tempting to kill Oeudato Londl, in It.il

SELL MIDDLE OF HOUSE.
Front Door of Miller & Rho?ds's
Store to Highest Bidder.
No little comment has been caused In
real estate circle; in fact, business clr
cls generally, by an advertisement which
appears In another column of thla paper,
in which Mr. Vf, B. Pizzini, real eat.no
agent; advertises to sell at auction
Thursday afternoon next ihn Broad
Street entrance, to the large dry goods
si ?re of Miller & Rhaods. As the sale uf
the center of a house in Richmond Is 11
most unusuul thing, possibly without a
parallel in years, Mr. Pizzini was asked
for an explanation. He said:
"Tho largo store now occupied by
Messrs. Miller & Rhoads Is built upon the
site of three former stores, all of which
were owned by separate parties. When
they ,v.0re torn down to make way for
the new singlo store, each of the three
owners erected their respective port Iona
of the now store, and It was leased as a
whole to Messrs, Miller & Rhoads on
completion. Mrs. Caroline Straus, who
owned tho center lot, has died, and In
order lo partition her esime amongst the
heirs it has become nocessary to sell No.
013 East Broad Streot. The property is
no fiit'iv.r, ,??,-fim any other piece of real
estate on milch a housu In located, with
the exception of the fact tliat th??re are
no side wnlls to the house. The founda?
tions, floors, roof and front and' back
walls, o? courso, all go with the lot at
tho sale."
