TALLMADGE HALL.
A New and Convenient Inn

new anu SuuNcnieAt Improvement
The want Of good halls, and thoroughly respec-
table halls for public assemblies, has been Sc
verely felt in Washington, and demand for In
creased facilities in this regard has been very
earnest. Lincoln Hall, Masonic Hall, Odd Fell
lows Hall and Willard Hall have each had
their own peculiar patronage, and will continue
to haye, and yet there is most abundant room for
the new and beautiful improvement to be known
to the public as Tallmadge Hall, located in the
very heart Of the city, ct Nos. 928 and $50 F
street. This hall has its entrance on the grade
of the street, and through passage by sliding
doors Of thirteen feet in width 1t is ninetysix
feet long and forty-one wide, and has
q seating capacity, with its floor and
handsome gallery, Of one thousand peo-
pie. 1t has fifteen large windows and com
pIete ventilation. The stage is twenty feet deep,
and well adapted to receive the powerful reflect
ing light thrown upon 1t. The drop scene was
painted by the artist Lamb, and is q rich and
elegant specimen Of scenic work. The
ladies' dressing room is provided with
every convenience and is handsomely fur.
nis6ed with mirrors and Brussels carpet,
me ms, the entrance to which is from the stage.
The means of exit are ample, there being four
doors on the grade of the street. Great credit is
due to the builder, Mr.. John H. Hewlett; to the
plumber, Mr.. H. X. Cruit; to the gas filter, Mr..
@. g. Thorn, and to the painter, Mr.. Carr. The
heating apparatus was put in by Collins & Ward
and is OF the latest improved pattern. The hall
is Q great credit to its propriet0rs, Tallmadge
Co., and Will be thoroughly appreciated by the
public.
