pride of the community and is
looked upon as a gauge of Daw-
sons present prosperity, a proph-
esy of its future progress. This
important enterprise was taken in
hand by that public spirited gen
tleman,. Mr.. o. G. Robinson, and
has been managed with admira-
bic business sagacity. He placed
the planning and building of the
house in the hands of Mr.. B. H.
Brown, wen- known throughout
our community for his taste in
architectura thoroughness in
workmanship and expedition in
the completion of jobs committed
to him. The wood work has been
already completed; the plasters,
painters and finishing hands are
rapidly turning off their parts Of
the job, and the keys will be turn
ed over and the house opened by
the 1st of October. The house is
one of which Dawson may we'll be
proud and presents an inviting as
pect to the weary traveller. 1t has
two elegant colonades, one on the
first floor, the other above. They are
2l0 feet in length, making most
attractive promenades, and fur
nishing ample means for exercise.
The lower one will prove no doubt
agreeable to commercialists and
other gentlemen for lounging and
enjoying the pleasures Of the OPEN
air, while the upper colonade will
be especially suited to ladies for
exercise and refreshment, while at
the same time it will be quite re-
tired. Ii the outside of the house
is inviting the inside will prove
more attractive. On the first floor
will be found a large office in the
southwest corner of the building
opening on the colonade. This
room, with the lower halls and
stairway, is finished in a most
handsome manner with wainscot-
ing of the best yellow pine ceiling
three inches wide. 1t is certainly
a beautiful piece of work and is
the delight of all who have visited
the building. Just back of the
office is nobby baggage room,
well adapted to the demands of the
traveller, and those who have Wis
tied the Kimball House say there
IS nothing there superior to it.
The dining room is large, well ar
ranged, we'll sentilated, excellent
ly finished. Nothing better can
be found in this part of the State.
Just opposite the office on the first
floor is an elegant sitting room in
tended for gentleman and will
prove especially pleasant to them.
In addition to the rooms on the
hrst floor already mentioned is a
sample room for commercial sales
men, well adapted to this impor-
tant class of customers. Up stairs
IS large, well-fnished parlor for
the ladies, which will be most ele-
gantly furnished and made attrac-
tive to the fair sex. Opposite the
parlor is the bridal chamber. a
very important addition to every
we'll regulated hotel. There are
81 bed rooms in all. Many of
them are arranged with doors so as
to open into each other and con-
stitute suit of rooms suitable to
the requirements Of families or
companies of friends. In addi-
ton to the features of the house
already detailed there will be two
rooms for large and heavy trunks,
and we'll arranged laundry to
meet the demands Of the travel
ling public. The top of the
house is ornamented with a cupa-
10, arranged as band stand, from
which our already excellent band
can dispense sweet music.
This house which is so we'll
planned and arranged to satisfy
all the tastes of the varied public
Tor comfort and luxury is to be
presided over by that old drum
mer, SO well and favorably known
to the travelling public, Mr. TN.
Allen. He is respected by all
who know him, well informed as
to the demands of the travelling
public, popular in manners and
efficient in hnsiness Mr Allnn
