WATERMELONS [AND CANTALOUPES—A FLURRY IN CHES “DURING THE WEEK, BUT FRICES AGAIN FIRM—OTHRE FEATURES OP THE WEEK. ‘To a casual observer strolling through the mar- ket and Its purlieus melons seem to be the feature of the market at present. Vessels at the 11th street wharf are constuntly discharging cargoes of watermelons, and a caravan of wagons traverses the region lying between the wharf and the mar- ket. Along B street last evening, before every commission house, were stacks of watermelons, whose size and shape were constantly varying. a3 Wagons carried away loads intended for other partsof the city or browzht tn fresh supplies trom the boats. One dealer told a Stak reporter that there Was very little profit in watermelons, as therr bulk ts $9 great. It takes a small army of Inen to handle a boat load of melons from the time they are picked until they are exposed for sale In the city. The supply of melons 1s plentl- ful, and the quality this year Is generally good. ‘They were selling iast nigiit from § to $15 per hun- red. Cantaloupes were scarcer yesterday than last week, and a little higher, but the demand was Rotsogreat. During the week there was A FLURRY IN PRACHES, ©ceas toned by the two days’ rain, which came ‘when the market was glutted. This flurry had no Widespread effects, but brought down the prices Of the peaches left over Wednesday and Thursday from the glut of the preceding days to 50 cents a box. One dealer told a Stax reporter that the fact that the “Arabs” or street hawkers did not take any stock on the rainy days deprived the market of a demand which ts quite large and steady. The Market, however,Wwas fully recovered last evening, and peaches of good quality were selling from $1 to $1.50 a box. In fact the flurry did not have inuch effect on peaches, fresh and of good quality. Some dealers say that there 13 no sale for apples. OTHER QUOTATIONS. ‘The crop of pears has becn unusually fine, both in quality and quantity. In foreign fruits the only notable change during the week has been an ad- Vance of 50 cents on lemons. A scarcity of cab- bages was reported last evening. Flour was re- Ported in good demand for chotce family and extra. The receipts of butter have been Iizht. ‘Tue common quotations last evening were from 15 to cents.

Ready, was picked up last night by Detectives Ha- yan and Mitchell In Baltimore on the charge of Ang a suspicious character. The man was dressed in a black suit of clothes, and represented himself as being a Citholic priest from Washington. Tue American says: He approached a young man hamed Cochran at the corner of Baltimore and Front strects last evening and asked for ald. He Tepresentet to Cochran that he was a priest, and Wanted assistance. Mr. Cochran took him to the Fesidence of Father Didier, om Front street, but the Father was not at home. Father Didier’s as- sistant, hewever, stated he did not belteve the man wis a priest, and he was taken In charge by the detectives. When about being searched at po lice headquarters he was seen to place several apers tn bis mouth, and endeavoring to swallow hem. He was forced to desist, and the papers ex- amined and found to contain addresses of several parties residing in Baltimore and Philadelphia.

ANDERSON’S UNIQUE AND STATELY MANSION—INTERIOR DECOR ATIO: BECOMING ELABORATE AND COSTLY—SOME FINE ‘HOUsES. Prices Upon the Ste “What is the prospect for the fall season in real estate?” asked a Stam man of a gentieman largely engaged In real estate operations, “I don’t think,” was the reply, “that there will be many new buildings started, at least by those who want to make a profit on their investment. The trouble is that material is too high. Of course a few hundred dollars extra wont deter those who are building houses for thelr own tse: Dut to those who are looking at the profit a few hundred dollars makes a great difference. Now there is brick.” he continued, “it costs $16 per thousand for brick in the wall, and that is at least $3 too much. ‘Then there fs painting; the increase in wages adding to the cost. The prices for other materials remain about the same, but the cost of building taken as a whole is now much greater than it was last year.” “What is the cause of it, do you suppose?” quer- fed the listener. “On, well, there are causes, but that don’t alter the fact,” was the practical reponse. “I suppose,” he continued, “the newspapers have had a great deal todo with 1. There has been too much booming of real estate, and the practical result 18, that mechanics get ‘uneasy and want higher Wages, and It tends to stiffen prices in every dt- rection, the impression being general that build ing operations are bound to go on.” Whether this 1s the utterance of a “bear” in the Teal estate market the operations during the com- tng fall only will demonstrate. The prophets pre- dict a lively fall season, but whether the activity: will extend any further than purchases of real estate It is Impossible to say. THE HIGH-WATER MARK IN PRICES. It the truth was known real-estate prices are Inclined to be sti, and the tendency ts towards higher figures. The amount of avaflable ground that still remains unimproved is Cited as a reason for the bellet that the high-water mark for the Present has been reached. There 1s no lack of capital to be Invested, and there seems to be a very general feeling of confidence in the future of this city and in the desirablitty of real-est ite in- ‘vestments. Hence any real good bargain dees not go begging, ani there 1s consideruble competition among thos? that have the money toget in “on the ground floor” before it is too late. If such a feeling as this may be sald to constitute a boom, there is then without doubt a yery manifest boom in real estate in thiscity. The appreciation in values, however, has not, except in a few In- stances, given @ much larger profit on invested capital than a judiclous investinent in other di- Tections would have recelved. As has been fre- quently stated in Tue Stax, fancy prices have not, and do not now, prevail, and so speculation ts con= fined to narrow margins and reasonable percent- ages. THE REASON BRICKS ARE HIGH. Recurring to the subject of the cost of building material the answer of an officer of one of the largest brick machine companies in the District to a question by a Star reporter 1s pertinent. “Why are bricks so high?” was the question. His laconic but figurative reply was, “because people will,bulld such high houses.” This 1s only another way of saying that there 1s @ great demand for bricks, and of this fact the readers of Tue Stax are already aware. Besides the numerous private buildings now going up, the immense structure in Judictary square, Intended for the use of the Pension Office, 1s in progress of erection, and is belng built. entirely of bricks. Uniess there 1s. a decline In the price of material competent judges predict that there won't be very much building begun tn the fall. FINE HOUSES TO BE BUILT. The nuraber of houses that will be bullt this fall by people for their own use will be, It 1s eld by good authority, quite noticeable. It 1s further sald that several very elegant houses will be crected, and there is a tangible rumor that one of the foreign governments will buld a legation house here which will cost, $100,000 and ve a very grand affair. There are alg» men of wealth who own land here and are only awaiting a favorable opper- tunity to improve it. Gen. Anderson’s Palatial Mansion. ‘The house which Gen. N. L. Anderson is butld- ing, at the corner of 16th and K streets, 13 so nearly completed that it will be ready for occu- pancy early inthe fall. ‘The time occupted in its erection, as well as the unique style of architec- ture, has drawn more general attention to it than 4s usally the case in this city, where handsome, costly residences are springing up on all sides a3 it some magician had waved his wand, and the beautiful architectural structures had risen trom the earth. The house Is so entirely different from every other house in po.nt of mossiveness and sim- icity that It 18 @ good deal discussed. The opt lons Vary; some think that it fs too severe in sty others that Its thick brick walls and narrow case- ments are unsuitable for this climate, while some object tothe high roor surmounting the two stories as giving a squatty effect. The idea of the archi- tect_has been to erect a house, the chief character- istic of which would be dignity. It {s the general opinion that he has succeeded. From the soltd granite curbing which marks the graceful green slope surrounding the house, to the plain strong Unes of the high pitched roof, the entire building 1s in harm ony with this idea, THE INTERIOR DECORATIONS. While the outside of the house {3 familiar to the public, the details of the inside decorations are not well known. The work !s now in such an ad- vanced state that a very intelligent idea can be formed of what it will be when completed. The house, while facing on two streets, has really no entrance on elther. There {5 a small doorway at the extreme end of the I6th street front, which opens into the vestibule, but the main entrance opens for the porte cochere at the side of the house. A large chain gate swings under the mas- sive arch of the porte cochere, admitting the car- riages under the archway, which 1s celled with wood. Carved ovken doors, swinging on gold- piated hinges, admit to the vestibule, whiten 1s completely panelled in oak. ‘The floor 13 tiled. A few steps lead up to the handsome front doors of Oak. Opposite the milo entrance in the vestibule 4s a door leading into the basement for the use of the servants, and making It unnecessary for them to go through the house to admit visitors. A POEM IN OAK. The main door opens into a large square hall, Which is rich In al the effects that oak carving and panelling imparts. The celling and walls are completely covered with this beautiful wood, ar- ranged in artistic panels, and the effects produced by this lavish use of oak 1s novel and impressive, It's splendid room and a worthy entrance to the beauties which lie on all sides. On the right 1s a large open fire place, and on the opposite side 15 the stair case of solid’ oak, with two landings, which are lighted by several stained glass wine dows rising with the stairway. A screen of oak, carved in the open Egyptian style, adds an addi tonal charm to the splendors of the hall,and fs In- tended to give retirement to the brary, which 1s on the east'side of the hall, and 1s a perfect gem. THE LIBRARY AND DRAWING-ROOM. Low book cases run round the walls, and a large tiled fireplace projects In the center of the room. pout the open fire cluster quaint old benches with curved backs, and under the narrow window Tuns a low seat. The wood work 1s painted a dark | grecn. Opening out from the hall and occupying the northwest part of the house 1s the drawing- room. Adjoining this 1s a smaller parlor and n-xt is th luing. Another unique feature of the house 15 seen In the treatment of these two rooms—the drewing-room and the dining-room. The wood work of the former ts entirely of pice, while that of the latter ts mahogany, a reversal of the general rule. ‘The pine wood work of the parior is patnted in the French style in white and gold, and the ouly €laborate ornament ts the mantel, which isa beat- Ulul pl ce of carving, rich in delicate tracery of uch fine Workmanship as to be overlooked at the first gianee. An oval plate-glass_ mirror is sunk in the wood work in the upper part of the mantel. ‘The lower window at the Lurther corner fs utliized by a large roomy divan. THE DINING KOOM IN MAHOGANY. The dining room next to the hall would attract the attention of those who like fine wood joining and carving. It 15 finished throughout in ma- hogany. The ceiling 1s wholly made of this beau- tiful wood, the main part divided into squares by mahogany molding. ‘The side walls are covered h panels, while under the large window look- ing on 16th ‘street. runs a wide locker-like seat, Which 13 also of mahogany. The entire room glows with the rich colors of the wood, and the effect is very striking. In the panels above the manicl an oll patnting of the father of the owner Of the house has been set in. ‘The large fire place ig set in huge slabs of Sienna marble—a yellowish stone—and to show the solid character of the work a long, deep shelf has been carved out of the solid marble. In the south wall of the room are two stained glass windows, OTHER APARTMENTS. The chambers up stairs are finished in pine, which are patnted in colors—pale greens and the reddish hues now so fashionable. ‘Tbe bath rooms and other portions correspond with the finished style of workmanship which prevails throughout the house, In the basement there is a billiard room, besides the kiteben, laundry and servants’ rooms. Every detail about the house is finished in the most thorough and substantial manner. Skilled Wokmnen, under the supervision of the well-known vuilder, Mr. Charles Edmonston, have been em- ployed for months in the intertor, and the wood on the ceilt and walls is fitted with all the nicety of cabinet work. FROBADLE COST OF THE HOUSE. Gen. Anderson’s house, with the notable excep- tion of tae Brodhead house, now owned and oc- cupied by Prof. A. G. Bell, which cost $100,000, ‘Will be the most expensive private residence ever erected in this city.

It bids fair to come in gen- eral use with the better class of houses, ‘The hall in the residence which Mr. D. R. Mc- Kee ts building, at the corner of Rhode Island and Connecticut avenues, is a fine specimen of the modern style of wainscgted and panelled hard wood. The hall is a large square room, the wall and ceilings completely covered with polished oak. At the opposite side of the entrance is the fire place with a handsomely carved mantel, and above it is the platform of the staircase with a Talling, showing fine carved tracery work. The ceiling’ot the dining-room 1s paneled in oak, and @ wainscoting five feet high runs around the room. A FINE COUNTRY RESIDENCE. Another house, which ts handsomely finished tn the inside, 1s the country residence of Mr. George Truesdell, which is now near completion. It is situated at the intersection of Columbia road with Woody Lane road, and {s on one of those hill tops which, Interspersed with grassy, wooded ravines, 1g the characteristic of the country about Rock creek.

WASHINGTON GRovE, MONTGOMERY Co., MD., August 18, '3. Yesterday was one of the most pleasant that has occurred since camp commenced. The bright suushine Was accompanied by a delightful in- vigorating breeze. Shortly after the bell rang for Tising everybody was astir. Some busied them- selves In getting the dampness out of the clothes that were packed in trunks and tents thrown open to let in the sunshine. The mud of yesterday soon disappeared and men were early set at work around the tabernacle to remove the wet straw. Everybody was busy, and the old maxim “many hands make light work” was verified. The morning trains brought a large number from the city,while the country people began com- ing In about ten o’clock, At each service the tabernacle was well filled. ‘The photographers had_special reason for wel- coming the sunshine. Judging by the many couples that meandered towards thelr tents profitable business was done. PREPARING FOR SUNDAY. Already preparation 1s being made for Sunday, and as this is the only camp-meeting now golng on, thousands are expected to be here. To see the ar- Tangements going on at the hotel for Sunday din- er one would imagine an army corps was to be fed. But the Sunday dinner ts nothing to be com- pared with the complimentary dinner for which Invitations are being issued by Mr. Noyes, to be given to the executive committee and preachers Next Wednesday. It 1s also expected that a larze number of prominent gentlemen irom Washing- ton, who have been invited, will be present. YESTERDAY'S SERVICES, At 6:30 yesterday morning there was a family prayer meeting in the tabernacle. At 8: i. McKenny led the meeting. Att . W. T. Weech preached an excellent s mon on “purity of heart,” taking for his text Mark, 5th chap., verse 8, ‘Come out of the man, thon unclean spirit.” ‘The usual children’s and ladies’ meetings were hela, and both had large audiences. Th2 former Was led by Rev, H. S. France, and the latter by Mrs. Burris. ‘The sermon at 3 p. m. was by the Rev. J. H. Ry- land. It was followed ‘by an earnest exhortation and invitation to the altar. At 6:9 p.m, the ringing of the tabernacto bell brought together a larze congregation to unite in a praise and consecration meeting preparatory for the 7:30 service, At the evening service Rev. H. 8. France preached a convincing and forcible sermon from Ue text found in Luke, 15, 18: “I willarise and go unto my Father.” There were s1x conversions, one of the converts being a soldier. At this setvice Prof. Sipe presided at the organ. The music last night had the genuine camp-meeting ring. CAMP NOTES. ‘The warhorse of the camp-meeting arrived yes- terday in the person of the Rev.
