HEIGHTS
New Subdivision Only Five Minutes
Ride From Business Center.
Superb View In All
Directions

Culver's Sunset Boulevard Heights
tract lies on a slightly knoll facing the
only real boulevard drive in Los An
geles, and commands a superb view in
all directions. The addition is on Sun
set boulevard just west of the Sisters
hospital and east of Echo park. The
boulevard Is 100 feet wide for a dis
tance of nearly seven miles, and the
city is now ready to widen it from
Main street to Beaudry avenue to
100 feet, which will make it the grand
est thoroughfare in this setcion of the
country.
Property values along and adjacent
to Sunset boulevard, it is said, will
soon double and treble-investments
made now are bound to enhance in
values in the near future.
Sunset Boulevard Heights is only
five minutes distant via trolley car
from the business district. Cars pass
the subdivision every four minutes
The elevation of this beautiful living
place insures GOODNESS in the summer
and warmth during the winter sea-
son.
The approaches to the subdivision will
be illuminated by electric lamps, sup
ported by iron columns, similar to
those that grace Broadway, Laveta
terrace will be lighted by the same
method. Heavy iron posts from which
will be suspended heavy link chains
will guard the outer edges of the ter
race, and broad stairway will connect
the central portion of the drive di-
rectly with the top Of the terrace. All
streets will be graded and graVeled or
oiled. Cement curbs and sidewalks
built according to city specifications
will be placed on all streets. A five
foot parking will extend from the curb
to the sidewalk, giving ample room
for the planting of trees. No unsightly
poles will mar the beauty of Laveta
Terrace, as six foot strips are reserved
IN the rear for telephone and electric
light poles. Water and gas mains will
be laid along the terrace.
The lowest restrictions will be for
bungalows-from $500 to $25O0. All
residences will set back IS feet from

the Alexandria kitchen. L consists of
three great kettles with various de-
grees of warm water in them. The
tray of dishes is suspended over the
first kettle and dipped into the boiling
water, then to the next for a second
washing and to the third for cooling.
In the basement of the building the
management has arranged the COM
missary and winery. Enough supplies
of every eatable imaginable is stored
there and enough fine wine to stock
the hotel tables for more than year.
There are 1862 guest rooms in the
hotel and 500 guests can easily be ac-
accommodated.
Throughout the parlors and reception
rooms the management has arranged
some of the latest and finest models of
the Chickering piano, and these instru-
ments will be the exclusive music
makers for the hotel.
Fine furnishings
Some idea of the elaborate and cost
ly furnishings and decorations of the
new Hotel Alexandria has been gained
from an advance visit of inspection.
The details of planning and selection
have been given months OF thought
by w. M. LOTUS, who had charge of
the work for Barker Brothers, in
and the results achieved are by far
ahead of anything to be found in any
but two or three of the leading hotels
in America.
The contracts called for an eXpendi-
ture of fully 100000, and throughout
the entire building nothing but the
very best has been installed. 1t is a
fact of no little interest that local
firm should be chosen to handle these
q
striking illustration of Los Angeles
commercial supremacy in this line.
Barker Brothers have had large
force of men employed in the various
branches of the work for months.
The $50 rooms have been furnished
to provide absolute comfort, along lines
of richness and substantiability, with
entire freedom of oVerfurnishing, and
yet lacking nothing i'm any particular
that would add to the pleasure and
satisfaction of the most critical guest.
Each room has been carpeted in the
finest royal wilton, with an additional
large oriental rug, while the wall COW
erings, draperies and furniture har-
monte perfectly. Two-tone effects
have been carried out in all the decor
atoms.
A number of rooms have been decor
ated and furnished in styles OF differ
ent periods, embracing the Louis XIV,
empire, Sheridan and colonial The
furniture is the finest and best that
could be procured in solid mahogany
Tuna mahogany and French walnut.
The mezzanine floor and lobby have
been carried out in renaissance erect.
The banquet room, on the mezzanine
floor. is finished in the Sheridan style,
with furniture to match and chairs
covered in genuine haircloth. The
large dining room on the first floor,
just off the lobby is finished In funed
oak with decorations and furniture to
match.
Women's Louneing Room
The ladies' longing room, in con-
nection with the balcony around the
lobby, is provided with every appoint
ment for the comfort of the fair sex.

S. P. Magazine Is Work of Art
The Southern Pacific Railroad COM
pany has just issued a beautiful many
colored magazine, which was printed
and engraved by the Sunset Press, San
Francisco. The work is entitled the
Road of a Thousand Wonders"
Probably the introduction on the
first page tells of the contents in the
feWest words
"These pages picture and tell of this
region and its wonders, of the varied
charms of sea and sky, of mountain
and valley, field and forest and of
climatic features which mean summer
all the year; of numberless resorts at
tractive for notwithstanding idle enjoy
ment, and of all out-of-door recrea-
ton"
Within the seventy-two pages are
contained 116 four and five-colored il
Illustrations, requiring as many pro-
cesses in the production of the same.
The book, for such 1t should be
called, is truly a work of art, and
would thrill the fastener Who has
never seen the beautiful scenery of
California with an almost irresistible
longing to be able to enjoy these won
ders as nature made them with his
own eyes.
James d. Hurley, general manager
of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa F'e
railway, has issued a circular outIin-
ing new uniform for all conductors,
brakemen and station masters on the
system. The new cap resembles some
what that worn by Pullman conduc-
tors. There is this difference from the
headpiece worn by the Pullman en-
ployes: The Pullman cap Is almost
straight up, while the Santa Fe cap
has visor somewhat like the cap worn
by army officers.
The Santa Fe visor is longer than
that of the Pullman company. Both are
made of dead black silk. Two pieces
cf gold braid encircle the Santa Fe
conductors cap, one and one-half
inches apart, while on the brakeman
cap the braid is of silver.
The uniforms are to be made OF Wa
terloo cloth. The conductors coat is
to be single breasted cutaway frock,
resembling an English morning coat.
with side pockets seven inches wide
and eight inches deep. This same coat
is to be worn by the passenger station
.trainmasters. The brakeman's coat is
a single breasted sack buttoned up
close like a private soldiers blouse.
The same coat is to be worn by train
porters, chair car porters. train news
agents and passenger station porters.

ALEXANDRIA IS
OPEN TO PUBLIC
THOUSANDS VIEW SPLENDID
NEW H0STELRY
Interior Is a Revelation in Elegance

Fireproof-Rush of Guests
Begins Monday

More thar five thousand visitors
thronged the new Alexandria hotel at
Fifth and Spring streets last night
when the doors of the magnificent new
building We're opened for the first time
to the public of Los Angeles.
The hotel was ablaze from top to
bottom with electric lights and fairy
lamps and the soft glow from the deli
cately shaded globes fell upon the
magnificent fresco work of the walls,
ceilings and arches and made one Won
den If he was not in fairyland.
The Alexandria is probably the finest
hotel on the coast, and it is said that
its furnishings are the richest to be
found in the west.
The main entrances are on the Spring
and Fifth street sides. Great doors
swing easily back and the visitor finds
himself in a lobby extending the length
of the building. Six huge pillars of
brown onyx support balcony of beau
tiful fresco work. The balcony is one
of the chief attractions of the new
building and extends the entire dis
lance around the lobby.
The office rooms and counter are to
the left from the Fifth street entrance
and the cloak room for use in recep-
tons and banquets is situated at the
end of this counter.
Lobby Is Large
The floor plan is something similar
to that of the Palace hotel in San
Francisco and the lobby is nearly as
large.
To the left of the Fifth street en-
trance is the reception hall leading to
the dining room. The dining room is
one of the chief features of the hotel
and is fairly aglow with thousands Of
pink lights.
The Alexandria cafe will serve to the
theater diners and will be kept open
until after midnight.
Directly to the left of the dining
room is the kitchen. The mere sight
of that kitchen would make a chefs
eyes water with envy. The flooring Is
of beautiful mosacs. Long counters,
chopping boards and cooling tables are
arranged in neat order, while the dis
play of silver ware, bright coppers and
cooking utensils nearly blind the eyes.
