An Architectural Harmony.

Herewith we present a sketch of the
magnificent new marble palace, fifteen
stories in height, for THE CALL, to be
erected by Claus SpTeckels, on the corner
of Market and Third streets in this City.
Messrs. Reid Bros, the architects, are to
be congratulated for the originality of the
design, correct principles of constructive
lines and the harmonious composition of
one of the most difficult problems the mod
ern architect is called upon to solve.
Inc tower-llke appearance Will at once
attract attention. The size of the building
on the ground floor will be II by rs feet,
and the height 80 feet to the top of the
belvedere. 1t is thus seen that the build
ing will be SO nearly square that it may be
taken as square of seventy-one feet, its
full height then being little less than
four and half diameters, or tritie over
three diameters to the top of the square
portion where the circular drum of the
dome begins. AS said before, its general
appearance is that of an immense tower,
but the architect has ingeniously contrived
and so arranged the openings and details
as to add symmetry and beauty to the
otherwise uncouth block.
The first three stories will be OF granite
and the remaining upper portion OF white
marble. The two lower stories form a
pedestal and the third base for the shaft,
the next seven stories form the shaft
proper, which is nearly one and a half
diameters in height, and an appearance of

The Call Will Be at Home.

Saturdays issue of the San Francisco
CALL contained picture of the building
Claus Spreckels intends to build on the
corner of Market and Third streets.
The building will have frontage of
seventy-ive feet on Market street and sew
enty on Third. 1t will be a fine,
modern, handsome and dignifed ff-
teen-story building, crowned by a
mammoth dome. The building will be
80 feet high, eighty-fve feet higher than
the highest point of the Chronicle build
ing. The MORNING CALL will have its
home in this building. Mr.. Spreckels
paid $500, 900 for the corner, and the new
building will cost over $500, 900. THE CALL
will be at home in the finest newspaper
building west of New York City.-Trayer
Advocate.

early date the increase of business with
that splendid journal makes it necessary
to seek more spacious quarters. Accord
ingly new structure is to be erected for
its accommodation. The location selected is
at the corner of Third and Market streets.
Humboldters will not be sorry to learn of
the increasing business and prosperity of
THE CALL. Ever since Mr.. Shortridge
took the helm, THE CALL has been espe-
cially liberal to all localities, and has never
sighted Hum boldt in the least. This is,
however, more than we can say of other
metropolitan papers THE CALL is truly
friend of California and if it continues

additional strength has been given to this
portion by the finish of the two lower
tiers of windows. The next two stories
above the shaft are treated as an orna-
mental necking, and the finish of the thir-
tenth story forms the entablature, while
the fourteenth story is worked as an attic
story, with dome-topped turrets on the
four corners. The fifteenth story as the
drum of the dome, then the dome, the
belvedere with dome cap. and then over
all the flagstaff for the stars and stripes.
The style is Italian, modified to harmo-
nize with the general character of build

EcIipsing Newspaper Quarters.

Claus Spreckels is one of the most enter
prising and public-spirited men on the
coast. He was the principal leader in in
augurating the San Joaquin Valley Rail
road, and he is about to supplement his
efforts in building a splendid struc-
ture at the southwest corner of Market
and Third streets, San Francisco. Such
an example should serve as an impetus to
other wealthy citizens in making neces-
sary Improvements. Last Saturdays
edition of The CALL contained full de-
scription of the gigantic and ornamental
building which Mr.. Spreckels will erect
for that popular newspaper. The struc-
ture will, unquestionably, eclipse that of
any other newspaper quarters of the
world. We extend our congratulations to
THE CALL on the prospects it has in Sc
curing a conspicuous building, and hope
its sphere of usefulness will continue to in
crease.-Solano Republican.

Catered to the Interior of the State.
The San Francisco CALL has had
phenomenal growth since Charles M.
Shortridge has had control of it. He has
catered to the interior of the State, and the
result has shown his sagacity all through,
AT first the other bay editors looked upon
Shortridge and his work as something
grotesque and made fun of him, but
when they found he was cutting in
on their subscription lists at terrible rate
they began to attempt to follow in his
steps, but were much too late-he had cap
tured the territory and has held it. Now,
The CALL is going to have the most mag
nificent newspaper building on the coast,
fifteen stories high, and situated on the cor
ner of Third and Market streets. 1t will be
perfect in all its appointments and will cost

Near Heaven While Alive.
THE MORNING CALL is to have fifteen
story palatial building to be housed in, and
the editors, it is said, will be housed on
the top floor. The reason for this up-iift is
due to the proprietor's desire to get the
writer's as near heaven as possible on this
mundane sphere, for after their demise
there is no telling where they will be To-
cated.-San Francisco Manufacturer and

California, and especially San Francisco
and vicinity, should not feel grateful
toward Charles M. Shortridge, the present
proprietor of THE CALL. Ever since he

worth the space which was devoted to it's

80 feet in height, and, measured by
stories, fifteen stories high. The structure
will be composed almost entirely of mar

the estimation of the reading public until
to-day it is pronounced by thousands to be
the leader. And now another great stride
forward is to be made. A handsome
marble palace, to eclipse anything in the
building art on the Pacific Coast, will
shortly be built on the corner of Third and

silurianism and passed into the capable
hands of Charles NJ. Shortridge, las taken
