Berkley for the laying of a board walk on the west side of Columbia avenue, fron. Chapin street to Columbia road, that the District will lay the board walk under the permit system Of proportional payment, and that the estimated cost to the property owners will be $180. THE GENERAL GOVERNMENT SHOULD PAY FOR THE PAVEMENT. In reply to the request of Frank B. Conger, city Postmaster, that C street In rear of the ‘post Office be paved anew, the Cornmlssioners state that the paviug of the aidewwlk with granite blocks Is not hecessary for the general public, but tor the special accommodation of the post offic: which backs Its wagons across the street, anu virtually blocks the sldewalk. The use of the sidewalk is no doubt necessary, but the expense of paving !t with costly material for the spectal use of the p» t | office should be patd by*the Post Office depart- ment. ‘This hus been the invariabie rule in stmui- lar casea.

Some Interesting Geesip About House and Room Hunters. THE METHODS OF HOUSR HUNTERS AND THEIR TRIALS—THE ADVANCE IN BENTS AND THE CAUSE— WHY PEOPLE BUY REAL ESTATE IN THIS CITY— ‘THR PROSPEOTS FOR THE SEASON JUST OPEXING— SUGGESTIVE EXPERIENCE OF A YOUNG MAN IN SEARCH OF 4 HOME—SOME IMPROVEMENTS NOW ‘IN PROGRESS. One of the reasons given by real estate dealers why there will be great activity in their business tnis fall ts the Increased demara for houses to rent. Of this fact there can be no doubt, as‘any one in Search of a house can testify. The owners of houses are also reminded more frequently than ‘they think fs conducive to the happiness of a well- Tegulated family that there are a good many peo- Ple who want rooms. Their front door bolls loudly Prociaim that fact, and the absence of the famitiar legend, “Rooms to Rent,” 1s not a guarantee that they will be free from such applications. Persons in search of rooms are not deterred by the fact that there ts no notice on the house of rooms to Tent from making an inquiry, and their enterprise is frequently rewarded by ‘affirmative answers and an invitation to inspect apartments which are above the average. The houses are not ex- empted, and the room-hunter insearch of desira- bie quartors goes first to localities which please his or her fancy, and after a systematic canvass of the neighbor if not guited, wanders to the next destrable locatity and all over again. ‘There is a science in leo! for rooms which only experience can give; but while the mental part of it may receive the aid of experience there ts noth- ing to lessen the physical fatigue occasioned by Cilmbing steps of all degrees of steepness, and walking what seems miles and miles of pavement. Itts not the happiest sort of existence and some People do not undertake it any oftener than they bly can help, while others seem to pes ing Most Of the year in looking for rooms Just it and never finé any. THR TRIALS OP HOUSE HUNTING. It ts much the same way with houses, They are hard to find, people say, and in this respect one year 1s pretty much like another. In the spring and fall society seems to be pretty well torn up over the great house question, and the trials and vexations attending the changes, or proposed changes, form the usual toplc of social conversa- Uon. People who sre looking for houses will tell you that there is a great scarcity; that It 13 abso- Tutely Impossible to find a house that 1s decent to live in, and that the prices asked are simply mon- strous, The room hunters are equally positive on these points, and altogether there 1s a very lary class of people in the city who are just now ina Very dissatisfied frame of mind. HIGHER RENTS THIS YEAR. ‘There 1s no doubt that there 1s a great demand oth for houses and rooms this fall, and in conse- quence the prices have advanced very considerably. As before stated, real estate men claim that thisisa healthy sign. As one prominent dealer remarked toa Srar reporter: “It shows that the population fs Increasing, and this demand for more room, making itscIt felt at a tme when a great many new houses have been put up, proves that the addition to our population ts very large. ‘The permanent popul:- Uon has Increased, and then the class of people who want to come’hcre to spend the winter Is much greater than ever before. ‘This makes living u. ommodations scarce and high In some quar- ters” “Is not the advance fn rents general throughout the entire city?” asked the reporter. “Outside of a certain distance from what we term the center of the city,” was the reply, “the ad- Yance in prices 1s not very great,and in#ome cases there has been no advance atall But take the section of the city within an easy waiking dis tance of the Treasury aud of the avenue down to 8d or 21 street, and prices have advanced consid- erably.” “The reason for this 1s very apparent,” he con- tinued. “People like to Hve in what they think are convenient localities, and as the section west of 7th street and north of F 1s generally regarded as such, why naturally people rush there in crowds, and naturally again prices go up. There 18 plenty of room in other locallties and people had better find it out, instead of growling about high prices.” WHY PROPLE INVEST IN RRAL ESTATE, - Another dealer sald that peopte who came here to spend the winter liked the elty so much that they would not go away without first buying some Property. ‘This sounds like a humorous extrava- ganee, but the speaker really meant what he sald and tilere 13 no doubt that his remark 1§ substan- tially true. The future growth of the city Is ap- parent to the most casual observer, and the advan- tages of Investing in real estate ‘are readily per- ceived and appreciated. THE OUTLOOK FOR THE FALL SEASON. ‘The prospects for the fall season seem to point to great activity in the realestate market. Money 1s plentiful, and people have confidence to Invest here and are doing tt largely. The large number of houses begun this season are going up and the record of new houses compares favorably with any previous year. Dealers differ in opinion as to Whether there will be much buliding this fall Some think that the advance in the prices of ma- terial will deter many from banding: This ad- vance is not very much compared with the prices Of last year, but it fs thought that with the ad- Vance In the price of land, building for speculative Purposes or by those who Intend to rent will not begun, Some bullders find 1t alMcuit to get brick as fast as they want them, but this ts the experience mainly of those that use hand made bricks. ‘The brick machine companies are filing all orders, and there is no delay on their part. It isnot thought that there wiil be any decline in the prices of brick tits year, INTERESTING EXPERIENCE OF A HOUSE-HUNTER. ‘The delights of house-hunting are pretty well illustrated by the experience of a young man, as related toa Star reporter, who Intends soon to getmarried. He began the search for a house where he might bring his young bride. He started out with the intention of securing a house that hed three virtues, namely, that 1t should be within a reasonable distance of the Treasury de- partment; that {t should have not more than six Tooms, and that the rental should not exceed $25 per month. He thought that these were very modest requirements. He had reason to change his mind. But it would be better to let him teil the story of his search. “I consulted with @ number of real estate agents,” he began, “and also took a list of houses of the kind I wanted that were advertlsed in the dally papers. I first went in the section of the city that les west of the new State, War and Navy department building and south of the avenue with a list of several houses. One was de- seribed In the papers of that day as a neat two- story frame house $25 per month, and I thought that tt would Just about sul: me, and perhaps I might ger the landlord to reduce the rent.” “Of course you took that hous2 at once,” inter- rupted the reporter, “When I got there the evening of that day,” continued the young man, with a solemnity of tone that was almost pathetic, “It was taken and the family already in the house.” ‘The listener breathed a sympathetic sigh. ““'The next house,” resumed the young man more briskly, “was described as being delightfully located, surrounded by a large yard, and remark bly dry. The latter statement was undoubt diy correct, as it ws perched about 80 feet above the Street, and no doubt the occupants would be in the same condition after making the ascent. But as I am generally a temperance man, I would not Need an artificial thirst creator, at least every day; and, besides, salt fish produces the same Tesult with less effort. So I did not make the ascent. There were other houses that Were available in this vicinity, but some were cn the summit of Yellowstone canons; others nestled by the side of placid duck ponds, while stil! others overlooked commons, where the goat toye! with tomato cans, and objects of similar natural beauty adorned the scenery. Tne girl I am going to marry ig not accustomed to this kind of lantscape gar- dening,and I was afraid that she would become 80 Much absorbed in it as to nezlect me. It 1s dan- ficrous to make ‘experiments when you haven't married long, you know,” concluded the young man, sagely. ‘The re) r thought he detected a tinge of sar- casm in the eoncluding remarks, but the solemn expression of the young man’s face remained un- changed. “‘I then went in another direction,” he resumed, after a pause. “Out on 9th strect, near Boundary, a nice little two-story house was advertised. The rent bing $29, I thought it would do, but when I got there, on the evening of the day ft was adver- Hsed, 1t-was rented:” and the young man breathed “There was another small frame house in that Vicinity, Dut the rent was $30.” “I then went further west,” continued the nar- Fator, “and on 14th street, near Boundary, } found some new houses that could be bad for'$#5, and on W street there were some that rented for $20.” “Why didn’t one of theso houses suit” asked the reporter. “They were too far out,” was the reply. “A friend told me who lives in tit locality that the car fare for himself and family amounted to $5 per month, to say nothing of the time. There was a Tow of nice houses further east and south which Were not Qnished. They had, however, all been Tented for $30 per month, and ‘the corner one for #0. These were two-story bricks, containing six Tooms each.” then went on Capitol Hill,” continued the young man ina discouraging tone, “but found no Suitable houses east of 4th street.’ I did not care {to go any further east, but I suppose I might have found a house if Thad. AN the houses west of 4th Feet rented for $80.and upwards.” “In South Washington, where I next went, there were more houses,” sald the young man’ quite cheerfully. “I found a number’ that could be had AU $25 per month. I think that I shall decide to take one, Tam going to talk the matter over with the young lady,” and with this very satisfactory conclusion, the story of one house hunting experi- ence was ended.

Tn the Police Court to-day Francis C. Long was charged with an assault on Mrs, Catherine Odlum. Mr. Cahill appeared for the defendant. Mrs Odlum testified that a few days age when she was Occupying rooms in 72! 12th street the defendant Caine to her rooms and ordered her out and shoved her and drew a pistolon her daughter, Mrs. Char- lotte Smith, ard ordered two colored men to come up and set thelr things out, but they refused to obey him. On cross-eXamination withess denied that Mrs, Smith drew a knife, ‘MES. CHARLOTTE SMITH TRSTIFIRD that Long came to her mother’s bed-room an4 sald he wanted them to leave the rooms, and then com. maenced to move the furniture out, and she ordered him out and he drew a pistol and presented It to her head, when her mother ran between them and he violently thrust her aside: witness then grabbed a.water pitcher and said “You cowardly scoundrel get out,” and he left. ‘On cross-examination the witness stated that she was born in New Orleans, bad lived in Phila- deiphia, Chicago and St. Louls; was a mua Woman but did not know that her husband Was living; had been alone for ten years; her means of Support were her brains exercised in writing; was a correspondent; had Mved here Unree years; had no kaife in her hand. MR. LONG'S STORY. ‘Mr. Long testified that they procured rooms in his house by Inadvert>nce; that on the 6th of Au- gust he had notified th-m to leave by September 1st; that they had insulted his family; that on account of their conduct he shut off their gas and Water; he had loaned Mrs. Smith some manu- script and went to ask about it, when she sald she Knew nothing of tt; he then told her to leave, and Mrs Smith struck him witn a muctiage bowie and Mrs. Odlum came to him; Mrs. Smith had a kotfe and mde at him, and be then drew the pistol, but did not point it at elther of them. OTHER TESTIMONY, James Osborn, colored, testified that he went up stairs with Mr. Long. The young lady hada knife and acted like she intended tocut Mr. Long. Mr. Lohg did not strike either one of them. Mrs. ‘Smith also threw a bottle at him and came near striking him. Lemuel L Butler, Iving at 436 Massachusetts avenue, testifi-d thit he would not believe Mrs. Smith and Mrs. OJlum on oath. On cross-exam- ination witness said that he had had a diMcuity with them. Mr. J. J. Calvert, Janitor of the Corcoran bulld- ing, gave similar testimony. ‘THE CASE DISMIS8ED. ‘The court said that there was no charge as to drawing the pistol, and the whole question 1s nar- Towed down as to whether Mr. Long was justified. Mr. Long denies that he assaulted the parties and he Is corroborated by the colored man. The burden 1s upon the government to make the case, and be- yond a reasonable doubt. He was not quite clear ‘Uhat the case was made out, and It seemed to him that the injuries to Mrs. Odlum might have been accidental As there were two witnesses on each side, and as the injuries could be accounted for, he would dismiss tie case.
