They will at once commence the erection of » number of cottages in North Kensington. ‘The North Kensington Real Estate Company, of which Mr. John Ridout of Washington is president, are improving the streets of this ad- dition. “Mr. Dudley hus just broken ground for three new houses in Kensington Park. Mr. H. Warner's new house is nearly ready for the roof, and with its tower and first story of Halpine granite will be one of the finest houses in Montgomery county. ‘The county commissioners are considering & proposition to open a road to the northern entrance of the new National Park, which will be about a mile and a half from Kensington station and make a most beautifal drive. Messrs Alfred Ray, Dunlop, Jones and Welch have offered to donate the necessary ground for this purpose. A new road will also be opened to connect with the Connecticut avenue extension. Last ovcning a large and enthusiastic meet- ing was held at the honse of Mrs. Henry Martin and an organization was formed to erect Presbyterian church. An executive commit- tee was appointed as follows: Messrs. Warner. Flournoy, Kinnear, Dr. Lewis, Thomas, Martin and Maneke. Plans will be procured and the building commenced at once. Donations to the amount of $1,500, besides the lot, were re- ported. ‘The Baltimore and Ohio reilroad are as slow as usual in completing their station and fixing ‘up, the grounds adjoining. The National Debating Society has been formed, and as it will diecuss such questions as are interesting to the Farmers’ Alliance and silver men considerable excitement will be furnished onr quiet town. Mr. Chas. Ford and wife will spend the month of July here. We need a good hotel here snd it could be easily filled by parties who are now disap- pointed at not getting accommodations.
