The improvements Manager Merrill Ii
Making and has in Contemplation.
General Manager s. s. Merrill and Gener-
al Superintendent w. G. Van Horn, of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railway,
spent most of the day in st. Paul yesterday,
looking after the extensive impro vements
being made by the company here, and left
on their return to Milwaukee last evening.
Among the Improvements in progress and
which the company is hurrying forward
with characteristic energy, is that of filling
up the low land beyond and adjoining the
st. Paul & Manitoba yard, and extending
along the river bank to Dayton's bluff, to be
utilized for yard room, the business of the
company at this point having largely out
grown their present accommodations. The
company have a large force of men
and two gravel trains employed on this work,
under whose operations the low waste places
of that locality are being rapidly filled up
and covered with new tracks. Another i'm
provement here made imperative by the
growth of the business, and the new plans
of the company, is new round house, and
the GLOBE has the pleasure of stating that a
decision to that effect has been arrived at,
upon which work is soon to commence. The
new structure will be built for sixteen or
twenty engines, probably the latter number.
Other improvements are being considered, Of
which the GLOBE will speak in due time.

which stores of the description noted could
be erected, but the property owners seem re-
luctant to invest thel necessary means,
although a good rate of interest upon the
investment may be guaranteed them.
There will be considerable drawback to
the growth of tho city unless something is
done to compel the erection of both resi-
dences and stores.
Another thing. Our sewerage system is
sadly defective. Though this city is admir-
ably situated as far as regards drainage, the
fact is that nearly all of our public and
business buildings are rendered almost un-
tenable on account of the presence OF
sewer gas. There is, very apparently, a
serious defect in the plan of construction
of our sewers, and there should be snch
changes IS will remedy the defect.

Ninety Days Tor "Pinafore" Drunk


Through the dismal and driving sleet
that filled the air and sent cold shivers to
the very marrow of the belated pedestrian,
night before last, on West Third streat,
might have been seen the form of homeless
woman. Above the roar of the piercing
wind, keen as a razor, might have been heard
the shriIl piping voice of woman carolling
NOUS sounds and discords "Pinafore.' %
led form, that spoke of pitiable union of
vice with penury, the bleak character of the
surroundings, looked as if nature had trick
ed up the scene to crafty an unwonted freak
of sullenness.
Within a few feet of the rum-sodden and
shivering wretch shone wooden transpar-
ency bearing in huge, brazen letters the
mystic legend, "Pinafore." Within the
transparency flickered a dim light which
cast sickly CLEAN on the miserable sur
roundings of the place, and made the scene
more dismal. As indicated by the above,
the saloon bore the name of "Pinafore, -
and within were heard the not uncertain
sounds of midnight revelry. During the
night the woman had visited the saloon
several times, and she had emerged this
time staggering and maudlin from drink.
Officer Mcmahon came along at the oppor-
tune moment and took the wretched crea-
ture to the lookup, where she was at least
kept from freezing.
Yesterday morning she was brought before
Judge Flint, who listened attentively until
the magic name "Pinafore" was uttered,
when the clerk almost went into a spasm.
The court could stand anything but "Pina-
fore,'' and the mistaken creature was COM
mitted for ninety days. The reporters wag-
ged their ears by way of approval, happy at
the speedy termination of the agony.

IT seems to us that the senate of the Uni
ted States could employ its time to much
better advantage than by receiving COM
munications from people concerned in we'll,
established blacknailing schemes. The fact
that Senator Hill wrote the report recon-
mending the expulsion of Senator Kellogg
from the seat that he has wrongfully held
for several years did not justify the latter il
dragging before the country the name of 6
depraved woman in connection with the
Senator from Georgia. Thurman fttingly
characterized the act, and we believe the
whole country will agree in denouncing the
incident as cowardly and malicious.

upon an amendment to the constitution IN

OF course the amendment will have to be
submitted to the people for confirmation,
but there seems to be no good reason to sup

ST. PAUL,S GROWTH.

The city of st. Paul no doubt has a bril-
liant future before it. 1t is the greatest
railroad center of the whole Northwest. At
the head of navigation on the Mississippi
river it was designed by nature to be the
great distributing point for the produce of
the millions who will shortly inhsbit this
region. Geographically it is more favorably
situated than even Chicago, and is destined
to become the chief city of a vast empire ex
tending hundreds of miles in all directions.
No western railroad corporation is now
organized without due regard to the city of
st. Paul. Unless it has direct communion
ton or can obtain favorable connections
with this city it languishes and dies. But
if st. Paul is its objective point
capitalists place their means in unre-
stricted amounts at the disposal
of the projectors, being assured that the
enterprise will prove profitable. This is the
goal for which all railroad projects are reach
ing, and the experience of the past gives a
guarantee to the promise of the future that
the most satisfactory results will be obtained
OlNSuihfIy enough tne DuSln6SS men ana
capitalists of St. Paul are alone of all the
world apparently, dead to the real importance
of the city as commercial and distributing
point. Many of our streets contiguous to
the business portion of the city are as barren
of improvements as when they were first
wrested from the possession of the savages
Our population has been increasing at a
rapid rate for the past two years, and gives
promise of still greater increase during the
year that is now in progress. Yet there is
not vacant residence in the city, and the
prospect is that thousands of mechanics
and workingmen who will flock to the city in
the spring will be obliged to live in rooms
or at boarding houses until such time as
our real estate owners shall feel disposed to
erect houses for their accommodation.
There is another class that is seeking &C.
commodation here. A large number of
small tradesmen are looking for stores that
command moderate rental, but these are
impossible to obtain at the present time.
There are plenty of eligible locations upon
