NEW BUSINESS DISTRICT NOW DEVELOPING

With the announcement that within
few weeks work on the handsome
new Commercial club building will be
begun in the Newhouse district, comes
the assurance that the decision of the
members of the Commercial club in de-
Gliding on this site for their building
makes the future of this section of the
city as a business district certain This
does not mean that upper Main street
will suffer materially because of the
establishing of new business dis
trict. The probabilities are that the
growth of the town will be sufficient
to warrant an enlarged district.
Situated as it is, the property recent
ly acquired and improved by Samuel
NewhOuse offers a strategic business
value. 1t is located in a block that is
midway between the federal and the
city and county buildings, in a location
that offers a regular avenue of trade
and natural business Importance.
Directly across the street from the
postoffice the Newhouse and Boston
buildings. the twin office buildings
erected by Samuel NeWhouse, are being
pushed to completion. Fronting on EX-
change Place, one of the new streets
constructed by Mr.. NewhOuse, will be
the new Commercial club building,
which viii be completed in another
year. AT the head of Cactus street
and fronting on Exchange Place. will
be the new Mining Exchange, still an
other prospective NeWhouse building
n theatre fronting on State street on
Exchange Place and State is also
planned. A hotel on the corner Of
Fourth South and Main streets will
undoubtedly be built. In all, there are
fifteen buildings which Mr.. Newhouse
plans to erect on his property In the
new business district as rapidly as the
growth of the city warrants.
Two of the most important structures
are nearly completed. These are the
eleven-story Newhouse and Boston
buildings. The steel skeletons are fin
1shed and the stone and brickworlx is
being pushed as rapidly as possible
BY fall the two buildings will be ready
for occupancy. The first floor of the
Newhouse building will be used to
house a banking institution, while a
large dry goods house is to occupy the
first floor of the Boston block 1t is
understood that many of the lawyers
will occupy offices in the Newhouse
building. If this is done, Mr.. Newhouse
plans TO install q large law library in
the building. Until the new Mining
Exchange is built, a large number OF
the large mining companies will have
offices in the Boston block.
Connecting the Newhouse building
with the new Commercial club building
VIII be the NeWhouse extension, four
stories in height. To the rear of this
viii be the power house, which will
generate the light and heat for the
district. Other buildings across the
street, uniform in style with the 9TH
ers of the district, have been planned.
Cactus street and Exchange Place
the streets of the new district, will be
sixty-siX feet wide, paved and lighted.
This done, Mr. Newhouse will present
them TO the city. Exchange Place runs
through the block from Main to State
streets, and is flanked on either side by
valuable Newhouse property. Cactus
street runs from Fourth South street
TO Exchange Pace.

ticket and freight offices Almost ev-
cry office in the entire building has
been already rented.
Farther south on Main street prop
erty values are increasing steadily, and
the business district is likely to extend
at least another block south. Four
hundred feet of Main street frontage
on the east side of the street, from St.
PauPs corner to Fifth South street, is
controlled by the Houston Real Estate
Investment company. On the corner
of Fifth South and Main streets three
small stores have just been built. One
is occupied by Naegle's grocery, an

new district is increasing in value, be-
cause of the outlook for this section of
the business district. One valuable
Main street corner at Fourth South and
Main streets is held by the Kimball
estate, and another by st. Paul's
church. Adjoining the Boston building
on the north is sixty feet of Main
street frontage controlled by the Sails
bury estate 1t has been rumored in
real estate circles that the Salisbury
heirs were TO build a large office build
ing on this ground, but the Salisburys,
themselves, decline to discuss the prop
oSition at this time.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1908-04-12

OF the improved property in the dis
trict, one of the finest pieces is owned
by Mrs. Mary Judge. 1t is the Railroad
Exchange building, which will be COM
pieted within a few weeks. The in
terror finishing has been practically
completed, and by the first of the
month most of the Offices will be ready
for occupancy. On April 26 Colonel l..
A. Benton plans 60 move the local pas
senger department of the Denver &
Rio Grande to the new building. He
will be followed by the freight depart
ment of the same railroad, the Utah
Fuel company and several railway

other by the Cache Valley Sanitary
Milk & Cream depot, and the third by
the Regal dye works.
Still further improvements are
planned on this property. Early this
week crews will start tearing down
three small adobe residences on this
property. These houses are the ones
farthest north in the row of residences
extending south from st. Paufs rec
tory On the site of these residences a
business block will be- built. the size

1t is the intention of Mr. Newhouse

to put in a strict similar to Exchange

FREDERICK. Md, July o7-David
Jones, a negro. was given twenty lashes
on his bare back at the Jail this morn
ing by Sheriff Edward Myers. The SEN
tence was imposed upon him by Justice
of the Peace John Francis Smith for
wife beating, and it is the first time in
fifteen years that a prisoner has been
publicly whipped in Frederick.
After being sentenced to the whipping
post Jones appealed from the decision
of the magistrate. but Judge John c..
Motter of the circuit court sustained
the sentence, holding that under addi-
tional jurisdiction, by an act of the last
general assembly of Maryland. wife
beating was species of assault pun
ishable by whipping.
The sentence was carried out by
Sheriff Myers in an energetic manner.
The prisoner was handcuned and pin
ioned to the iron grating of a cell in a
private part of the Jail, and in the
presence of about fifty spectators the
lashes were vel! laid on. Jones ex-
pressed great satisfaction after the
whipping was over, and. with his back
welted in a number of places, declared
he had enough of the whipping post.
About fifteen years ago d negro was
whipped in Frederick for wife-beating
This punishment had the effect of stop
ping a wave of wife beating prevalent
among negroes. Recently number of
cases have come before the local au-
thorities, and instead of the customary
in Jail Magistrate Smith has decided
to reinstall the whipping post He has
decided to punish by this method all
