It is almost too early for apy building, but before summer has passed it is expected that the butiding boom will strtke this locality. At present all the residences in the village are occupied, except, perhaps, one or.two. ‘There are, however, a {ew drawbacks, ! which help in a small degree to retard the in- terest that should be taken by city people in iMeulty j tu getting the attention of our District Com missioners to the needs of this locality.

Now it the Stone estave has been purchased aud the fence enclosing it from the Toad been removed, it is to be hoped that some action in this matter may be taken by the Commissioners andthe road widened. A petition to this end has been lately presented to the Commissioners, and represents the views of the leadin; ig resi- dents here, SIDEWALKS NEEDED. Among other improvements there ts none More universally needed than brick sidewalks, There are but two principal streets which im- ; Mediately require this improvement—Park Street and Howard avenue. At present there is no walk on Park street, save a few boards Jeft from a much dilapidated wood walk that has seen service for several years. This was originally laid by the villagers; while on How- ard avenue there is nothing in the form of a sidewalk but a little gravel and some ashes laid by citizens along that street. paring levery, winter and gpring the walking has vad, espec! deemed bighly imprudent to venture out at night without risk of. wading over shoe tops in mud and slush. walking was so extremely bi munity 1m a body petitioned the Commissioners to remedy the evil at as early a date as possible.

The village population is steadily increasing. At present, the white and colored schools are locatedin one buiiding, containing but four rooms, each room repre- senting two grades. Owing to the increased number of attendants in each school, there is a growing necessity for greater accommodations. At a meeting of the villagers recently the mat- ter was lengthily discussed, and it was finally cecided that the most expedient thing to be done ‘was the erection of another bullding for the accommodation of the colored schools, The District Commissioners were notifed, as also Trustees. No fault 1s to be cf accommodation. MORE LIGHT, A180. Some few years ago the gas company laid Pipes along Park street and Howard avenue, and gas is used in some of the houses. One or two street lamps conveniently placed on each street would be most acceptable to the vil- lagera, who have hitherto had to grope thair way in pitchy darkness through the mud, or else use lanterns. To all these needed improvements the villa- gers feel they are justly entitled, inasmuch as they pay for them. A neat brick pavement. four feet wide, on both sides the roads, would begreatly appreciated, and it would cost but litule, Until. these improvements are made there can be but little butiding. if the 14th street road was widened anda Similar sidewalk laid on the east as on the west side of the street, a one-horse tramway Would soon be established between the city and the village. OTHER MATTERS, Mr, J. T. Christmond, who owns a grocery and proviston store in the village, has oullt and occupies a similar store at the corner of 14th ; and Boundary streets. A very pleasant sociable was given at Unton Hail last week, under the auspices of Mr. Wm. A, Schenkle. There was an agreeable company of young ladies and gentlemen present, who enjoyed themselves dancing until a late hour. During the evening some excellent refreshmenta Were served, and comfort and pleasure com- bined made the evening pass Off very pleas- antly.

Within the walis (or weil hole) of these stairs there is a hydraulic elevator of most approved construction, with a huge wrought tron tank over bead, containing at ail times abundant water for running the elevator for the house, should the steam pumps, by any means, be disabled. There are iron service stairs, from basement to top story, enclosed by brick walls and iron railings, on top of which 5,000 tons of water are stored in iron tanks, supported by rolled iron beams, This stairway is also really an unbroken fire- proot shaft, The building isto be heated py Steam throughout, and water is abundantly supplied to 24 bath-rooms “in the different Stories.

Thirteen years ago New York was witiout large dwellings fitted to accommodate ine Class of people in moderate circumstances. Now, thereare many thousands of them in that city, and great numbers of the inhabitants of large or comfortable incomes are gathered into such houses. The first apartment house in that city Was built in 1869, Dut not until 1si5 did those kind of dwellings begin to be erected in large numbers. In that year, it is stated, 112 were built, and at the end of 1Ss0, there were 1,254 such establishments in that olty, and auring the present year, It Is sald, the number will be largely Increased. The prices charged for the apartments are stil] too high to make it @ popular manner of living, but shouid they continue to be put up, the repts will doubvtuess be adapted to the circumstances of the occu- pants. Their aavantage seems to be that they enable many familes to have homes of their Own management in the central parts Of Cities, Who wouid otherwise be compelled to live in boarding houses or go to remote parts of the suburbs or county. The invention and improvement of the elevator has made the erection of these kind of houses possivle.

Mr. John T, Lenman has awarded the con- tract and will soon commence the erection of two fine dwellings on L street_northwest, be tween 6th and 7th strests. Each house wiil bave a front of 20 feet and depth of 40 feet, and willbe three stories high, with finished base- ment. Ample coal vaults are provided for each house, and all modern conveniences in- troduced. The fronts will be faced with press brick, laid in dark mortar, and the Uulwmings over doors and windows formed with moulded brick and stone, and the cornices made with moulded brick and gaivanized fron. ‘The parlors will be trimmed tn cherry, with babdrome cherry mantels in pariors and dining rooms. The second stories will be finished in poplar, and the third stories in pine, and Dnished in hard oll and wax varnish. John B. Brady ts the architect. Cost $10,000. Mr. Brady has prepared plans for a first class Store, to be erected om the north side of New York avenue, between lith and 15th, for Mr. Jno. T, Lenman. The building will be 25 feet Trent and 90 feet deep; four stories hich.

The building will be heated by steam, and steam heating will be introduced into the adjoinin: buildings, belonging to Mr. Lenman. The cos! Of this improvement Will be $20,000, On H street northwest, between 1Sth and 19th, the erection of two houses has been com- menced for M. C. C. Glover. Each of these dwellings will be 20 feet front and 67 feet deep, three stories high, with finished basements; basements contain furnace room, servaats’ room, kitchen, laundry. store rooms, &0.; the principal stories, parlor, library, dining room aud butler’s try, The second and third stories cant conveniently rrai rooms, with ample Closets, bath rooms, &c.
