MAKING HASTE.

In response 70 an inquiry from Wails
wslIa, the Commissioner Of the General
Land Ofice recently wrote that the
Northern Pacific brsnsh line, from q
point near Yakima 70 junction with
the main line near Ainsvorth. was def
niteIy located June -. 1888, by the filing
OF a map In that Office; but that no
withdrawal has been made upon this
definite location, the limits not having
been adjusted" This rapid progress in
railroad building by q company that Is
" in good faith striving to grab about
oue-third the lands of the Territory,
should not be overlooked. Ii has only
taken nineteen years for the manage
ment TO rush things" 50 far as to
make mp its mind what portion OF East
ern Washington was most valuable or
desirable to he obtained. This import
ant matter determined, they " file a
map" They have filed maps over this
Territory already in such indiscriminste
profusion that If all we're represented at
one time, the unmapped portion would
be Totally unacceptable. This last
map OF definite location 1.-THE number Is
not given was filed some thirteen
months ago. yet the withdrawal limits
have not been adjusted. Meanwhile
We suppose the old Cowlitz Pass with
drawal still covers the country, and, of
course, extends much farther south than
will the new lines when established.
At some time in the dim hereafter it il
probable that the line of definite loca-
ton will be extended across the noun
tains toward the Sound, and An unborn
generation may witness final adjust
msnt of withdrawal limits. Pending

An ELEGANT STRUCTURE.

The New Residence OF Or. II. r. Minor.
Among the many ornaments that have
recently been added to our city, none is
more wor thy Of being locked upon with
pride and pleasure than the new resi-
dence How almost completed for DR.. L.
L. Minor. This building is situated on
Twelfth street, Just south of Columbia.
The site is magnificent, the view of the
city and the bay being simply superb.
The ground slopes gently for some dis
lance In front of the building, and then
drops of as the sleeper incline is reach
cd, 1t thus being impossible that the
view should ever be interfered with.
The appearance of the building from
the outside Is very attractive. A taste
ful arrangement OF porches and bay
windows adds much to the general
effect, and relieves the otherwise square
style of architecture.
A spacious piazza, reached by flight
Of steps, extends along the entire front.
From this the front door opens into the
main hall. Upon entering. one is at
frst struck with the splendid proper
tons of the rooms. They are all large,
high ceiled and remarkably veil lighted.
TO the right of the hall is room which
DIR. Minor proposes to utilize as an office,
and to the left il the parIor. Beyond the
latter second piazza looks toward the
north. On the east side of the parlor
folding doors open into the dining room.
and from this communication is had
through back hall with the kitchen,
which occupies the northeast corner of
the building. This room is Is feet in
length by Is in breadth. In the south
east corner is another room of the same
size which will be used as sitting room.
Beyond this again is fine conservatory
from which We can return TO the front
hall by passing across short piazza
and through the office.
Ascending the main stairway, one en-
ters second large hall, to the right and
left OF which are sleeping rooms GORE
spending in size and shape to the parler
and office below. The rear of the sec
ond story ID divided into smaller sleep.
ing rooms, an unusually large space be-
ing given up to Railways, closets, etc.
The house Is to be heated throughout
by furnace and TO be supplied with all
the modern conveniences. The sanitary
arrangements are most perfect indeed
so perfect that 1t is plainly apparent
that IN this department Doctor Minor
himself has given many suggestions TO
the architects. In fact, the house il a
model, inside and out, and every citizen
of Seattle, as well AZ its possess0r, can
feel proud of it.
