The New Building for Ihe Califor- nia Academy of Sciences. A Magnificent Mcnnm«nt "Which Will Keep the Memory of the Great Fhilanthr.p- iitGreen for Generations. TO the princely liberality of one man, Cal- if or via, foremost among the States of the Union, stands indebted for the means of making the mest gigantic strides the world has ever known in the progress of scientific attainment, aud way down in the centuries to come the name of James Lick will shine a bright star in the constellation lof those who bave enabled the finite mind of man to pierce the mysteries of nature and lay bare some of her secrets. The rugged old pioneer little dreamed of the fruit that would be produced from the teed he planted. Doubtless, on many a clear night he gazed upon the starry firmament, and in his soul the desire grew to know more of these orbs than astronomy had jet taught him. Undoubtedly, for him the broken stone, the tiny flower that nestled in the cold entrance of the snow-bank, the many thir gs that nature had scattered over the lace of the country with wanton. hand, possessed tecrets that he longed to learn, and pondering on these, and having the means at bis command, he determined to leave behind him the key which would en- able others to unit ok the treasure-house, and reveal to those who were to come after him those mysteries that he would never be able to pei.etri.te. And so he leit a fortune in the hands of cmuetent men in fi rthemi.ee of his designs, and faithfully have they ful- filled their trust The Lick Observatory lias a world-wide reputation, and has been so often written about that it is row a household word wherever Uie science of astronomy has an abiding place. But the Academy of Sciences is less known. Year alter year, in its dingy quarters in the old church building, at the corner of California and Dupout streets, it has been adding, little by little, to its sto of natural wealth, unfolding leaf by leaf secret after secret that during the world's history has beeu a blank page, until now, through the munificence of the dead million- aire, it is about to emerge from its chrysalis aud become the beautiful creation of its master mind. The Call to-day shares in the jardonable ide of those who have watched its growth, and shares the pleasure that will be experienced in presenting not only a correct representation of the building shortly . to be occupied, but a brief description of its architectural beauty and design. The building soon to be occupied by the California Academy of Sciences stands on the south side of Market street, between Fourth and Fifth, and adjoining the Flood Building It- occupies the " lot . running through the block from .Market to Stevenson streets and is seven stories In height. It is infac: two buildings, the front and rear buildings being connected by a court twenty- seven feet wide nnd fifty feet long. The front. building will be occupied for oflice purposes and stores, and will be let to ten- ants. The court between the buildings will be covered with a glass skylight, and passing through to the rear building and ascending the broad staircases, the two upper floors, which will be occupied by the professors, will be reached. On the first or main lloor the lecture-room, having a seating capacity of 300, will be located. In the space be- tween ihe main and rear buildings and facing on the court, will be located the of- fices of the Secretary and other officers of the academy. , ' \u0084 The entrance through the front to the rear buildinz will arrest the attention of the student of artistic effect Passing under an arched entrance through an ornamental iron gateway of artistic design, the eye rests •everywhere upon the pure marble of Caen, imported directly from France for this structure and finish. The an lies, pillars, floors, stairway and trimmings are of this beautiful stone/ The outside front eleva- tion Is of composite style, ihe material used being the handsome granite of our native mountains, relieved of Its severity by red stone trimming". The accompanying illus- tration will give an excellent idea of the style of the structure.. The whole building is from the design of the architects, Percy &Hamilton, 318 Pine street who deserve great credit lor the taste they have dis- played in their plan. '.- \u25a0":.'.' THE BRICKWORK. ' In a building of this size it is essential to have first-class brickwork, and Mr. John McCarthy, one of the best known contract- ors on the Pacific Const, undertook the work. He has been identified with the building trade for a number of years and has hid contracts for ninny of the large brick build- ings which have been erected of late years, noticeably the Chronicle, Starr King,Kosen- bauin, General Keyes and also Mrs. Par- rett's and 'Senator Fair's business blocks. Mr. McCarthy is a first-class mechanic and personally supervises all work he under- takes, which- is a guarantee that it will be perfect. : •-- --' THE CARPENTER WORK. One of the largest contracts on the build- ing was for the carpenter work aud interior finish, and was secured by Mr. W. M. Fletcher of 330 Pine street The interior is to be finished in oak and white cedar. Mr. Fletcher has just completed work on the new bank in Sacramento, which speaks for itself. He also built Mrs. Parrott's resi- dence on California street, and many other large buildings. THE CABINET WORK. : The ceilings, windows and wainscoting are oak and wero manufactured by L. and E. Emanuel of the West Coast Furniture Company, Fourth street, who employ none but i skilled cabinet-makers. * This - firm - fitted up Lichen' fur-store on Post street, which is ono of the fluest finished stores ; in San Francisco. -iggSEJBBHBjH THE HARDWARE. The finishing hardware will te furnished by the Iluntington-llopkins Company, 18 to 24 Fremont street, who are agents lor the tine line of hardware made _by the Norwalk Lock Company, and these goods will he used In the bui'aing. "• '••_-'• / ,\u25a0 y. :! .The nuiin feature of this . hardware is the Bet of Norwalk master-keyed cylinder leeks for the i office doors, being | the ' first set of locks of the kind whichhas come to San Fran- cisco. ' : These locks have a small steel key and the cylinder is so constructed tliat every room key is different, while there ; is , oue master- key which will pass the whole set. Allthe locks throughout the building are master- keyed, which is an important feature in buildings of this kind often overlooked. - Allthe hardware throughout will be " old copper finish," one -of the most handsome and durable colors which can be used. The goods ; are to be : plain, heivy and durable, and will surely reflect great credit on both manufacturer and merchant. Among some of the otlier items of special hardware to he used are the Giant Sash Lock, Monat's Transom . Rods, Indicator Bolts for water-closet doors and Bardsley's butts for double-acting doors. :' This bouse lias recently been . furnishing some of our largest buildings, among which are the Stanford University, Concordia Club, the new Van Ness-avenue Cathe- dral nnd Old People's Home. A visit to their elegant sample-rooms will- fullyrepay any interested in building. ' ',—? FIRE-PROOF FLOOR AND CEILING. One of the principal features in the build- ing is the Kansome-patent fire-proof ceiling and flooring, and itis the only flooring of its kind of any size ou the Pacific Coast. Two weeks niter it was laid its strength was tested at a pressure of 465 pounds to the square foot, and it only deflected one-six- teenth of an inch, proving its strength and durability. There was a saving of 820,000 over any other style of flooring that might have been used. This work was done by Kausonie & Cushing of 508 California street Mr. Bansome, the senior member of this firm, is an engineer of many years' standing, and a man of wide experience, and he has introduced many new and valuable improve- ments in the art of building ou this coast he sidewalks are also to be put down by the same firm. THE CEMENT BRICK COMPANY. As you enter the building the walls of the vestibule strike the eye veiy favorably, they being built of cement brick of threediffereut colors, which are manufactured by the Ce- ment Brick Company, whose offices are at 508 California street Those bricks have a great advantage over any other kind, as they never vary in size. They are manufactured in all shades, colors and sizes, plain and molded. Tiny have been used, in many buildings in this city. _ The following are a lew ol tlic structures where they can be seen: .Huntington, Hopkins & Co.'s large store and warehouse on Fremont street; the interior of the children's play-house in. Goldi-n (late Park; the engine-house of the cable road, corner of Tenth and Howard streets, and Mr. A. I). Moor's house, on De- visadero and Jackson streets. Any one in- tending to build would do well to inspect some of the above buildings before com- mencing work. \' '"'.': -'"THE OALVANIZED WORK. The galvanized iron and cornice work was done by Mr. W. Cronan, of the Eagle Sheet Metal Works, 1215 Market street. Mr. Cronan makes a specialty of slate, tin and iron rooting, and also east-zinc work. His work can be seen on many of the lending buildings in San Francisco. Any one re- quiring work in this line would do well to call on bin, and any woik he undertakes is sure to give satisfaction. SIARHI.E AND STONE. The California Marble and Building Stono Company, 42 Flood Building, are placing all the marble work in the building; the prin- cipal work of which is the grand stairway ot roiminesque design, and nothing in this country will excel its effect. The great feature of the Colton marble is lis variety of color, beautiful grain, susceptibility of the highest polish, unique combinations of 1 colored effect, and its imperviousuess to at- mospheric influences. This firm erected the lonic portico of pure white marble at the residence of A. : N. Towne. which Is : the finest ever erected In this city.- Their quar- ries are situated at Colton, San Bernardino County. -.- . -• I'LASTER DECORATIONS. The plaster decorations are being Manu- factured by Kellett &McMurray of 28 Ellis street, and are entirely original in their de- signs, and will make a very fine effect in the vestibule of the academy. This firm de- signed and placed all the handsome deco- rations in the Palace ami Baldwin hotels which lately have been renovated. PROTECTION AGAINST FIBS. The building is to be supplied with the Sehenek swinging hose reels, which are rated by the insurance union as the most perfect and reliable inside fire protection it is possible to procure. lly actual nnd repeated experiments by green hands, water can be turned on, 100 feet hose pulled oil, and a stream put on a fire in thirty seconds. The reel is attached ,to the wallout of the way, supported by a suitable bracket, and is so much of an ornament that the manage- ment of the Palace Hotel of this city al- lowed forty-eight of them to be placed on the hall walls of that building. They are being supplied to all the large buildings being erected in this city, and are manufact- ured and sold by W. T. Y. Sehenek, dealer fire hose and lire apparatus of all kinds, 'll'l and 224 Market street, this city. TUE IRONWORK. The constructional wrought Iron and steel work, consisting of girders, beams, anchors, rods, etc., was furnished, by the well-known firm of Bis &Firth, Phoenix Iron Works, 225 First street It Is of the most substantial character and weighs about 150 tons. This firm is recognized as expert in this branch of modern building construction, and has been particularly for- tunate in securing most of the large con- tracts in this city, among the larger con- tracts , being the Odd Fellows' Building, Union Club Building, Kosenstock and Crocker Buildings on Bus!) street, Lachmnn Building, Fremont and Market streets ; Jones & Josephs and Huntington-Hopkins buildings, Philadelphia Brewery, •\u25a0\u25a0 I'nrrott Building; Levy Binding, O'Farreil street, between Dupont and Stockton streets Pleasanton Hotel,' Califoruia . Hotel and Theater, Lick Free Baths and many, others of less size and importance. They are now filling a contract for material and -erection for tho : Crocker Building, an idea of .the magnitude of which contract may be formed from the fact that the iron work alone amounts to nearly £200.000. the XJSIV BVILHIXO TOR THE ACADEMY of BCIEXCES.

Allari of 613 Geary street, but when, he was called in court as the prosecuting witness he did not respond, his mother appearing in his stead. Judge Lawler, as, indeed, all the officers of the court, was very much surprised when he saw the " kids " toddling into court and indignantly inquired how it came that such small children were ; brought _ there to-be tried.'-' - -* '•\u25a0. ••: . :" \u25a0 y'7 -..

The Market in a Healthy Condi* tion and Prices Firm. Lists Augmented to Meet the Demand— What Many of the Brokers Are Offering. Latest Beported Sales— ltems. : Dealers are unanimous in the opinion that the condition of the market has never been in a more healthy state than itis now. When business Is dull the offerings usually diminish in sympathy with the market, but, judging from the full lines which have been presented to investors and others during the past few days, and taking into consideration the number of sales closed recently, there is every prospect of a brisk market from now on. No great activity or excitement are to be noted, but the chief characteristics of the market are a steady growth in the volume of business and fair inquiry for property. Realty is pre-eminently the best security whichcau be found in this city, and it is scarcely possible to err in making invest- ments even at the stiff prices which prevail, and which to many intending purchasers would appear to be beyond the reasonable market value. There is no abatement in building opera- tions, and the very latest announcement in this respect is that a prominent Montgom- ery-street real estate firm Is about closing a contract for the erection of a seven-story brick and stone building on Market street which, itis estimated, will cost g560,C00. Money is plentiful and is being loaned nt reasonable rates, viz. : 6 to 7 per cent for first-class security. Call loans are enter- tained at 4'/_i to 6, and good commercial pa- per is readily discounted at the rate of 7 per cent per annum. A lew of the larger loans on real estate security may be referred to: \u25a0* On property 137:6x85, north line of Jessie, east of Fourth, $37,500 one year at 8% per cent; by San- Francisco Savings Union, $10,000 ou the two 50-varas north cor- ner Laurel and Washington, and by the same institution, $15,000 on the lot tlxl37:G, north line of Bush, 137:0 east of Mason. The sum of $15,01i0 was advanced by the Occi- dental Loan Association for six years at 7 per cent „on the, lot 82x109:6, east side of Buchanan, 64 south of Broadway, and $11,003 was borrowed for ten months at 8 per i cut on the 50-foot lot north line of Fell, east of Shradr. Tho Home Investment Company advanced StO.OOO for six years at 6 per cent on the lot 05x122:0, southeast cor- ner of Howard and Nineteenth. Builders' contracts, numbering twenty- nine, have been recorded during the past eight days, aggregating ill value $203,000, fifteen of which amounts to $239,000, CITY OFFERINGS.

Fltzli ugh- Hopkins Company makes an important announcement in the other columns to-day to the effect that 1 1 will, for a few days, offer single lots in this desirable tract at wholesale prices. Con- tracts have been let for fencing every block in the tract and the grading of eight miles of streets is nearly completed. Fifteen hundred lots were disposed of in the first thirty days after the tract was put upou the market, and the remaining lots will be sold at once to close out the dcil. -".-. Contracts have been let for a number of houses, which will no doubt enhance the- value cf the neighboring lots, and, consider- ing that the Unsold ones nre being offered at original prices, the Investment ought to be a safe and profitable one. Block 19, in the same tract, has been sub- divided into large tots, which are being vow offered by the Capital Avenue Club at ex- ceptionally low prices. This block is beau- tifully situated, overlooking the ocean, and is considered one of the most de- sirable locations in the entire tract. Every lot ' is graded _ and ready for building turposes. Tho streets are lined with trees, making the situation a de- sirable one. It has attracted the attention of buyers, and, although several bids have been made for lots, the club decided to hold on to it until the improvements were com- pleted. Doubtless it will havo a ready sale on account of its superior position and im- proved condition. The San Francisco Globe, a weekly news- per published by P. A. Dolan & Co., the real-estate brokers, contains, among other tilings, double-column cuts of the President and Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Federation of Improvement Clubs, . with "short biographies of their lives; doings of the various Improvement clubs, an ti- de on tho British empire, the Van Ness and Market-street hotel and several bright arti- cles on real estate matters, etc. In connection with the sale of a portion of Green Brae Kanch, near Snn Kafael, by O'Farreil & Lang, it was omitted to mention thu name of James Trumstead, agent for David Porter, who was an associate in I tho transaction.

Closing Day of the Frnit and :> Flower ; Festival! , Thousands of happy children attended the ; Fruit and Flower Festival at .Woodward's Gardens yesterday and joined in many a pleasant game -with the little waifs in whose behalf it was gotten up. . Being a school hol- iday the children present were' almost legion, : and how far into the thousands . they went would be hard to say. yy _ , " = _. Of one! fact, however, there is no doubt, that between 2 and .4 o'clock there were fully 4000 school children within the gar- dens enjoying themselves as only children can in viewing the sights and getting up im- provised picnics in the shady nooks which the rapidly decaying grounds still afford. f v Early in. the day an ' enthusiastic ;. bene- | factor of the Youths' Directory/ made a do- nation of SCO, which Father Crowley divided up among his youthful charges. I rovided thee unexpectedly with, the sinews of war the little fellows laid siege to the different booths, and' nil day long the : kind ladies at tbe sweetmeat counters were kept busy in filling.diminutive but frequent orders for the good things in their care. Nor was there a greedy streak exhibited by one of : them. Tliey were whole-souled in their generosity toward other little children, and even the crumbs of their feast were thoughtfully di- vided un among the monkeys and the "happy family." ? INTHE AMrnITIIEATIJR. During the afternoon, in the amphithea- ter, the girls' race attracted general atten- tion. It was for a handsome pin-cushion, which, after a hotly contested run, was won by Mary McElroy. Immediately afterward, the bsvs of the Pacific and West End base-ball clubs took the field, and the greater part of the after- noon was devoted to watching tho struggle for a valuable bat and ball, which were won by the West Ends by a score of 7to 6. E. J. Coffey and John Rafferty acted as a Com- mittee on Games, and J. Garbarino as um- pire. - There was great enthusiasm in the pavil- ion over the voting for the gubernatorial chair, the rivalry between the friends of Markham and' Pond being very pronounced." So close was the contest all the afternoon that the leadership was changed with every few votes, and the adherents of both candi- dates were kept in a continued state of ex- citement. At 4 o'clock the vote stood: Markham 675, Pond 708. VICTORY FOR MARKHAM. About 300 people were present last night at the Pavilion. The entertainment in the assembly hall was one of the best of the series during the festival. Miss' Nellie Kenny, soprano soloist, was vigorously applauded and was compelled to respond to an encore. The violin-playing of Miss Fuhrer, a maiden of about 8 years of nge, was- very clever. The Apollo Male Quartet sang in good harmony, and the selections by the Zither Club, under the leadership of Pro- fessor L. Becker, was one of the most charming numbers on the programme. D. C. Nealon presided during the evening. After the assembly had left the auditory the excitement centered nt the booth where . votes were being polled for Markham and Pond, who were contestants for the chair. At 10 o'clock over 1000 votes had been cast for each contestant, and every additional vote thereafter was received with cheers. The interest in the fight . increased to fever height as the closing hour drew near, and the bulletin board was surrounded by a throng prepared to spend the last dollar for a favorite candi- date. -When the polls closed the vote stood 22*4 for Markham and 2238 for Pond. The articles unsold at the festival will be disposed of by auction at the Youths' Directory on Monday and Tuesday. CHAUTAUQUA NOTES. Two Circles Which Open Their Doors to the .Public. Some Statistics of the Movemsnt in thi United States-The Author of "Hslen's Babies" President of the Class of '94. During the past week Caslalian Circle, C. L. S. C, held a meeting at the residence of its retiring Secretary, Mrs. J. N. Blood, 324 Xoe street, and reorganized lor active work. The following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing year: S. T. Davidson, Pres- ident; Mrs. H. S. Brewer, Vice-President; Miss M. E. Speakman, Secretary; Miss Ada Mowry, Assistant Secretary; Committee on Programme— S. T. Davidson, Miss S. Speak- man, Mrs. H. S. Brewer. One of the lectures of the course about to be given un- der Chautauqua auspices will be delivered before Caslalian Circle, and It is hoped that many persons hitherto unitiated in C. L. S. C. work may have their eyes opened to the benefits and pleasures to be gained by be- coming members. In the interim, persons who desire to associate themselves with the Castalians are invited to call on Miss Speak] man, the Secretary, at 129 street, or on Mrs. 11. S. Brewer at 2-170 Mar- ket street, who willcheerfully give fullpar- ticulars. 7. Filbau Circle expects to enroll a large num- ber of strangers Tuesday evening at its meeting in the Methodist Church, Bush street, near Scott, after the lecture which is to be delivered by its leader, ltev. Thomas Filben, on "The Chan qua Idea." Due of the pleasant features of Chautau- qua organizations throughout the world Is the appropriate observance of memorial days in honor of noted writers. On these occasions quotations from the books of the honored author are repeated by members of the circle, and in turn those in possession of anecdotes iv the life of the person tell their little stories. 'Some of the circles which are fortunate in containing an elocutionist of ability arrange for a public reading to Inch friends are Invited. In this manner the memory of the departed is perpetuated and a variety, which is the spice of life, in a cir- cle is obtained. Last year Houghton Circle of Oakland set a commendable example to Its sister organizations in this particular. The special Memorial day for October will fall on the 30.h, aud will be devoted to King Alfred. In November John Wielif will be remembered on the SiSth, and on December 30th members will recall Chaucer to memory through his writings. During ihe past summer fifty-three as- semblies, modeled more or. less faithfully after the great meeting at Chautauqua, New York, of which that held at Pacific. Grove is a fair example, ' were held in the "United States. One of the new developments noted this year was a gathering held at Ashbury Park, N. J., in August, by colored people, itbeing the first instance in the history of any colored denomination that a summer educational institution has been organized. InEngland two assemblies were held, one at Oxford and the other at Blackpool. A complete list of those who have com- pleted the four years' .prescribed course of reading in June last and who underwent ex- amination has not yet been completed, but diplomas have already been presented to 1250 graduates, of whom 52 . resided on the Pacific Coast Alarge majority of rend- ers never prepare examination papers but are content with the benefit derived from the study of the books recommended by the faculty and never apply for diplomas. The class of '94 will be known as the Fhiloniatheaiis and the motto is "Übi niel, ibi apes," i. c., "Where honey is, there nre bees," the President of the class being John Habberton, the New York journalist The red clover blossom has been selected as the class flower. _WU^__ot^ggm It is customaiy for those beginning the course of reading to fill out a blank, giving name, address, age, occupation, etc. Among those to begin this . year are many college graduates, while one render is the author of many books held In high esteem on both sides of tie Atlantic who has celebrated his seventy-seventh anniversary.

JAMES LICK'SGENEROSITY.

The New Building forIhe Califor-

nia Academy of Sciences.

A Magnificent Mcnnm«nt "Which Will Keep

the Memory ofthe Great Fhilanthr.p-

iitGreen for Generations.

TO the princely liberality of one man, Cal-ifor via, foremost among the States of theUnion, stands indebted for the means ofmaking the mest gigantic strides the worldhas ever known in the progress of scientificattainment, aud way down in the centuriesto come the name of James Lick will shinea bright star in the constellation lof thosewho bave enabled the finite mind of man topierce the mysteries of nature and lay baresome of her secrets.

The rugged old pioneer little dreamed ofthe fruit that would be produced from theteed he planted. Doubtless, on many a clearnight he gazed upon the starry firmament,and in his soul the desire grew to knowmore of these orbs than astronomy had jettaught him. Undoubtedly, for him thebroken stone, the tiny flower that nestledin the cold entrance of the snow-bank, themany thir gs that nature had scattered overthe lace of the country with wanton. hand,possessed tecrets that he longed to learn,and pondering on these, and having themeans at bis command, he determined to

leave behind him the key which would en-able others to unit ok the treasure-house, andreveal to those who were to come after himthose mysteries that he would never be ableto pei.etri.te. And so he leit a fortune inthe hands ofcmuetent men in firthemi.ee

of his designs, and faithfully have they ful-filled their trust

The Lick Observatory lias a world-widereputation, and has been so often writtenabout that it is row a household wordwherever Uie science of astronomy has anabiding place. But the Academy of Sciencesis less known. Year alter year, in itsdingy

quarters in the old church building, at thecorner of California and Dupout streets, ithas been adding, little by little, to its stoof natural wealth, unfolding leaf by leafsecret after secret that during the world'shistory has beeu a blank page, until now,through the munificence of the dead million-aire, it is about to emerge from its chrysalisaud become the beautiful creation of itsmaster mind. The Call to-day shares inthe jardonable ide of those who havewatched its growth, and shares the pleasurethat willbe experienced in presenting notonly a correct representation of the buildingshortly . to be occupied, but a briefdescription of its architectural beauty anddesign.

The building soon to be occupied by theCalifornia Academy of Sciences stands onthe south side of Market street, betweenFourth and Fifth, and adjoining the FloodBuilding It- occupies the

"lot. running

through the block from .Market toStevensonstreets and is seven stories Inheight. Itis

infac: two buildings, the front and rearbuildings being connected by a court twenty-

seven feet wide nnd fifty feet long. Thefront.building will be occupied for oflicepurposes and stores, and willbe let to ten-ants. The court between the buildings will

•be covered witha glass skylight, and passingthrough to the rear buildingand ascendingthe broad staircases, the two upper floors,which will be occupied by the professors,willbe reached. On the first or main lloorthe lecture-room, having a seating capacityof 300, will be located. In the space be-tween ihe main and rear buildings andfacing on the court, will be located the of-

fices of the Secretary and other officers ofthe academy. ,

'

\u0084

The entrance through the front to the rearbuildinz will arrest the attention of thestudent of artistic effect Passing under anarched entrance through an ornamental irongateway of artistic design, the eye rests

•everywhere upon the pure marble of Caen,imported directly from France for thisstructure and finish. The an lies, pillars,floors, stairway and trimmings are of thisbeautiful stone/ The outside front eleva-tion Is of composite style, ihe material usedbeing the handsome granite of our nativemountains, relieved of Its severity by redstone trimming". The accompanying illus-tration willgive an excellent idea of thestyle of the structure.. The whole building

is from the design of the architects, Percy&Hamilton, 318 Pine street who deservegreat credit lor the taste they have dis-played in their plan.

'.- \u25a0":.'.' THE BRICKWORK.'

Ina building of this size it is essential tohave first-class brickwork, and Mr. JohnMcCarthy, one of the best known contract-ors on the Pacific Const, undertook the work.He has been identified with the buildingtrade for a number of years and has hidcontracts for ninny of the large brick build-ings whichhave been erected of late years,noticeably the Chronicle, Starr King,Kosen-bauin, General Keyes and also Mrs. Par-rett's and 'Senator Fair's business blocks.Mr. McCarthy is a first-class mechanic andpersonally supervises all work he under-takes, which- is a guarantee that it will beperfect. :

•----'

THE CARPENTER WORK.One of the largest contracts on the build-

ing was for the carpenter work aud interiorfinish, and was secured by Mr. W. M.Fletcher of 330 Pine street The interioris to be finished in oak and white cedar.Mr.Fletcher has just completed work onthe new bank in Sacramento, which speaksfor itself. He also built Mrs. Parrott's resi-dence on California street, and manyother large buildings.

THE CABINET WORK.:The ceilings, windows and wainscotingare oak and wero manufactured by L. andE. Emanuel of •

the West Coast FurnitureCompany, Fourth street, who employ nonebut iskilled cabinet-makers.

*This

-firm

-fitted up Lichen' fur-store on Post street,which is ono of the fluest finished stores ;inSan Francisco. -iggSEJBBHBjH

THE HARDWARE.The finishing hardware willte furnished

by the Iluntington-llopkins Company, 18 to24Fremont street, who are agents lor the tineline of hardware made _by the NorwalkLock Company, and these goods willhe usedInthe bui'aing. "• • '••_-'• / ,\u25a0 y.:!

.The nuiin feature of this .hardware is theBet ofNorwalk master-keyed cylinder leeksfor the ioffice doors, being |the

'first set of

locks of the kind whichhas come toSan Fran-cisco.

':These locks have a small steel key andthe cylinder is so constructed tliatevery roomkey is different, while there ;is ,oue master-

key which willpass the whole set. Allthelocks throughout the building are master-keyed, which is an important feature inbuildings of this kind often overlooked.

-Allthe hardware throughout will be

"old

copper finish," one -of the most handsomeand durable colors which can be used.

The goods ;are to be :plain, heivy anddurable, and willsurely reflect great crediton both manufacturer and merchant.

Among some of the otlier items of specialhardware to he used are the Giant SashLock, Monat's Transom . Rods, IndicatorBolts for water-closet doors and Bardsley'sbutts for double-acting doors. :'

This bouse lias recently been . furnishingsome of our largest buildings, among whichare the Stanford University, ConcordiaClub, the new Van Ness-avenue Cathe-dral nnd Old People's Home. A visit totheir elegant sample-rooms will-fullyrepayany interested in building. ' ',—?

FIRE-PROOF FLOOR AND CEILING.One of the principal features in the build-

ing is the Kansome-patent fire-proof ceilingand flooring, and itis the only flooring of itskind of any size ou the Pacific Coast. Twoweeks niter it was laid its strength wastested at a pressure of 465 pounds to thesquare foot, and it only deflected one-six-teenth of an inch, proving its strength anddurability. There was a saving of 820,000over any other style of flooring that mighthave been used. This work was done byKausonie &Cushing of 508 California streetMr. Bansome, the senior member of thisfirm, is an engineer of many years' standing,and a man of wide experience, and he hasintroduced many new and valuable improve-ments in the art of building ou this coast

he sidewalks are also to be put down bythe same firm.

THE CEMENT BRICK COMPANY.

As you enter the building the walls of thevestibule strike the eye veiy favorably, theybeing built of cement brick of threediffereutcolors, which are manufactured by the Ce-ment Brick Company, whose offices are at508 California street Those bricks have agreat advantage over any other kind, as theynever vary in size. They are manufactured

in all shades, colors and sizes, plain andmolded. Tiny have been used, in manybuildings in this city. _ The followingare alew ol tlic structures where they can beseen: .Huntington, Hopkins & Co.'s largestore and warehouse on Fremont street; theinterior of the children's play-house in.Goldi-n (late Park; the engine-house of thecable road, corner of Tenth and Howardstreets, and Mr. A. I).Moor's house, on De-visadero and Jackson streets. Any one in-tending to build would do well to inspectsome of the above buildings before com-mencing work.\' '"'.':-'"THE OALVANIZED WORK.

The galvanized iron and cornice workwas done by Mr. W. Cronan, of the Eagle

Sheet Metal Works, 1215 Market street. Mr.Cronan makes a specialty of slate, tin andiron rooting, and also east-zinc work. Hiswork can be seen on many of the lendingbuildings in San Francisco. Any one re-quiring work in this line would do well tocall on bin, and any woik he undertakes issure to give satisfaction.

SIARHI.E AND STONE.The California Marble and Building Stono

Company, 42 Flood Building, are placing allthemarble work in the building; the prin-cipal work of which is the grand stairwayot roiminesque design, and nothing in thiscountry will excel its effect. The great

feature of the Colton marble is lis varietyof color, beautiful grain, susceptibility ofthe highest polish, unique combinations of

1 colored effect, and its imperviousuess to at-mospheric influences. This firm erected thelonic portico of pure white marble at theresidence of A.:N. Towne. which Is:thefinest ever erected In this city.- Their quar-ries are situated at Colton, San BernardinoCounty. -.- .-• I'LASTER DECORATIONS.

The plaster decorations are being Manu-factured by Kellett &McMurray of 28 Ellisstreet, and are entirely original in their de-signs, and willmake a very fine effect in thevestibule of the academy. This firm de-signed and placed all the handsome deco-rations in the Palace ami Baldwin hotelswhich lately have been renovated.

PROTECTION AGAINST FIBS.The building is to be supplied with the

Sehenek swinging hose reels, which arerated by the insurance union as the mostperfect and reliable inside fireprotection itis possible to procure.

lly actual nnd repeated experiments bygreen hands, water can be turned on, 100feet hose pulled oil, and a stream put on afire in thirty seconds.

The reel is attached ,to the wallout of theway, supported by a suitable bracket, andis so much of an ornament that the manage-ment of the Palace Hotel of this city al-lowed forty-eight of them to be placed onthe hall walls of that building. They arebeing supplied to all the large buildingsbeing erected in this city, and are manufact-ured and sold by W. T. Y. Sehenek, dealerfire hose and lire apparatus of all kinds, 'll'land 224 Market street, this city.

TUE IRONWORK.The constructional wrought Iron and

steel work, consisting of girders, beams,anchors, rods, etc., was furnished, by thewell-known firm of Bis &Firth, PhoenixIron Works, 225 First street ItIs of themost substantial character and weighsabout 150 tons. This firm is recognized asexpert in this branch of modern buildingconstruction, and has been particularly for-tunate in securing most of the large con-tracts in this city, among the larger con-tracts ,being the Odd Fellows' Building,Union Club Building, Kosenstock andCrocker Buildings on Bus!) street, LachmnnBuilding, Fremont and Market streets ;Jones &Josephs and Huntington-Hopkinsbuildings, Philadelphia Brewery, •\u25a0\u25a0 I'nrrottBuilding; Levy Binding, O'Farreil street,between Dupont and Stockton streetsPleasanton Hotel,' Califoruia .

They are nowfillinga contract for material and -erectionfor tho:Crocker Building, an idea of .themagnitude of which contract may be formedfrom the fact that the iron work aloneamounts to nearly £200.000.

REAL ESTATEMARKET.

The Market in a Healthy Condi*tion and Prices Firm.

Lists Augmented to Meet the Demand— What

Many of the Brokers Are Offering.

Latest Beported Sales— ltems.

: Dealers are unanimous in the opinion

that the condition of the market has neverbeen in a more healthy state than itis now.When business Is dull the offerings usually

diminish in sympathy with the market, but,judging from the fulllines which have beenpresented to investors and others during thepast few days, and taking intoconsiderationthe number of sales closed recently, there isevery prospect of a brisk market from nowon.

No great activity or excitement are to benoted, but the chief characteristics of themarket are a steady growth in the volumeof business and fair inquiry for property.

Realty is pre-eminently the best security

whichcau be found in this city, and it isscarcely possible to err in making invest-ments even at the stiff prices which prevail,and which to many intending purchaserswould appear to be beyond the reasonablemarket value.

There is no abatement in building opera-tions, and the very latest announcement inthis respect is that a prominent Montgom-ery-street real estate firm Is about closing

a contract for the erection of a seven-story

brick and stone building on Market streetwhich, itis estimated, willcost g560,C00.

Money is plentiful and is being loaned ntreasonable rates, viz.:6 to 7 per cent forfirst-class security. Call loans are enter-tained at 4'/_i to 6, and good commercial pa-per is readily discounted at the rate of 7 percent per annum.

YOUTHS' DIRECTORY.Closing Day of the Frnit and

:>Flower ;Festival! ,

Thousands of happy children attended the;Fruit and Flower Festival at .Woodward'sGardens yesterday and joined in many apleasant game -with the littlewaifs in whosebehalf itwas gotten up. . Being a school hol-iday the children present were' almost legion,:and how far into the thousands . they wentwould be hard to say. yy _

," = _.

Of one! fact, however, there is no doubt,that between 2 and .4 o'clock there werefully4000 school children within the gar-dens enjoying themselves as only childrencan in viewing the sights and getting up im-provised picnics in the shady nooks whichthe rapidly decaying grounds still afford.

f v Early in. the day an'enthusiastic ;.bene-

|factor of the Youths' Directory/ made a do-nation ofSCO, which Father Crowley divided

up among his youthful charges. Irovidedthee unexpectedly with,the sinews of warthe littlefellows laid siege to the differentbooths, and' nil day long the :kind ladies attbe sweetmeat counters were kept busy infilling.diminutive but frequent orders forthe good things in their care. Nor was therea greedy streak exhibited by one of:them.Tliey were whole-souled in their generositytoward other little children, and even thecrumbs of their feast were thoughtfully di-vided un among the monkeys and the"happy family."

? INTHE AMrnITIIEATIJR.During the afternoon, in the amphithea-

ter, the girls' race attracted general atten-tion. Itwas for a handsome pin-cushion,which, after a hotly contested run, was wonby Mary McElroy.

Immediately afterward, the bsvs of thePacific and West End base-ball clubs tookthe field, and the greater part of the after-noon was devoted to watching tho strugglefor a valuable bat and ball, which were wonby the West Ends by a score of 7to 6. E.J. Coffey and John Rafferty acted as a Com-mittee on Games, and J. Garbarino as um-pire.

-There was great enthusiasm in the pavil-

ion over the voting for the gubernatorialchair, the rivalry between the friends ofMarkham and' Pond being very pronounced."So close was the contest all the afternoonthat the leadership was changed with everyfew votes, and the adherents of both candi-dates were kept in a continued state of ex-citement. At 4 o'clock the vote stood:Markham 675, Pond 708.

VICTORY FOR MARKHAM.About 300 people were present last night

at the Pavilion. The entertainment in theassembly hall was one of the best of the seriesduring the festival. Miss' Nellie Kenny,soprano soloist, was vigorously applaudedand was compelled to respond to an encore.

The violin-playing of Miss Fuhrer, amaiden of about 8 years of nge, was- veryclever. The Apollo Male Quartet sang ingood harmony, and the selections by theZither Club, under the leadership of Pro-fessor L. Becker, was one of the mostcharming numbers on the programme. D.C. Nealon presided during the evening.• After the assembly had left the auditorythe excitement centered nt the booth where.votes were being polled for Markham andPond, who were contestants for thechair. • At 10 o'clock over 1000 voteshad been cast for each contestant,

and every additional vote thereafterwas received with cheers. The interest inthe fight.increased to fever height as theclosing hour drew near, and the bulletinboard was surrounded by a throng preparedto spend the last dollar for a favorite candi-date. -When the polls closed the vote stood22*4 for Markham and 2238 for Pond.

The articles unsold at the festival willbedisposed of by auction at the Youths'Directory on Monday and Tuesday.

CHAUTAUQUANOTES.

Two Circles Which Open TheirDoors to the .Public.

Some Statistics of the Movemsnt in thi United

States-The Author of "Hslen's Babies"President of the Class of '94.

During the past week Caslalian Circle, C.L. S. C, held a meeting at the residence ofits retiring Secretary, Mrs. J. N. Blood, 324Xoe street, and reorganized lor active work.The following officers were elected to servefor the ensuing year: S. T. Davidson, Pres-ident; Mrs. H. S. Brewer, Vice-President;Miss M. E. Speakman, Secretary; Miss AdaMowry, Assistant Secretary; Committee onProgramme— S. T. Davidson, Miss S. Speak-man, Mrs. H. S. Brewer. One of thelectures of the course about to be given un-der Chautauqua auspices willbe deliveredbefore Caslalian Circle, and Itis hoped thatmany persons hitherto unitiated in C. L. S.C. work may have their eyes opened to thebenefits and pleasures to be gained by be-coming members. In the interim, personswho desire to associate themselves with theCastalians are invited to call on Miss Speak]man, the Secretary, at 129street, or on Mrs. 11. S. Brewer at 2-170 Mar-ket street, who willcheerfully give fullpar-ticulars. • 7.

Filbau Circle expects to enroll a large num-ber of strangers Tuesday evening at itsmeeting in the Methodist Church, Bushstreet, near Scott, after the lecture which isto be delivered by its leader, ltev. ThomasFilben, on "The Chan qua Idea."

Due of the pleasant features of Chautau-qua organizations throughout the worldIsthe appropriate observance of memorialdays in honor of noted writers. On theseoccasions quotations from the books of thehonored author are repeated by members ofthe circle, and in turn those inpossession ofanecdotes iv the life of the person tell theirlittlestories. 'Some of the circles which arefortunate in containing an elocutionist ofability arrange for a public reading to Inchfriends are Invited. In this manner thememory of the departed is perpetuated anda variety, which is the spice of life, ina cir-cle is obtained. Last year Houghton Circleof Oakland set a commendable example toIts sister organizations in this particular.The special Memorial day for October willfall on the 30.h, aud willbe devoted to KingAlfred. InNovember John Wielif will beremembered on the SiSth, and on December30th members willrecall Chaucer to memorythrough his writings.

During ihe past summer fifty-three as-semblies, modeled more or. less faithfullyafter the great meeting at Chautauqua, NewYork, of which that held at Pacific. Grove isa fair example, 'were held in the "UnitedStates. One of the new developments notedthis year was a gathering held at AshburyPark, N. J., in August, by colored people,itbeing the first instance in the history ofany colored denomination that a summereducational institution has been organized.InEngland two assemblies were held, oneat Oxford and the other at Blackpool.

A complete listof those who have com-pleted the four years' .prescribed course ofreading in June last and whounderwent ex-amination has not yet been completed, butdiplomas have already been presented to1250 graduates, of whom 52 .resided onthe Pacific Coast Alarge majority of rend-ers never prepare examination papers butare content with the benefit derived fromthe study of the books recommended by thefaculty and never apply for diplomas.

The class of '94 will be known as theFhiloniatheaiis and the motto is "Übi niel,ibi apes," i. c., "Where honey is, there nrebees," the President of the class being JohnHabberton, the New York journalist Thered clover blossom has been selected as theclass flower. _WU^__ot^ggmItis customaiy for those beginning the

course of reading tofill out a blank, givingname, address, age, occupation, etc. Amongthose to begin this .year are many collegegraduates, while one render is the author ofmany books held In high esteem on bothsides of tie Atlantic who has celebratedhis seventy-seventh anniversary.
