In structure and in decoration one
of the finest in Topeka, or in Kansas,
is the home of-N. B. Burge, 909 To-
peka avenue. which is now occupied by
the owner after nearly a year spent in
construction. With only the best of
material used thruout the house, it is
estimated to have cost more than
$4,000. 1t is located where the old
Kouns and J. w. Going home stood
for many years, until it was destroyed
by fire.
It is of brown brocade brick and
Silverdale stone, a stone found in Kan
sas. A particularly interesting fact to
Topeka is that practically all the ma
terial used in the house was purchased
in Topeka or thru Topeka agencies.
In architecture and in furnishings
the home is not ornate. It adheres to
simple but carefully. chosen, artistic
style and finish. Instructions to the
builder were to use the best quality of
material and workmanship to be
of. the most solidly constructed, as well
as valuable, homes in the city.
