These spocimens wero presented to the hotel by Charles W. Kitchon, proprietor of the railway hotels ai Liar- amie, Green River and Kvanston, THE READING ROOM, On the east of the Farnam street entrance is located the reading room, which has a handsome tile floor, and it is furnished with elaborate desks and easy chairs, and lighted with chan- doners, Here 18 a magmhcenc piece of furniture in the shape of an adver- ning. Consmdering the many obatacles that wers men with owing to a very cutny wod othorwise uatavorable fall, the work has been quickly done, but at the same time very carefuly exe. cuted, The mild weather during the winter favored the pushing torward of the euterpriss and the enclosing of the structure, 1t has been the deter- wnation of the Me Kicchen to construct & substantial firsi-class hotel, second to none in the west, and it is the general opision of those who have watched the erectivn of this mammoth buiiding that they have succeeded The buiding 18 132 teet rquure, cov- ering the site of the old Graud Cen- tral hotel, at the southwest corner of Farnam and Fourteenth strcets, and couvsists of tivo stories and a base- ment, 1o 18 constructed of brick, stone aud iron, in the most solid und workmanlike manner Theee mllions and a halt of brick and twenty tons of wron huve been used 1 the construc tion. The walls of the house have been built with w view of substsntiali- ty rather than ornumentation, and are of tho most masrive character, being iuches at the bake, sud gradually lwsening to 18 inches at the tup They rest on o heavy stone founda- 1on two feet deep, seven feet wide, wd grouted in cement.

T¢ has un- dergone & complete transformation, and iy now recogmized as the most besutiful bulding of the kind to be found m the west anywhere, using dusk, furnished by a St Joe tirm, and containing the cards of all of Omaha's prominent business men.

THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING, No protentious have been made at elaborate architecturc, the mam ob- ject having been to erect a heavy, mas. sive and substavtial building The architecture differs materially from that of any other public building, and on this account it looked rather odd at first to many of our citizons, who, however, have now become used to it and tind much in iv to admire. Tt has been tuck pointed with white joints, and the green decoration of the won work forms a very pleasant con- trast, THE IRON BALCONIES on Farnam and Fourteenth streets are vine feet wide aud forty feet long on each flyor, for three stories. THE BAR. On the west sute of the Farnam street eutrance 1s the bar-room, which has a marble floor, and a beaut:- ful mantel, wich sporting designs, The bar is fitted up 1u the mont slab- orate atyle, and will eclipse anything of the kind in the west, The billiard rocm adjoins the bar-room, Both are finished 1n heavy black walnut, with puper to mateh, elegantchandiliersand ail the et ceteras, The bar is fitted up with the finest giassware, of the latest designs, and 18 a marvel of beauty und elggance.

Withuell Brothers, of Omaha, did the plastering aud decorations M K. Herbert, of St. Joe, furnished and put in the steam beatiug and gas fiting and plumbiog, TUE INVESTMENT in the enterprise is somewhat larger than was at fivet intended, ana the result is that the Paxton 18 & much grander house in every respect thar anyvody in Omsha had any idea of. The building cost $200,000, the ground §30,000, and the furniture #00,000, making a total investment of $260,000, THE GRAND OPENING, The formal opeving of the new house will cccur to-day, and prelim- inary to this the house was last even- A large number of distis puisted speakers | D& brilliantly illumioated and the from diffrent pavte of the Uuivn will be present. inspection and criticism of the public mounted by bronze statuary with a slobo gas lamp.

The parlor is arranged " in & very novel and attractive manuer, It is located in the east part of the build. ing, and is 182 feet long and has an averago width of 30 feet. Handsome iron and plaster columus support the ceiling, aud the finish is of the eame attractive style of the diniug room Open arches connect the parlors with the balcony, which circles around the rotunda, from which a splendid view of the office below is obtained, The parlor and the rotunda provide a most delightful promenade. Qorridors nine foot wide extend from the parlor on both sides to the grand staircase, Six private parlors open iuto the public parlor, and they can all be thrown into ono or used separately. The ladies’ bath rooms, lavatories, dressing rooms, ete , are at tho west end of this flior, directly over the similar apartwents of the first floor for gentlomen, There is a staircase from the parlor directly to the ladies' ordinary. The pussenger elevator lnun{ing is in an alcove in the main parlor, which is also used as a hall of passage way to the balcony outside, THE THIRD FLOOK balcouies are supported by three tiers of ten iron columus, and enclosed with handsome railings. Gas lamps are placed on each balcony, and in case of a political meeting no beter speaker’s stand can be obtained anywhere. THE ¥URNISHING, The house is furnistied on the same elaborate and tasteful scale on which it has been constracted The entire respousibility in this department was left to the woll known firm of Dewey & Stone, and well have they performed their work. The elezant carpets, fur- niture and chaundelieraall came from their hands, and the proprietors are well satisfied with the promptness and despatch with which they tultilled their duty, and tho thoroughly first- class style in which all was done, 1f there is one lesson taught in the com- pletion of this new house, it in that with such firms as'Dewey & Sione, a necessity no longer exists for going away from home or sending to eastern bouses our ordere, when they can fur- nish everything that is in good taste, the best of material and of o luxurious and elaborate character that would vio with the Tuileries in its unexcep- tionable character, SOFT AS EIDER DOWN are the beautiful Wilton carpets which muflls one’s footsteps in the corridors and patlors and in muny of the rooms; The brussels in the remainder of the rooms are of latest desigus and one excellent feature is that no two put- terns are alike.

It may be said in general that the rooms are furnished in real and American mahogany, acd in Wilton and body brussels, i all of which it would be impossible for the most exacting to pick & flaw.
