men.
The contract for painting the Nadeau
was awarded to D. A Moriarity, IA
East First street. Mr.. Moriarty is we'll
known as the best house and sign painter
in Los Angeles, his services being con-
stantly in demand. He has always had
the largest business here since il was
demonstrated that he thoroughly under
stood his trade, and employed large
force Of skillful and reliable workmen.
Those who have been over the Nadeau
before the building passed into the
hands Of Mr.. Dunham would scarcely
recognize it now. Every room. large
and small, the halls, entries. stairways,
etc., have been painted wherever paint
was required, and calcimined wherever
calcimine was needed. From top to
bottom it is as fresh and new looking as
il the great house had Just been turned
over from its first builders. The care
full and thorough way in which this
last coat of paint has been put on has
elected much admiration, and it
is due to Mr.. Moriarity and his
workmen to say that they have sur
passed their usually fine efforts. The
tints and shades chosen show good taste
and the whole effect is very fine. Few
people realize how much depends upon
the careful painting of the interior of a
building. Many houses and blocks in
this city have been spoiled by the care
less work of incompetent mon, and il is
indeed pleasant 10 note that such is not
the case in the Nadean. From top to
bottom the colors harmonize, showing
master hand. Some idea of the amount
of work required may be gained by the
statement that the cost Of the painting
amounts to $1,000. and of the calcimin-
ing, $500. Mr.. Moriarity found some Of
the walls In bad shape, and repaired
them In a skilful manner. He is now
his work and i will, for
long time. be firat-class advertisement
for him. Persons who are thinking Of
painting Or re-painting their dwellings

good hints by examining the Nadea u

CROCKERY AND GAS FIXTURES,
meybsrg Bros, Contribution TO
the Hotel.

Messrs. Meyberg Bros, 20l N. Main
street, corner Temple street, have con-
| tributed very materially to the elegant
appointments of the Nadeau. To them
was awarded the contract for supplying
the greater portion of the gas fixtures
and for all the crockery and glassware.
This house. in its special line one of the
leading establishments on the coast, has
special facilities in its New York and
European branches for furnishing the
finest quality of goods at the lowest
prices.
The gas fixtures were all made to or
der from designs furnished by Mr.. Dun.
ham himself. They are very ornamental
and add greatly to the appearance of the
parlors, dining room and chambers
which they adorn. Altogether they
number one hundred and eighty-eight.
The house has furnished 6375 pieces
Of crockeryware, not to speak of the
glassware. A large proportion of the
crockery and glassware have the name
Of the house engraved on them in an
elegant manner. The total number of
letters engraved was $4,000. Both
crockery and glassware are of the finest
patterns, being the same as are used in the
Hoffman House, New York. The goods
were all manufactured by the famous
house Of Rogers Bros.
The parlor lie adorned with crystal
gas fixtures, and the dining room with
gold bronze aud silver bronze fixtures.
The chambers are nearly all furnished
with crystal fixtures. The firm has also
supplied the elegant mirrors which will
be such feature of the parlors and din
ing room, and the mirrors over the man
ties in the bed rooms.
The dining room is supplied with the
Jewell Refrigerator. for which Meyberg
Bros. are agents. This refrigerator has
stood the test where all others have
failed, and il is high compliment to its
good qualities that the management of
the Nadeau selected it when brought
into competition with all others. The
order from the Nadeau for the articles
furnished by this firm came SO unexpect-
edly, owing to the early date il was de-
termined to open the house, that it
would have taxed the facilities of any
house 10 the state to fill it. 1t is one of the
most cheerful signs of the times that
the wholesale houses of Los Angeles
seem equal to any emergency, and Mey-
berg Bros. have shown most commenda-
BILE enterprise in so promptly filling the
demand. With the growth of the city
our business houses are keeping up
bravely, and several leading establish
ments have domestic and foreign
branches. Those of Mey berg Bros. are
located respectively at New York and
Frankfort-on-the-M Main, Germany. These
facts, in connection with the description
Of the Nadeau, are of interest as showing
that Los. Angeles can supply, on the
shortest notice, anything needed in the
furnishing line. The proprietor of the
Nadeau has shown disposition to do
everything in his power to benefit and
assist home enterprises. aud in the case
Of Meyberg Bros at least, he has not
been disappointed.

THE NADFAU BAR.
Description of a PaIatiaI Estab.
ftshment.

The saloon, including cigar stand and
bar, in connection with the Nadeau, is
one of the principal features Of the
house. This department is owned and
managed by Charles Eaton, who has long
been known in connection with the Pico,
st. Elmo and Semi-Tropie bars. Mr.,
Eaton's experience and popularity give
him q great advantage, and the Nadeau
saloon, under his management, cannot
but prosper. The establishment is being
fitted up at immense cost, and beyond
question will be the finest saloon on the
coast outside of San Francisco. In front
the cigar stand occupies fifteen feet and
is covered with glass. 1t is to be illumi-
mated with a grand four-light chande-
lier. The show cases, finished in the
finest natural woods, will present an ele-
CANT appearance. A partition separates
the bar.room and cigar stand. In the
saloon there is to be twenty foot coun-
ter finished in the finest style, being one
of the bandsomest in the State. Abeau-
tiful hve-light chandelier is suspended
over it and in the rear there are two
Newell lamps. The interior will not
lack for light. Behind the bar there is
a large mirror fourteen feet in height
covering the side. This mirror is set in
ornamental wood and presents q beau.
tiful appearance.
The decoration OF the walls is de-
scribed elsewhere. and ii only remains to
add that it is one Of the most beautiful
pieces Of work in the city. The deco
rations comprise all the latest styles, and
directly on the panels are painted four
large oil paintings which set off the
walls in remarkably pleasing manner.
In addition, Mr.. Eaton has secured
eight French paintings which will he
placed in advantageous positions. The
chairs used will be of the same style as
those in the Grand Opera House.
Los Angeles has long needed a really
6rst.class billiard room, and is at last TO
have one. This apartment will be for
ty-five feet ia length and will be sup.
piled with three billiard tables and one
fifteen. bali pool table. They will all be
of the celebrated Brunswick Bake
make.
The whole establishment will be fur.
nished in natural woods. In appear
ance it will fully correspond with the
metropolitan order of things which Los
Angeles is rapidly assuming. Only in
San Francisco where, in the days of the
Comstock excitement, money was lavish
ly expended in the construction and
adornment of such establishments, can
be found such palatial temple Of Bac-
chus. Of the stock Of liquors and cigars
it will be needless to add that under the
management of Mr.. Eaton everything
will be strictly first-class. Great credit
is due to him for the enterprise he has
shown in the fitting up of this grand
establishment. 1t is lifting counterpart
for the hotel, perfect in all its appoint
ments.

THE CARPETS.
The Hotel Carpeted by Lion q

SON.
To carpet hotel the size of the Ma
deau was, as may be imagined, no small
undertaking. The contract for this i'm.
portant part of the fixing up of the
building was awarded to comparative
ly new firm in this city, but one which
has already made cor siderable stir.
Messrs. Lion & Son came to this city
about four months ago and opened an
establishment at ll6 West First street.
They announced themselves the only ex.
elusive carpet house in Los Angeles, and
in spite of violent opposition have made
steady and healthy progress until to-day
their trade extends all over the Southern
country. They deal in carpets of ell
descriptions, draperies, wall paper, etc.,
and, since their advent, prices for car
pets in this section have been materially
reduced. They readily secured the con
tract for carpsting the Nadeau, for none
of their competitors could begin to COM
pare with them, either in styles or
prices. Thanks to them, the Nadeau
will be one OF the most elegantly car
peted hotels in the State. They have
their part of the grand work we'll under
way and it will shortly be finished.
This house is branch of Unknown
house of l.. Lion, San Jose, the prime
pie house of its kind on the coast. The
firm has made, and proposes to still make
it very warm for auy other houses that
may attempt to run them out. They
have the capital and means to hold their
own against all odds.
They have both wholesale and retail
department, and announce that they
will be undersold by no one. If their
work in the Nadeau is o fair sample of
what they do, and there is no doubt
that it is. parties preparing to purchase
carpets should not fail to see them be-
fore purchasing elsewhere. They fur
nish expert men to put down carpets,
and the proprietors themselves have
grown up in the carpet trade and thor
oughly understand 1t. The rule of the
house is to buy and sell only for cash.
Having tor the present reduced the
price of carpets to lower figure than
was ever known in Los Angeles, it is
good time to buy. Certainly Lion &
Son are to be congratulated for what
they have accomplished in Los Angeles.

DraperY and UphoI-
steriug.

To Robert Sharp & Co., proprietors Of
the Pioneer works, at the corner Of
Seventh and Los Angeles streets, wau
assigned the contract for supplying the
hotel with the lace curtains, draperies,
ETC., required. That the firm has done
the work well glance over the building
shows at once. Mr.. Sharp has given his
personal supervision to all the details.
Having almost grown up in his business,
which is that of house decorating and
furnishing, as well as upholstery, he has
special facilities for the satisfactory full.
fillment of anything in this line entrust.
ed to him. 1t was in view Of these facts
that the large contract for the Nadeau
was awarded to him. Mr.. Sharp in his
long residence in this city has secured
the largest trade, and has unequalled ia
cilities for the speedy and satisfactory
performance of all kinds of upholstering
and house decoration. The contract
for renovating such of the furniture of
the old Nadeau as was retained was also
awarded to him.

ARTISTIC WORK.
The BeuutifuI Decorations of the
Hotel.

HoNtNs
The description Of the Nadeau would
be far from com plete did il not contain
an account Of the elegant frescoing that
attracts the attention Of every one who
chances to come into the house. 1t is
the artistic work of Ottnrson h Rivers.
On every hand the question is asked,
'Whose work is thati" and among con-
noisseurs it is pronounced exceedingly
hne. 1t would puzzle the brain of even
newspaper man to pronounce the name
of some OF the colors and designs. Let
MS begin with the parlor and attempt a
brief description of its enchanting beau
ties. The field or in-panel is OF rich
shade OF old gold lined with French gold
leaf At either end of the panel, which
Is oval in design, are corners OF blended
oclors crossed with gold lines. producing
a very pleasing effect and looking very
much as though the design was taken
from some lady's crazy quilt. Forming
band to separate the field from the
ends are fine colors OF gold blended to.
gether aud dotted with specks OF yellow
and white. all in such perfect harmony
as to convey TO the eye one continuous
quartz specimen across the parlor. From
the ceiling for three feet is water scene
Of tules and water grapes. Separated at
equal distances are panels OF autumn
leaves, peach blossoms, etc., to break
the monotony Of the freize around so
large a room. The woodwork is in
keeping with the colors in the carpet aud
finished with three oolors OF gold.
The main entrance is in two panels,
the one in front being part OF design in
the officers room in the new Board of
Trade room in Chicago, the center
field being covered with running vines
of morning glory. At each corner
a very pretty circular pattern
Of wild rose, lily, etc., goes to
make the ceiling complete, the freize in
the entrance being an owl upon one side
and tcene from the Alhambra upon
the other, separated by the names of
Ottrson & Rivers, the gentlemen who
have done the work. Would space per-
nit it would be interesting to at some
length give an outline OF their mode and
facilities for doing their work. Both
gentlemen are adopts with the brush,
and are in many respects superior to any
artists who have made this branch of
work speciality. Mr.. Ottarson is
graduate OF the Boston School Of De-
sign and natural colorist, as his work
would indicate. These gentlemen have
under way the cigar stand, bar and bill
lizard room Of Mr.. Charles Eaton, who
will hold forth in the adjoining room
south OF the main entrance. When
from under their brush this room
emerges, no finer one can be found on
the coast.
Messrs. Ottarson & Rivers have come
here to make their homes and only ask
fair showing to convince the most fas-
tidious that they can DO with brush
much finer work than can be done with
paper and at nearly the same price.
Give the boys chance. Their address
is box lib Los Angeles.

A portion of the gas fixtures of the
Nadeau came from the extensive estab-
lishment OF s. M. Perry, 30 South Main
street. Mr.. Perry has put in some very
ornamental work of late designs, which
will prove pleasing feature of the
great hotel. 1t is due to him to say
that he has shown excellent Judgment in
articles used in his department Of the
great work. Mr. Perry has given his
