Ballad OF the Philippines.

Sweet Laura now the cypress twines
And far her heart must roam
For Philips in the Philippines,
And Philip pines for home
y lovely maiden all forlorn,
No joy her sorrow checks;
Each night she signs till Dewey morn
Shines on the Dewey decks.
And Philip signs from dark to dawn,
Iiy sad misfortune schooled;
And writes eight saffron pages on
Manila wrapping UuledD
Come back" she cries. where Love re-
Clin"S
Far Ger the oceans foam.
And Philips in the Philippines,
And Philip pines Tor home.

18th street and depth of 10 feet on u
street. There are eghttapartments on each
floor, each apartment having from two to
six rooms.
The section, which is to be built as
soon as the weather permits, is to be of
similar design to the present building, and
the interior arrangement is to be the same
The main entrance viii be dignified by the
use of stone ard terra Gotta This new
part will have frontage on 10th street of
11s feet and depth of 100 feet, and will be
seven stories in height one story higher
than the present building.
Cement Partitions
Fireproof construction will be used in this
section, as in the first, and not only will the
floor beams be of iron and filed in with
cement, but the partitions will also be fire
proof. Instead of a wood studding covered
with lath. and then in turn by mortar, wire
netting will be used, which will be covered
with cement. The latter when it dries be-
comes as hard as stone, so that it will not
only resist the fire, but 1t does not have the
spaces which are found in the ordinary
stud partition.
This enterprise is now controlled by the
Capital Construction Company which was
organized by Mr.. Portner for this purpose.
1t IS expected some time during the next
year the work of erecting the third and
last section of this large building will be
begun. This latter part will be a duplicate
of the present building, and will continue
the structure up to street, thus covering
the entire frontage Of that square OH 18th
street, a distance of -32a feet. When that
portion of the building Is erected it is the
intention to remove the houses on the west
side of Portner place and devote that space
and considerably more to a court yard,
which will be handsomely adorned
The same architect also designed the ad-
dition to the apartment house at the corner
Albert Garry, which Is now being built
The new part will have a frontage of 10
feet on Binney street and a depth of 30
