There Is a large demand for dwelling
houses in this city. Never before have
small tenements of from four to eight
rooms been so scarce as now. Yesterday
a lady entered the BIE : oflicc and stated
that she hail been house hunting for
three days ; could not find a six or seven
room house in the city and thought she
might learn of ono by applying at a
newspaper oflico. There is a grand field
for tenements , that is houses that are
put together in good shape ; those that
would rent at from $15 to ? ! JO per month.
There is not a real estate oHlce in the
city out of the forty odd that do not have
daily inquiries for desirable resi
dences for Email families. It
is true that several persons
are on the cvo of building a number of
houses , but there is room for many more.
Many a family is now occupying a small
house and paying $15 to $20 for it when
they would pay $ 'J5 or | 80 for a house
tiiat had u few of the modern eonvonien-
icnccs and be more contented. There
arc ff w ways to invest money where the
returns arc so great sis in building resi
dences to rent in Council Bluffs. Nice ,
small dwellings in this city pay a large
interest on the investment and the bullu-
iug of this class of houses will bo the
means of compelling the owners of the
shells that rent for $ ' . ' 0 to ? 30 per month
and thai are ne'e worth , as they stand in
many instances more than $3.00 to $3.00 ,
to put up more respectable and tenantable -
blo houses. Monicd men in the cast who
can only get a small percentage for their
money could make fortunes out of small
investments if put into desirable houses
in this city.
" 1 wish I had the capital , "
said a , gentleman yesterday , vrlio
has , just returned from the
Ino east , "I'd put up just such a row of
Wollings as I saw in Washington. They
re made of pressed brick , contain eight
oems each , have bath rooms , hot and
iold water , stationary ranges and heat-
rs , gas , inside shutters , fine cellars , nice
> ack yards , beautiful lawns , FOUIO fifteen
cct wide and parking ; all this for $20
Mir month. This row of houses is located
on both sides of F street in Washington ,
ind is called 'Sherman Row. ' Tlicso
louses cost only $3,000 each. If wo only
lad a row hero a block long and on ono
side ot thn street they could be rented for
'rom $30 to $35 per month and would
iring in a large interest on the invest
ment. Such is what some enterprising
capitalist should erect in this city , and
10 never would bo sorry for the invest
ment.
*
*
One cannot imagmo the amount of
activity going on in building unless a
Irivo is taken around the city. The ma
jority of houses now going UP are of a
small nature , principally houses of three
: o live rooms and ranging in cost from
P."i00 to $1,000. It is estimated by a gen
tleman who docs a great deal of riding
ibout the city , that at the present time
.hcto are l tUa la out r > ; ilr.ll Intion ItOO
IOUSCH of this class in course of erection
besides some twenty that will cost from
$1,500 to $2,000 each.
*
A gentleman having occasion to go
toward the transfer on a business errand
yesterday wont down ono street and
came back on another , and during his
walk counted thirty-seven new houses in
course of erection.

to cost $2,500 each. All these buildings
are to have all the modern improvements.
Mr. Hay also expects to put up five more
buildings on ground recently purchased
by him.
Many persons believe that it is very
expensive to have an architect draw up
plans for a building , when , in fact , a
single blunder by a mechanic would pay
the entire expense of the architect. An
architect's charges are 3 per cent of the
entire cost of the building for drawing
plans and specifications , while for super
intending the erection of the building an
extra 3 per cent is charged , making a
total of 5 per cent of the ontito cost of
the building for plans , specifications and
superintending. Many carpenters after
contracting for putting up buildings ,
then go to an architect and have mm
draw up plans and specifications from
the crude plans furnished by the pros
pective builder. By so doing ho saves
much time and expense and runs no risk
of making blunders. This proves
whether or not it pays to have an archi
tect do the work in the first place , and at
the same time be enabled to put up a
building that has the outward appearance
of a homo as well as inside accommoda
tions desirable to the owner. If more
people would consult architects there
would not bo so many homely appearing
houses built. _ _ _ _ _

Street Improvements.
The now city icouncil starts in with an
enthusiastic- determination to have the
streets greatly' Jtuprovcd this season.
Council bluffs has already done more pav
ing , sewering and work of that kind than
any other city of its size in the west , and
yet there is more to follow. Fourth street
is now ordered curbed , parked and pared
from Broadway to Eleventh avenue.
This is ono of thj most important im
provements of the year , and the order is
made in accordance with tbo petition of
the property owners , who are eager to
have it done. Tup cross streets between
Fourth and Main streets are also to bo
paved. The paving will bo with cedar
blocks. ) „ ! >
The grade of * lower Broadway being
agreed to , the filling and paving of tnat
street clour to ttio river will bo speedily
finished. This is another great enterprise.
Portions of Ninth and Tenth streets ,
and Sixth and Seventh avenues have been
ordered tilled to grade. Avenue A is also
ordered lilled to grade from the eastside
of Eighth street to the west side of
Eleventh htreet , and Eighth , Ninth and
Teuth streets from Broadway to ave
nue A.
Sewers have been'ordered on First ave
nue , Fifth avenue and on Eighth street ,
besides other sewers heretofore ordered.
Mynstor street Is to bo paved trora
Main to Eighth street , together with the
cross streets to Broadway.
Glen avenue is to bo paved from Broad
way to the reservoir.
Washington avenue is to bo paved
from First to Second street.
The property-owners are in all these
casus urging the work , being willing to
tand the suc-ciul assessment.
Some of the Chicago people seem to
think that the trousers of the day are
