ITS MAGNITUDE.
c To convey some idea of the
magnitude of this building, it is
needful only to say that the slate
roofing on it covers an area equal
to 81 acres. it has 9 acres of floor
ing, 1. miles of sewer pipe. one
half mile of ventilating pipe. Is
miles of heating pipe, 81 miles
of gas pipe and 9 miles of spout
ing and drainage pipe. The
main tower on the centre build
ing is 200 feet high. and there
are four towers on the four story
sections each $50 feet high. The
main building contains 921 win
dows and 9O6 doors, and it has
been estimated that a strip of
ground one-half mile long, one.
eighth mile wide and so feet high
could be stored within its walls.
1t is no small undertaking to
traverse all the halls of this
mammoth structure, for it has
been figured that 1t would re-
quire a walk of Q / 3 miles to &C.
complish it, and. to include the
detached buildings, in which
several hundred patents are
treated, the distance would be
almost, if not quite, doubled.
The main building is probably
the most imposing structure in
the State, and viewed from a
point where the vision will EN-
brace tin its entirety, it pre-
sents a picture of a beautiful
blending OF massive material into
symmetrical proportions. twill
endure to the name of agenerous
and noble.hearted people, and
future generations can not help
but regard it as one of the great
achievements of the present age.
Taken in connection with its
beautiful surroundings, flower
gardens. shade trees, drive ways,
lakelets and summer houses, it
forms landscape worthy the
study of an artist.
But we will now revert to the
sad and melancholy subject of the
unfortunate people who populate
