' HEALTHY INCREASE OVER PRECEDING WEEK SATISFACTORY IN " MANY'OTHER CITIES Seattle Has Brick Paved Street Still in Excellent Condition After Bet lng Used for Fifteen Years Ta- oma' Also Uses Brick. The munloipal authorities of. Port land are making another- experiment p a small way with vitrified bricks ai , paving material. This time they are elng used to lay the gutters In, Oak treet, between Second and Third treets. The same bricks were used hat full by the United Railways corn- any in paving between ""the rails in ront of the City library on Its Stark treet line, and for the same nurpose n Flanders street, between Third and UU1 ut. Vitrified bricks ere comlna- Into more eneral use throughout the country as paving material, Tne first exoert- Ijents of the kind made 20 to 25 years mju wore aimost ail xauures. xni rlcK paving that was laid in Port- hnd six or eight years ago, was al- llOBt without value. The denlorahle onditlon of the brick pavement on tark street, between Third and Sixth treets; and on First street, from Fine Burnslde streets, has long been a ivlc disgrace to the cltv. Th. bricks lid on these streets were soft and aon crumbled and rotted away, with le result that within three or four ears after they were put down, the treets were full of chuckholes and ell nigh Impassable, and. are now fit be classed as nubile nuisances. A few blocks of brick pavement In Fort- na, nave, nowever, stood the test of wavy traffic falrlv well. The hlnok nn Washington street between First and lecond; that on Madison street., and a port distance of Kussell street are radically uninjured. Successful Elsewhere. It Is Interesting to know that in other ftclfic coast cities vitrified lirluk nave. tent has been thoroughly tested and ronounced a complete success. Take pr instance. Seattle, with the umn limatio conditions that prevail here. trifled brick pavement has been giv li a thorough test and is said to have et tne requirements of the city en neer's department. The entire down. iwn district, of Seattle Is paved with brick that is made near that citv. f rae of this pavement has been down r IS years and according to a re- sni report or tne city engineer shows very small amount of wear. It herefore seems improbable that cll atlc conditions should destroy the hefulness of brick pavements in Port- na, ana it is Bare to infer that the reets of this city have never beun lived with a real vitrified brick as was ipposea, except on tne few blocks here the bricks have stood the test time and use. Satisfaction in Seattle. First and' Second avenues in Seat- both carry heavier traffia than y street in anv cltv In the nfnta at aahlngton. and very much Ilka tha afflc and teaming seen on Front and rst streets in the city of Portland, formation from the cltv eniri neer'a flee in Seattle is to the effect that e First avenue brick pavement wna id nearly 16 years ago, has had little no repairs, has been taken up In aces for water and sas pipes, relaying reet car tracks and various other unlclpal purposes, and Is still good r. 16 years more. Pacific avenue In Tacoma, a portion 1 I Its 1 W. L Morgan's New Apartment House, Madison and Park Streets. Deals Nearly All Under $10,000 Ex- cept One Unconfirmed Sale of Acreage Tract Residence and . Dwelling Property In Demand. Real estate sales of the past week, while more numerous and involving a much larger sum of money than those of the week before, were chiefly con fined to small transactions, no deal being reported where the consideration ex ceeded $10,000 except the acreage tract said to have been taken over by the Swift people, which lacks confirmation. Transfers filed for record during the week averaged daily between 150,000 and 160,000, bringing the total for the weak to nearly $400,000. But one transaction in the high- priced business district was reported during the week, ulthough a well posted Stark street broker is responsi ble for the statement that he had about concluded the sale of three sites In the business district which would bo an nounced In a few days. The same agent said that he knew of other transactions In business Droeerty which were woll along toward conclusion, but which could not be made public at this time. One X,arge Sale. The ond large sale referred to Is the quarter block at the southeast corner of of which Is paved with brick, Is an other evidence of the adaptability of a real vltrllied brick as a paving ma terlal for a much-traveled street. Cleveland. Ohio, with Its extremes of heat and cold, has laid 82 miles of vitrified brick pavement In the past three years. 6t. j.ouls. durlnir the same period yud 4t miles of brick pavement, and Columbus, Ohio, has laid nearly 2,000,000 square yards of this pave ment. The experience of these cities with this character of pavement makes it a rair question as 10 wnciner viirmea brick has ever had a fair test as a pavement on the streets of Portland. FINE RESIDENCE SITE NOW iff M HANDS Among the valuable pieces of resi dence property that changed hands In the last day or two. Is the 75 by 100 reet at the northeast corner or Twenty third and Norjlirup streets, which was purchased by Joseph Glicksman from Patrick Gallagher for 18,000.

An elderly Jewish lady of means, 2?,JKrandmotner of devoted grand-enlldr.-n, modestly mentioned to, one or two discreet friends that If she could find a man of her own age, B0, who was respectable and of a religious turn of mind she would be glad to take him for better or for worse. Before long one of the discreet friends told her that he had discovered a suitable match L0,,,. r ln the Peon of one Lazarus Miililps, and Laiarus was brought to ' the grandmother's house to be looked upon with a view of matrimony. . , He scored heavily, did Lazarus, and arter a Tew more meetings the good lady with a directness which does her credit in this artificial age, took his hand, saying: "l know what you hava corno for." Then, resolved to go the . whole length, she kissed him, murmur lng, "Mow wa are engaged." Lazarus seems to have been a bit bowled over by this, but braced up " upon hearing that his generous be- ' trothed had decided to deed her house , to him and to settle $2,500 a year upon him for ...e the day after their, mar riage. Now Indeed did Lazarus see ahead of , him an easy and comfortable old age. Presents were exchanged.

When he succeeded ' In proving that he had reached tha requisite 0 she said a physician had told her that her health was ln a pre carious condition and that she must abjure marriage. Then as a final blow she offered to draw him a check for $176 If he would release her from their engagement Then did Lazarus rise in his wrath and berate her Infidelity ln words of flame. He did more, he sued her for breach of promise and demanded $2,600 for dam ages done his wounded affections. The lady appeared at the trial sup ported by the 10 triumphant conspira tors, and lonely Jazarus statea nis case with much emotion. Now, the result of breach of promise cases in England in which a woman sues for damages is always a foregone conclusion. ' The wounded heart of the lady Is always appeased by a monetary settlement. Men seldom sue, ana per haps that is the reason why Judge and. Jury turned to Lazarus ln his affliction. 1 He did not, of course, get all he de manded, for besides the $2,500 he had also a list of prices paid for presents anu an account of what he had paid for a trousseau which he would never . have purchased had he not supposed he was to be the husband of a rich woman. No, he didn't get all He demanded; In fact, he got only $250. GourV Sees Joke.

" When the discreet friend gave evi dence and admitted that he was to have had a check for his services ln secur ing an eligible husband, but that It never materialized, the grandmother did not change color and bore unflinchingly- the look of reproach Lazarus cast upon her for this perfjdy to his friend as well ' as to himself.
