A Charming Entertainment.

The spacious parlors at the residence of MT. Morris F. Tyler, presisent of the South ern New England Telephone Co.,, were filled with select and refined audience of ladies and gentlemen last Saturday afternoon to enjoy piano recital given by pupils of Mrs. 0. P. Beers, the esteemed and accomplished teacher of the piano. The young people ac- quilted themselves with degree of success which was most gratifying to the assembly, and all with pleasure spoke in terms most complimentary to the skill and efficiency of the teaching and it's genuine artistic char acter. The admirable playing of the piano selections and the other features of the pro- gramme were all so meritorious that all de- seeerve equal mention and praise. The pro gramme was ss follows:

 Building Operations.
 The new elegant apartment house on York street, between Crown and George streets. being erected by MT. William Gay and known as the "Jocelyn" is being finished rapidly. The walls have been plastered in adamant, which is far superior and more expensive than the usual hard finish, being durable, smooth and very hard and creates no delay as it dries at once. It is the same ss used in the new Rosette street and Webster schools, and is being used by Mir. Robert Brown in his new and elegant house on Whitney ave- nue. The interior of the "Joceyn" is to be finished in hard wood. This includes the staircases and all inside trimmings. A large steam boiler and furnace well placed in the building and temporary radiators set up as soon as the roof was finished and the steam turned on 80 that the woodwork might be thoroughly dry before plastering and to protect the plaster from freezing. The build ing is expected to be ready by the 1st of April. The flats on each side of the main hall are divided by two solid brick division walls running clear to the roof and will there fore be practically fireproof. Alfred Boote of NeY York has the contract for tiling the halls, hearth, etc., and furnish ing the freplaces. He also furnishes the hard wood mantels which will have ele- gant plate glass mirrors. The building is being erected with view to combine con- venience, elegance and comfort, and is in- tended for people of means, who will appre- ciate janitor's service, steam heating, etc., and object to going up and down several flights of stairs. Each fiat on the lower floor will comprise seven rooms and store room, and those on the upper floors eight rooms and store rooms. The rents, we understand, will be very reasonable in comparison to the cost of the edi6ce. The building is being fitted up with automatic door-openers, electric bells, speaking tubes, letter boxes, elevators, sanitary plumbing, etc. Gas connections are being made with each grate, SO that if in the spring or fall cold day should come when the steam is not on patent gas log fires can be lit cp. It is evident that no expense or care is being sp&red that will add to the beauty or coms fort of these model flats.
