MORE PAVING AND GRADING. Footlight Flashes— Breaking Up a Fonl Nest—Squabble Over Pass- ing Postal Clerks—A Sadly Wrecked Girl, Busy Builders, There is a large aemand for dwelling houses in this city. Never before have small tenements of from four to eight rooms been so scarce as now. Yesterday a ludy entered the Beg office and stated that she had been house hunting for three days; could not find a six or seven room house in the city and thought she might learn of one by applying at a newspaper oflice. There is a grand field for tenements, that is houses that are put together in good shape; those that would rent at from §15 to per month, There is not a real estate office in the city out of the forty odd that do not have daily inquiries for desirable resi- dences for small families. It is true that several persons are on the eve of building a number of houses, but there is room for many more, Many & family is now occupying & small house and paying $15 to for 1t when they would pay $25 or for a house that a few of the modern convenien- ienc nd be more contented. There are fo iy ways to invest money where the retarns 80 great as in building resi- dences to rent in Council Blufls, Nice, small dwellings in this city pay a large futerest on the investment and the build- ing of this class of houses will be the means of compelling the owners of the shells that rent for $20 to $30 per month and that arenct worth, as they stand in many instances more than $3.00 to $5.00, to put up more respectable and tenanta- ble houses. Monied men in the east who can only get a small pe ntage for their money could make fortunes out of small investments if put into desirable houses in this city. ‘L wish I had the capital,” said & gentleman yesterday, who hag just returned from the ‘ne cast, “I'd put up just such a row of dwellings as I'saw in Washington. They are made of ln' sed brick, contain eight rooms each, bath rooms, hot and cold water, stationary ranges and heat- ers, gas, Inside shutters, fine cellars, nice back yards, beautiful lawns, some fifteen feet wide and parking; all this for $20 per month. This row of houses is located on both sides of F street 1n Washington, and 18 called ‘Sherman Row.' 'These houses cost only $2,500 each. If we only had a row here a block long and on one side ot the strect they could be rented for from $30 to $35 per month and would bring in a large interest on the invest- ment. Suchi1s what some enterprising capitalist should erect in this city, and he never would be sorry for the invest- ment. * =y One cannot imagine the amount of activity going onin building unless a drive is taken around the city. The ma- jority of houses now ;imn'uu are of a small nature, principally houses of three to five rooms and ranging in cost from $500 to $1,000. It is estimated by tleman who does a great deal of ri about the city, that at the present time thero aro at tho loact nalenlation 200 houses of this class in course of erection besides some twenty that will cost from $1,500 to §2,000 e-.\ch.' wty A gentleman having occasion to go toward the transfer on & business errand yesterday went down one street and came back on another, and during his walk counted thirty-seven new houses in course of erection.

He has a num- ber of plans not yet matured, of busi- ness houses, blocks and residences. I. M. Hay, ot Mlnnengolis, calculates to build & row of twelve brick flats, also is having plans drawn for another row of seven residences which will go up on Ninth avenue. The latter buildlnqu are to cost $2,500 each. All these buildings are to have all the modern improvements. Mr. Hay also expects to put up five more buildings on ground recently purchased by him, g Many versons beheve that it is very expensive to have an architect draw up plans for a building, when, in fact, & single blunder by a mechanic would pay the entire expense of the architect. An architect’s churfics are 8 per cent of the entire cost of the building for drawing plans and specifications, while for super- tending the erection of the building an extra 3 ger cent is charged, making a total of 5 per cent of the entige cost of the hnildins for plans, specifications and superintending. Many carpenters after contracting for putting up buildings, then go to an architect and have bim draw up plans and specifications from the crude plans furnished by the pros- pective builder. By so doing he saves much time and expense and runs no risk of making blunders. This proves whether or not it pays to have an archi- tect do the work in the first place, and at the same time be enabled to putup a building that has the outward appearance of & home as well a8 inside accommoda- tions desirable to the owner. If more people would consult architects there would not be so many homely appearing houses built.
