The many happy gatherings of onr citizens and near-by residents which have been held in Holmes' Grove will always be among the pleasant memories of the past No more will our pretty maids trip the "light fantastic" in its spacious pavilion or picnic amidst its cooling shades. Situated as it is on the summit of a hill, which overlooks Rosedale and all the adjoining country, covered with beautiful forest trees, and all as level as a floor, it was picked out as the best piece of ground lying any- where in or out of Rosedale for the pur pose of placing on the market an addi tion to the city for resident purposes. A more beautiful or healthy place for a residence can not be found any where. For those who have employ ment in Kansas City and are obliged to go in and out daily there is the street car which starts within a few hundred yards of the Grove and will land them at the junction of Ninth and Main for five cents. Those who have business in the bottoms can take the Ft Scott Gulf railway, which runs at convenient hours, at cost of six cents, the depot being only a short distance farther from the Grove than the street cars are.

A good six room libuse with 75x130 feet of improved grounds and large barn, two cisterns and a good well, are the only improvements at present But we are reliably informed that over twenty-four lots of the Grove (now called Holmes' Grove addition) have been sold to parties, most of whom have bought with the intention of building at once. Some contracts have already been let for pretty residences. The terms are such that any one can buy; only $10 to $15 per foot and on long time. This is fd to $8 below the price of lots that do not lay any thing like as well as these do. A more beautiful site or a better location for a home can not be found, as it contains all the advantages of the pure air of the country with quick and convenient transit to and from the city.

We trust that yon will call on Mr. W. H. Browne, No. 9 West Ninth street Kansas Citv, who will give you full particulars, before it is too late, and secure at least one of these lots before they ire all taken.
