Some Important Transfers of Property During the Past Week, HIGH PRICED SURURBAX PROPERTY—THE FED- shat BUiLpwo AND A GLIMPSE INTO ITS BIs- TORY—MR. S. M. BRYAN'S PROPOSED NEW REST- DENCE--OTHEK MATTERS OF INTEREST. everal important sales of real estate have been made during the past week. Perhaps the Most notable was the 2 of the old Wads- worth place at public auction. This is one of the try places which was notable in the earher years of the city, when the suburbs Possessed attractions as a place of residence far superior to the city. It lies in the western boundary of the village of Mount Pleasant, and some years ago it was considered to be quite a distauce in the country. Some time ago the country place of Mr. S. P. Brown, which ad- Joins it on the east, was subdivided into build- ing lots as an addition to Mount Pleasant, and this way the march of mo ern improvements was bronght to the doors of the oid Wadsworth home. There was a great deal of interest manifested in the sale. and the Fepresentatives of several syndicates formed for the purchase of the property were in at- tendance. Careful investors valued the prop- erty at from 2120.000 to $140,000, and several arties were authorized to make bids with- these figures. The bidding was soon force beyond these figures by hundred-dollar_bids until it was finally knocked down for $156,300 to Mr. John A. Baker, of this city. As there are 71 acres in the place the price obtained was more than 2.000 per acre. which may be re- garded «x the highest price paid at auction for land similarly located. The growth of the city in this direction has been so rapid that it is be- lieved that the price obtained was fully war- ranted. It is the intention of the ¥ owner to sub-divide the property into building sites, The auctioneer. Mr. Wafer B. Williams, whose experience in real estate sales goes back toa period before the war. told a Stam reporter th he could not recall an auction sale where such a large amount of money had been paid for a single piece of property. He said that some years ago a whole square of land in the city would not have brought such a large sum. He thought that it showed how the value ofgproperty w ppreciating whi nd within the recollection of young men which Was not worth more than two or three hundred dollars Lond aere now is held at so many thou- sand dollars per acre.

Prospects for a Very Active Season in Lawn Tennis. The deadly enemy of the tennis player is the washerwoman. She is a person of delusions, the most prominent of which is that a man who plays tennis is constantly growing thinner. She never returns flannels to their lawfal owner without reducing their size. The consequence is that men who appear in their last year’s suits frequently have a shriveled appearance. Their trousers betray a tendency to go up to their knees and their shirts are what may be termed tight fits. Among the other preparations for the tennis season. which now may be said to be fairly opened, the problem of clothes is a perplexing one. White flannel still remains the most generally used material for tennis snits, although there are various patterns of colored flannel which are affected by the stylish lovers of the game. The knee breeches and stockings of assorted colors seem to have been discarded by the majority of players and the long. white trousers are considered to be the thing. The trousers are convenient for those who are not richly endowed by nature, but this, of course, is not the sole reason for their popu- larity. “Blazers,” as the gaily-colored tennis coats are termed. are as biazing as ever in color, and will no doubt be generally used this season. ’ TENNIS IN THE SOUTH. Tennis matters in the south are attracting a good deal of attention among those interested in the game throughout the north. ‘This city has become the center of southern te i terests, for here are located a majorits clubs composing the membership of the South- ern Lawn Tennis association. The president of the association, Mr. Chas. L. MeCawley, is one of the leading players of the city. \ Mr. MeCawiey, in talking with a Star reporter re cently, spoke of the ra a nees made bs tennis in this city and said that the prominent layers all through the couatry were greatly Interested in what was going on _ here. “The members of the national association are anxious,” he added. “that the southern asso- ciation should come into their organization. It would cost +50 a year. but I think that the ad- ventages afforded would justify the outla of our members would then be entitled to t in the tournaments which are held in rts of the country under the aus- ices of the national body.

THE STRENGTHENED WASHINGTON TEAM—A VIC- TORY OVER THE CUBAN GIANTS YESTERDAY— MANAGER MORRILL TAKES CHARGE TO-DAY— NOTES AND COMMENTS. Treuton’s contingent of colored athletes came very near taking a game from the Wasb- ington nine yesterday, the latter just pulling away from the “Cuban Giants” by the score of 3to2 There are folks who say and believe that the umpire’s aid was a powerful factor in | the Senators’ victory. The fielding was sharp and clean, and the batting was very light. Keefe and Ebright were the battery for the earlier part of the game, and Ferson and Clark during the last innings. Stovey and Charles Williams were the workers for the Giants. The work of the visitors was of as good an order as any that has been seen here this season, and, in fact, there were many specta- tors who said that yesterday's game was one of the finest ever played here. ‘The Giants played a game approximating to the | “cireus” variety, making phenomenal stops, great throws, and keeping the crowd in a con- tinual roar by their excessively funny coach- | ing, Each team made 4 hits and 2 errors. O'Brien played on third base and contributed ahome run'to the record of the Statesmen, and bringing in Myers, But eight innings were played, the darkness proving too much for the colored ball-twirlers.

Quite the reverse is the case about Vienna, and « succession of hills and a rolling country with lands ina high state of cultiva- tion, improved by many fine houses on the more commanding heights, and the further addition of pretty, modern cottages, especially attract the eye of either the sum- mer resident or the more substantial seeker for permanent homes in the way of farming,, or the many business enterprises. ‘This place already repre- d still holds out a large field for specu- industries, What was originally an ex- perimental “boom” in real estate is now con- verted into a healthful and substantial market for lands and houses, and as it stands to-day, the growing place of the country, so it looks as if Vienna is destined to become pre-eminently the ‘sentative town of Fairfax when it re This, b pason of its good lands and crops, its intelli- gent and thrif! 8s of people, the topograph: and its great advantage for dairy and tru farming and fruit growing already largely availed of. and the comparative nearness and accessibility of markets, Messrs, Salisbury and Hine are the chief owners { promoters of real estate interests, foul-line this summer.
