HE jtood Wtatber of the pMt week has bad its edi cts upou the real estate market, nn'fl the heart of the real estate agent has been womlerfullj gladdened. The prospect is brlglit f«r the dealers in urban and suburban property, and the rise _ iu values which rcecuily looked mythical

_ _ appears to have rone foundation, in fact. The l>uildi»K .associations are loaning much money this spring, for more people than usual seciu «lctermined to build themselves home*. Homes ran not be built without ground to build on, and the owners of plats are begin-

A few Indianapolis men have seen this end, dele uni bed n> get some of e good thing while it we# to be had, are firmly established tn the gas belt and are said to he making money. The Albany Laud Company, which was organized by Indianapolis men, with a capital stock o^ fJJO.flUf}, has purchased twelve hundred acres Of land within and surrounding Albany, nnd gas leases have been secured upon a section of country ten miles square. Another company has purchased 900 acres nt Ingalls, a tpwn on the Big Four; ll»0 acres of tnis land has been platted. The company has already received an order for a station to cost $3,500 and work on it will begin next week. Another company is at Anderson, where sixty acres of land has been purchased by ladiauapoli# men and

platted.

Land is still a staple Investment and the demand for homes was never greater than at present; money appears to be plentiful and prices ruling strong, so every indication points to a successful season for the dealer

in real estate.

CAIRO, February 15.—We reached Alexandria, a city of about 200,000 inhabitants, last Thursday about 2 o’clock iu the afternoon. After taking a drive we went to the station to take the tram fur Cairo. Such a time getting tofT the steamer, securing our luggage, and such a mob of Arabs all talking at once, was certainty a novel experi-

ence.

There is very little of ancient origin to see now, Pompeii's pillar being abont jthe only relic left. It is a red granite shaft, sev-enty-three feet high and eight feet in diameter, resting upon A plain base, the whole nearly one hundred feet high. . The obelisk in Central Park, New York, stood near this pillar, having been removed from Helioplis, where it was supposed to have been tiuilt by Pharoab in Joseph's time. The Catacombs, a short distance out, were full of interest. , , One can hardly realize that this city could have had at one time 600,000 inhabitants, beautiful broad streets, adorned with parks, statuary, fountains and flowers—mistress, as it were, of the traffic of the world. It. will be remembered as the home of Cleopatra, one of the most cultured and beautiful Women of ancient times, but heartless

and cruel as well.

FROM ALEXANDRIA TO CAIRO.

Our trip from‘Alexandria to Cairo I enjoyed very much. The cars are decidedly English in construction. Our party, consisting of nine, had au apartment to itself. We were four hours making the trip of 150 miles. Shepherd’s Hotel, where we are staying, is a beautiful place, more like an American hotel than the Grand Hotel of Naples. A wide veranda runs the whole length of the house. There are palms in | abundance and tables and chairs, and one can lunch out there any time one vyishes. : it is pleasant to watch the people there i while reading or writing letters. The 1 house is full of guests, mostly English. The weather is clear and dry, the sun

| bright and warm, but we Ings and nights. It is hard

it has been cold iu the “States,” as it is like

April or May here.!

When I look around the hotel I can not realize that I am so far away from hntmv but if I step outside I at ouee feel myself in

a strange land.

IN THE STREETS OF CAIRO. , Cairo, a city of over 400,000 inhabitants, is a beautiful place. It is the largest in Africa, and I doubt if there is another like it anywhere. All phases of life may be seen at once. “Ham, Shem and J&pheth j buy and sell in her markets.” One never | tires of watching the kaleidoscopic scenes— such a mingling of Civilizations and relig- ; ions. Christian, Pagan and Mohammedan. I Friday morning we started out in carriages ! to see the city. First, We drove to the citadel, a fortification built by Salad ip in | 1166 and now occupied By the English J troops. It is about one hundred feet above the city and affords a beautiful view of the | town and surrounding country. We next ] S visited two mosques. The one near the | citadel, built by Mchemet Ali, has pure | alabaster floors, covered with the richest of : oriental rugs. The visitor is not permitted | to enter without sandals. Arabs tied them !

on for ns.

The Mosqne Sultan Hasson, or Superb Mosque, is said to be the finest specimen - of Arabian architecture iu the world. Joseph’s well, near by, cut out of the solid rock (so ! said our guide), commemorates the casting into the pit of Joseph by his brethren. ! Rollin, in his ancient history, called it one

of the curiosities of Egypt. - A VISIT TO THIS PYRAMIDS.

We then drove through the Arab quarters, and such scenes! The women have their faces entirely veiled, except the eyes.

The lower class dress all in black, and hundreds of them may be seen on the streets at any time. The higher class wear only

white, but are never seen except in carriages, which always have two runners

ahead, dressed in white with red turbans,

besides a coachman and a footman. Friday afternoon we visited the howling dervishes, who observe Friday by a peculiar mode of worship. The next day we

went to the pyramids, a drive of an hour

and a half from here. I felt somewhat disappointed, I must confess, as many others seemed to be. One toads so much of these wonders in art and nature, and forms pictures of them in one’s mind which differ trora the realities. But I thought of the

Arriving at Washington be hired a cab. went to the Arlington and took quarters that oust him per clay. FOR APPEARANCE’S HAKE. That evening one of the Inuianians who was lounging at the hotel, but not eating or sleeping there, asked the young man how, he could afford to stop at the hotel. “The fact ia I can't affi.d it,” said the young man, “but I have got to do it for effect. Gresham and Carlisle and all these big fellows notice these thing. They see me here.” The young man spent money freely for two days On the evening of 'the third day it was reported that he bad been robbed of $S0. 'The storv w:is printed m the Washington papers and telegraphed back to Indianapolis. It is said that the young man started the story himself. At any rate the reportenalded the youngoffieeeeeker to borrow sufficient money to enable him to live at the Arlington for several days longer. It is said that the Congressman who had telegraphed him to stay at home was induced to lend him $50. WAYS AND MEANS. But at the end of the week the young man was out of money again, and he began to telegraph to his father for funds. Three days passed, dnd no money haying arrived, he wired his father that he had been appointed to the office which he is seeking, and asked fior a remittance. UAftcr twelVe hours of waiting the following word was received from the father: “Congratulations.” No money accompanied the congratulations. The young man is still in- Washington, but the understanding is that he is not stayi ng at the Arlington now. It is said that he has succeeded in getting together a lot of recommendations unequaled by any taken to Washington by an Indianian this spring, and the men who have recently returned from the capital say they would not be surprised if he succeeds in his bold effort to get a Federal position.

In the shape of hats, low crowns and brims widening out from the back, at which point they are generally narrow, predominate. The square crown is most frequent, although the oval crown is still in vogue, and eccentric crowns nop - and then appear. The brim of the untrimmed models is most frequently flat, while the style is varied by that pressed in a ridge or point in front, and of whatever character is subject to adjustment by the milliner. Many of the most stylish hats are fashioned of the plateaux or pbrin dies that have come out, and for their shapeliness are wholly dependent upon the milliner’s fancy.
