P. Barrett.


Not In many branches Of industrial pur
suits has such progress been made as in
the construction of vehicles. With the
improvements of mechanical skill, some
thing akin to perfection has been at
tanned in this department of productions.
This fact is prominently shown In this
city in a marked degree by p. Barrett,
who has made rapid strides during the
past five years, in bringing up the bust
ness to perfection. The city is full OF his
handsome productions, and his shops are
continually filled with orders for work IN
all of its branches.
Mr.. Barrett has Just returned from the
north where he spent some time IN
familarizing himself with the methods OF
building all the new designs OF vehicles
which have been brought out lately. lie
has purchased full equipment of saws
and boring machinery, by the use of
which he is enabled to turn out
the framework of any pattern
of vehicles in short space
of time and at the least possible cost 1t
is interesting to see thisimproved machin-
cry in operation, ana MIR. Barrett takes
pleasure in exhibiting their workings to
his customers. He is now engaged in
building two vehicles, the like of which
was never seen in Savannah. They are
the very latest style of pattern, and will
attract considerable attention when com
pleted One is bread wagon and one a
wagonette.
Besides building new vehicles, Mr. Bar
rett rebuilds and repairs them at short
notice at the very lowest price for first
class work. He employs the best skilled
blacksmiths, wheelwrights, painters and
trimmers, and has every facility TO turn
out a superior class of work. He makes
horseshoeing a speciality. His establish
ment is at 80 West Broad street.

sued by the clerk of council; this work
having been done by special permit of
council as was considerable other work.
IN THE SOUTHERN SECTION.
The greater part of the building has
been in the residence section and largely
in the southern section of the city; a
great deal of it has been in the section
south of Bolton street and east of Bull.
More residences have been built in that
section than in any part of the city. Some
of them are of pretentious character
but the majority are dwellings ranging
from 81 900 to $1,000.
The building has been principally of
wood. Very few brick residences have
been erected within the last few years
except in the fire limits within which the
ordinances prohibit frame buildings and
even there a number Of frame houses have
found their way by technical evasion of
the ordinance.
The public building upon which work
has been progressing for the last two or
three mon chs has employed and will give
employment to more labor than any build
ing in the city. The Wilcox " Gibbs
Guano Co. S building on Bay street, at
the foot of Whitaker street, and the
Brush Electric Light and Power Com
pauy's new building on Indian and River
streets have kept many men employed.
These buildings are now practically COM
pleted.
The contractors and builders are look
ing for an active season from now on. A
good deal of remodeling is now in progress
more than has been done in any pre-
vious year known This is due to the
tendency to moderniZe residences. The
style of a quarter of a century ago and
more is now back number in archictec-
Jure, and to keep pace with the march Of
improvement and the demand to be in
style in residences, as well as III other
things makes work for the builder.
THE DEMAND FOR SMALL HOUSES.
Besides the large number of residences,
there has been within the last few
months stir in tenement building. With
all this there is still demand for moder-
ate priced houses, renting for from $50 to
$50 month. ANY number of these, if at
tractiyely and conveniently built, could
be rented as rapidly as they are com
pleted. The demand is for cheaper
houses. People are not paying the rents
they did few years ago, and are moving
| from larger into smaller and more cenve-
nient houses further out in the southern
and eastern suburbs of the city. Land
| lords who rented houses a few years
ago at $40 month. find it difficult
and in many instances impossible to rent
the same houses now for S35, and fire.
| ouently for $50. The rents of to-day are
! much less than those of ten years ago, or
! even less than that. All of this tends 10

OF doing business is the
cause of our success. We
startedwith the determine
ton of doing therlght thing
by Everybody under every
circumstance. It's ju s t
this: Public confidence
won for us a large patron
age, and to-day we can
compete in low prices for
reliable goods with any
clothing establishment in
the south. We established
a lone price, plain figure
system and stuck to it.
The price was always low
enough to suit the entire
season. We did not mark
goods "out of sight" at the
beginning of the season,
expecting to get the cream
of the trade during the
early rush, and then knock
off prices later on. We
simply marked the goods

ming, and we did not have
Job lots left over. Our selec-
lions are made to suit our customers.
We have facilities for doing business

partments, feeling confident that we
will be able to please everybody.
