TILDEN’S CITY PALACE, A House That Will Cost $500,000. MOW MONEY HAS BEEN LAVISHED ON THE ART DECORATIONS OF THE NEW EDIFICE ON GRA- MERCY PARK—WHAT A $35,000 DINING-ROOM LOOKS LIKE. Special Correspondence of The Philadelphia Times, New York, September 17. While the unsubdued Pashas of the Tammany and Irving Hall tribes are drilling their Bedou- Ins for active service at the state democratic convention in Syracuse, “Uncle Sammy” Tilden, New York’s political Khedive, is in retirement, wrestling with a private’ architectural problem. A year or so agohe decided to transform his famous Gramercy Park retreat into a mansion that would throw Vanderbilt’s new palace com- pletely in the shade. At that time it was said that the house, with its owner and other curios, was to forma a sort of matrimonial prize package for a St. Louis belle, but as there is no nursery in the edifice the story is now believed to have been made out of the whole cloth. Be that as it may, the mansion is undoubtedly the hobby of Mr. Tilden’s life, and when completed it will ¢ haif a million dollars country. iths past he has spent one or two days every week in his architectural temple, and when he does not appear en the scene of action he sends down tri-weekly docu- ments of instruction from his five million dollar — Mrs. Langtry Is expected in New York | place on the Hudson.

Of all the rooms in the house, however. the dining hall is the most handsome. It is thirty- five feet square and has a vaulted ceiling. This is believed to be the finest dining-room in the country, and although $35,000 have been ex- pended in decorating it the work is not near finished. DECORATIONS OF THE DINING HALL. ‘This room Is in Mr. Tilden’s former residence and has tor years been noted as a beautiful apartment—so beautiful, in fact, that the owner would not consent to any changes in the dado or the French walnut, bird’s-eye maple and ebony base of the hall. The top of the room is covered by a gorgeous canopy of light blue and gold, and the magnificent center piece consists of solid carving in bold relief in sandal-wood. The idea of animate lire in the decorations has bean followed as consistently in this center- piece as it is on the exterior of the buiiding, and the sandal-wood is covered with the same charming pictures of birds and masses of wav- ing boughs. Above the follage isa backing of gold leaf on the body of the sandal-wood, which reflects an indescribably softand golden light on everything below. The semi-circles over the huge mirrors which line the walls are similarly decorated. The other parts of the ceiling are covered with a delicate diaper-work made up of arrow strips of the carved and gold-back san- dal-wood, crossing each other diagonally and framing light blue porcelain tiles. No money has been spared in beautifying this apartment, and no fornt of plant or bird life seems to be considered too intricate or too minute for truth- ful representation. One of the most striking features about this art work is the endless vari- ty of the subjects, no two forms of plant or an- imal life being represented in any part of the Toom. hall ceiling 1s gorgeously frescoed, and its a pack feet wide and Th polished granite and pink. sandstone walls are beautifled by artistic designs.

How a Hostile Meeting of Two Editors Ended in a Withdrawal Without Fighting. Tne Star last week printed sundry tele- graphic dispatches concerning a challenge which had passed between Samuel Purdy, edi- tor of the Tombstone Epitaph, and William Her- ring, editor of the Arizona Republican. The hostile meeting ended rather lamely in a disa- greement about pistols.

Turfmen Still Discussing the Alicged Performance at Hartiord, From the ow York hie. The alleged performance of a mile in 2:1614 by Mr. W. derbilt’s team at Hartford last week continues to bea topicot discussion among turfmen.and it is the unanimous opinion that no such record was made, and that Mr. Vanderbilt, in endeavoring to prom! » alleged ree- ord, has descended to very small business. Mr. Jos. Harker, who has had a vei ve expe- rience as an owner of trottin 3 not credit the performance, impos- sible under the condi ed. Another an expressed his He declare yphath ory em : i t horse, singly, had a_ prev: three seconds of the time given. ht that such an attempt to feist records upon the public were injurious to the best interests ot the turf, and that the value of trotting ho if records were tobe made in this maz would speediiy decline. He said that the agement of the Hartford track might, as the next step, publish the advertisement, ‘Records sold here,” and go into the business regularly of creating records to suit owners. It turns ont that after the alleged performance at Hartford the trainer of the team, Bair, te! graphed to W. H. Vanderbilt, who-was at New port, of the trial and the time; whereupon Mr. Vanderbilt in turn telegraphed to a henchman of his in this city: Bair telegraphs that Early Rose and Aldine trotted this morning at Hertford in 2:1635; be sure and get this in the Herald to-morrow moraine, H. VaNpenninr. “Get this in the Herald.” said an old turfman, “farnishes the key to the whole affair. Mr. Vanderbilt has not been able to buy, with all his wealth, a team of hotses that can compete with the team owned by Mr. Frank Work; and this has so annoyed him that he has sought to accom- plish on paper that which he could not do as a matter of fact.” Mr. Work, it is said, is willing to wager Mr. Vanderbilt any amount of money that the team cannot trot in 2:18 over the Fleet- wood course, and it is thought Mr. Vanderbilt will not accept the wager If offered. ——_—_—_-e-—______ Who Are In Earnest. Washington Correspondence Cincinnati Gazette. The defendants have expressed the belief that if there should be a new trial they would not have to be tried by Judge Wylie. There is no reason to think they could expect any greater leniency from any other member of the District judiciary, For whatever may be said ot Wash- ington jurors, there is no abler or purer bench in the country than that which 1s composed of Chief Justice Cartter, Justices Wylle, Cox, Hag- ner and McArthur. Judg@ Wylie holds the criminal “term of the court until next March, and he intends to bring the star route cases up for trial In December next. He will do this not- withstanding that he has had no vacation this summer, and is a pretty old man to endure such continuous arduous labor. Whether there will be any changein the government’s counsel is not known. George Bliss, with his $49,000 in fees, 1s not generally credited with so much enthusiasm ag the attorneys are with one-tenth that sum, and it is even remembered now that in his argument. to the jury he had nothing to say as to Dorsey, andthat the so-called compromise with the Sauisbury contractors, the men who, if there was anything stolen from the government, prob- ably received more than any one else, was prac- tically made without the knowledge or approval of the other government counsel. Mr. Bliss is credited, however, with stating that he is anxious that the trial shal! proceed, but it is evident that the government counsel have not been entirely a unit in the trial. Mr. Merrick is very enthusiastic to proceed and betrays even more zeal than he has throughout this remarkable trial. He says that he proposes to stay here now until the end, and expresses the belief that some of the defendants, and pos- sibly some of the jury just dismissed, may see the penitentiary. He intends to remain in the case if the government fs in earnest, and of this there can be no doubt, at least so. far as the De- persnene of Justice is concerned. The Presi- lent is rarely heard from as to the star route cases, but Judge Wylie is in earnest, and is de- termined that so far as lies within the power of a judge, the real offenders shall be punished. His position as to the star route defendants is well known, and as to the charges of bribery, he has already stated that if the persons making the cSters: shall be convicted the court will not fail to do its duty, — Admtration: ‘How do our church music, by the way?” inquired the deacon of the lish young lady. “T just ad- mire ie er ork That bea song, ‘spirit, Oh Genteel,’ just sulted me.” And she salled out of the vestibule with the most gen- -a-fifteen-dajlar parasol air imagi- Globe. baa teel nable.—: —A medical matter: An old lady, hearing that John Bright contemplated visiting this country, pepet that he wouldn’t bring his “dis- ease” with him.— Norristown Herald. —Unele Rube’s philosphy: “Ef yer want ter make a ’oman mad an’ appear pleased, tell her ob a fault; but ef yer wanster make her pleased an’ appear mad,.tell her dat’she’s good lookin’.” Arkansas Traveller. v — Young America: “What is it about the Star routes, pa?” quer'ed che irrepressible at tea last evening. “Are the astronqmers fixing up new orbits for the planets?” “No, my son, the jury has fixed up a new way for rascals to get clear.
