as one landslide
followed another, and while that Increases
the total amount of the excavation It
renders possible the placing of tracks one
above another t accommodate the ' dirt
trains.
During the month of July, 1S04. $1,000
cubic . yards of dirt were excavated at
Culebra cut; a year laterthe monthly exca
vation was upward of 10,000 cubic yards,
and during the month of July. 1908, 157.000
cubic yards were removed from the nine
mile atrip.
It Is worthy of not that on-Maroh H
1307. tb Xij( xcavUoa ww create thaa
the amount shoveled out during the first
month of July cited. The present monthly
excavation varies between 600,000 and 800,000
cubic yards, and with the passing of the
rainy season 1.000,000 cubic yards a month
will be the assured excavation record of
the Culebra army.
. But back of this record of monthly exca
vation and as a preliminary condition es
sential to the present efficiency of the
Culebra army is the story of the conquest
of the Isthmian Jungle. The canal cut
proper has been a constant source of
trouble to the health division. In many
Instances outlets for drainage are imprac
ticable and the water supply can only be
ditched In one pool. The progress of each
steam shovel leaves In its train new and
varied drainage problems.
This has necessitated constructing pools
by filling In, deepening ditches, confining
the water by rough stone walls, and ditch
ing the large side pools, thus turning all
the water Into the main ditch, where It
forms a swift running stream, unfavorable
to mosquito breeding. Drip barrels of oil
have been placed at points where the cur
rent slowed down, and this, combined
with the rapidity of the current, has re
duced mosquito breeding in the canal cut
to a minimum.
The malarial reports of the district physi
cian being tabulated, the number of cases
In the different camps Is compared with
that of the previous three weeks. If there
Is a decided Increase of malaria at any
camp the Inspector of that district Is tele
phoned to look for the point of Infection.
The, mosquito Inspector takes the list
and: goes over the whole ground in order
Lof greatest Increase, locating or confirm
ing the point of infection and reports upon
the measures best adapted for the removal
of the same. All the laborers of the dis
trict who can be spared from the daily
routine work are at once concentrated at
that point to make a swift and effective
end to the mosquito hrsedJLox rltirn Out
West.
