NEW BUILDINGS,
If ever people exhibited their faith by
their works, the citizens of Livingston are
doing that same through the number and
permanent character of new buildings
now in process of erection. The First
National bank has the foundation for a
handsome brick and stone business block,
25x80, four stories high with tall tower
and Illuminated clock. This building is
at the corner of Park and Second streets.
By the side of this the foundations of two
buildings are already laid; these build
ings will be 25x7O, three stories nigh, of
Livingston brick and stone. One of them
is being erected by D. E. Fogarty, the
other by Mr.. Donnelly. I. Orschel u Bro.
have nearly completed fine brick store
building, fronting on Park street near the
corner of Main street. E. r. Dean Co.,
are erecting a brick store building on
Main street 25x70. Fl. Frank and Major
Pearce are also erecting brick business
buildings. F. II. Porter has nearly
completed a two-story wooden build
ing that shows handsomely. n. Z.
Matthiesson has in progress block of
three stores; G. T. Chambers & Co. a
building for the accommodation of their
large hardware business; these are but a
portion of the buildings in progress; resi-
dences are springing up in various parts
of the city, in the Riverside addition, Park
addition, Palace addition, etc., and yet the
universal testimony is that the
demand for business and residence prop
erty greatly exceeds the present supply. A
business lot on Main street, near the post
Office, 80 feet front By 40 deep, sold on
Monday for $1,25O cash, and the pur-
chaser could have made handsome
premium upon his purchase had he chosen
to accept it.
SOCIAL LIFE.
The settler in new bern town does not
expect and does not find the range of So
cial advantages that older settlements
afford, but somewhat critical investiga-
ton reveals, the truth that Livingston, for
its months, (not years. really has SUI
perior position in this regard. There is
no community whatever without its per
cent of vagabonds, From the small ham,
let to the great metropolis none are ex
empt from these blemishes. Human ma
ture is the same wherever found. 1t
has its nobilities and its weakness
es, but balancing as iudiciously
as may be the lights and shades, and there
is found fair and even large preponder-
ance showing the better inspirations that
aoorn the most benefcent side of life and
society.
