Robert B. Stanton:
Dear Sir-As we apprised you two
weeks ago, it is the desire of the mem
bers of the club that you deliver your
lecture on the Canyons of the Colo
rado," and, if agreeable to you, in
quarters much more commodious than
the club parlor. Since you are soon to
leave the city we renew our request
and we suggest that the lecture be
delivered in some large hall where the
public, as well as the members of the
club, and their friends, may have the
opportunity of hearing a lecture of
such excellent quality as that of which
we had g taste in your Ancient Race
of Cliff Dwellers in the Far South
west" And we wish to express again
our appreciation of the recent lecture
with which you favored the club.
If the prospective lecture is arranged
for at some theatre or church we are
aware that not little expense will be
entailed and charge for admission
necessary. We hasten, therefore, to

This style of boiler is recognized by ex-
perts as the most economical yet designed.
The economy is further increased by the
use of the Hoxden system of forced COM
bustien whereby superheated air IS used
instead of the cold air as is customary.
The electric plant was installed in ac-
cordance with designs made by A. f.
Brooke Ridley, who holds the Pacific Coast
agency of the Siemens-Halske Electric
Company of Chicago. This plant consists
of six direct connected units OF 100 kllowats
capacity and two of 35-kilowats capacity.
These are arranged to run in series in pairs
to supply the elevators at 900 volts or in
multiple at ITO volts for lightning service.
The switch board is constructed OF mar
BILE and is of the panel type. 1t is forty
feet in length and is magnificent piece OF
workmanship. The instruments that are
installed are OF the highest quality and
finish and its artistic sym metry is note
worthy. The switchboard is supplied
with every modern controlling and regis
tering device and the switching arrange
ments are such that the elevators can be
run from the same dynamos as the lights
or independently on different oynamos, at
Will. The light installation consists of
1000 incandescent and 400 arc lights. The
latter are the Manhattan l00-hour lamps
and are the very latest and best in use.
There are fifteen electric elevators in
use in the building. ell operated by the
electric plant, also about 100 motors, large
and small, that are used for various pur-
poses about the building. The plant is
the largest one ever installed in any single
building west of Chicago, and but one
plant in building in the latter city, that
of the Auditorium, is larger than the
one in the Emporium building.

THOUSANDS OF LIGHTS.
Magnificent Illuminating System
Installed by E. II.
Forst.
Installation Was in Accordance With
the Specifications and Plans of
PISSiS & Moore.

The new Emporium building is equipped
with as fine an electrical plant as exists in
any building in the world. II was put in
by E. II. Forst of the California Electric
Supply and Construction Company.
Not only Is the system big one, but it
works to perfection, and the lighting is a
delight not only to those having store room
in the great structure but to the throng of
visitors who enter it.
The first contract closed by Mr.. Forest
with the Parrott estate called for an ex-
penditure of $33 900.
There are nearly eighty miles of wire
all accessible and run through brass and
iron armored condults. There are eighty
nine marble switchboards, controlling $40
incandescent lights, 1000 of the latter be-
ing used in the dome. The entire equip
ment is of the latest and most approved
pattern.
Through the enterprise and Hberality of
Mrs. Parrott in putting in such an extern
sive lighting system many workmen were
given employment during a period when
they badly needed'it.
Mr.. Forst put in the lighting system in
the Sutro baths and the Cliff House,
the German Savings and Loan So
ciety's Bank the Daniel Meyer building,
II. Liebes & Co.'S stores, the Fresno
Courthouse and many of the finest resi-
dences in this City and the surrounding
country. The Cliff House system is of the
accessible variety, the wires being in
stalled in circular loom conduit.

ing display are the great show-windows
containing to-day between $4,000 and
$4,000 worth of choice merchandise.
The feature which attracts the most at.
tention is the reproduction, with appro-
pirate scenery and carefully modeled wax
figures, of the famous painting, The Duel
of the AmaZons."
This striking scene has been ingeniously
turned to advantage to advertise the
famous "R. and g." corsets, with which
the fair swordswomen are clothed. Moth
ing like it in window display has ever been
shown before in this City. The com.
panion picture. entitled "The Reconcilia-
ton, will shortly follow.
The windows attracted great attention
all day yesterday. The display is made
by ]. w. Howell, who won first honors at
the Colum bian Exposition in his line. He
has been especially engaged and will be
retained by the Emporium Company.
Tomorrow the big store opens for busi-
ness. The original plans of the company
fixed the date of opening as the 4th of
February, and stocks were purchased fit
ting that time of the year, among them
$125,000 worth of cloak5 and winter
suits and an immense stock of Paris
dresses that should have been sold before
Easter. "To these" says Secretary JOS

For an hour before they were opened
yesterday afternoon the crowd gathered
and increased about the doors of the EN-
porium, until it became crush not little
alarming. And wien they were thrown
back the first Individual to enter was
typical newsy. He staggered down the
wide aisle in the van of the crowd with
the air of a man escorting his guests over
his own possessions.
Manager Harper was standing at atten.
ton in the rotunda when the boy came
forward, leading the charge. He recog-
nized the arab as an omen-symboI of
good luck that was being thrust upon him.
1t was an inspiration, and he grabbed the
ragged little urchin as something that
must not be allowed to get away. The
boy rebelled as an American citizen who
has rights that no manager of an EN-
porium may curtail-for he thought he
was being arrested.
But on the contrary, as the first of the
invited public to enter the big store Man
ager Harper saw in the lad his especial
guest of honor. He escorted him over the
building, showed him the wonders till he
was sated with them, then he passed him
along from one head of a department to
another with instructions to allow him to
want for nothing.
Two hours after that free delivery car
riage, wearing the coat of arms of the EN-
porium, drove up to the door of Mrs. Don.
ovan's humble home, at 202 Fifth street,
and three ladies, Mrs. Harper. Mrs. Howell
and Mrs. Gareo, stepped out. With them
was an elegantly dressed young man OF 10
years, whom the ladies introduced to Mrs
Donovan as her son-late a street arab of
the most pronounced type.
Mrs. Donovan held up her two hands in
amazement and then turued him round
and round, almost refusing to believe.

ress of the arrangements for the Vene-
tlan Water Carnival, to open in this CITY

several chalrmen OF committees addressed
the audience, telling of the satisfactory
work that b ad been done since the former
ass-meeting, four months ago, when

enterprise.
The audience was informed that, besides
the attractions prepared by the commit
tees, there was good prospect of the cruiser
Philadelphia and the battle-ship Oregon
paying these waters visit during the car
nival letter from Rear Admiral Boards

THE CONCRETE WORK.

The foundation for the building is of
necessity massive and substantial In ad-
dition to the retaining walls, which are
constructed of concrete, there are q large
mum Der of concrete piers which sustain
the weight of the body of the building.
Some of these piers are twenty-four feet
square. First-class work was imperative
In this portion of the structure, and George
Goodman of 307 Montgomery street, who
had the contract for all the concrete work
about the building, executed a splendid
job in every respect. He also put in the
concrete floor in the basement and laid the
cement walks on the streets, both in the
front and in the rear of the building.

the pneumatic-tubes had been firing its
empty boxes to and from all parts of the
building for the mere entertainment of the
people, women had been checking their
babies in the nursery for the novelty of
the thing, and the doctor and his assistants
had been waiting in the emergency hos
pital for the manned and battered vic
tins OF the great crush that, happily,
did not put in an appearance. Secretary
Joslyn and the board of directors were
everywhere, receiving congratulations from
everybody. 1t was an epoch day in San
Francisco.
at o'clock the stream of people was
checked at the doors and began to flow
backward until the big place was empty
OF guests. For it was arranged that it
should be closed, and the clerks and man
ayers and all hands should have q rest
and appear timely to make ready for the
evening reception.
At Z O'Clock somebody touched q button
and 10000 lamps set the big building
ablaze, bringing into the broad light every
remote corner. The band began to play
again and the throng to fill up the aisles.
II is estimated that $4,000 people passed
through the building last night No time
could be allowed to stop and examine.
The only way the streets were kept free
was TO keep the crowd moving. Sergeanrs
Shay, Conboy and Helms, with 10 men,
were detailed 10 the duty.
During the evening a number OF fash
light photographs were taken OF the
crowds in the rotunda and the different
departments.
Ii was not the intention of the manage
ment that any business should be done
yesterday, but it was decided later that
the refreshment department about the
bandstand should be opened for the re-
freshment of the visitors, and a big run
was made upon them.

THE STEAM HEATING.

The entire building is heated by steam
by the Overhead system" which is the
most approved method. The steam is
carried from the basement directly to the
top story, and thence flows down through
the several radiators in the various rooms
to the boiler. thus noiselessly and certainly
heating the whole building.
The George H. Tay Company were Sc
lected to execute this important work, be-
cause of their high reputation and great
experience in heating the large buildings
of the State, such as the French Hospital,
the State Normal School etc
