BARBER RESIDENCE
PLACED ON MARKET
Belmont" Long Show Place of
Capital, to Give Way to Mod
ern Improvements.

Belmont" the beautiful home of the
late A. L. and Mrs. Barber, at Four
teenth and Clifton streets northwest.
overlooking the city from the brow OF
Columbia Heights, which for nearly
thirty years has been one Of the show
residence places Of Washington, is like
ly soon to be destroyed to make way
for a block of residences, a row OF
apartment houses or for some other
similar purpose.
A large for sale" sign has been
placed in the wooded grounds about the
house by the Washington Loan and
Trust Company at the order of the
Barber heirs, who are not residents Of
this city. The home was built at a
cost of $4,000 by AMI l.. Barber about
thirty years ago, when at the height
of his success with the Venezuelan
asphalt industry. 1t has been used
since as the residence place of his
family. There is none now. since the
recent death of Mrs. Barber, to occupy
1t and efforts are being made to dis
pose of the property.
The house Is a handsome one of stone
and stands in the midst of a fine grove
of old oak trees. The grounds are
among the most extensive surrounding
any Washington residence, having a
frontage of $50 feet on Clifton street
and 800 feet on Fourteenth, with q total
area Of 170,673 square feet.

new RECORD SET
BY H|GHVEW FOR
REALTY DEALERS
In One Year 214 Houses Are
Erected and 18O Sold
in Northeast.

A record for a years house building
and selling was set today by Harry
Wardman, builder. and Shannon &
Luchs. real estate agents, in the opera
ton known as Highyiew.
Just year ago the first few rows of
this operation, which when completed
Will have 900 houses, were put on the
market by Shannon & Luchs. To date
lSo have been sold out of the 2l4 erected.
No other operation in the history Of
speculative house building in Washing
ton has approached the magnitude and
speed of this one. .-... .. ..r..s ..
A year ago there was such a rush for
the new homes that forty-three sales
were made in the first two days, after
they were put upon the market. Sales
continued rapidly, and, as a result,
about 100 purchasers were forced to
wait for the builder to complete their
homes before they could occupy them.
Profiting by this experience the realty
men arranged with the builder to have
a number of houses ready for the Sep
tember market this year. Thirty-four
are now completed and ready to be
turned over to purchasers without de-
lay.
These houses have been sold at prices
ranging between $500 and 5000, but
the average sale has been around $500
The houses are nearly all six-room, two
story, colonial brick dwellings. A few
contain eight rooms.
The property upon which this large
addition to the city's residence section
Is being built was bought about eight
cen months ago by Mr.. Wardmun. 1t
was then an unimproved and ursubdi-
vided tract of ground known as High
view. Soon after purchasing, the
builder subdivided ii into ten squares
and the whole was laid out uniformly
as to width OF streets and grades, SO
that the whole section when completed
might be a unified whole.
Highview is located at Rhode Island,
just a square east of North Capitol
street, and forms the sumE,it Of a hill
at that Point. The ground slopes away
from tSe Subdivision on all sides. U
street IN this subdivision is sixty-five
feet higher than the next street, T,
while the intersection of Summit street
and Rhode Island avenue is fifty feet
higher than the intersection of the ave-
nue. and North Capitol street, two
squares away.
with two-thirds of the whole oper-
alton az planned now completed, Mr..
wardmal will continue tho building
until the 800 are finished and sold. AL.
the ground then available in this high
section will have been improved with
these modern six-room dwellings.

Insurance Rates Reduced.

The State Insurance Commission,
composed of NJ. c. Clay, of Mt.
Sterling, chairman; Ruby Laffoon,
of Madisonville, and n. o. Gray,
of Kuttawa, last Saturday announc-
ed new insurance rates for kentuc-
Ky on residence and contents, a re-
duction of something like 81 per
cent: belRg made. Rates hereafter
will be on a basis In line with those
charged by other states, many of
which have for several years had
such commissions to regulate the
charges for fire protection. One of
The best features of the law is that
with the reduction of rates the com
panies will more n closely scyatipize
the nsks, ,hls State having been
ane of the greatest sufferers from
fire losses on account of the general
practice of over ipsuFiRg property.
The commission is at work on a
schedule for mercantile risks, and it
is certain there will be a material
reduction secured in this Iiae, also:
