of Omaha. He was the architect of the two
finest Retail Buildings In the city, the
Hoagland Block and the Brandeis Build
ing; the two magnificent School Houses,
the Omaha High School and the South
Omaha High School; the two modern Hos
pitals, the Wise Memorial and the Clarkson
Memorial HOBpital, the latter now being up
to the second story; the fine warehouses of
Parlin, Orendorff & Martin Co., the Car
penter Paper company and the Wright &
Wllhelmy Co. Hp was supervising archi
tect of the New Postoffice and hopes to be
able to complete the Auditorium Building
of which he was architect and which he
says will make one of the handsomest build
ings in the west when finished.
Mr. Latenser has been especially con
gratulated on the appearance of the Hotel
Loyal and the stores In particular, the
signs over the show windows being hla own
Individual work, and being a unique and
attractive addition to North 16th street.

Few weeks In the past year have shown
Tetter activity In real estate, both busl
neaa and residence property moving freely
and tha transfer (or the week probably
reached more than tJOO.000 though soma
of tha larger deals were reported only with
tha usual consideration II. The largest
deal was the sale of the old D. M. Steele
Co. building at Twelfth and Jones street
to la. I tens Sons of Clinton, la., for a
cracker factory. The cracker manufac
turers paid f&O.OOO cash for the property
and secured an excellent location as well
as a bargain In the opinion of real estate
dealers. Tba building Is occupied by the
Creamery Ffeckage Manufacturing com
pany, which will eecur other quarters as
soon as possible.

In the agunts selling seventy lots during
me ween. This is probably the greatest
number of lots Sold bv ruin firm In w..u
since the opening of South Omaha. Ben
son, Dundee and other suburb have had
a gradual growth and were built. In a
haphazard way and' lots were sold a
few at a time, but In RalHton there Is to
be a public auction In May and business
men who invest In real estate are secur
ing lots before the auction, which will
likely be a spectacular one.
"Buy In (f for Investment" has corns to
mean that those who put money into
property, , do so simply to get the Inter
est which good city proiierty promises to
pay. There are few who say they buy
for a rise, and agents of Omaha frown
on the practice known as "speculation."
But buying a piece of property with a
view to selling again at a better figure la
common, and while It cannot be said that
such buying Is for "investment," it is
still considered about as straight a wsy
of making money as there Is In the world.
Fortunes have been made buying real es
tate and selling in a short time at better
prlcea and those who buy csnnot be said
to be gamblers In r.-al estate. It Is not
so much a matter of chunre as of good
Judgment of one man knowing more than
others. Usually those who make by such
displays .-of good judgment also spend
much energy and some money developing
surrounding; Itjj tU Jhft ftfclaUiluthood
or town. In the opinion of many Omaha
real estate dealers buying for "specu
lation" Is not quite as legitimate as buy
ing for ' investment" but none of them
are refusing to sell property to those who
have the money or discouraging buying
because of the motive of the buyers.
Moving season is now on In earnest and
real estate dealers have added help in the
rental departments. Houses are not hard
to find. There are more empty than dur
ing any spring In many years, and It Is not
a sign that people are leaving Omaha
either, but that they are building their
own homes. Many flats are vacant, and
every day several more are added to the
list. There is no particular district where
houses are empty. They are vacant In all
parts of the city. It Is difficult to rent
anything but the most desirable property,
as the number of first-class modern homes
and flats makes It Just as cheap to secure
the best as something only in fair. condi
tion. Within a few weeka the new Ma
jestic apartments on Sherman avenue will
be opened. A score of other new modern
flats, with two or four apartments, will
also be completed before May 1. All of
these will be attractive to homeseekers
and will take families from other homes
less desirable. There are a Urge number
of big houses vacant, but because of the
number rents have not gone down a dollar.
The same rentals are being secured which
were asked a year ago.
Optratei la suburban property, es-
pecially at Florence, say that more bunga
lows will be built In Omaha the coming
summer than ever before, and the number
by fall will be doubled. There are few
bungalows down town, but there is an in
clination to buy tracts of four or five
acres and build small houses. To do this
It is necessary .to choose nelifhborhooils
where there Is no arbitrary rule against
small houses, and the result Is that prop
erty well out will sell better than las
year.
