Improvements.
The railroad racket, with St. Paul as the
pivotal point, is not confined by any means
to considerations growing out of the ''treaty
of peace" consummated between the North
ern Pacific and St. Paul & Pacific railroad
companies, consummated within the last few
days. There is booming all around, and the
future is full of promise.
Yesterday, while a GLOBE reporter was
wandering about the st. Paul & Pacific Office,
looking for what he could pick up in the way
of news, he was SO fortunate as to meet with
Mr.. Joseph Upper, contractor on the Pembi-
ma branch of tie Canadian Pacific, who ia
in the city on business connected with the
speedy completion of the line MIR. Upper
says there yet remains to complete the con
nection some twenty five miles of iron. Ar
engagements have all been made for layinr
the iron from both ends. The rail tor the
entire distance has been received, and the
trouble as to ties, which has caused some
delay, has been removed, SO that
now work will go forward without
interruption, and Nj. Upper anticipates,
making due allowance for probable bad
weather, that the connection will be made
and the line in operation, not later than the
10th of next month. This road is being
laid with steel rail, and the road bed is Of
the most thorough construction, so that, MIR.
Upper says, trains can run with perfect safe
tv from the start at the rate Of thirty miles
an hour.
lie st. Paul & Pacific have commenced
operating the line to Pembina, trains leaving
here at P. M. and arriving at Z next morn
ing. When the Pembina branch is opened
this time will be very materially shortened.
Depots and side tracks. switches, ETC.. are
now being constructed, and if the present
fine weather continues few days longer the
company will have things in good shape for
the winter.
The branch line of the st. Paul & Pacific
is now being operated to Alexandria, trains
arriving there at night and leaving in the
morning for St. Paul. This is said to be one
of the best pieces of new road ever built in
the State.
The new roundhouse of the st. Panl 3,
Pacific is we'll under way and will be raLi idly
pushed to completion. This structure is Of
wood, but is being substantially built and is
intended for twelve engines.
Increased activity is shown in the con-
struction of the new line across the fats to
connect with the double track to the st.
Paul & Pacific machine shops and round
houses, gravel train and large force of
men being engaged upon the work.

The collection of paintings on view yester-
day in the Opera-house block, and which are
to be offered for salo this evening, and the
two succeeding evenings, by the we'll known
art auctioneer, Mr.. 3. Scott, contains few
paintings as fine as ever came into this city,
and many very meritorious works. Out OF
the whole collection Of $50, there are but a
few inferior subjects. and only twelve cop

and the treatment mastery. There are
great merits in ''Deer in the Highlands"

tistlc, the forshortening excellent, the detail
well worked out.
Two very fine animal cabinets by Boo

other feeding time. A painting associated
with stirring times is G.. H. Chapin's "Old

picture is we'll treated. Among the larger
compositions is a fine marine picture ''Fish-
ing Boats in the channel,'' by A. Robins.

precludes detailed notices. It should be
borne in mind that these pictures are not

These are an entirely different lot.
