Hall, the enterprising real estate man, has said for all his remaining interest in the Highland addition to the thriving town of Santa Fe. The purchase was made by a syndicate of Santa Fe gentlemen, whose object is to harmonize the interests of the town by maintaining all the old street lines as originally laid out. This ca'e does not by any means wipe out Dr. Hall's interest in the town, as he yvthoidsa large portion of the real estate in tho original town plat. It is probably, needless to add that the town company is going ahead with renew od vigor to make Santa Fe even more successful in the future than it has been in the past.
