Character of the Demand.

Some people are of the opinion who are
watching the growth of the city that peo-
pie are building too carelessly and that the
houses going up are not as substantial and
enduring as was once the case There Is
no doubt that a goodsdeal of what is called
cheap building is going on and that 1t will
continue, as there is a demand for it. What
seems to suit the average house buyer of
today is exactly what men who are in the
building business aim to supply, and fall
ure TO do that would mean that their houses
would go without purchasers
If people want for $1,000 or 5000 house
that In it's fittings and size would cost, IL
built In a substantial manner at least
twice as much, or say, one-half again as
much. and men are willing to provide such
houses, there can be no cause for COM
plant. If two houses representative of the
two sorts of buildings were placed side by
side with their prices attached there is per-
hapS no doubt where the choice of the
house purchaser would fall.

A Good Deal for the Money.

However, there is doubt that people
are getting more for their money when they
put 1t in the modern house than was the
case some years ago. The building of
houses in large numbers at one time en-
ables certain economies to be practiced in
the purchase of material and in the saving
of labor that is to the advantage of the
purchaser. In this way it Is possible to
get better house for the money than In
any other way.
This fact is evidently being appreciated
here for at no time in the history of the
city has the buying of homes been more
general than is the case at present. There
Is no form of material activity that is more
substantial than this one, and the additions
that are being made to the home owning
population is an enlargement of the assets
of the city to a degree that can hardly be
aunreciated.

tween P and Q streets for the Fowler es-
tate They will have a frontage of 621a feet
and will be two stories in height. The up
per floors will be fitted up for use as apart

Maryland and Virginia Property.

Baker, millionaire grain broker of New

to retire from active business and devote
himself to farming and the recreation that
one finds in country life.
1t is the opinion of Mr.. Parish that while
the colonial atmosphere" is attractive to
many of the buyers of southern mansions
and landed estates, it is the climate that
attracts northern and western people more
than any other feature. Loudouu, Fauquier
and other nearby counties both in Virginia
and Maryland are made still more attrac-
tive to gentlemen farmers owing to the
close proximity to Washington, where the
social and other attractions break the mo-

In the Court of Love.

The grave problem of matrimony-
grave for the unmarried, still graver
for the married-is opened under a
new and troubous aspect by the keen
remarks of a magistrate of New York
who has the fortune to be known as
the happy little Judge" Like all
philosophers, says the Chicago Post,
the happy little judge is the wiser be
cause he is unconcerned. He has
reached the haven, if not the port, of
widowerhood. From these calm wa
ters he launches his torpedo against
the Haunting craft of single bliss. He
declares that nine out of every ten
men over 80 years of age brought be.
fore him are unmarried. Marry young,
he admonishes. Few single men are
truly great. All men who wish to sue
ceed should marry.

ROCKY FORD MELONS.
Great Preparations Making for Water
melon Day.

Donver-Senator George w. Swink,
the Nestor of Arkansas valley agri-
culture, and Mr. George Hail, secretary
of the board of trade of Rocky Ford,
were in the city yesterday in consulta-
ton with Col. J. p. Hall Of the Santa
Fe regarding arrangements for Water
melon Day celebration.
The famous feast occurs September
9Th this year, and it is beliesed the
arrangements agree it to be the biggest
of all the events Special trains will
be run from Denver, Trinidad and
eastern Kansas. The visitors report
the melon crops finer this year than
ever. Canteloupes have been shipped
out by express for some days, but the
first Rocky Ford shipments went out
yesterday. The melon crop is ten days
late this year owing to the wet, cold
spring.
The hot weather of late mas ripened
them fast and the shipments will con
tinuc from now on until the frOsts cut
the vines off. The quality of melons
this year is unusually fine and there is
a large crop, although the acreage
planted now is not as large as for
merly, many ranchmen preferring to
turn their land into sugar beet cultiva-
ton. There will be an abundance of
both watermelons and cantaloupe for
the feast day.

hundred will file the 6rst day, and
the number will gradually increase.
The names of the persons as they have

the list for that day, and if he then
fails to answer to the call of his name
he will be dropped from the list en-
tirely. This will continue until the

Sd for that purpose, when the land Of
flee will be brought back to Lander.

building to Lander, and now is within
less than thirty-fve miles. 1t will

WILL BUY SILVER
GOVERNMENT RESUMES PUR-

BULLION TENDERS INVITED
Stock Of Bullion Exhausted More
Than Year Ago-Has Bought No
Silver for Thirteen Years-Price
Will Probably Rise.

Than Year Aso-Has Bought No
Silver for Thirteen Years-Price
Will Probably Rise.
Washington.-For the first time in
thirteen years the government an
nounces it's purpose to purchase silver
for coinage purposes. Tenders are in
vited at the office of the director OF
the mint in this city on Wednesday, the
18th inst, up to l O'Clock p. m, and ev-
cry Wednesday thereafter until further
notice. These tenders are to be for
delivery at the Philadelphia, New Or
leans or Denver mints, settlement to be
on the New York basis OF bullion
guaranteed 999 fine.
The average requirements of the
treasury throughout the year will prob
ably not exceed 100000 ounces per
week, and it will be the policy of the
department, while keeping a reasonable
amount in hand, to so distribute its
purchases throughout the year that its
demand will be uniform and not an
element of uncertainty IN the market.
The stock of bullion in the treasury
was exhausted more than year ago,
and since then no bullion has been
available for the subsidiary use.
The stock in the treasury had be-
come SO low that it was apparent. ac-
cording to the department that the de-
mands of a constantly enlarging trade
could not be met without additional
coinage.
The United States government has
been in the past an important factor in
the silver market. In preparing for
the resumption of specie payments and
the redemption of the fractional paper
currency issued during and following
the Civil War, it began in January.
1875, a series of purchases ending in
February, 1878, which aggregated 3D.
Coz, 905 fine ounces, which cost $3757l,-
l4S in gold, or an average of S1.1SS per
fine ounce.
The next appearance of the govern
ment in the silver market was under
the Blaud-Allison act of February 2S,
1878. The first purchase under this act
was made at S1.21 SIG per fine ounce,
and the total expenditure for bullion
under this act was $30S, ,279 200. The
total amount of bullion required was
291 ,272, ,01S fine ounces, or an average
price for the whole of $l.O5S.
The Bland-Allison act was succeeded
by what is popularly known as the
Sherman act, approved July IA, 1890,
which enlarged the purchases of the
government to 4,5O0,00O ounces per
month. The total purchases under
this act amounted to 1GS GA, ,GS2 fine
ounces, costing $153 ,931, 500, or an av-
erage of SO924 per ounce.
The last purchase under the act OF
1890, made on October 50, 1898, was at
72 cents per ounce. From that date
until the present the government has
been out of the market for the pur-
chase of silver expect as the agents of
the Philippine government in the pur
chase of 13,5OO,O 900 ounces, costing ST.
37G,995, or an average of SAY cents.
The lowest price for silver was
touched on December 3, 1902, when the
price on the London market was equiv
alent to O.47S per fine ounce; the aver
age for last year on the London mar
liet was Gl cents per ounce, and for
the month of July last, &C cents per
ounce.
