NEWS OF THE BUSY
BRICK-VENEER IS POPULAR
HOME
Style of Construction that is Coming
' Much Into Vogue.
OMAHA ADOPTS PLAN READILY
Many Iloa.ra Already Conat rnctrd of
ConiblaatluH Pram and Brick
and Many Hemodelrd Aloau;
Tbs l.lura. .
A method of construction -of dwelling
houses In Omaha which la finding: consid-t-rablu
favor tit the eyes of home builders,
and particularly in thu eyes of those who
want u moderately priced house as well aa
one that looks well and wrura satisfactorily
for tli'.i amount of money that hus been
expended lit Its construction, Is the house
of veneer brick. It la a simple, matter 'o
build a house of this kind. There is nothing
to do but proceed aB thouKh a frame house
was to b constructed. When the frame
work is up, and thn rough boards nailed
on unl the weather paper tacked to the
boards, a course of brick Is built up con
forming to the shape of the house frame
work. The masons drive spikes Into the
framework every few courses of brick, ao
aa to give the narrow masonry a stable
hold on the solid framework. After the
mortar has set, the framework and the
masory are held together aa solidly as
though It was all one wall of goodly thick,
ness. '
Tho weather paper gives warmth to the
house, and more than anything the nar
row tipiii-e between the brick and tho
franywork affords an almost Impassable
barrier to cold during the winter or heat
during the HUniutcr. Tl.e finished product
of tills method of building houses is Very
pretty, and for wearing qualities there Is
nothing to anrpas It. lirli k walls may
crack aud cement houses may yield to
the effects of sudden heat or cold, but the
veneer brick house combines stability and
elasticity In a manner that Is eminently
satisfactory.
William Redgwick, the contractor, has
completed sevehal houses of this kind re
cently. One of these is located at the cor
ner of Twenty-ninth and Woolworth ave
nue, and another is Mr. Redgwlcks home,
located at the corner of Twenty-ninth and
Hickory streets. A. Tlmmerman Is also
completed several houses of this kind re
st 2903 South Thirteenth street built of
veneer brick.
There are a number of houses located In
various parts of the city which are being
remodeled by this method. When the out
side of the house built of wood begins to
look shabby and the paint has disappeared
from it. then a course of brick can be run
along' the outside, and, behold, the house
Is metamorphosed from a dilapidated
dwelling, marred and scarred by the hand
of time, Into a brand new brick structure.
Imposing and impressive In its solidity. It
really becomes a house worth more than
the original frame structure was worth.
Pressed brick, chipped brick or Just plain
brick Is used In this veneering. The latter
often , lends Itself admirably to houses
whose style Is somewhat old. A church
near Twenty-third and Vinton streets has
recently undergone this remodeling process
with admirable results.
Only one of the forty-odd architects In
Omaha is a member of the national organ
isation, the American Institute of Archi
tects. This organisation Is a staid body,
one of whose rules is that the architect
shall not advertise his business. This is
considered to be againat the ethics of the
profession and the modern method Is not
to be resorted to at all. lis Is prohibited
from blowing his own business horn In any
way. I
'One of the things which Is rapidly de
veloping Omaha Into a city of beautiful
homes is the excellent I'ark board." said a
cltiwn. "Tlie work of this board is of very
great importance. It is a work which is
growing and which is bolng aided by
natura with every passing aeaaon. The
beautiful syslom C boulevards which ex-
BUILDERS
tends around the city In all directions is a
great aid and lure to the home builder.
These are avenues as It were, leading from
the cejjter of the city, from the busy mart
out to the freedom and fresh air of the
suburbs and of the country. Every city
which goes beyond the 100,000 mark has to
have a boulevard system of this kind to
give It outlets to the suburbs, to give easy
and pleasant avenues by which the subur
ban dweller and the owner of a country
home can come and go from his home to
his business.
"Omaha Is acquiring a fine system of
boulevards of this kind. The money for
their construction and maintenance Is be
ing expended wisely and in a manner which
makes the Improvements permanent. All
along these boulevards there are desirable
places for ,the building of homes with the
surroundings of the country and yet within
easy reach of the office and shop, and here
many homes are boing built In beautiful
surroundings and yet at a very moderate
cost, considering their great natural ad
vantages. "The parks which the Park board la ac
quiring and improving with wise hand and
artistic eye are also giving a great impetus
to home building. Tuke the Cut-Off prop
osition, for example. There Is a great
waste of land with magnificent natural
advantages, yet which Is now given over
to nothing better than railroad tracks, ice
houses and the like. The land surrounding
It on all sides Is, In consequence, given
over to only a cheap type of houses and
is largely the dwelling place of the poorer
classes of people. But when that plan has
been carried out and the land around the
lake has been turned Into a park with pa
vilions and driveways and lawns and flower
beds, the lands surrounding the park .will
become available and desirable for dwell
ings of the best class. Omaha must have
room to expand and the park system Is
supplying it to the best advantage possible."

fclXJAK C. ELLIS.
President of Navigation Congress
Edgar C. ' Ellis, congressman from the
Kifth district of Missouri, who was elected
presidont of the Missouri River Navigation
congress at Sioux City, Is the original Mis
souri river, congressman who went before
the rivers and harbors committee of tho
house and declared "the way to navigate
is to navigate," and we will "show you that
the Missouri river is not only navigable,
but navigated."
Kor several years the committees on
rivers and harbors has maintained tha
policy of appropriating nothing for em
bankment. When Congressman Ellis be
came a member of the committee he heart
ily endorsed the policy and said "not one
cent for any river which does not have
boats on It." Since then he has consistently
squelched any advocate of embankment
worVt on the Missouri river, and means to
let tln counties, cities and townships take
care of the embankment work and pre
vent losses which are threatened by the
abnormal hunger of the river for farms
and railroads.
Mr. Kills was elected to the fifty-ninth
congress and made his campaign on the
Improvement of the Missouri river. He was
re-elsHed to the Sixtieth congress, re
ceiving 21,0fK) votes to 19,000 for his demo
cratic competitor. He is a member of the
law firm of Ellis, Cook & Ellis of Kansas
City and a native of Michigan.
At the banquet given In Omaha by the
Commercial club In the Interests pf open
ing the river to navigation. Congressman
Ellis, was the principal speaker. Among a
sonre of strong mea-Jit the Hioux City con
vention, Mr. Ellis was said to be the
strongest, and no other candidate was con
sidered for the presidency when It learned
that Mr. Ellis would serve aa the head of
the permanent organisation to be known
as the "Missouri River Navigation Con
gress." During the summer the Misxourl con
gressman niado an extended trip up thn
Missouri river, talking to the business jnen
at various South Dakota towns, always
emphasizing the Idea that If "this move
ment means anything It means boats."
The congressman will Insist that all the
Missouri river needs Is boats and mow
work on tho crossing to start the traffic,
but later ho will favor the jiennanent Im
provement of the river under competent
engineers at an expense of luO.flrO per mllii
from the mouth to tho furthest point where
river traffic will pay. The scheme for the
permanent, improvement has not been
worked out, but the president of the new
organization bus the authority of the best
engineers in the I'nlted States, that It can
be done for the amount he suggests.
