rich brown. Around two sides of the
room are glass cases containing the
dishes and plate off which the million
aire and his family eat. The glimpses
caught here and there show China OF
the rarest kind, each article work OF
art in itself. The plate is too numerous
and too fine to mention in detail, as
also, indeed. are the porcelain and 9TH
err dishes. There stands one table only
in this immense room of carved dark
wood. A large sideboard is at the west
end of the room. and two large windows
give light. Several handsome pictures
also add their charm to make this a
cheerful place, but it seems to me that
If it were my home l should
want a smaller dining-room for use
when there were none but our own
family. This is too large.
From the dining-room you cross the
great hall again, going westward to-
ward the great picture galleries and
conservatory. Below, in the basement,
are the kitchens and the store-rooms
and cellar. all fitted up on scale as
solid and thorough as all the rest of the
house. the kitchen being Respondent
with great shining range and per-
fectly ravishing row of polished copper
and other utensils of which it is but
candid to admit that don't know half
the names or uses.
All the private rooms of the family
are upon the second floor, and all are,
as may be understood. as handsome as
unlimited means could make them, with
this addition. that woman reigns su-
preme in there. and wonanly fancy has
added hundreds Of little graces and re-
finements which gid the refined gold
we read of and render this almost too
splendid home a sweeter place than its
man fold eauties alone could give it,

GEORGE LEWIS SAFE
Opened To-day by Order OF the
Court.

opened To-day by Order OF the
Court.
The anxiously. awaited order OF the court to
open the safe belonging to the late oil broker,
George H. Lewis, was Issued this morning.
Marshal McMichael went to Lewis office. Mr..
Lewis clerk delivered up the key and the safe
was opened in the presence of tho Marshal,
deputy marshal, the clerk and three apprais-
ere, who have been appointed to estimate the
value OF the safes contents.
Tho Job was found 20 be quite a considerable
one, taking about two hours simply 10 make
an inventory OF the contents, which were
found to consist of books belonging to the vari-
Gus companies IN which Lewis was Interested,
tho Mica, the Ice Manufacturing and other
concerns. There was also found lump of sill.
yer stamped with the name "Francls Rams
ley"
Nothing relating 10 the oil syndicate was
found up TO late hour, and tho opinion
was expressed that Lewis had taken every
thing. A tin box, said to contain some valua.
BILE securities, was searched for, but no trace
was found OF II. This will be great dlsap-
pointment 10 many who had counted on the
securities being recovered. 1t Is evident that
Lewis made clean sweep.
