CITY INTELLIGENCE.
WOn ADDITIONAL 1AK1A1. ITBUS 8X1 INSIMC PA9ES.
iMrRoYRMKNTa in thb City. There are oom
rratlyely few people who are aware of the
rtDf,n0nHnUful '"?Pro7ementa that are brnn?
put hd all over the city. K.speclally In that
Arch and Pine streets, lg this dplrtt of improve
ment particularly risible. Most of our citizen
remember the old riding school of Madame
Minna. In Arch street, westjof Broad. Formany
years It held lis place In spite of the beautiful
dwellings that went up all around It. But In
the course of time it had to succumb to the
march of Improvement, and now a couple of
Bplenrlid brownstone front dwellings mark the
spot where the old school had stood for so many
years. J ust above these bouses an old-fashioned
dwelling had its white front torn away, and
with the addition of about fifteen feet to the
nolh end, Is being rapidly transformed to a
beautiful doublo-lrnnted modern dwell lag. As
we bo westward, wo nod rows of beautiml
dwellings that aregolng nearer ami nearer to the
river. Open lots when we were boys, not mtiny
years ago, are now built up with residences that
any city inlKht bo proud of. The enly place that
does not seem to be Improving very fast in the
Section marked out Is Market street, from
Broad street to the Bridge. In Nineteenth
strett. between Market and Chennut, on the
west side a whole neat of small houses have
been torn down and new buildings are going
up to replace them, that will be more suitable
la that neighborhood.
On Chesnut street a number of Improvements
have been put up lately. Between Sixteenth
and Seventeenth streets, on the north side, a
magnificent brown stone double-fronted build
ing is being rapidly put up. On the south side
of the street, above Twentieth, a couple of beau
tiful four-story brick houses, with brown stone
finishings, have been erected. On Walnut
street, west of Twentieth, a large number of the
finest elaxs 01 buildings have been erected.
Some of these are almost pnlatlal for their
beauty of deslgu and finish. Amongst them
we cannot help mentioning the mansion of
Mr. John Rice, at the southwest corner of
Twentieth and Walnut streets. It Is built of
white marble, with rough finish to the walls,
and with bexuilful ornamentation to the win
dows and doorways. It is throe stories la
height, and has a Mansard roof.
Ai Seventeenth and Pine streets a new gram
mar school house is being erected. It is built
somewhat upon the plan of the school building
at Twentieth and Coates streets, but will be
much handsomer In Its finish and general ap-
earanoe. The contractors, Messrs. Thomas &
irothers, are pushing the work rapidly for
ward; and It is expected that, by the close of the
year, it will be ready to turn over to the use of
the city for school purposes. It was commenced
early In April, aud already the lower courses
have been laid, and In three months H will be
ready lor the plasterer.
On Locust street. Just above the Aoademy of
.Music, another school house is being put up. It
will not be as large or complete as the above,
but will still be a handsome structure. It will
be of dressed stone, and three stories in height.
Mr. Smith Hughes is the contractor.
On Seventeenth street, Just below Spruce,
three brown stone-fronted dwellings aregoiug
to be put up.
Ou Pine street, between Fifteenth and Six
teenth streets, on the north side, a whole row
of modern brown stone-fronted dwellings are
being built to correspond in appearauce with
those on the opposite side.
In Spruce street, above Twentieth, William
Urubb Is putting up several splendid brown
Btone fronted dwellings. It would take a
column. Indeed, to enumerate the many hand
some improvements that are being made lu the
fashionable section of our city. The general
character of all the buildings that are being put
up are of the highest degree of merit, and tend
to beautifying our city.

Machine Shop and Boarding-House Burned
uan Exciting Scenb. About 1 o'clock this
morning the first floor of the large four-story
brick structure No. 112 Spruce street, occupied
by Mr. John W. Wright as a machine shop and
storing warehouse, was discovered to be in
llames. Before the alarm could be given the
flames made such rapid headway that when the
Are companies arrived upon the ground the
entire building was in flames. The roots of the
adjoining houses, Nos. 110 and 114, ou either
lfi. took fire and were destroyed, as was also a
two-story frame building In the rear of No. 112.,
The whole interior or jno. in was Durueu out,
and the machinery and everything Hcontalned
was entirely destroyed. The building No. 114,
which Is a large five-storied structure, was occu
pied by Mr. Frederick Lau as a German boarding-house.
The scene that was presented when
the alarm of fire was first beard in this house
was peculiarly exciting. It was crowded with
emigrants, aud being awakened from their
sleep, they came rushing out pell-mell, In the
f reatest alarm and confusion. Many of them
n their excitement did not take time to dress,
but appeared la their night-clothes, regardless
of evi rylhlng and everybody.
Mr. Wright's loss will amount to from 820.000
to $22,000, on which there is an Insurance of
$40uo in the Hoyal. As ha was forcing his way
Into the building, some scoundrel relieved
him of a pocket-book containing 8)0. lhe
building belongs to Mr. Michael Smith. The
stock in the building No. 110 was damaged by
water alone to the extent of 82000. This build
ing Is the property of Mr. John Dallett.

THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, SATUKDAY,
A Remarkable Invention. A man that in
vents a labor-saving machine Is a benefaotor to
his race. By it we secure the results of the
labor of a number of lndlvidnals through t he
agency of but one. One of the must remark
able inventions of this class is a machine for
cutting teeth and cogs In woddon patterns.
The machine Is as remarkable for the simpli
city of Its construction as for the rapidity and
thoroughness of the work it perforins.
It consists of a shear of leiiKth suited to the
size of the work to be done, upon which runs
the upright with cutler attached. The block
which Is to have the teeth out In It Is attached
to a spindle that projects perpendicularly from
a large iron disc that Is revolved by hnd for
the purpose of moving the block around and
spacing the teeth. For this purpose the face of
the disc is graduated so us to turn tho block
around any distance as eiich tooth Is out. Too
cutter Is attached to a holder upon a spindle
that funs lu an upright guide, and to
which the pulley for revolving it is
attached. This upright has several motions,
so as to enable it to cut the proper bevel upon
mitre wheels, and also upm dove-talllng work.
It lias a lateral motlou 1mm right to left to cut
the proper bevel upon the teeth thoiuielves,
nnd a motion up and down to cut the proper
bevel ppon the wheel. The ouiter Is fed by
means of a screw turned from the top of the
upright, and the latter Is also moved backwards
and forwards upon the slirnr to accommodate
diOerent s1k d work by a screw. Wo weiepre
sent at a trlsl of the machine, and it was per
fectly wonderful to see the speed wlthwhloh
the work was done, aud the beautiful finish
that wus given.
They were fit for nse as they came from the
machine, being perfectly smooth, and every
tooth perfectly uniform. The cutter revolvesat
a speed of 30UO a minute, and ;the teeth can be
cut of auy size at the rate of elcht or ten a
minute. The machine can be seen lu operation
at auy time at the machine shop of Mr. i chris
tian, la (he rear of Goldsmith's Hall, T.lbriry
street, above Fourth. We understand that the
county rights for this valuable invention are
for sale for the States of Pennsylvania aud New
Jerbty.
Fire in tfie Twenty-Fifth Ward. Yester
day afternoon, about 3 o'clock, a fire broke out
In the roof of the three-story frame building at

story brick, was occupied lu first and second
floors by Schobert A Cottlngham, as a blok
factory, and the third floor by Close & Evans as
a snll-loft. Mr. Allen's loss will amount to
83000. The Insurance cannot as yet be defi
nitely ascertained. Messrs. Close A K van's loss
is about 81000 from water. Messrs. Bohobort &
Cottlngham lose 85000.
The fire, which Is believed to have been
caused by sparks from a chimney, was dis
covered by William Newell, one of the work
men in the sail-loft. lie tried to extinguish It,
but It had gained too much headway. Whilst
thus engaged he fell from the ladder leading to
the rool, and was severely Injured.

night a fire broke out in a building No.218 N.
Second street. It Is a three-story brick build

A Summer Resort. It is not every family

easily and cheaply accessible, as boats leave
the whaif at the foot of South street every
three quarters of an hour during the day.
