THE GREAT DAILY
OF San Antonio Now in It's Hand
some New Home.

Below THE HERALD presents to It's
readers an interesting description
and fine cut of the new building of
the San Antonio Daily Express. switch
is pronounced one of the handsomest
and most substantial newspaper edi-
fees in the South.
The new home of the Express is a
handsome three story building with
all modern conyeniences, situated in
the very centre of the city.
The building is three stories above
a basement, is an irregular pOlygon
in shape, having frontage of II
feet on Crockett street, IS feet on
Navarro street, 50 feet on the river
and two rear sides of 81 and Is feet.
1t has total floor area of about TO-
900 feet. The base of the building
Is of red sandstone. which runs up
to the sills of the first floor. From
there buff colored brick is used,
crowned at the second story with a
red sandstone cornice.
The second and third stories are
treated as one mass, with piers run
ming up through the whole height,
supporting brown rack-faced brick
arches and crowned with handsome
copper cornice and brick parapet
walls.
The main entrance to the building,
which admits into the business Office,
is on the corner of Crockett and Ma
yarro streets.

SOME sort of charges, the ma
ture of which remains a mystic

THANKS to the legislature,
the agony was gotten over with
in a hurry, and the prize-fight
question is settled forever in
Texas-that is, of course, pro
vided the hastily made law

constitutional snag, as many
Texas statutes have done of
late.

The first floor, setting three and
half feet above the street level. is
reached by board flight of granite
steps. The doors admitting to the Of
flee set well back from the street,
triangular, arched area being formed
at the corner. The two arches forming
the area are supported by polished
red granite pillars, with carved caps
of sandstone. Setting in the foliage
of these carved caps are the like
nesses of Benjamin Franklin, Horace
Greeley and the late Mayor James
II. French and Judge Thomas j. De-
vine. The floor of the Office is mar
bic thing, and the wainscoting and
interior finish is of oak, the floor be-
hind the counter being of ash and
cherry parquetry.
The second floor is reached by
stairway beginning at broad, arch
ed entrance on Crockett street door
from the Office also giving an en-
trance TO the stairs. The second
floor, which has nine rooms,is hand
somely tiled and wainscoted.
The third floor, besides the large
composing room, has three offices
overlooking Crockett and Navarro
streets, used by the editorial staff.
TO make the building virtually
fire-proof was 4 purpose never lost
sight of. All the floors are cement
and the girders and supports are of
expanded iron, as are the stairways,
The ceilings aud roof are carried on
iron columns, supporting steel grid
ers, between which are spring steel
arched bars.
The basement of the building is
used exclusively for mechanical |
forces, the press, engine, motors and |
heating apparatus being there. The
front half of the first floor is used as
the business Office. The composing
and stereotyping rooms are in the
rear OF the third floor, while the
editorial rooms are in the front half
