The Mnnnntc Ien,Dle.

A Philadelphia letter to the New
York Post says.
The most prominent Of these struc-
lures is the new Masonic Temple, which
extends from Broad TO Juniper street
1t is an immense building Of gray gran =
ite, and of a somewhat composite sty le
OF architecture, in which the round
Saxon arch prevails The details Of
the facade are Of the style which WAS
in vogue among the architects Of the
period which proceeded the Gothic.
The "dog.tooth" ornament and the
diamond-shaped panels are go modified
as to present designs symbolical OF Ma
sonry without detractipg from the main
features Of the style The deeply
recessed porch is work OF great beauty.
The whole building impresses the
beholder by it's appearance OF unusual
solidity, the lower walls spreading out
as in Egytian buildings. The tower of
the temple has awaken come criticism
1t is certainly quite different in style
from the rest OF the building, recalling
the appearance OF certain belfries to be
found in the town OF Belgium. 1t is
larger at the top than in the middle
and is surmounted by four irregular
pinnscles.
The interior Of these temples said to
be very gorgeous. There are Coyin~
than. Doric, Ionic and other rooms in
special orders OF architecture. Those
who are versed in the principles Of
Freemssonsry perceive a subtle pro-
priety 10 all these styles Of apartments
The building will be completed this
summer. and will undoubtedly rival the
massive splendor OF Girsrd College in
attracting the attention of the tourist,
and in awakening the pride oI Phila'
ielphians.
