REAL ESTATE GOSSIP. Points for a New Map of the City’s Suburbs. WHAT HAS BEEN DONE IN SUBDIVIDING LAND DUR- INQ THE PAST YEAR—THE LOCATION OF THR PROPOSED ZOOLOGICAL PARK BEING PREPARED YOR THE RECEPTION OF ANIMALS. The engineer department of the District government since the passage of the new sub- division law has, as far as practicable, surveyed the lines of the extension of the city streets beyond the bounds of the city. As the law re- | quires that all subdivisions must conform to the plan of the city, requests that have been | received for the surveys of streets have been complied with. When furnished with these lines, the owners of property were enabled to subdivide in sccordance with the law. This work has been in charge of Mr. D. J. Howell, the civil engineer, who afew weeks ago re- signed in order to resume his private busin: Mr. Howell has pre) for the year ending = a this report is a topograj map o' trict, upon which is delineated the various sub- divisions of land that have been made during the past year. This map affords s graphic rep- resentation of the progress in the development of the suburbs. The recent subdivisions sup- plementing those made in previous years as seen on the map practically completes the cir- cuit of the bounds of the city, and in addition extends some distance from the city lines to- ward the bounds of the District, Av Mr. How- ell remarked toa Stax man, in explaining the map, the large areas of land outside of the Dis- trict lines, which have been subdivided, are not included in this representation of suburban activity. Mr. Howell said that the movement in suburban property as indicated by the map is not confined to any one section, but it ex- tends throughout the northwest section of the District, in the northeast section, specially along the Metropolitan of the Balti- more and Ohio railroad and the Eckington Electric railroad, and eastward along the line of the Washington branch of the same road, and southward across the East- ern branch. Some of the subdivisions made during the past year were | pointed out by Str. Howell as well as a number | where the plan of subdivision hi been changed during the past twelve months so as to make it in harmony with the plan of the city. Qn the Woodley road there is Cleveland ! Heights and adjoining it and fronting also on the Tenleytown road is the subdivision of Oak View. To the north on the Tenleytown road | is Armsley Heights and Tenley Heighta. To | the south 1s Tunlaw Heights and on the Ridge jand Tunlaw roads to the north is Wesley | Heights, this latter subdivision being separated | from the grounds of THE NEW METHODIST UNIVERSITY | by the Ridge road. Still further to the west and north on the Conduit road ia the subdivis- ion known as the Palisades of the Potoma Mr. Howell's pencil, which had been employ: | im pointing out these new subdivisions, here | | passed over the map to the Brightwood road or | avenue, where, om the east side between the | village of Brightwood and the subdivision of Petworth,a large teaet of land bas been divided into building sites. Still further to the east- | ward, where the hnes of the city streets hi been carried out to Takoma Park, » subdivision | has been made of the land between the Blair roadand Piney Branch road and across the road from Takoma. Thence going south along the Metropolitan Branch and then to the west a tract of land has been subdivided which lies north of the grounds of the Soldiers’ Home. Further south there is the subdivision of University Heights near Brookland. Along 4th et east extended, ington railroad, the land between the Catholic University grounds and Eckington has been pretty well subdivided, Here may be found the subdivisions of the Rose and Davidge properties aud of # portion of Edgewood. On the Washington Branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad Mr. Howell indieated the subdivisions of Montello, Win- throp Heights, Avalon Heights and MeGowan's subdivision and # subdivimon of the old Clark Mills place. Crossing the Eastern branch the lines for the extgnsion of South Cavitol street to the Dis- trict bounds have been surveyed and that street will be opened when the proposed bridge across the Eastern branch bas been built. To the east and south of the intersection of the Hamilton rowd and Nichols avenue is the sub- division of Congress heights, The Anacostia road has been straightened and widened to 120 feet and is now known as Minnesota avenue, Fronting on this avenue and the Good Hope road Messra, Weller & Repetti have made a subdivision. Pennsylvania avenue extended east is being graded to the Good Hope road, and along this avenue extended lies a large tract of land receutly purchased by asyndicate, | which is being subdivided. Stil further in & | northeasterly direetion along Minnerota ave- nue is the subdivision of Easton, through which Massachusetts avenue extended passes, This completes the journey which a Star man took with Mr. Howell as his pencil trav- eled over the suburban section of the map of the city and the latter pointed out the subdi- visions which had becn made during the past year, As it may be seen the activity has been quite uniform in all sections. AN ARCHITECT'S HOME, While the present building season bas not been especially marked by the ereetiun of fine residences, still quite a number are being built and plans for othersarebeing made. A notable residence will be the one which Mr. T. Schneider, the architeet, is about to begin. Mr. Schneider owns the entire south front of Q | street between 17th and lath streets—800 feet in leugth, and intends soon to cover this whole ground with block of very fine houses, but ; Will start at once the erection of a residence on the corner of 18th street, which, judging from the drawings, will bes picturesque home. It | will be built entirely of light stone, in the ro- | manesgue style. The Q street front will be 30 feet wide, and setting back from the 18th street | building line an arcade 10 feet wide will be formed. with twin columns and Roman arches | a length of about 30 feet. The windows of the | second story open out ona long balcony. At | the corner of the house and extending out ding- | onally to the sidewalks of both streets will be a handsome porte cochere of stone. On the Q street front there will be a slight swell bay, with a handsomely carved frieze at the second story. This bay will end at the third floor with | a stone balustrade, and across the front of the third story will bea tier of windows and col- umns. A stone chimney corbels out at one corner and a tower merges from the other, ending in an open observatory with a red tiled root on stone col- umns at each corner. The whole building wil be surmounted with a high, steep roof with heavy overhanging timbered eaves and covered with corrugated tiles of a dull reddish colar, On the 18th street side huge chimney tops will {grow out of these caves. At the end of the arcade on the 18th street sides square bay window will arise to the third floor, ending with a stene balustrade, the front then instead of having the typical gable will have a stone battlement extending above the roof and re- turning arouud the rear corner of the building against @ chimney. Over this bay colamas | will assist in forming a pretty ia. The din- ing room will form a feature of the exterior as aa the interior of the house, It will be at tne end of the house and will be but one story | bigh, affording an architectural effect not | i i i i ' | often gotten in & city house. It will havea very ateep tiled root » with eaves tending out i t and covering a — en- cans On the corner there will be 2 circular tower, with a conical roof. From the dining j room, back to the alley, the yard will bo in- closed by a stone wall, and on the adjoining lot will be a large stable. On the fronts carv- ing will be used good judgment, The parior will be 13x23 feet amd will be fin- ished in mahogany. The hali will be 1 feet and willbe fintshed in oak, Across one end of this Lall will be the staircase, wisieh, starting with steps 9 feet wide under an oak screen, runs up to a plutiorm or gallery ou which there will be # saak This hail is to be paneled high and will have an oak paneled ceiling with plastie designs in exch panel } The reception room noxt te the ball will be ft shed in mahogany, aud adjoining it will be he dining roora, 18x28 feet, witha ceiling 15 feot pat u ature.

There is, of course, no reason why every one should not know that the park will extend from the Woodley road bridge to the Klingle in- cluding within its bounds «narrow of land on each side at Hock (oer Geet ee two points, But the never did know exactly about the location of the park and those that did know have prob- ably forgotten all about it by thistime. But now everybody who rides or walks out in that vicinity will have s reminder of the e: of the park in the shape of s board fence which is aon hana built to inclose the park. This fence will be seven feet high and in order to deter the small boy from trying to climb over it instead of coming in properly by the en- trances, there will be two rows of barbed wire strung along on top of the fence. The groand comprising the park is now being surveyed by Messrs. Howell and Greenough, civil engi- neers, in accordance with plans Loe td by Mr. Fred Law Olmsted, the celebrated landscape gardener. Mr. Olmsted has been im charge of the Capitol grounds for s number of years past,and has recently been called in asan by the Chicago's world’s tair com- missioner to design s plan for the arrangement of the grounds to be occupied by the exposi- tion buildings. In adopting a plan for the lo- cation of the various ‘ives and walke that will be necessary in the Zoological Park and also the sites of the bufldings for the accom- modation of the animals, Mr. Olmsted has been careful to the natural beanty of the scenery of the park, and bas endeavored to bring the new use for which this picturesque site has been selected in harmony with its natural attractions. Oue of the main entrances will be the old quarry road and the site of the ill be utilized for bear pita, On the opposite side of Rock creek from this place the park has ite greatest width owing to a bend in the creek, and there will be located the houses for the animals and other structures. The old Holt house will be re ed and will be used for office purposes, A bridge is to be built over a a report of his work+ Rock creek at this point, and there will be en- trances to the park from the westand north and in fact from all sides where an approach seoms desirable. The ‘k will probably not be opened to the public before next spring. ——___ AFTER THE REUNION. Commander-in-Chief Veazey Announces His Staff. Gen.

Minister Reid Defends His Country’s Hog—A Word About Fronch Wines. ae | The diplomatic correspondence between the United States amd France on the American hog question has been furnished to the Senate. Our minister, Mr. Reid, makes # very earnest pro- test against the exclusion of American pork from France, contending that the pork raised | in this country is pure and wholesome, there not being as many deat™ from trichinosis ina year as there are deaths from lightning, and even the few deaths oecur only when the pork | ig eaten raw. He urges, with facts and figures to sustain his argument, that it 1s for the com- | mercial interest of France to import American | pork, France, he says, bas lost 26,000,000 france, which would have been paid in duty during the nine years of exclusion, French steamers have been deprived of a valuable line of freight and the country peddlers and grocers have been deprived of a staple and useful trade, and, above all, the people, particularly the poor laboring classes, have been deprived of a cheap and highly-prized article of food, which they used largely, and for which there bas been furnished no adequate substitute, ‘WHAT GooD? He continues: ‘These, then, are some of the things thatthe exclusion of American pork has cost France. In return, what good has it done France? Has it helped the national health? There has been no more disease from eating pork in England or Belgium, where the Ameri- can product is freely used, than in France, where you deprive yourselves of it. Has it helped the French farmer? He can sell the swine he grows for no more now than he could before the prohibition—not even for as much. Has it helped the consumer? He can buy French pork no cheaper now than before the probibi- tion.” Mr. Reid gives detailed figures in support of of his statements, and, asking who has been benefited by French decrees, answers: “Only the small class of middlemen, who are enabled to exact yet larger profits in’ the absence of American competition, and ofan adequate do- mestie supply at the season of searcity, vin: the summer months.” He argues that to re- turn the old order of things will not injure the French farmer, stating that there is no real competition between French and American por! Then he adds: ‘I have entered upon no word of complaint against your duty on pork, which in late years you have more than doubled, We fix our own duties from our own view of the public ception to your doing the same. But consid- | ering the large advance which you have | already made you will alloy me to suggest | tbat, in our varied experience on this subject, it has been found that lower duties often pro- duce greater revenues than high ones.” ADULTERATED ¥RENCE WINES. Mr. Reid makes a subtle suggestion to France that while uot a rd can be said against the unbealthiness of American pork there is a growing belief that French wines are sadly adulterated. a feeling strengthened by a debate in the French academy of medicine, when this adulteration was acknowledged, He points out that there is a i cessful wine industry in the he concludes: French statesmen, by persistence in what our people think a columniation of our product, to drive American statesmen to listen to French exposures of their own, and to consider | whether, if France still prefers prottibition to duties, the United States has not greater rea- son to do the same. But I refuse to follow that thought. Keenly as we feel the inde- fensible nature of your deores we are most anxious to avoid even a suggestion of possible retaliation." A Boy’s Frightful Fall. From the Denver (Col.) Hows. The son of Mr. J. J. Treat of Manitou was ex- ploring the wonders of Williams’ canon on Fri- day, and as ho was standing on the top of some high rocks his foot slipped and he fell over a precipice between 200 and 250 feet high. The lad received several very bad gashes, but no bones were broken. It is a marvelous thing that be was not killed outright, considering the great distance he fell and the rocky nature of the ground.
