Concurrence Of Guests-H VIZ Open fer the

Mr. ri. l.. Oylesby, manager of the Leon
Florida's Parlor Hotels one of the most busy
men in Tallahassee Just now. Hearing the
musical sound of saw and hammer in that direc.
ton yesterday, a FLoRIDIAN reporter went in
to see what was going on, and was surprised to
find large force of carpenters busily engaged in
erecting a new three-story addition to the hotel
and making many Other improvements This
new addition includes large and roomy bath and
toilet rooms on each floor, where guests can en-
JOY hot or cold baths at all hours of the night or
day. The addition is capped by al immense
water tank which is kept full by hot air engine
pump and it is also connected by PIPES with the
Mcssrs. Lewis water works Pipes connected
with the tank run all through the hotel, and
with 500 feet Of hose, hung in convenient place,
il would be a hard IN alter for fire TO gain any
Roadway in case the building should ever
catch. The new addition includes a private
office and cloak rpom on The first floor, which
has enabled the management to reduce the size
OF office counters and m Ike more room in the
rotunda.
The new addition provides for another large
and comfortable reading and smoking room for
gentlemen, which VIII be quite cosy and conve-
ncnt 1t also gives an increased number of sleep
ing apartments
The bath and toilet rooms have been built
much larger than is required for Il hotel of the
present size. This has been done with view to
charging the Leon considerably in the near fu-
ture. The toilet rooms are to be supplied with
new and improved sanitary closets, and the en-
tire building will be lighted by gas
All OF the mattresses have been taken to pieces,
hand picked and made over by Mr.. Charles Lam
kew, who is an experienced upholsterer. A num-
Der of new and improved Gate City water filters
have been ordered and many other modern APP
piances added.
The croquct and lawn tents grounds have
been put in excellent shape, and the park has
been considerably beautfed. Thirty or forty
fine varieties of roses have been planted as also
at out one thousand tulip and hyacinth bulbs
and, when in bloom, the flowers in this park will
be among the many attractive features of the no.

Mr.. Ogesby informs the FLoRIDTAN represent
alive that he has engaged the services of a we'll
knewn Chef, who has been preparing dainty
dishes all summer at the New Kent House, Lake
Wood, New York and that his second cook is
an experienced man who was engaged last win
ter at the San Marco at ST. Augustine
The Leon will be thrown open for the recep
ton Of guests on the 18th of December aud many

It is TO be Made One of the Most
Beautiful Features of the Capital

AS has been before mentioned in these col
umns the late Miss Clara Lewis left a bequest
setting aside sum of money to be expended in
establishing city park at the east end of Nc
Carly street, In accordance with the terms of
her will the trustees have secured the right from
our Board of City Aldermen to establish this
park and work has been begun thereon
This is one of the best natural locations within
the city limits for park. McCarty street is two
hundred feet wide and the east end of it. which
is to be converted into the said park, is most
beautiful grove, in which the magnificent
branches Of giant oaks interlock, shading the
rich green sward carpet, but letting little patches
of glorious sunshine through, here and there,
making grand blending of light and shadow,
which no artist could duplicate upon canvass
The park is being enclosed by neat iron
fence, mounted upon a brick foundation,
which Will he very strong and durable as we'll
as attractive There will be a streetway left on
either side of the park, running east and west,
and it will include all that part of the grove be-
ginning its western boundary at Calhoun street
and running east to Gadsaen street. The park
will be perfect jewel of beauty in time. 1t is
to have bub5lng fountains, and will be filled
with various kinds of shrubbery, choice flowers
and trailing vines. Comfortable rustic seats
will be scattered about beneath the grand old
oaks, and when the flowers begin to bloom. it
will become favoritc afternoon resort for home
folk as well as visitors.
This park will supply long felt want to Tai
lahassec and will be highly appreciated by WIN
Ter tourists, who have often asked why we did
not have something OF this kind, where upon
afternoon and Sundays, our business men as
well as ladies, children and visitors could get
breath Of fresh air and enjoy the beauties of
nature right in the heart of the city
This fair spot in the hearts of the citizens
of Tallahassee, will ever be dedicated to the
memory of the late lamented Miss Lewis, who
conceived the idea and so generously bequeath-
ed the money that the park might be made /" a
thing of beauty and joy forever"

The improved method of fastening the strings
of pianos. invented by the Mason s. Hamlin Or
gan and Piano Company in the year 1882, is IN
questionably one of the most important improve
ments ever made, making the instrument more
richly musical ID its tones, as well as more dura-
BILE, and much less liable to get out of tune.
Both the Mason & Hamlin organs and pianos
excel chiefly in that which is the chief excel
lence in any musical instrument, quality Of tone.
Other things, though important, are much less
so than this. An instrument with unmusical
tones cannot be good musical instrument. H.
Illustrated catalogues, containing descriptions OF
new and popular styles of organs and pianos, in
troduced this season. will be sent free to any one
addressing the Company, Boston, New York or
Chicago.
