The building is a fine example or
the French renaissance, which was
developed in Belgium, and which de
lights visitors in the town halls OF
Bruges, Client, Antwerp and l'rus-
sells. The high-pitched roof, with a
p~rofusion of gables, characterlzes the
stvle. At each corner of the rectan-
pular~ structure is a dubious spirc, en-
riched where the tapering OF the
spire begins with four gables. The
spire is 1876 feet high to the top OF the
ornate weathervane, which forms a
final.
The building is 267 by 191 feet ove1
all, including the spreading entrance
s~tairways, which project on fou1
sides of the building and supply thu
sole means of access. The cost OF TIL
building is to be $4,000.
The structure is to be framed o
