sixth avenue, between Eighteenth and
Nineteenth streets, was filed Saturday
night with an eager crowd Of people en-
deavorfng to gain an entrance to Siegel-
Cooper Cornpany's new store. The crowd
was so large that it filled not only both
wide sidewalks but the street between
Wagons were blocked and were obliged
to go dewn some side street in order to
get to their destination. There were
many Ia that crowd who were jostled
about for hours and did not succeed IN
effecting an entrance. These were able
to see only the brilliant exterior of the
building, ablaze with its countless electric
lights. Inside electric lights made the
store as bright as the NEST discontented
shopper could desire. The beautiful
building was shown to the best possible
advantage. The main floor is the hand
soonest in the building, If one excerpts the
conservatory on the roof. It IN common
with the rest of the building. has innu-
rnerabie electric lights which will be used
on dark days, and on three sides are I'M
mense windows which keep the building
Hight as day 1T will not be necessary for
customers when buying In that store TO
take goods TO the door 70 see WHdt II
looks like in the light.
What attracts everyone upon entering
either of the doors IS the beautiful foun-
tain with the statue Of the Republic.
Even before glancing at the massive oak
counters with their loads Of goods, n
looks down the broad centre aisle to the
fountain. It is exactly IN the centre of
the building. A large basin surrounded
by palms holds the four small fountains
with electrically colored water which
sprays about the beautiful statu of the
Republic. The statue is a reproduction
of the statue which stood in the Court
of Honor at the Columbian Exposition.
It is made Of white marble and heavy
bronze, covered with gold Leaf. On one
side the fountain is the oft-described
staircase with it's white marble steps and
its mahogany hand ran. On the other side
are eight elevators. These elevators are
unlike any in the city, in that they are
run by electricity and run with no jolts
and Jars. They are absolutely danger
proof; it would be an utter im~possibility
for them to run either through the roof
or the basement floor.
It is perhaps from the staircase that
one con1prehends most the vastness of
what is rightly termed tsthe big store
Looking from there one sees an immense
room with no wings or obstruction here
