YHE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1895. 5 FURTHER EVIDENCE OF APPRECIATION OF THE CALL’S ENTERPRISE. HE many kind notices that have been published in our contempo- raries, and which have been from time to time reproduced in these columns, are some of the best proofs of the high esteem in which TuE CarLr is held. The following excerpts, | taken from editorial columns in every di- | rection, are further evidences of the ap- | preciation of Tre CALL, and its enterprise | and efforts to advance the best interests of | the State of California. In this issue are given portraits of more | editors who have come to the front, and | titles of newspapers that are well and | favorably known. “The Call’’ and Its New Home. San Francisco, like all other large citi has seen many journals rise, flourish and fade out of existence; but, it has only once seen a paper—once great and influential— lose prestize and growth, day by day, for | years, until its existence seemed only a matter of weeks— ly, as if touched by the wand of the magician, become en- dowed with new life, and in a few months = | | come to the ve front and fore of its | contemporaries, asserting to itself its | right to discuss with them on-an equal intellectnal plane all the great | questions of thed fearless alike of criti- | cism and h: m any source what- | - hydra-headed monster its pages to the welfare it is the acknowl- | San Francisce, we re- once seen such a transforma- | ona dying newspaper; and | llen to the lot of but few people, c edged cham i tness a parallel spectacle.

Within the past few months it became very evident that the accommodations which were more than sufficient for the old CaLL were inadequate for the new journal, and the question arose, Where coula a suitable building site be found,and | who would erect thereon a home for the | young giant? The problem was not long left unsolved. Claus Spreckels, the man whose milli are equal in number to | the ordinary man’syears of life, purchased | the property on the southeast corner of | Third and Market streets, 71x75 feet in di- mensio On this he will erect a splen- story building, the largest | west of Chicago, and the peer in | of any in the United States. | 1l be housed on the thir- | teenth and fourteenth stories; the editorial | and art departments being on the thir- | teenth floor, and on the fourteenth floor the composing-room and stereotyping de- partment. No newspaper in the world | will pos such magnificent quarters. There are those who will congratulate the editor and proprietor of THE CALL on his luck. as they term it; but we say that his present position at the head of the greatest | newspaper on the coast is not luck; 1t is mate result of undivided efforts | in one direction; of a never-faltering deter- mination to be first among his peers. His | success and career from henceforth are not | for us to record; they are a part of the unwritten history of the Golden State | and will be written by an abler pen than | ours. A magnificent picture of THE CaLn building, set in a frame four feet wide and six feet h con be seen at THE CaLL exhibit in the Pavilion.—State Fair Daily. One of the Marvels of the Age. The new home of the:San Francisco CALL | will be one of the marvels of an age of skv- scraping buildings. We present in this issue a splendid picture of TuE Car coming home and an excellent likeness of Charles M. Shortridge, proprietor of this | great P: daily. | M hortridge will have an editorial | sanctum second to none in the country | and work in an office that, towering ab the buildings of his cities, will give him a birdseye view of his local news tield. It is merely a matter of months now when Claus Spreckels’ magnificent fifteen- story building on the southwest corner of | Market and Third streets will be com- pleted. Then San Francisco will have one of the greatest modern buildings on the continent and THE CALL one of the hand- i somest and most complete homes in the newspaper world. Several weeks ago the plans were ac- cepted; some of the contracts have bc:en let and the preparatory work qf clearing the ground of its old structures is already | nder way. | u'In extezior construction the new build- ing represents an immense but very beau- tifully designed tower. The first three stories form the base or pedestal. A These are treated in the massive style, and built of granite, with bush-bammered face, heavily rusticated courses and arched openings for windows. IThe iext seven stories, being the body or shaft of the tower, are very simple and plain in treatment. Above them_the or- namentation begins again, spunpgly at first, but culminating at the thirteenth story in a richly carved and .ornamental frieze, which forms the setting for the massive cornice that surmounts it. : The fourteenth story is treated in a lighter design, being in effecta co!onnade with pilasters between the many ymdow}, while the fifteenth story, being circular in contour, form's the hase for the beautiful and imposing dome. The dome rises 45 feet above its founda- tion, and surmounting the dome is 8 richly ornamented lantern or belvedere 30 feet in height. It is really much more than a 15-story building, for the en.ire height, 310 feet in all, will be utilized. This is an elevation nearly double that reached by tne highest point of any other building in San Francisco. The architects have shown rare taste in their designs, and in all things they have followed faithiully the classic rule to or- | would be a wea | place in the history of California journal- | offices of THE CALL, and the remaining floors, What the Newspapers in all Sections Say of the New Tower Building at Third and Market Streets. nament construction rather than to con- struct ornamentally.

The rise of Charles Shortridge and his brother Samuel M. Shortridge to almost | the zenith of power and influence, while | they are yet young men, is a good illustra- tion of the result of well-directed ambi- | tion. Their success is largely the result of | cold deliberate planning. There is nothing | accidental about it. Samuel M. Shortridge, as a schoolteacher in Napa County, kept | ever in mind the fire and patriotism of | Patrick Henry, the dignity of Webster, the | kindly sympathy in the heart of Garfield. Charies M. Shortridge has made rapid strides the last few years. And hede- serves more than a passing notice, because he gives character to THE CALL, end that, in turn, gives character to the State. There is nothing frivolousabout THE CALL. It has something of the rugged strength of Shortridge's father and mother; and his ideas of right and wrong asa newspaper proprietor are not subject to his present environmentatall.

Claus Spreckels is about to erect a structure on he corner of Market and Third streets with a framework of iron and a facing of brick and stone that may stand asa monu- ment to his enterprise through the years— unless an earthquake shakes it down or a fire burns it up. It is to be in exterior construction an immense tower fifteen stories high and surmounted by a beauti- ful dome and lantern, its total height be- ing 310 feet, an elevation nearly double that of any other building in San Fran- cisco. The building is to be occupied by Tre CALL, and is intended to be the most complete newspaper building in the world. We congratulate that enterprising journal on its call to come up higher.—Portland (Or.) Christian Advocate. The Finest in the West. Now comes the San Francisco CALL with the picture of its proposed new building, which, as THE CALL announces, will stand as a monument to the enterprise and pub- lic spirit of Claus Spreckels. Unquestion- ably Tue CavrL building will be the finest in the West, and probably the most mag- nificent newspaper building in the world. Beno Loening Gazette, RENO, WASHOE COUNTY, NEVADA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 29,1895 yciates. Chailes M. Shortridge has the bappy facuity of getting men around him who are loyal. He does not forget old friends, and he has many of those who | knew him in San Jose now on THE CALL. | As a business man he is quick to see the | merits of a proposition, and forms his | indgments of men, and perhaps of women, | instantly. He does an enormous amount | of business without devoting twenty-four | hours a day to it, and usually has time to | talk to a caller for two minutes. 1 The new Carr building will occupy a big | ism, as will the proprietor of THE CALL.— | Western Journal of Education. | A Grand Structure. | El Nuevo Edificio del CaLr.—Este sober- | bio editicio que constara de 15 pisos y como remate una grandiosa cupsla, se levantara, dentro de pocos meses, en la calle de Mar- | ket, esquina de la calle Tercera, en esta | ciudad. La elevacion sera de 510 pies, o | sea como unos 100 mas que cualquiera otro edificio en San Francisco. Los pisos 13y 14 seran ocupados por las oficinas y depen- | dencias del CaLL, excepto la principal que | estara.en el primer piso, y los restantes se | destinaran a oficinas particulares, El estilo | arquitectivo sera del renacimiento italiano y romano. Los arquitectos encargados de la construccion de este magno edificio son i los senores Reid Bros.—El Comercio (San | Francisco). [Translation—This superb edifice for THE | CaLL will be fifteen stories in height, sur- mounted by a magnificent dome, and will soon be erected—that is, within a few months—at | the corner of Market and Third streets in this City. The height of the building will be 310 feet, or about 100 feet taller than any other structure in San Francisco. The thirteenth and fourteenth stories will be occupied by the with the exception of the ground floor, in which will be the main business department, will be devoted to office use. The style of architecture will be Italian renaissance and romanesque. The architects who will super- vise the construction of this grand building are the Reid Bros.] A Very Tall Structure. Claus Spreckels is about to erect at the corner of Market and Third streets, in San Francisco, a fifteen-story structure of steel, stone and cement, which will overtop the Chronicle building by 100 feet. It will be the home of THE CALL, and so it will turn out that the great fortunes amassed by Mills, Crocker, Spreckels, Hearst and others like them will prove blessings to the State instead of a curse. Those fortunes were all made in legitimate business, for which the wotld is the better. Everybody knows how Claus Spreckels built up and is con- stantly adding to the sugar industry on this coast, and most of us remember when we used to pay $1 for eight pounds of “brown” sugar and sand, where we now get twice as much of the choicest product of his refineries for the same money. In building up his fortune he gave employ- ment to thousands of men and built up and made prosperous regions, which before they felt his magic touch produced abso- lutely nothing, The wealth thus accumu- lated is not to be hoarded up in strong boxes, but it is being constantly invested in other enterprises which will add to the wealth and prosperity of the State. If it were not for Spreckels and his fortune we would have no Valley railroad with its at- tendant blessings.—Bakersfield Democrat. As a Tower on All Sides. The announcement that Clans Spreckels is about to erect on the corner of Third and Market a monumental building has ex- cited much interest in this City. We do not particularly admire the average “‘sky- scraper’’—the usual American tall build- ing looks either like a factory chimney or a gigantic dry-goods box—but there is no doubt that the architectural treatment se- lected by Mr. Spreckels’ architects will mage the building an ornament to the City. TItisto betreated as a tower, and rise to a height of over two hundred feet. It is probable that the idea was suggested by the building on lower Broadway, New York City, known as the Tower Building. But as that is merely on a narrow lot in the center of a block, nothing but tne facade effect is given. The Spreckels build- ing in San Francisco is apparently to be treated as a tower on all sieds. It is rather interesting to speculate as to what will be the effect if other tall buildings are erected on the south and west faces of the tower in time to come.—The £ rgonaut. | America. The Most Imposing. San Francisco is happy in the prospect of the possession of a business building Its design represents a mammoth tower, 316 feet high, surmounted by a magnifi- cent dome and generously decorated with the most beautiful conceits of architec- tural genius. Under its new management ‘Tur CaLL has made surprising strides for- ward, and the press of the country will congratulate it upon the prospect of hav- ing so palatial a home.—Butte (Mont.) Miner. A Model of Clean Journalism. The San Francisco CALL is rapidly near- ing the front of the procession of metro- politan journals. In fact, it furnishes a model for most of the great papers of Its pages, while singularly free from the sensational and odiously sug- gestive “literature” of the average “‘great daily,”” are yet replete with interest. THE Cavrr hasall the news and is edited and vublished by men who thoroughly under- stand their business and the interests and desires of the reading public. The new Carr building to be erected at the corner of Third and Market streets will be one of the finest newspaper valaces in the United States.—San Luis Obispo Breeze. The Grandest Newspaper Home. The San Francisco CaLL is soon to be domiciled in a marble palace more super- nal than evera king occupied. The lofty marble pile will be reared on the corner of Market and Third streets, and will cost the owner, Claus Spreckels, a mint of money. The building will be 310 feet high and in aprearance will represent a tower of ex- quisite design. It will look down 100 feet Richard Webb, Editor of the Amador Republican, Jackson, Amador County. on the highest of San Francisco’s business edifices, and stand unique among the great buildings of this continent. When com- vleted, THE CALL will have the most com- plete and grandest newspaper home extant, and San Francisco one of the most impos- ing and beautiful structures in America.— Ontario Observer. The Grandest of All. The San Francisco CALL of August 17 presents a picture and fuil description of the magnificent new building which it will soon occupy at the corner of Market and Third streets, in consequence of the en- terprise of Mr. Claus Spreckels in erecting such a splendid specimen of architecture. The building will be fifteen stories with a massive dome and cupola, and in style a good deal of the appearance of the New York World building. It will be the largest and grandest structure on the Pa- cific Coast, and a fit home for the leading San Francisco newspaper.—New York Ma- rine Journal. It Will Loom Up Grandly, Tre CavL of the 18th contains three cuts representing the Crocker, the Mills and the Chronicle building, and a fourth one representing the new CALL building as it is projected. If THE CALL is builtac- cording to that plan it will loom up grandly about four stories higher than the Chron- icle. A man can stand in the tower of THE CaLL when completed and look down upon the top of the famous clock tower that sur- mounts the Chronicle. Eureka Standard. Has Risen to the Top. In a year’s time the San Francisco CaLy, that paper which, under the able control of Brother Shortridge, has risen to the top and stands at the head of California jour- handsomest building in the State—and one of the finest and best equipped offices in the world. TuE CALL'S new home will be a fifteen-story marble palace, located on the corner of Market and Third streets. It will be 310 feet high. Claus Spreckels will erect the structure, at a cost of nearly $1,000,000. This skyscraper will be over 100 feet taller than the Chronicle building. It will be a fitting home for the greatest paper on the coast—TuE CArL.—Redding Democrat. Outranking Others. The new Carr, which has made such | rapid strides of late under the editorial guidance of Charles M. Shortridge, has evidently come to stay. A new building is now being erected at the corner of Market and Third streets, that for height and beauty of architecture will outrank any in San Francisco. This wiil be the headquar- ters of the great daily, that, during the few months it has been under the new man- agement, has demonstrated what a news- aper can do for its State and itself, when | conducted upon proper lines. Our best wishes are extended to Tue Cawi, fora long and prosperous service in the work it has umlortuken.—Dowx.lieville Messenger. One of the Foremost.

It will occupy the corner of Third and Market streets, and will loom up in the shape of a 75-foot square tower, with a fine dome surmounting it. The lo- cation is one of the best business corners in the City, and the building when com- pleted will dwarf anything surrounding it. It will be a fit habitation for one of the foremost Pacific Coast journals.—Van- couver (B. C.) Free Press. The Most Complete.

When | completed this will be the finest business structure in the United States ana the handsomest and comnvletest newspaper | building in the world.—Orange Post. A Superior Establishment. The San Francisco CALrr, which, under its new management, has come so rapidly to the front in the journalism of that City, | will before long be housed in quarters worthy of a first-class metropolitan daily. It will have accommodations in the superb Spreckels building, soon to be erected, the architects of which, Reid Bros., designed the Coronado Hotel and Portland Oregonian building. When Tae CALL is fairly installed in its new home its establishment will be superior, it is said, to that of any newspaper in the United States.—San Diego Union. Genuine Enterprise. The San Francisco CALL made arrange- ments by which its New York correspond- ents had special advantages in witnessing the international yacht races. They took | passage on the Mackay-Bennett steamer, which was telegraphically connected with the New York office of the Postal Tele- graph Company, and from there dissemi- nated to all parts of the world. At San Francisco THE CALL by models made a public display of the positions of each yacht during the ran, so that an ob- server could see the race run about as well as if on the spot where it really occurred.— Berkeley Gazette. Taking Giant Strides. : The San Francisco CALL in its issue of the 17th 1nst. gives an illustration of its new home, which is being built by Claus Spreckels on the corner of Third and Mar- ket streets, opposite the Chronicle build- ing. It is to be fifteen stories high, and when completed will tower 310 feet in the air, or over 100 feet higher than any build- ing on the Pacific Coast. THE CALL is taking giant strides in the race of progress and is in harmony with the people on all the important questions of the day. Suec- cess to Tue CarL.—Hawthorne (Nev.) Bul- letin. Of Principle and for the People. The San Francisco CALn is having a building built fifteen stories high. It will be a handsome building, as well as the highest in the City. It will be 310 feet Ligh, with a beautiful marble tower. It is» wonderful to think how TnEe CaLy has ad- vanced in favor since Mr. Shortridge bought it. It is decidedly the cleanest, least sensational paper in the City. Tuk CaLL is a paper of principle, one that you can always tell where it stands. It is for the people, and therefore is supported by the people.—Corning Observer. An Imposing Home. The San Francisco CALLis to have the finest building on the Pacific Coast, and one of the finest in the land. It is a mat- ter of congratulation for THE CaLu that one of the leading papers of the coast is to bhave such a magnificent and imposing home. It will be in the shape of a square castle, contain fifteen stories and be 310 feet high to top of dome pole. It isa mag- nificent advertisement for Tue CarrL, and is another indication of the wonderful strides this great paper is making.—Mount Pleasant (Utah) Pyramid. For That Enterprising Journal, In Saturday’s CALL there is a picture of the new office that is to be built for that enterprising journal. The building will be constructed of white marble and will be fifteen stories high with a mammoth dome. The building will be 310 feet high and the finest one ever erected on this coast.— Woodland Journal. Advancing in the Art of Journalism.

Under the management of Mr. Shortridge THE CALL has been steadily ad- vancing in the art of journalism, and now stands neck and neck with the two leading City papers. It will soon erect a splendid building on the block on the southeast corner of Third and Market streets, which will be its future home.—Mendocino Bea- con. Magnificent in Every Respect. All three of the San Francisco morning papers have illustrations and accounts of a splendid new structure, fifteen stories in height, projected by Claus Spreckels and to be occupied in part by Tur CarLasa home. It is to be more than 100 feet higher than any other skyscraper in town, and is to be very magnificent in every re- spect.

It wasa perfect Indian summer day and the grass and trees were greener and the sky and ocean bluer than for many days. The breeze blew from the north. It came down from the pine-clad Sier:as and brought a fra- grance of its own with it. It was thin and dry and exhilarating to breathe, and though the sun was hot the tendency to perspire was much less than when the tradewinds from off the ocean blow over the land. The drives were crowded with holiday vehiclesand bicycle riders. There were hundreds of graceful bloomer girls on the road between the panhandle and the beach and the white sands of the beach were black all day with its thousands of loiterers. The seats in front of the music- stand were at 8 premium and even a point of vantage on the greensward in the vicin- ity was hard to get if one came late. Sutro’s baths were handsomely patron- ized and the Heights were thronged all afternoon. A good many visited the Park museum, but most people preferred being out of doors. At the museum a number of new exhibits were seen. Paul Breon has contributed some Zuni Indian pottery from New Mexico; Dr. 8. C. Mish, a model of a Samoan canoe; J. H. La Dieu a news- paper of 1865, containing the first news of the assassination of President Lincoln; Miss Carrie Smith, a skull and a stone mortar from an extinct tribe of redmen on Santa Catalina Isiand; J. L. Bardwell, enormous antlers of a wild Texas steer, and W. L. Bromley has loaned some colo- nial relics. —————— IN THE HANDBALL COURTSR. Several Interesting and Closely Con= tested Games Played. The fine weather of yesterday had a de- pressing effect upon the attendance at the handball courts, as most of the crack play- ers took a holiday and enjoyed themselves in contemplating the beauties of the sea and landscape. Champion Jones of Australia met with a slight accident yesterday morning, which prevented him taking part in the games at the San Francisco court. The principal game at this court was between Walter Williams of Boston and J. McEvely and J. Lawless and D. Connolly, which was won by the two former, chiefly through the misplays of Connolly. At the Union court an interesting and keenly contested game was played between John Feeney and George Hutchmson and M. Dillon and Al Pennoyer. It was any- body’s game from start to finish. The fea- tures were the service of Hutchinson and the hitting of Feeney. It was won by Feeney and Hutchinson. The game of the day at the Occidental court was between Ed Maloney and T. Clements and L. Kenny and Dolan, the two former winning in three straights. On Wednesday night James C. Nealon and T. F. Bonnet wil% play a return match against M. J. Kilgallon and R. Linehan, and E. Maloney and V. C. Tobin will play John Purcell and Al Collins. —————— Caught a Petty Burglar. Policeman Thomas Stanton arrested William Mariner on Third street yesterday morning on & charge of burglary. Mariner is accused of en- tering John Orognen’s room at 317 Third street six weeks ago and siealing a gold watch. He said he was a baker by trade. HEALTH LAWS.
