CAPITAL REAL ESTATE. HOW PUBLIC MEN AND WOMEN D3AL IN IT. Mrs. Patten’s Fortunate Investments —An Old Cemetery Yields $ 100,000 How President Cleveland’s Real Estate Increased in Value Mr. Whitney Clears $90,000-A Balloon Ready to Burst. Prom the. New York Sun. Washington, Nov. 23.—Mrs. Augusta Patten, the widow of the Cal fomia million aire and mother-in-law of Representative Glover, of St. Louis, has just bought s:iO,- 000 worth of real estate from Gardiner Hub bard. She has now more tlian $300,000 in vested in Washington property, and has purchased more than SOO,OOO worth this year. She has made $30,000 off a piece of land which she has bought near the Presi dent’s country home, and the ground on which her big mansion is located has doubled in value since she purchased it. Her Wash ington house cost her nearly SIOO,OOO to build, and she is one of the few women who make living in Washington pay. Her in vestments call attention to those of other women. Mrs. Gen. Albert Meyer bought land on Washington Heights a few months ago which is now worth $20,000 more than she paid for it, and Mrs. Senator. Sherman owns a number of lots on Columbia Heights, She keeps her property separate from the Senator’s, and Senator Sherman, in speak ing of it, always refers to it as Mrs. Sher man’s land. Mrs. Logan’s homo “Calumet Place,” is worth at least twice what it cost the General,-and Mrs. Justice Woods has bought a lot in the same locality. Secreta ry Kvarts has just rented a house, which is the property of Mrs. Gen. Hazen, who is, you know, the sister of John McLean pro prietor of tho Cincinnati Enquirer. The McLeans are largely interested in Washington real estate, and within the past five years they have bought property here to tho amount of nearly a million dollars. John McLean has made at least $300,000 Within the past six years in Washington, and he made SIOO,OOO out of the cemetery near the house of Senator Blaine. He paid about $51,000 for it, and it would bring $150,000 to-day under the auctioneer’s ham mer. Washington McLean bought, not long ago, for $33,000 a piece of property the ground of which alone is now worth $75,000, and during the past summer John McLean has been making strenuous efforts to buy the colored church facing McPher son square. He offered $50,000 for it and it was refused. Washington McLean paid, about $60,000, a year or so ago, for the Sickles mansion, where Gen. Sickles was living when ho shot Philip Barton Key. Adjoining Gen. Beale’s home is the house which Congressman Scott, of Pennsylvania, bought for $50,000 last week. All of these houses are on Lafayette Square, within a stone’s throw of the White House, and about this square now live some of the richest people in Washington. John Hay’s house, built on land which cost him $6 a square foot, is just below that of the millionaire Corcoran, and opposite the Sickles man sion, on the other side of the square, is Sen ator Don-Cameron’s old-fashioned home,the Tayloe mansion. It is a eream yellow structure, of the English basement order, with a wide front door in the centre and a parlor on the second floor. Cameron paid $67,000 for it last year. Don Cameron is one of the largest of the Senatorial property-owners, and the day has come when nearly every Senator has his own home in Washington. Cameron made at least $45,000 out of the house which he built on Scott Circle. He has invested largely in suburban property, and he has a number of vacant lots within the city. I don’t think he is interested with Sena - or Sherman, and the two statesmen, though related by marriage, paddle their respective canoes alone in money-making streams. Senator Sherman has always had faith in i Washington property, and he says that during his recollection it has Increased at the rate of 10 per (cent, a year right along. The homo in which he lives faces Franklin Square, find is worth $50,000. He bought the ground when the square, which is now one of the most beautiful parks of the capital, was a cow pasture, and when tho boys used it as a ball ground. Through lus. influence a picket fence was built around it, but the boys objected and knocked the pickets off. Senator Sherman is one of a syndicate of four who several years ago paid $200,000 for the Stone estate, on the hills above Wash ington. at the head of Fourteenth street. This was at the rute of about 4c. a foot. Mrs. Logan now lives in the old Stone farm house, which has been remodelled, and the syndicate has doubled its money ten times over. Some of the land is worth $1 per square foot to-day, and none of it less tlian 35c. The best speculation of the past summer has been that of Gardiner Hubbard, the father-in-law of Telephone Bell. He paid SOO,OOO for what is now known as Belair Heights, on tho line of the Massachusetts avenue extension. It was a tract of hill and hollow, and Washington, which had seen nothing of the wonders of modern grading, w s laughing at him for his folly. Ho put 300 men at work, had an army of carts and a corps of blasters. He laid out his tract in lots and he spent SIOO,OOO in improving it. He has since sold $400,000 worth of lots and has some property left. His land lies on this side of Rock creek, and his venture has been so successful that I understand a big syndicate owning land on the other side of the stream will attempt the same thing. Between Hubbard’s property and the city lies Kalorama Heights, for which the Bullitt syndicate of Philadelphia paid $400,000 for four-fifths of it, on tho basis of $500,000 for the whole, and this property is to lie put upon the market at high prices in the spring. SOME OF THE SUPREME COURT JUDUKS have hern investing in Washington real estate, ami have done fairly well. Judge Harlan’s house on the Heights cost perhaps $30,000, and it is built on one of three lots which ho bought eighteen months ago. He sold one of these lots for enough to pay for the two others. Another of his lots went, I think, to Mrs. Justice Woods. Chief Justice Waite's home, near the Arlington Hotel, is worth at least S3O,(XX) more than ho paid for it, and Stanley Matthews has a house on Connecticut avenue, next to tho British 1/t‘gatioif, which he values nt SIOO,OOO. Jus tice Bradley lives on New Jersey avenue, near the capitol. He is a rich man, but his property has not increased to so great ail extent as has that of Matthews. Justice Fields lives just opposite the capitol plateau, nnd it is said that he wanted a high price for his property when it was thought of putting the Congressional Library upon its sib'. Justice Gray has bought a lot and in tends building, anti Justice Blatchforcl lately bought the house built by Gen. Humphries, and he could sell it to-day for $ la,ooo more than he paid for it. Sunset Cox made $30,000 by the sale of his Washington homo just before he left for Turkey, lio sold for SOO,OOO cash what ho bought for $30,000 on time. He is now building another house, which ho will be ready to sell at a similar advance. Presi dent Cleveland has made $30,000 in the in crease of tho value of the laud npon which liis country horn is located, and Secretary Whitney, lam told, cleared $90,000 in his sale at “Grasslands.” In the meantime, the news of these profits has created a sort of real estate craze in Washington. SSuburbnn property has been )iold at figures extravagantly high, and tho i surrounding villages have had their real es tate booms. Just now there arc decided in dications of a drop in the market, and j whether Washington is to have a real estate | Panic similar to some ot those of our Wes- | tern cities during the past summer remains to be seen.

No present you could make your family would bo more acceptable or give them so much enjoyment and benefit. If you bad begun paying $lO per month on a Piano two or three years ago you would now have it paid for. If you don’t begin soon old age may overtake you, and you will go through life with an unfurnished and cheerless home. Why delay? Pianos are cheap, very cheap. Never so good for the money. Less than one half their cost formerly. And the terms are so wonderfully easy. Only a few Loilars paid monthly will secure one. Start in and it will be yours and paid for before you know it. We can suit you in quality and prices. Just one look at our Warerooms will satisfy you on that point and that we lead in Best Instruments and Lowest Prices. Better Pianos for the money are simply not to be had. Call and we will convince you of this fact. L&B.S.M.L The Great Piano Depot of the South. ASPH ALT PAY EM ENT.
