pers and decorator, No. 524 Thirteenth street:
For those who can afford it, there is a beau
tifully artistic departure in the way of pressed
friezes this fall. The new design is one OF
flowers and other devices, but the chief nov-
city is the blending of tints. A dark cloud
begins at the bottom and seems to fade away
az it reaches the top of the frieze, where the
colors are delicate. 1t is a very charming
effect. There are few very radical changes in
styles OF wall papers,

more active now than they have been for

WILLIAM CLINEDNsT, PHOTOGRAPHER,
Eighth street and Market space: electricity
is destined to work as complete a revolution
in the Photographic art as it has in the vari-
GUS other branches to which its wonderful
current has been devoted. Not only can we
operate by the new light producer. but we
can also print by it. Some wonderfully fine
effects in light and shade and sharp impress
sions are possible. In fine, photography, al
though it has made tremendous strides dur
ing late years, is an art capable OF far greater
development, and it seems to me that cleo
tricity is the agent which will be employed" :"

scarce this year. Pears are plenty and
cheaper than year ago, but good peaches
are scarce and dear. The Delaware crop was

EDITOR TIMES: A short time ago, being de-
sirous of visiting some of the scenes of war
times, I passed through Alexandria, Va, en-
route to the battle-flelds of Bull Run, etc, and
was very agreeably surprised at the vast i'm
proyements introduced since thirty years ago
The car boarded at the ferry, trolley car
think it was, equaled in appointments any
thing have seen in either the old world or
the new, and what particularly struck my eye
OF passing car was a wi-e network around
the car. Inquiry of the conductor of the ear
was riding on elected the information that
it was a car wheel fender. and explained that
between the network and car were springs
that in combination with the network threw
off all distractions, no matter how light or
how heavy, without any seeming injury.
In looking over the columns of The TIMES
of this Saturday morning an article about a
car fender attracted my attention and called
to remembrance what had seen in Alexan-
dria, Va, few weeks ago. Now, ] think il
would be good idea for the authorities OF
the District to investigate it. At the time 1
saw the car fender did not think Of asking

1 wish to state that am in receipt of the
communication alluded TO in reply 10 my COM
plant about misplaced fire hydrants in this
block Seventeenth street between Gales street
and Benning's road), but it contains no such
information.
Inasmuch as inte nd to enter suit against
the District should the established grade or
footwaIk width be changed, you will, trust,
allow me space to state my grievance.
On March 10, 1892, by order of the Engineer
Commissioner, l received q diagram giving
the fills to bring up this block TO the estab-
liShed grade. At an expense of about S65
had the street raised TO nearly the established
grade. have also built two houses with bay
windows that would extend over two-thirds
OF the sidewalk should the grade be changed.
Moreover, the shade trees would all have to
be removed.
do not question the right of the Commits
sioners to establish grades according to the
topography Of different sections or the gen
eral plan of survey. but | do question their
right to change established grades and de-
preciate the value of abutting property on
account of a careless mistake in placing two
fire hydrants eighteen inches too deep and
three feet six inches in from the curO line.
Before building the houses referred to | in
quired of the Engineer Commissioner if any
change was anticipated in the grade or width
OF sidewalk (1215 feet, and was informed
that the established grade would remain as it
was, likewise the width of the footwalk. and
upon presentation OF the diagram sent with
this information, the permits for the bay win
dows alluded to were issued by order OF In
