IN NEW YORK, the Tribune reports as the resuit of better times an improvement inreal property. The revival of business arid the general prosperity in all the trades and professions are in no way more clear- ly shown than by the increased demand for of- ices and stores down-town. Rents and prices have advanced, and many improvements in buildings bave been made, éspecially near Wall strect, Great activity fn real estate on the west side of the city is noted. 3{uch interest is taken in the efforts to reopen Manhattan Market. Real estate ugents say the jacuvily: in their business surpasses ul! expectation. Not since isons there been such a demand for offices. Rooms in Nussau street, near the Stock Exchange, which huve rented ‘heretofore for $2,000, will now be rented at $4,000 a year, and those which rented at $1,500 can readily be rented at $2,000 or $2,500, Exorbitant offers aro made for tloors in new buildings, or in those which are being repaired. The offices in the new Stevens Building. Nos. 14 and i6 Wail street, and No. 3 Nassau street, which is nearly ready for occupancy, are, with two or three excep- tions, alt rented at very bigh figures. In this building there are several apartments of three rooms each which are leased for $12,000 2 year, So profitable an investment does the erection of new buildings on this ground seem to be that certain oid buildings near by are to be torndown and larger and finer buildings are to be con- structed on the sites. ‘The New York Bulictin.says_tbat awhile ago there was a fair prospect of % UNUSUAL ACTIVITY IN BUILDING ENTERPRISES, not cae here, but in the neighboring cities; but the rapid appreciation of all’ kinds.of material since the close of the last business season bids fair to disappoint expectations. For instance, allsorts of architectural iron have advanced about 100 per cent; common brick from $5.50 to $11 per 1.000; Jumber from $11 to $15; lath from $1.25 to $2.75; lime from $1.25 per barrel to 32.54 cement, 25 to 30 cents per barrel; plaster, 13 cents; plasterer’s hair, 5 to 10 cents per bushel. Labor remains about the same as Just season; but with trades-union notitications of another general strike with the incoming ot spring, it is not surprising that leading -builders are dis- couraged and disposea to throw up their con- tracts. fi SATURDAY’S TRANSFERS. ‘The following instruments were filed for rec- ord Saturday, Feb. 28: ‘ -CITY PROPERTY. ‘West Huron st, ne.cor of Ashland av, 8 f, Six 15 ft, improved, dated Feb. 2 (Jotin H.

Speaking of instances which have comne within his own experience, he specially mentions four. The first is that of a young lady who, while riding onaroad (attended by a groom), lost her seat and became sus- pended by the stirrup or habit to a pommel of the saddle. The frightened horse gal- oped on for a mile, and the unfortunate Jady’s head was dashed along the hard, flinty roads and passing sragons, with un- happily fatal consequences. Ie then men- tions another case in which a lady, while hunting, by some means lost her seat and became suspended either by her habit or Stirrup, while the horse dashed away in all directions, but was stopped before much damage was done. He next quotes two other accidents in which ladies were thrown. to the oif-side of the saddle. In one case the feet became immovably fast in what he styles ‘‘the so-called safety-stir- rup,” and her horse careered and circled widely around, until others of the company were able to catch the bridle and stop the frightened creature. ‘The fourth and last example cited happened to the gentleman’s own daughter, whose horse jumped a ditch while nuntivg, and fell on his knees and partly on his right side, the consequence to he rider being that she was thrown on the Tight or off-side. On the horse rising, the skirt of the habit incircled the near-side pom- mel, and the lady was suspended on the off- side. Fortunately the animal only wenta short distance before the lady was rescued. from her perilous position. Col. Lovell then proceeds to suggest remedies. One of his ideas is to do away with the hem or binding at the bottom of the habit, and another is that the seams from the knees downward should be held together by buttons, fiveinchesormore apart, loosely sewn to an underlining of very thin clot}, and that especial care should be taken to test that they can be torn off with the greatest ease. Neither of these remedies is very practicable. The present fashion of short skirts avoids much of the danger, and, for once, meets common sense. So healthful an exercise as that of riding ought to be di- vested of any unnecessary danger of costum: in order that the timid may not be deterre: from participating in-it. ““A’ Teacher of Riding” calls attention to the fact that tailors sew two elastic bands inside the skirt, to be worn on the feet to keep the habit ‘in its piace. This he deems a most dangerous practice, as with the stirrup it doubly hampers. the foot, and! in case of, accident, divides the efforts of the riders to disengage the foot in time to provide for the'r “ufety. A properly- taught horsewoma h & properly-fitting habit, ‘will experience xo difficulty in keeping it in its position without these artificial aids. a AMUSEMENTS, - NORTH SIDE TURNER HALL.
