STABLE AND CARRIAGE HOUSE.

Elegant Design of a House Suitable for a Rich Man’s Horse. This design was prepared by Palliser, Palliser & Co. for erection in connection with a proposed residence at Seaside Park, Bridgeport, Conn., and is arranged to suit the requirements of individual wants as well as the peculiarities of the site. There is a cellar built under carriage house, which will be found useful for the storage of vegetables, roots, etc., and the carriage house being arranged to drive through, makes it very convenient for every-day use, as well as utilizing the room. The shed is de-

signed as a shelter for horse and carriage, so that the horse can be fed noon times without unhitching. The two stalls and box stall give ample room for two or three horses, while there is room enough for three carriages. On second story is provided a man’s chamber, hay-loft and feedroom—the feed bins being built into position and having chutes down to stable below.

The building is of wood, frame sheathed, and lower or first story clapboarded and shingled above, root slated. The ventilator is connected with stable below by means of wooden vent pipes, and thoroughly ventilates the whole building. Harness-room has an open fire-place, the chimney running up through man’s room on second floor. The hay-racks, mangers and stable fixtures are of iron. Water is supplied ou first floor. Tbe har-

ness-room is fitted up with the necessary hooks, pins, etc., for hanging and storing harness. The whole built in a first-class manner at a cost of SBSO, and makes a neat building for the purpose.
