James and East Grand street, did not arise
yesterday morning usual, and was found
dead in his bed. He had been aiing for some
time, and his death was not unexpected
During the night he was breathing heavily
and awoke some of the tenants in the house,
who did not think, however, that his end
was SO near.

day afternoon to accommodate the people
going and returning home from the laying of
the corner stone of the Reformatory School

A Model Boarding stable.
The new stable which has been erected in
the rear of the Tontine Hotel, and which is
occupied by the well known firm of Barker &
Ransom, is model of its kind, and it is safe
to say that there is nothing in the New Eng
land States that surpasses or even equals it.
This new building, which is designed es-
pecially for ''boarders,' is fitted up in most
magnificent STYLE with all modern improve
ments. On the first floor is a spacious wait
ing room, designed exclusively for the con
venience of those who board their horses at
the stable. Connected with this room is a
wash room, water closet, and series of
closets for patrons, on each of which
are Yale locks, where can be kept
coats or other articles with perfect
safety. Each boarder has place for whip,
blankets and harness, all perfectly secured.
= A harness room is also provided on the first
floor, where the harnesses are cleaned and
then put away in their proper places. The
stalls for horses are in the rear ON the same
floor and are large, light and airy, the venti-
lation being according to the most approved
methods There are accommodations for

Der of these have already been taken. Call
bells and speaking tubes connect with every
part of the establishment, and each attendant
being numbered promptly responds when
his number is called. The carriages of board
ers are all kept on the second floor, where
they are raised by an elevator with automatic
brake after being thoroughly washed by
man experienced in his business On the
second floor also is the hay loft, which is sep
arated from the carriage store room by
fre-proof door. From the loft to the floor
below are two apertures where the hay Is
lowered. and these tubes or boxes running to
the roof also serve as ventilators from the
stables. In the hay loft also is mammoth
bin, in-lined, capable of holding three car
loads of oats. The hay is easily raised to the
loft by tackles, and the teams bringing the
feed do not in any manner obstruct the pas
sage of teams in their entrance or exit from
the building. Tho third floor is to be used
for the storage of carriages and sleighs not
in active service. Altogether it Is model
establishment and wen worthy the inspection
of the public.
