HANDSOME RESIDENCE. = On the
TN Of jane last, Hon. A. : Miller
commenced the construction Of : large
.ouare shaped dwelling on bis slightly
lets at the corner of Fourth and Marion
TRACTS This handsome residence 10
now receiving its finishing touches.
Tbe main building contains nine rooms
t,ur M stairs and five on the lower
aoor II is hard finished throughout,
and Mr.. Miller has spared no pains or
a,oense in fitting it up with all the
modern improvements. The p,rlor and
';t,;nu room can be made into one large
hall by separating the folding doors.
Tho inside wood work is finished with
o., shsllac and varnish, which not
onlv gives the cedar besutiful finish,
hut tends to draw out more plainly the
handsome grain of the wood. On the
Iower floor there is a parlor, sitting
room dining-room, kitchen and bed
,oom with dressing room attached, be-
sides bathroom, hall and closets. In
The wood house adjoining there are all
tho conyeuiences for wash-room. The
pantry contains large handsome
stationery cupboard, with drawers.
shelves glass doors, etc. On entering
the house from the front porch you
pass through large double glass doors
into the hall and face a pretty pair Of
winding stairs. Along the ceiling
throughout the house picture frame
moulding has been placed, SO that pic
lures can be suspended and changed at
will without the use of screws or nails,
or anything else calculated to break the
plaster Water pipes run all through
the house, and may be tapped in three
different places. All surplus water is
carried off, and the sewerage on his
place is most perfect, the water from
the caves never touching the ground
until some distance from the building.
The outward appearance of the struc-
ture is just as pleasing as the inside.
and the whole job reflects much credit
both on the planner and builder. Mr..
Poncins family will occupy this nice
residence. and it will be turned over to
them in few days. thus adding one
more to the list of elegant dwellings of
oCr city.
