M. NJ. TAPLIN.
NJ. M. Taplin of the firm of Taplin
& Rowell erected very pretty and
sensible house on his lot on South
Avenue just, above the Taplin &
Rowell stables last summer. Mrs
Taplin had charge of SUPPLYING
material and selecting plans and
showed her good taste along building
lines in erecting a house with large
rooms which have the home-like ap
pearance and good supply of sun
light and air. The house is 2Sx3S feet
with cemented cellar under the whole.
On the first floor are six rooms and
on the second are FIVE with hathroom
and ball. Most of the rooms are
finished in hard wood and the parlor
in white enamel. The location is

BARTON LANDING.

Last year about this time the
MONITOR gave review of the years
building in Barton Landing for 1904
which showed an exceptionally large
growth for that year, but 1905 comes
to the front with still greater building
activities. The past year has seen
the erection of about twenty build
ings, exclusive of private barns,
besides numerous repairs, the com
pletion of Darling's block and the
commencing of the large cold storage
building now under construction by
the J. G Turnbull Co. The dwellings
number seventeen.
While the building activities indi-
cate the,prosperity of town quicker
than any other one thing, many signs
of growth have been seen recently
Among them is the establishing of a
bank, the establishment of lecture
course, the increase of the postmas-
ter's salary, which chronicles the
SIOWtu vi bhC 1udlI Ou5ihCoS, duo phO
establishing OF several new businesses.
These new businesses are: Rood &
Willey,s meat business, W. M. Little's
livery, w. i. Regan's quick lunch
and w. E. Sawyer, the new grocer.
1t might be interesting too at t lis
time to note the business changes
during the p asst year. AS pointed out
to the MONITOR they are as follows:
Brown & Skinner sold the feed busi-
ness to the j. G. Turnbull Co., F. d.
Clement sold his jewelry busine So to
F. M. Allchurch, the Tripr Brothers
purchased the Lothrop livery bust
ness, A. o. Austin bought of H. s.
Webster the pharmacists business,
Hoyt & Harris sold the gents cloth
ing business to G. E. Dean of West
Burke, Bert Dean of the firm of Dean
& Mathews sold his interest in the
feed business to Mr.. Mathews and is
now manager,of the G. E. Dean cloth.

store was purchased by Miss M. A.

tenements are well finished in hard
wood and convenient. From the
plate glass windows in the tene ment
next the street an excellent view of
Main street and the valley toward
Barton is obtained, and the bay
window finished in the corner tower
makes slightly and coy room. The
other tenement is equally as we'll
finished with view from the back of
block. The Third floor is finished
into hall 40x4s feet used for dances
and entertainments. The floor is
finished in hard pine. At the back
of the hall is balcony and two cloak
rooms. The tower at the back of the
block serves as 8 place for the stairs
and wood sheds without TAKING room.
from the main building. The building
is surrounded by broad piazza on
the two street sides and each floor il
reached without Interference with
the others, making each floor entirely
independent of the others. Mr.. Oar.
ling has also built a large barn at the
back of the block. A glance at the
cut will give the reader good idea
of the outside of the building.
MRS. MARY E. RICHMOND.
The house in which Mr.. and Mrs.
r. A. Bean reside on High Street was
erected last summer by Mrs. Mary E.
Richmond, Mrs. Beams mother, who
resides with them. This is a very
neat and convenient house 28x36 feet
with cellar under the whole house.
There are five rooms on the first floor.
all of which are finished in the natural
wood. The second floor is finished
off into five rooms with bathroom.
The view from this house is yerv
pleasant and it is an exec ptionaI,y
comfortable home. The house is
heated with Brien furnace and was
built by O. E. Gay.
G. S. DODGE.
In speaking of coy houses one is at
once reminded of G. S. Dodge's new
house on Willoughby street. The
location is central and 80 situated
that no additional buildings in the
future can mar the splendid view of

room. The windows are plate glass.
On the second floor are four rooms
and a bathroom and hall. These
rooms are finished in the natural
wood except two which are finished
in white enamel. There are two
rooms and a storeroom on the third
floor. There are two verandas, one
at the front and one at the back of
the house, the one at the front ex-
tending around the corners. A 21x25
foot barn was also built. E. Ell. Cotton
was the head builder.
F.C. BROWN.
The best dwelling erected in Barton
L lnding the past year and one of the
best ia town ia thai built. by &c.
Brown at the upper end of Water
Street. From basement to garrett the
building is furnis h d in thu most
thorough and artistic manner and
nothing but the best of material has
been used. The cellar extends under
the whole house, which is 29x29 feet
with an ell 15x23 feet, and is finished
off into vegetable cellar, laundry
and general cellar with cement floors.
The house is heated with Brien fur
mace and every room has hot and
cold air pipe connected with the
b ajer which gives each room the
best possible chancs to heat quickly
and keep the air pure. The plumb
ing is also done in most thorough
way; each room having water has a
separate shut-off so the water in any
room may be shut off without stop
ping it in any other part of the house.
There are six rooms on the first floor,
all finished in hard wood with hard
wood floors. The finish is oak, birch
and ash, and the fine effects produced
with these woods can only be appre-
ciated when seen. The second floor
contains five rooms and a bathroom
md linen closet, all finished in hard
wood with hard wood floors, and in
the attic of the third floor has been
finished an observatory from which
view nearly to Newport village can
be had and the view south and over
the village is complete. The view

clothing business of @. A. Wheeler,
Miss Dora NJ. Pudvah bought an
interest in Miss Anna j.. Bassett's
millinery store and A. D. Beede of the
former firm of Beede & Cowles has
purchased Mr.. Cowles' interest in tie
business.
In writing this article it is -impossi-
bic to begin exactly with the first Of
one January and leave off at precisely
the last of the following December
bat in this mention we have en-
deayored to note the building and
business changes coming principally
in 1905. The. Rood & Wiley market
while completed during 1905 has been
given complete description hersto-
fore in the locals and the large cold
storage building under construction
by the Turnbull 90. is not yet COM
plete enough to describe, so these two
buildings will not be mentioned at
this time. E. G. Darling's block was
mentioned last year but has been
mostly completed in 1905, thus we
give description of it.
Space will not permit of detailed
description of the large number of
buildings put up but we submit these
short descriptions that some record
of the remarkable growth of the town
may be had.
E. G. DARLTNG'S BLOCK.
This block characterized as being
at ''the wrong end of Main Street" is
4Ox60 feet and four stories high.
The lot on which the building stands
was converted from a bog hole to
good building lot at large expense
Tor filing and grading. The building
Is well finished and thoroughly built,
lighted with electricity, heated with
stoves, and has the modern improve.
ments in plumbing. The basement is
finished into billiard room. barber
shop, rooms for tin or harness chop
and a dining room and kitchen
designed for use in connection with
the hall on the third floor. The
hrst floor is finished of into two
modern, well lighted and convenient
stores with large display windows.
The second floor Is finished into TOO
tene ments, one of which NIr. Darling
occupies and one is rented. These

MORE LIBRIRY DELAY.
Bryant Park Structure UM Not BE
Ready for Use Nert Year.

New York City has again been disappointed
by the builders of the New York Public Library
building in Bryant Park In spite of past de-
lays those associated in its construction had
promised that the ediice would surely be
ready for occupancy in 1907. But So slowly is
the work advancing that the structure may not
be completed for still another year. Such. at
least, is the opinion of a high official of the
New York Public Library, who said yesterday
Not even all the marble is in place OF the
exterior there is still per cent of the marble
work unfinished. and there remains still to be
done in the interior the cutting and setting of
the large vault over the Fifth avenue rotunda
and the steps. AS to the completion of the
woodwork and the furnishings. / can only guess.
We may move in by 1905 and it may be still
later"
The snail-like progress which has been made
by the builders of the new library may be real
lied when one reckons up how many years have
passed since work was first begun. 1t was in
November, 1897. just nine years ago, that the
