One of Marylan,'s Most Magnificen;
Mansions.

one OF Marylanu'S Most Magnificent,
Mansions.
Labyrinth, at -Four Corners Montgomery
Co., Ad, miles from the White uonsa
was purchased by Mr. c. 0. b. Bryapt in
1854 from Mr.. George N Beale and others
and contains one hundred and seventy-eight
acres with fine groves of oaks and several
fine running streams.
after Mr. Bryant purchased the place. he
built what is regarded as the most costly
and finest finished house in the country dis
tricts OF the State o Maryland, andis said 10
have cost over seventy five thousand S75.-
oool dollars. The mansion has a frontage
of 90 feet by depth of 100 feet. and Is
finished on the outside with oak timber cut
upon the place and manufactured into
building lumber in New Yor ndelsewbere
The immense roof is of slate and conner.
surtn0unted by a large circular conner
dome, in which is mounted fine telescope
for astronomical observations.
While the outside appearance of the
mansion shows the expenditure of much
labor and money, it gives but a faint idea
OF what has really been done in that line
1t is the interior, which causes anazement
and surprise. The mansion is three stories
high with an attic.
The interior is finished in the most
elaborate manner, apparently neither Ia hor
nor expense having been spared in making
1t a rare and beautiful bome1 The various
rooms and halls are beautifully frescoed
where not paneled, the paneling of the
Ceilings and walls being OF the heaviest
and most elaborate designs, the wood
entering into the interior finishing of the
mansion being the product OF MANY coun.
tries, MIR. Bryant having had agents tray
cling In South America and elsew here
seeking rare and beautiful wood for the
beautif ying of the house.
All the doors, bookcases, W arClrobes etc
are of selected mahogany and rosewood
imported in logs and manufactured in New
York.
The mansion sis heated throughout by
steam, being equipped with costly electric
and steam-heating plant.
In consequence of the feeble health of
Mr.. Bryant for the past year or two. he has
not resided in the mansion ha wing for
convenience, resided in the cottage" near
by, the cottage being a substantial ten
room house short distance from the man
sion. 1t is the intention of the new owners
Thomas H. Pickford and John H. Walter
to at once put the property in thorough
condition inside and out.
1t is not known just now to what use
they propose to put the property,
it being OF such proportions and value
that it is not thought that any pri-
vate party could handle it for residence
purposes. Propositions looking to its pur-
chase for educational purposes have been
made, but not decided upon as yet Just
what will be done is not decided upon, but
1t is to he hoped that this fine property
will finally become a great educational
institution of the State OF Maryland or of
some one OF our large religious denomina-
ttons.

Hiss Annie Chandler, a Typewriter.
Accuses Lawyer TiBgle.
The Defcndunt Puts Up $5, But For
feits His Other Legal
Process to Be Tried.

George R. Tingle, a lawyer. whose Of
flee is on F street, forfeited his colIat-
eral in the police court yesterday, he be-
ing charged with assault and battery by
Miss Annie Chandler.
Iingic is employed in investing the funds
OF several capitalists. He recently organ
lied company to develop mining lands
in the Eloudike region. The circulars de-
ScrIhing the company and its lands Were
distributed throughout he country, and one
came into the hands OF Miss Chandler
Shc had secret longings to go to tile land
where gold is so plentiful, and here she
thought that She saw the desired oppor-
tnnity. She had position with a fer
tilizer firm in the McGil Building. Her
duties were those OF a stenographer and
typewriter. She conceived the idea of ap-
plying for the position of secretary to
Tmgle: whom she had heard would ac
company the gold prospectors. She ac-
cDrdlng Presented herself at TingIe's law
offlce and made formal applica tioI..
From this point the accounts OF the
two parties differ. Miss Chandler failed to
get the position, and was going when oc.
CURED an incident which led to Tingle's
arrest. The lawyer stated that he simply
tried to shake Miss Chambers hand, while
the lady alleges he did considera bly, more.
Miss Chandler Consulted her friends, and
a warrant for Tingle's arrest was sworn
out Patrolman Houglan served the war
rant on Tingle Saturday night, and the
lawyer accompanied the officer TO the
station house.
He deposited So collateral to insure his
appearance in the police court. There
was considerable comment by the friends
OF Miss Chandler that the deposit had not
been made larger, but this was thought
sufficient by the police, as they had not
been Informed of the nature of the case.
The case was called in the police court
yesterday, and Miss Chandler was ready
TO prosecute. Tingle, however, did not
appear. A writ of attachment was issued.
and Tingle will be compelled to answer
the charre.
