DAILY ENQUIRER - SUN : COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, SATURDAY MORNING SEPTEMBER 25, 1883. How it Has Been Renovated in the Ab sence of the President. The Killin' Ulterior of the tliiililliiir I’nllifc.' While ,1 Marked I’raelleal Improtenicnt Made. Itiinms of the IIIITerenl I n match. Washington Pont, 16tli. The whito house is being painted and decorated anew inside and outside and overhauled ns has not been done for several years. Although the workmen have been busy ever since the president left town, It will be several weeks yet before all the re pairs, renovation nnd alterations will be completed. But care has been taken to attend first to those moru private portions of the mansion which are appropriated to t he personal use of the president and Mrs. Cleveland, and no matter how soon the president returns to Washington he will find them ready for him. The entire ex terior of the building has been painted so white ns to justify the popular name of the executive mansion. The iron fences around the house have been painted and the spears on top of the fences have been gilded. Inside, all the carpets have been lifted from the floors, thoroughly cleaned, and curefully put down again. None of the rooms have teen entirely repainted, but the walls, ceilings nnd cornices each have been touched up with paint and a gold leaf, and one or two more obscure rooms, such as Mrs. Cleveland’s room, have had their ceilings newly papered. The room which has come to be named Mrs. Cleveland’s room, from the fact that she occupied it while she was mistress of the white house, is on the second floor, nenr the southwest oorner of the building. It is the room where President Garfield lay during his illness, and it is the room which Mrs. Fol som now occupies when she comes to To the west of it there is a Washington. long, narrow apartment, used os a dress ing room on suite. On the cast also, look ing out southward upon the White Lot and the Potomac, is tho state bedroom, with massive rosewood furniture, crimson hanging, and high over the head of tho bed a gilded canopy like that which caps a royal throne. This is the Prince of Wales’ room, at least thut is the room his royal highness occupied when he was tho guest of the white house. In many respects the upper story of the Executive Mansion is most interesting, mainly perhaps, becuuse being more pri vate it is less accessible than the apart ments on the ground floor. A marked practical improvement has been made in the main corridor up stairs, where tick several antique clocks nnd the walls of which, like the walls of the main corridor on the ground floor, are decked with life- sized paintings of former occupants of the White House, varied by busts of distin- f uished men on brackets or in niches. Ir. Cleveland’s principal contribution to the art ornaments of the upper corridor is a stucco bust of the late Vice-President Hendricks, which is a very good likeness. Reaching the second floor by the main staircase, which rises at the western end of the grand corridor on the ground floor, and walking along the second lioor corri dor from west to east, the first room on tlie south side is Miss Cleveland’s bedroom, with boudoir attached, then the prince of Wales’ room, then tho president’s oiflCe and library, then the cabinet room, then j another room or two where clerical work ! is done. Opposite Miss Cleveland’s room, oil the north side of the corridor, is the president’s bedroom. Adjoining it and corresponding to Miss Cleveland’s boudoir is a narrow apartment which Mrs. Cleveland uses for a dressing room. She used it as such before she went away, and willlfind it ready to be used as such when she returns. But the i ftirniture has been entirely changed. Only I the pictures on the wall remain as she left them, and the little hundred-year-old j Hutch eloek, which she brought from Europe. The pictures on the wall are a large crayon of the president, which gets the place of honor over the little white marble fireplace; a crayon of her brother, taken when he was a handsome young man, with a Hue, heavy mustache; a small steel engraving of Mr. W. H. Bissoll, Mr. Clevciaim’s law partner, and a photo graphic group of the Folsom family. The room is in t he north westcorner of the build ing and h e. on window looking out toward Pennsylvan a avenue and another looking toward tlic state, war and navy building. •The furniture of the room is not extruva guilt, but it. has been selected with taste, neatly arranged, and the room is cheery. The principal articles of furniture are a very plain bureau with mirror, a full length mirror in the corner, a small cabi net, a smaller writing desk, an easy chair in faded green and pale pink near the bureau, a',nl a couch with pale pink cov ering in another part of the room. Una stand near tile front window there is a very line dressing ease, containing some dozens of articles all mounted in amber. It is a wedding present from a dear friend, and the ease is kept. open. If Mrs. Cleve land left many little kniekknacks there when she went away they have all been removed during her abseence. The rooms on the north side of the eor- ' ridor, beginning at the west and coming I east are die president’s bedroom, with Mrs. Cleveland's dressing room adjoining on one side and Mr. Cleveland’s bathroom oil tlie other; the blue bedroom, which, used to lie occupied by Nellie Arthur; Mrs. | Cleveland’s maid’s bedroom, a long liar- row room with one window looking under ! the roof of the front portico, and another spare bedroom. Tlie president’s bedroom lias had a new ' coat of paint. There is a fine portrait of the president on the wall, and on the man- i tel a ratline; photograph of Bismarck and another of Col. Lamont. In front of tlie marble clock on the mantel there is a pair of tiny oars tied together with a little piece of blue ribbon, and oil the blades of the oars is scribbled the inscription, “Saranac Lake. 1885,” In that part of the mansion : which is tlie especial dominion of Mrs. Clcv .'laud, the president’s picture, in all sn.i: *cs and sizes and colors, stands out con spicuous wherever a peg can be found to hnng it on. New luce curtains have been supplied lor tlie east room, the green parlor, the red parlor, tlie private dining room, the I president’s bedroom, Mrs. Cleveland’s dressing room and the state bedroom. Tbe private dining room is the only room in the house that 1ms a now carpet. None | of tlie frescoed walls have been touched, and tlie fancy ceilings of the rooms on tlie ('round floor, done by Tuflany, of New York, in President Arthur’s time, have not been renovated. The dadoes, cornices and borders in the green and red parlors have been touched up and fresh gilding has been applied wherever needed. None o f the furniture has lmd anything done to u. The numerous gasaliers all over the bouse have been taken down, washed, pol ished and put up again. There are 15,IKK) pieces of glass in the three crystal gasa liers of the east room. The carved man tels and mirror frames, tlie fluted Cor inthian pillars, with carved capitals, and the cornices and decorative girders of the east room have received a fresh coat of white and gold, which makes the entire room look bright nnd new. Somebody has raised the alarm that the blue room is being destroyed; that instead of a delicate robin’s-egg blue the dado lias b'en painted indigo. Of course it lues been painted indigo or some such shade of blue, but that is to lie followed by one or two more coats of paint, which reproduced the tint that Taffany applied, except that it is a little paler and more delicate to suit the coloring on the wall above the dado, where it has faded slightly in the sun. The stair cases have all been newly varnished, and the wood work generally about the house has been touched up. A new grauolito floor has been put down in the conservatory instead of the decayed asphalt, which, although good enough for the open street, does not answer in a con servatory. A good deal of the decayed wood work of tlie conservatory is being re paired, end the whole will be painted white like the house, hut Chief Gardener Blister says that the conservatory needs an entirely new superstructure, and that the tinkering that is being done to it Is en tirely inadequate. Stoam heating Is being substituted for hot water pipes. Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey and Duffy’s Formula. 14:i ( ATHRKiNr. St., Kmzaoktij, K.j, Sir*— My frouiik! has foren chronic m.ilarla.
