the same basis as those in larger
cities Is now ready for occupancy, In
fact some Of the rooms have now oc
cupants but the actual opening Of the
portion now f-ished will not occur

push and forethought Of one Of our
citizens Is the "Otis" apartment
house on Pearl street erected by D. n.
Hale, the we'll known auctioneer.
On the ground floor three medium
sized stores are placed sufficiently
large for tailor shop, order business
or millinery buslnesS The floors
above are given over to sleeping apart
ments for roomers. The block can be
made an ideal bachelors quarters.

press and cedar with hard wood aoort

rooms are all furnished with new fur
niture purchased expressly from the

has key so that 1t will not be neces-
sary to have the door open all the time.
On all the stair ways solid brass
rail will be run for safety. Broad pi-
azzas for both back and front tend to
make this venture one OF the best In
the building line ever attempted In
Barre. The block is to be heated
throughout by steam with q janitor to
look after the comforts Of the
patrons. 1t is Mr.. Hale's strict rule
that In this way he can run an apart
ment house in strictly first class
manner, in other words, any person
wishing to take room must be well
known or be well recommended.
Ample protection il made for lre
there being stairways leading from
the back part OF the house from the
root to the ground and also from the
front.
The carpenter who had charge Of
the work was Mr.. o. r. Russ, fore
man for c. L. bugbee, the contractor
and builder OF the building. The
plumbing and heating and the boiler
work WAS supplied by Phelps Bros,
while the electric wiring was furnish
ed by Nichols & Bennett of the Stan.
