very talented and very handsome.

gedian. He will no doubt become > great
favorite.
Mrs. S. A. Austen, from Barnum's
Museum, New York, is one Of the best per-
senators Of "Old Women that ever played
in the great metropolis, and is far superior
as an actress to any that ever played here.
Carme Aiken, the "Chambermaid" Of
the company, is pronounced by the eastern
press to be "a most charming actress, de-
lin btf,l op1 hho vxn m
on the American STAGE We have no hes
itation in predicting that she will create q
sensation

Miss HELEN Howe, the "Walking Lady,"
is young, very pretty, and talented. We

Cry IMpRoyEMETs.-In yesterdays issue
We noticed the valuable improvements
which Mr.. Joseph Shields designs to make
in his fourishing woolen factory, in the
upper part ofahc city. Had we the space
we could append long list Of similar en-
terprising projects, but We are compelled
to notice only few of the most important
ones in the business center Of our young
metropolis.
We took tramp down Harrison street
this morning. J. NJ. d. Burrows has been
making some improvements in his grist
mills, at the corner Of Harrison and Fifth,
which are worthy of note lie has increas-
ed his establishment to double it's former
capacity, by substituting brick smoke
stack in the place Of the old sheet iron one;
by adding two additional boilers to his en-
gne room, . new cleaning apparatus for the
boiling Of flour ind meal, and every mod
ern improvement for doing the greatest pos
sible amount of work in the Shortest time.
Near the corner Of Fourth and Harrison,
j. Thomson is erecting two story brick
building, eighty feet by forty-nine, for a
grain warehouse, and will have it compile
ted and be ready for the opening of bust.
ness in three weeks.
Near the corner Of Third and Harrison,
J. G. Birkel is erecting two story brick
building FOR the purpose Of store rooms be-
low and dwellings, above, and will have it
completed in two weeks.
As every body knows, Brady street has
been improving rapidly Of late. The new
building Of Seig & Meyers, connecting
Farrand's and Perry's blocks, gives tina;
throughfare quite metropolitan air. II
would row Le very desirable if capital and
enterprise could be found to clear away
fire breeding structures between CONNER
cial Alley and the National Bank, and re-
place them by substantial brick block
The demand for commodious sale rooms
would amply compensate whoever would
take the matter in hand.
Mcknight & Hanna are also putting up .
brick building on Brady below Fifth, which
will bc thirty six feet by forty, and two
stories high. Two store rooms will be be-
low and dwelling rooms above.
Throughout the city the sidewalks are
being repaired and many Of the streets ma.
cadamized.
The demand for tenement houses was
never greater in our city than At the pres
ent time. Never before were inducements
so powerful held out to capitalists to build.
An ordinary. respectable tenement house
commands dozen applicants 1t any time
that it may be vacated; yet let no. this
fact deter those from coming to our city
who would wish to reside here. There is
an abundance of capital lying idle. which
can and will be used for the benefit Of the
public. Laborers can easily find steady
and nrmerative employments, while eve
ry mechanic is prospering. Especially are
carpenters and bricklayers needed. Their
services are in constant demand. and those
who need them have the money to pay
them.
Davenport is going ahead. Every one
sees and appreciates this fact. Business
men seeking locations should make . note
Of this and act accordingly. Mechanics,
capitalists and laborers are needed and
should loose no time IN getting to our
city.
