IMPROVEMENT
Is the Order ofthe Day IN CoIum-
5us. New Buildings Going
Up all Over the City.

Few people perhaps realize how
rapidly Columbus has improved
within the past two years or
how many buildings have been
constructed during that time, and
what is still more satisfactory,
the improvement continues and
new buildings are going up on
every hand, For a long time our
progress consisted mostly in the
erection of cottages snd other
small structures in the outskirts
of the city, and in the business
center there was nc evidence
whatever of growth, but the tidal
wave Of prosperity has at last
reached the center of the city and
h an d s me and commodious
structures have been erected on
our principal streets.
To begin with, the new city hall,
which is a magnificent structure,
has been completed, and the post
office, which occupies the east
half of the lower floor, has al |
ready been moved into the build
ing, and the executive offices of
the city will be occopied by the
various officials as soon as the
furniture, which has already been
ordered, arrives. Besides these
offices provision is made in the
new building for the armory of
the Columbus Riflemen and for
quarters for the public library.
Cement walks flank the structure
on two sides. and on each side of
the main entrance there will be
attractive flower plots.
Another building which is very
attractive in appearance is the
one which has recently been
erected by Messrs. Puckett &
Cheatham at the corner of South
Second avenue and Fourth street.
The second story of this building
has been nicely fitted up as a
hotel and has been leased to Mrs.
M. A. Culpepper, while the first
floor provides excellent accom-
modations for a large general
store.
Mr.. Chas. Sherrod, who has
done much towards the advance
ment of Columbus during recent
years, has recently erected three
commodious brick store houses
on South Market street, and
Capt. G. A. Johnston has had a
new front put in the building on
West Main street formerly occu-
pied by w. B. Williams. This
building h a boen leased 0
Messrs. r. A. Mullins C Co.,
who will occupy it after the first
of September.
Besides these, many other
small buildings have been erect
ed aud still others are being rem
ovated and repaired. The freight
depot of the Mobile and Ohio
railroad being among the number
that have undergone extensive
repairs. The building has been
and now presents a
neat and attractive appearance.

POLITICS IN NEW YORK
IT'S a Great Mix-Up and tie Mix Promises

New York, Oct. 3.-Action looking

FAYAL- WORK.
Al Beautiful Combination OF Drawn

Beautiful Combination OF Drawn
Work and = Darned In Design.
Fayal work is done by the most beau
tiful kind Of drawn work known. In
the Mexican drawn work the pattern
IS made by drawing out threads oft the
fabric; in Fayal work the background
is made by drawing out threads to
form small squares, and the pattern Is
then darned in. The Fayal work is no
more difficult than the Mexican, and
when once the foundation is learned
becomes very fascinating.
For simple pattern take a piece OF
linen and measure three inches from
the edge; draw three threads and hem
stitch across the linen and down one
side. / suggest butcher linen for a
learner, as the threads are easily drawn
and the work is coarse and plain tt
see. Of course the most beautiful
work is that done on the finest linen.
When the hemstitching is done &C
across again, cutting every other hem
stitch and drawing out the threads
Then go across the end in the same
way. This will leave a. network OF
small squares. A stitch must be taker

in each corner Of each square to hold
all in place. and then we have the
foundation on which to darn the pat
tern.
The pattern consists of convention
al stem with leaves, running horizon
tally across the work. To make the
stem, commence at the twelfth square
from the cloth, darn across three squares
by taking stitch in each side Of each
square. Now darn diagonally upward
through three more; now horizontally
across through three; now diagorally
downward through three: then across;
then upward; then across; then down
ward, and continue in this way till the
farther side is reached.
The leaves are made adjoining each
horizontal portion of the stem, the first
one running downward and the second
upward. Darn vertically through two
squares, then three, then four, then
five, then four, then three, then two,
and the leaf is made. Finish the edge
by buttonholing squares on the edge to
form scallops, cutting out the squares
that are not needed after the button
boiling is done.
This pattern is very effective in a
centerpiece, and, reduced, can be made
into an exquisite border for handker-
chief. Done on fine linen it makes a
dainty edge for a turnover collar
