HOMES IN VEDADOâResidence of former Minister from China to Cuba. Ouinta a orillas del mar en el Vedado, un barrio de la Habana, propiedad del Sr. Liao Ngantow, ex nVinistro enviado de China en Cuba. El edificio es obra de arquitectos y decoradores cubanos. Seaside Villa in Vedado of Mr. Liao Ngantow, ex-Minister from China to Cuba. This seaside villa in the Vedado is unique and beautiful, and Cuban architects and art- ists have carried out the building and dec- oration plans. It is a three-story building, with a tower of turrets and slate roof of variegated hue in contrast to gray stone and white columns outside. The grounds are laid out with tropical plants and flowers, and the chief attraction is a Chinese boat house, surrounded by an artificial lake and a rustic bridge and grotto beyond, with a passage leading to the din- ing room. The boat house is luxuriously furnished in teakwood inlaid in mother of pearl, and there are handsome panels in Chinese script, original compositions of Mr. Liao, who is a poet. Mr. Liao has a charming wife who speaks. English fluently, and they have nine chil- dren. Their eldest son was at school in the United for some time. The Electric Light & Traction Co. of Santiago de Cuba will build a new wharf in En Senada de Salinas, near the city of Santiago. Plans are being prepared for the exten- sion of the Sagua R.
