Broadway and 144 feet on Seventh
street and the height from curb to
cornice is 110 feet. Including the roof
garden and basement there are nine
floors with a total floor space of more
than 100000 square feet. Provision has
been made for the erection of three
additional stories at any time the busi-
ness of the tenants calls for more
space. The building, which is of steel
frame and pressed brick construction
and absolutely fireproof, rests upon
sixty"two piers, the smallest of which
is ten feet square, and owing to the
excellent character of the building
bottom in that part of the city these
are capable of supporting a structure
of twenty stories.
Contractor Paul Haupt furnishes
some interesting data which will give
an idea of the size and character of
the building and the work that has
been required in its erection. His
records show that more than 1900
loads of dirt We're removed for the eX-
cavation and that 1862 large wagon
loads of steel were used in the build
ing. If all this steel We're placed end
to end IL would form a line extending
from Los Angeles to a point beyond
San Bernardino, a distance of more
than 62 miles. Other interesting data
in connection with the steel work are
as follows:
Big Quantity Of Material
The manufacture of the steel for this
building required the handling of 1885
pieces of metal. the punching of S92,975
holes to assemble the pieces together,
164,5S2 rivets and 2506 sheets of shop
details to be drawn by expert engineers
In addition to the steel used in the
building 5000 barrels of cement and
1000 barrels of lime were worked up
and 1000 loads of gravel and crushed
rock were utilized. There are 100000
common brick and 10000 pressed brick
In the walls.
A feature of the building is It's inn
mense window space which makes 1t
one of the best lighted structures In
the country. For this purpose more
than 1920 square feet of plate glass
have been used, besides 6452 feet of
prism glass and 1000 square feet of
prismatic sidewalk glass, the latter for
lighting the basement. The interior
of the building win be supplied with
about 5000 electric lights.
The interior of the building Is espe-
eially arranged for department store
purposes. The basement, which Is
twelve feet high In the clear, contains
a floor space of $1,000 square feet.
From this three large stairways lead
to the ground floor and two Of these

Rising Young Vocalist Who Appears
at Blanchard Hall Today Wins
Friends and Admirers Wher-
ever She Goes

Among the talented young vocalists
of this city few have attained to a
greater degree of popularity than Miss
Dolly Eads, who will sing in Blan-
chard hall this afternoon. Although
but IA years of age Miss Eads has al
ready earned no small reputation as a
coming singer of note.
Besides being a musician worthy of
praise the young miss is also a fine
lingust, singing in German, French,
Spanish and Italian with ease and
fluency Her tones are pure and clear
and her enunciation well nigh fault
less.
Her stage presence is not marred
by the disagreeable affectations so
common to youthful artists, and IN
spite of the unstinted praise which
seems to come to her as a matter of
course, she is unspoiled and entirely
lacking i'm pretension.

planned for the patrons. and they will
be entertained by music and various
amuSementS.
A restaurant will be placed either on
the fifth or sixth floor, where the hum
CRY shopper can get a good meal at a
moderate sum.
The show space will be larger than
that of any other concern in the city.
The building has a frontage of 144 feet
on Broadway and 14O on Seventh street;
and with the exception of two twenty
foot entrances, a line of show windows
will run all around this. The windows
will be ten feet deep, and with their
frontage of nearly 25O feet will give un-
exampled opportunity for showing
stock.
The lighting is another point of which
the management feels justly proud.
Glass studded pavements will illumine
the basement, and from the three open
sides of the building daylight will light
en- the upper floors. The ground floor
will be finished in mahogany, while the
upper floors will all be done in oak.
Will Employ Five Hundred
Not only does the new concern pro-
vide a new place where Angelenos
can buy the most up to-Gate merchan-
disc at popular prices, but 1t is also, a
boon to some five hundred people who
will be employed. AS far as possible
Los Angeles people will be employed in
the new store, and this will give work
to large number who would otherwise
have nothing to, do
The promoters of the Seventh street
establishment are well known in Los
Angeles and Southern California. j. G.
Bullock, who for ten years has been
superintendent of the Broadway de-
partment store, has interested capital
lists in the business and will be the
general manager. j. w. Eccleston, for
fiVe years In charge of the same stores
department, has charge of
the promotion and publicity.
Money has not been spared to make
the new store success from the day
of it's opening, and the doors will open
with a stock valued at almost three
quarters of a million dollars.
The firm has adopted as its trade
symbol a flying arrow, within which
the firm name and place of business
appear. In very short time this ar
row will become conspicuous figure in
local business circles, the manage
ment's slogan being, Watch the ar
row."
