GOOD DEMAHD FOB CITY LOTS Real Hetate Eirsssse Will l'ae Novel Scheme 9 Advrrtlae Importance of Omaha, la Commercial World. When Thomas Itrennan sold two pieces of city property to Omaha people, which belonged to the National Ufa Insurance company of Vermont, during the past week, the company was left the owner of but one piece of Omaha property out of more than 100 which It owned In the city a . few years ago. The property sold was the. residence at 2613 Far nam street. It was sold to Daniel Caeh for W.500, Abraham Mencher bought the lots east of the corner, of Sixteenth and Leaven wortn street on which the old "Hlgglns" barn has stood for a number of years, and paid SS.0U0 fur It. The redemption of Otnaha values is shown In the sales of the life insurance company. During the "hard times" eleven yeais ago the company was compelled to furecloBe mortgages by the wholesale, as It has always been a heavy owner of Omaha city mortgages and Nebraska farm mortgages. Two years ago Mr. Brennaa had luu oity properties Usted which the company had taken. Not duelrlng to hold the property, the company offered It for sale, snd It has been sold at good prices. Invariably bringing ampunla sufficient to satisfy all claims and give the holders of the mortgages Interest on the money for the full length of time since the mort gages fell due, George k Company made- the largest sale of the week when the deal was closed by which J. 11. Millard, Mra W. B. MUlurd, and Arthur R. Keeline secure half a block of unimproved olty lots at Thirty ninth and Davenport streets. As an nounced In The Buo some time ago Mr. Millard lias secured the lots 100x156 feet at the south-east corner of Thirty-ninth and Davenport streets and expects to build a home on them. Mr. Millard paid Hum for the lota ' Mra. W. B. Millard has scoured lots 17x166 feet on the same block, but at the eaat end, paying S,500 for tl -.era. The kit secured by Mr. Keeline la between the other lots ar.d gives hliu. a 140 fool frontages as he owned one lot In tl.e block. Mr, Keeline paid &3U0 for the strip he secured. The property will be the site of three flue residences In Uie near future, a Inquiries are coming In thick and ' fast st the reel estate offices for homes and city lots. This was the experience at the office of the Payne Investment company, where half a duaen loqulrers bought prop erty eince last week. Graham K, Butler bought a lot at Thirty-sixth and fishier for M; Buill Franta bought a lot at Forty-second and Meredith for IUW; Charles II. Carter a lot at Thirty-eighth and California! John Uickvr a lot at Tweuty -eighth and Hickory for 7W; John Matsa bought two lots at Forty-ninth and Blondo for H'XX The O'Keefe real estate company has sold a lot In Avondale park, on Webster street, tetween Twenty-seventh and Twenty-eighth streets, to George W. Moore for $6G0. Mr. Moore will build a home' costing I3.B0O to H at once. Payne 4k Bostwick have Just received orders from an eastern owner to aell Omaha lots in Wilcox First and Second additions at once, as this Is said to be the time to sell. The Arm have placed some twenty lots In the additions named on the market. In the advertising of Omaha, the real estate exchange Is trying to take the lead for lHOB, and at present la doing more than the Commercial Club. Besides sending en closures to correspondents, telling of Omaha, the real estate dealers have had a quarter of a million envelopes printed showing the "best view of Omaha taken In years" and on the reverse side, the enve- llppe gives the following Information about "Omaha la the targeetr butter market In the world. - "It has the most extensive smelting plant la the world. "It stands, third as a corn market, fourth as an oats market, sixth as a wheat market, second as a sheep market,' third as a hog market, third -as a cattle market and will have a population of J0.000 In 110." Just nowv Secretary Harry Tukey la con- . sideling a new style of envelope. A half tone picture of the business district of Omaha, made In the shape of the state of Nebraska, will be used. A "blight spot on the map" will indlcale the location of Omaha, and around the state may be scon the names of the great states which help to make Omaha "the Market town," mar and could have secured more If the com pany would give a bond for the com pletion of the building. But the dealers are to sell 11, 000 of the second mortgage bonds, and signified their willingness to do more if necessary. NO RECEIVER FOR OMAHA FIRM Byron Inglehart Appointed for P. P. Maat A Co. of Sprlag- fleld, O. . The receivership appointed of Byron Inglehart made upon the application of Samuel T. Nickelson and Thomas F. Low In their suit against P. P. Mast & Co., of Springfield. O., pertains only to such prop erty of the P. P. Mast company that may come into Mr. Iaglehart S hands as the transfer agent of the Most company In Ne braska. It has no bearing whatever upon the Omaha Implement and Transfer company of Omaha This company is merely the transfer agent for the Mast company as It Is for other Implement ' companies. The P. P. Mast company went into the hands of receiver February-'il, upon the application of Nickelson and Low, the re ceivers appointed being Harold D.Malie and Samuel F. McQrew. Ancillary action has beer, taken In the case In Nebraska as against the Mast company and Byron Ingle hart Is named as one ofthe receivers. He gave his bond Saturday morning in the sum of I5.UU0. Similar uctlon Is to be taken In the premises regarding the P. P. Most com pany In the appointment of a receiver for such of its property as may be located at Kansas City. Mr. Inglehart said; "The impression might be obtained that the Omaha Implement and Transfer com pany has been Included In the receivership which is eironeou. The Omaha Implement and Transfer company has nothing to do OPEN WINTER-FOR BUILDERS Operations This Year Exceed Those of .Same Time Last Year.

The new plan Is said to be clever and attractive liy President W. T. Graham and others who have seen the drawing. Without a moment's hesitation the tps! estate dealers agreed to appoint a com mittee to sell $1.0u0 worth of the second mortgage auditorium bonds, when Presi dent Nash told the members of the ex change that he "needed the H.OOu," as 17,0110 yet remained to be sold In older to complete the building. Mr. Nash startled the real estate dealers by telling them that he looked over the hooks of the compel. y In a hurry before corning to the meeting And discovered that the real es tate dealers of the city had contributed just IMS. to the auditorium fund, and he waa eure they wanted to do better than that. Hutniost of the real estate dealers are opposed to the "bond deala" aa they term them. They are In favor of paying off thebonda and securing a straight 6 per cent loan on the property from soma eas tern Insurance company. The first mort gage la for 150.000. The second mortgage la for UU.0U0. The lots alone are worth at any-time b0.000.

One agent had a loan placed (or Sjo.uw at oue time, so be eaya. transfer agent.

OMAHA STILL IN FRONT RANK t oat inane Ahead of Ita Sister Cltlea In (he Matter of Bank . Clearings, Omaha sgaln forced the eyes of the finan cial world to turn In this direction by l,i4 splendid allowing lta banks made in tha clearings ' record which Is telegraphed all over the country for the week ending February 1J. or Thursday of each week. Only two of the cities of the top notch are registered as showing a gain In bank clear ings. Theee are Omaha with a pain of 17 per cent over the corresponding week of last year and Ksnsas City with a gain of 6 1 per cent. These of all the cities which have a clearance record of over !5.0Qu,0u0 on the week were able to register on rhe right side of the ledger. Spokane then shows a gain and the next city to show a gain is Syracuse, N. T.. with about 12.000.000 on the week and the only city In that class to show a gain. The heavy movements of live stock has helped the Omaha record. More open weather during the last week has set the home builders going sgaln at renewed speed. Following an exception ally mild winter It seems there is to be an unusually early spring. A tslt to the ' offices of architects, contractors, real es tate agents and builders Is sll that Is needed to show the great volume of building that Is to be done In. Omaha dur ing the season which is Just opening. A visit to the office of the city bulld,tng in spector and an Inspection of the books In that office confirms the seeker after know ledge In the belief that the season of 1906 will be an extremely active one In building In Omaha. Up to date more building permits have been taken out this year than up to the same date last year and the aggregate value of the houses which permission is given to erect Is greater than for the corresponding period last year. And this, top, In spite of the fact that 1907 was a record breaker and 1S la handicapped by several factors. Many Omaha carpenters and other skilled workmen who own their homes have made use of the little breathing spell afforded by cold weather to make Im provements In their own homes. Several have enlarged and remodeled their homes while others have pulled down the old house completely and erected a new one In Ita place. Every little bit helps at s time When work Is as plentiful for skilled laborer of the building trade as at present.' throughout only two months before and had been occupied by a very careful family. I told the women It was newly papered. But the friend skirmished around until she found two or three tacks which we had overlooked In the parlor wall. It was all up then. The prospective tenant sold she didn't like yellow anyway and unless we papered the whole apartment she would not consider It. Her references were very fine and so we came to It but really It was a shame to turn workmen into that place." "I believe nine out of every ten people who start out to build a house begin at the wrong end of the Job," said an Omaha architect. "I mean that they see In their mind's eye the outside appearance. They see how they want the house to look to people who pass It on the sfreet. And they design a house of this slse and shape snd then proceed to apportion the rooms within so as to suit the shape of the house. Now this is placing the cart before the horse. The right way to plan a house la to determine what you want Inside and let the outside take care of Itself, or at any rate, mould the outside to suit the Inside arrangements." the Auditorium and the general public Is in vited. The state convention will open In the afternoon and Its sessions will likewise bo public. VICTORY FORJHE EXECUTORS Decision of Court Is thnt Fees 'Will Be Included In the Final - s Decree. The order allowing the fee '"of $4fi,000 to Judge W. D. McHugh and IT.i.OOO to the executors of the Crelghton estate will be Included In the decree of. final diHtrlbutlon df the estate, according to a decision an nounced by County Judge Leslie Saturday morning. The decision Is a victory for tlte execu tors, who contended forNa single decree. The - attorneys for the unnamed heirs wanted the order allowing the attorney and executors' fees entered in a s separate decree on the ground it would not tie up the distribution of the ' wholeestate If separate decrees Were entered. In the argument Inst v.'ek T. J. Mahnney created a sensation by declaring th pur pose of the attorneys was to put the decree In such a shape that they could "dicker" with the executors to Induce them not to appeal from the decision of Judge Ijeslle holding the working girls' ' home bequest Invalid. The decree' was not signed Suturday, but by agreement further proceedings In tha : case were postponed until Monday after noon at -8 o'clock, when It Is hoped all the legal formalities attending the closing up of the case can be gone through with.

So we have discontinued the 'practice of papering arid cleaning up after the tenant 'moves out and perform that operation only after the place haa been rented to a new tenant.
