' When a party of business men en tered the handsome new Lipman, "Wolfe ', ft Co. building yesterday afternoon aa special guests of the department store Arm, they expected to take a cursory i Rlimpse of the Interior and hurry back ! to their respective offices. But they i had had no conception of the magni j tude and the attractiveness of the es ! tabllshment. and they remained for ; more than two hours, to be taken by a succession of surprises that awaited them on every floor. - Piloted by Adolphe Wolfe, senior I member of the firm, and A. E. Doyle, I of Doyle, Patterson & Beach, the Port I land architects who designed and su perintended the construction of the . ten-story building, the guests were whisked to the top floor in the battery I of smoothly moving elevators. There : they learned that virtually a half block , of floor space will be used for reserve I stock. A big elevator on the Alder treet side of the building conveys shipments to this floor, where goods i are opened and arranged In systemat c order, so that when merchandise is I needed In any department it can be dls 1 patched in chutes to lta destination I without delay. The fixtures on this floor are com plete, but give only a hint as to what i is to be found In the way of Interior j finishings and fixtures on the lower floors. On the ninth floor are the general workshops for all the depart ments. The eighth floor will be used . temporarily as a stock room. Seventh Floor Hu Surprise. Passing to the seventh floor, the vis itors were given their first big sur , prise. Here they moved through a labyrinth of solid mahogany stalls, fix tures and compartments. In the cen ter of this floor are the dressmaking parlors. A striking feature of this . department is an octagonal room to be used for the fitting of evening gowns. ! The general offl:es of the company ars ' n .his floor. It was on this floor that ' the guests learned what the company a plans re for providing comfort and conveniences for employes. A large part of this floor will be devoted to a spacious rest and lounging-room and lunchroom. These rooms are for ex clusive use of employes, i It remained for the striking appear ance of the sixth floor to cause still additional expression of admiration from the visitors.

Special compartments and fixtures to display merchandise to the best advantage have been installed On the fourth floor are the muslin, under wear corset and Juvenile departments. ! The fixtures on these two floors also : are of solid mahogany. 1 Perhaps the most handsome and i striking part of the building is the i third floor. Here every fixture is of solid Circassian walnut, of massive yet ' simple design. At the northeast cor ! ner Is a series of French rooms to be used for the fitting of evening gowns. In this compartment provision has been made for both natural and artificial ' light, so that any effect desired by the patron in fitting a gown can be made pronounced. The remainder of this ' floor is to be used for the cloak, suit ' and waist departments. The second floor will probably be one of tnc most popular parts of the estab lishment, for here will be carried silks, '.yard goods, patterns and similar mer- ichandlse, while a large space at the northeast corner of the building will I be given over to a restroom ior snop T ..fnaiTinsp fii i in uuur will be devoted to the art needle work and 'millinery departments, Tne nrst noor 'will contain such departments as yard . goods, furnishings.
