in plate and cut glass, making one of
the prettiest show window chances in
the city.
The second floor will be entirely given
over to offices, the number of suites OF
three rooms each being fifteen. This
floor will also be finished in carved
antique oak, and many of the offices
will contain antique oak mantels,
beautifully carved and surmounted by
handsome plate glass mirrors. The
tiling of the mantels will be feature,
the designs of each being different. and
the painting tastefully executed.
The upper, or third floor, will be di-
vided into two flats. which will have all
the latest advantages of light, ventila-
ton and plumbing.
Two courts 27x7 feet run through the
second and third floors of the building,
giving ample light and ventilation to
the different rooms, while a rear court,
3Ox1O, extends the whole length of the
building. Each landing of the several
courts is of thick glass, by which the
passage of light is in no way prevented
from reaching even to the most remote
rooms
| The halls of the building will be fin
| ished in white cedar, stained, and will
be another feature worth seeing.
Throughout the building is being fitted
with combination gas and electric light
| fixtures, all in the very latest design.
Each floor will have seperate toilets,
while many of the suites are to be like
wise furnished, which is feature very
| few buildings in the city may boast of.
| Hot and cold baths with washstand at
| tachments, all of the latest designs and
! improvements, are being put in, thus
assuring comfort
| The plumbing has been under the
| supervision Of the Board of Plumbing
| Inspectors, and Mrs. Joseph believes
| that every necessary arrangement is
| as near perfect as is possible. The
| plumbing and gas fixtures are all of the
latest design and of oxidized copper
In every particular the building is one
of which Sacramento may well be proud.

PLENTY OF LIGHT.

In the matter of light the building is
peculiarly we'll supplied. Windows are
numerous and ample i'll size. The upper
portions of many of them consist of the
stained glass which is so popular at pres
ent. The floors of the halls in the rear
are formed of thick, strong, translucent
glass, which allows the light from over
head to penetrate the otherwise COM
paratively dark corridors below. This
as we'll as all the window glass, includ-
ing the large French plates of the stores
on the ground floor, and the entire glaz-
ing and setting is from the Sullivan
Kelly Company of this city
SANITARY ARRANGEMENTS.
Almost every visitor who has walked
up and through the building has stopped
to remark the good Judgment and skill
which have been clearly manifested in
planning and working out the sanitary
arrangements
The plumbing of the building from
roof to cellar is a model of good taste
and expert workmanship. All this has
been done by and under the direction of
plumber George Stack of 1922 Sixth
street Although a young man he has
had extensive experience at his trade
and has probably been identified with
more fine, highgrade plumbing than
any man in Sacramento. His work on
the Joseph building is of a character to
serve the highest praise.
QUITE A RESPONSIBILITY.
The responsible man during the period
of the erection of the building, by whom
most of the sub-contracts were let, and
upon whom the owners placed reliance
that all would be built in accordance
with specifications, is contractor Silas
Carle. To him more particularly than
any one individual is the credit due for
general excellence of material and thor
oughness of workmanship.
Now that all is complete the owners
cannot say too much in praise of the
manner in which every detail of Mr..
Carries contract has been fulfilled

VOICE OF The PRESS.
Expressions of Interior California
Newspapers.
Comments Upon Things Local, Gov
ernmental, Practical, TheOret-
ical and Current.

Oakland Tribune: Much greater sig
nificance has been given to the circum
stance that ex-President Harrisons S
children did not attend the wedding of
his second wife than it deserved 1t is
not at all rare instance that children
take a second marriage of either their
parents very much to heart. 1t dis
turbs the old order of things. But chill
dren can sometimes be petty tyrants
They will marry without the consent of
parents and make matches in a clan
destine way. Parents generally make
the best of such events. They invite
the young folks to come home and re-
ceive the parental benediction and all
the good things that the old home af-
fords. Children that pout over their
fathers second marriage will generally
grow out Of that frame of mind soon
enough.
THE HARBORS.
Los Angeles Express: The point up
on which we can all agree is that Los
Angeles needs a deep sea harbor. We
can further agree that with free access
to such harbor of all railroads center
ing here, it would make no material
difference to this city whether such har-
Dor should be located at either San
Pedro, Redondo or Santa Monica. If
there is any natural difference it is in
favor of Santa Monica, as the growth of
the city is more vigorous in that direc-
ton. The Express" has shown to the
satisfaction of any reasonable man that
Santa Monica would be free" harbor.
Were there any doubts upon this point,
the proposed extensive improvement
and deepening of San Pedro harbor
would prove a check upon the other.
The fact that the Southern Pacific
Company and the Santa Fe Company,
too, for that matter, now have their
lines running to Santa Monica ought
not to be the bugbear that it seems to
be. What are harbors for unless it is
to bring the commerce of the ocean to a
cilities Of the land?
NOPE.
Red Bluff News: The Marysville
Appeal asks, "Can the avalanche of
debris be stayed?' 1t wishes to know if
dams will do it. And we reply, no, dams
will not do it. Dams will never stop the
flow of slickens that are held in solution
by the water. They may avert the flow
of gravel and heavy matter temporarily.
but, if they do not wash out, they will
fill UP and then everything will pass
just as it did before they were built.
Restraining dams are delusions. They
can never be made to answer more than
temporary purpose, and we doubt if
there are many who really believe
otherwise.

REFORM NEEDED AT FUNERALS.
Boston VIII TIA ke the Lead by Provfd-
ing Tents for MOurners.
RnSfntl HeF.nLH

An effort is now being made by those
interested in cemeteries and their conduct
to cOunte act a danger which has become
so pronounced of late years as to demand
attention-that of standing with head Un-
covered at funeral service in inClement
weather. The question mas been considered
before 1t is not a new one by any means
but heretofore action has ended with con
SidCratiOn. Now the trustees of Mount Au-
burn have taken the matter in hand and
have decided to adopt an idea which they
think will produce at least a partial rem
edy.
There seemed to be a growing impression
that some such remedy should be adopted
or that the custom should be abolished.
Doctors, clergyman and others whose at
tention has been called to the matter are
almost unanimous in asserting that such
exposure is attended with danger to health
and not a few cases have been known to
prove fatal. At some funerals the directors
have been in the habit of keeping in their
carriages all attendants except the imme
diate members of the family of the de-
ceased, and in some cases. where the
weather was extremely inclcment. even the
latter have been requested not to leave their
seats and expose themselves. This plan
seemed sensible il not burdened with Senti-
ment, but it could not become entirely pupu-
la for the very reason that il places the
practical before the consideration of seDti
mcnt.
The plan evolved by the trustees Of
Mount Auburn may not entirely allevi-
ate the dangers which are spoken of, but
it is believed that it will at least reduce
them to n minimum, and the fact that they
have introduced such an innovation in
dicates the sentiment of the public Oh
the question. They intend To build several
large tents, fashioned in such Il manner
that a line of carriages can drive in at
one entrance and out through an exit
on the opposite side of the tent. stopping
under the tent to deposit the passengers
These tents VIII hold all the way from
fifty to 500 persons, and in them It is
intended to hold the services. They will
not be ideal places for such services, but
there can be little doubt they will he at
least an improvement on the plan Os stand
ing without any protection from the ele-
ments. After the service the undertakers
will take charge of the intermcnt OF the
body, while the mnHrncrs will enter their
carriages again without going out into
the open air. the carria ges driving through
the tent a second time and receiving
them at the point at which they unloaded
them before the service.
