Haverly’s Theatre, the Most Rapidly Built, Perfectly Constructed Theatre on the Continent. While throughout the larger cities of the United States building has been extremely Aetive the past season, it has remained for Chicago enterprise and Chicago builders to demonstrate what could be done in rapid and perfect construction. As such the Hay- erly Theatre will stand as an example of the quickest built and at the same time the most substantial and in every way satisfactory building of this character ever-put up in this or any other city. a The credit for this work, while it rests upon all who have had any part in the con- struction (after the architect who took the responsibility and made the designs from which the theatre was buili, especially be- longs to Messrs., McGraw & Downey, the masons, who rafsed the walls; D & Ktobinson, who supplied all the cut-stone; M. 4. Bushnell, who constructed the wood- work; and W. A, McConnell & Co., who plastered the building throughout. ARCHITECTURAL. When this theatre, which is now completed and stands a sample of what enterprise and designing ability can do when properly combined, was first projected a thorough search was made by Mr. rly for men eompetent to design and superintend a build- ing destined to be the chief temple af ‘Thes- vis inthis city, The plans presented b: Oscar Cobb, were accepted, and Jong listof the best theatres in the West were his references. While Mr. Cobb is the architect and has due credit as such, credit is also due his foreman, Mr. George A. Masters, who. has been his able assistant on the different theatres constructed from plans made in the otlice. The two gentlemen combined are perhaps unequaled in the building of thextres in the country. The beuutitul Academy of Music is a monument to their ‘ability, and we are informed that it is ina great measure due to Mr, Cobb's and Mr. Masters’ untiring energy in pushing each departinent of the work, and their thorough understanding of all the details of the con- mM that Mr. Cobb, ably assisted by Alr. By were enabled to compiete the con- tracts in the specified time, and helping Mr. Haverty to make good his promise to the people, and give them a place of amusement par excellence in the remarkably brief time allotted. Thus we find that these gentlemen, Mr. Cobb, architect, in charge, and the energy of Mr. Masters have won for themselves 2 lasting reputation throughout the country for thorough business tact and architectura ability, A _ alr, Downey laid the first stone of the mas: sive foundations early in July, and Messrs. Diener & Robinson placed the CUT STONE upon the ground ready for the masons, extraordinary promptitude. ‘The. imposing front, six stories in hight, is faced) with the tinest quality of Lemont limestone. dt was cut and polished at the extensive yards of the firm the corner of Fitth avenue and Harrison street, and_after the building was completed it was beautifully sile- cated, and presents to the observer a hand- some piece of stone-wark, The time, we are informed, given this firm forcompleting their contract nty days; but so perfect are their facitities for doing this class of work that all was finished in thirteen da; ble example of promptness, when if is known that tne firm were at the same time furnishing stone for the C..

GALY D IRON WORK. The improved methods of constructing iron fronts and ornamental work have be come a matter of considerable importance to the modern builder where ornamentation joined with indestruetibility is required. “oremost among the manufacturers. is Mr. Villiam B. White, of 63 Pacific avenue, who ced all that class of work upon this tre. , The beauty of the front is en- hanced by the quantity of fron work, cor- nieces, ornamental erestings, aid finals over the mansard rovf, dormer windows, ete., all highly ornamental and of harmontous de sign. Above the centre of the front, be- tween the tivo tall chimneys, Tises a fanci- ful and elegant tower, the outside of which is almost wholly cotipused of fron, every polut being surmounted by a balustrade of galvanized izon. ‘The mansard roof, dormer. windows, and the tower are faced with fane: and this combination of iron and slating uke a fire- proof front as well a3 a highly ornamental one. ‘There are also a number of very larze ventiiators and skylights in the roof, also placed by Mr. White, and as a whole we sel- dom meet with so creditable a piece of work, and never before has the same quality of fron-work been done with the rapidity and precision with which this of tho Hayerly Theatre has been manufactured and placed by Mr. White, ‘Phis is the last of many in- stances Where this firm lave pertorned rapid work, for throughont the country their prompt and siitlfal work is pidely known, recelying everywhere deserved credit. THE ROOF isa flat surface covered with the popular fel¢ composition and gravel roof whieh Is the specialty of the old and well-known firm of G. W. Gefehell & Co., at 166 La Salle street. ‘This fira have been in the reof- ing business for twenty years, and have gained an experience second to none, and it reputation for aways doing tirst-class work. ‘No matter how prompt the mason or dill-, gently seconde by the carpenter in pushing work towards completion is all in vain If THE PLASTERERS $ fail to perform their work with like rapidity. Beside working so many'men at one time as was-necessary in this building, there were | szany other difficulties to contend with. ‘The stagings built, the different coats ‘of plaster- ing must have a certain length of time todry. Then before the hard finish was put onall the heavy plaster moldings around the audi- torium and main éntrance had to be placed, and all this was done by W. A. MeConnall & Co.; of No. 2511 Dearborn street, most satis- factorily, and finished promptly upon the limited time specified. 1n the walls no line tnarks are visible, as all parts of the walls were completed at the same time, thus avoiding a mistake often made by plasterers. THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM, which is always a most important part of building, was designed and constructed. by the well-known sewer-builder, William M. Dee, who has ptaced his complete patent ‘em of house-drainage. Mr. Dee had no competitors in: this contract, as he is so well known as 2 capable © and _ scientific constructor of drainage that his patent system was placed without a question regarding its elfectivent the owners knowing that the same perfection 1s insured” as in several other _ prominent buildings treated by Mr. Dee. Mr. Dee is the inventer and patentee of this system which is gaining sneh a popularity, and it is going into many old and new dwellings in Chicago. The niaterfal used is the Akron sewer pipe, the indestructible quality “of which is well understood, the best. chemists pronouncing it impervious to fluid acid, Sewer gas, or other destructive agents. ‘There are in the drainage ot this theatre 1,100 lineal feet of drains for sewerage and sur- faee water, and the whole contract includes Dee’s patent system of sewer ventilation, m eles for perfection in every particular, Hat O! THE GAS FITTING has been most carefully attended to. While throughout the building the connections are of the most perfect character, those of the theatre are the most important. The lights areall controfied from one point—a gas-stand ced at the prompt-side of the stage. This gas-stand itself is a master piece of worl nshiv, being a combination of gas-coc! forty in number, with independent stops and by-passes | connecting with the various runs throughout the house, being so easily controlled that any shade of light can be produced. in: taneously. Mr. A.C. Hickey, of No. 10South Clinton street, has placed this system and crowned the general completeness by pl cing in the dome, over the centre of the par- quet, a larze combination reflector and yen- ‘or kuawn as the Mickey Sunburner. is burner sheds a powerful light from some two hundred gas-jets beautifully ar- ranged ina cluster set in an eight ered star designed as emblemati tar? theatre, the effect being imost beautifully spectacular.

London Worte One of the most remarkable fcatures in En- glish hotel life at this season of the year 1s the solitary lady, whose movements seem covered with nsort of mystery, who is without fear and doubtless without reproach, of whom no one, unless it be her occasional visitors, can cere tainly say who she is or whence she comes. Does scandal on the purt of any of the Inmates of the cnravanserai ever dare to whisper a word aginst her? Where, her champions might at well ask, ig the slightest sien ot any justifica- tion of calumny? Whut can be more faultiest than her whole environment? She is.lone, tt {i troe, und unprotected, save by ber maid: but she has brought down. ‘her conchmun, carrine, anda pur of horses from London; she neve! drives out during the conventionalty probibited hours; she seldam frequents the -fushiomiblo promenades, und if sho ever inhules the frest airon the hotel tecvice utter dinner, it fs ine variubly in the company of her own vestal Abigail.
