AN UPTOWN DEPOT.
Northern Pacific Trains to Start
From Columbia Street.
OLD STATION TO BE GIVEN UP.
New Lake Shore Ofdcers-Bridges on
tie Great Northern-First Cana
dian Pacific Train.

In ten DAYS time or less the old North
ern Pacific depot at South Second and
Weller streets will be thing of the past,
and the passenger business and operating
department of the Northern Pacific and OF
the Seattle, Lake Shore & Eastern road
will be transacted at the depot st the loot
of Columbia street.
Work was begun yesterday on the neces-
sary improvements to carry this idea into
effect. The present depot at the foot Of
Columbia street will be materially i'm
proved and enlarged so as to enable the
Northern Pacific and the Lake Shore &
Eastern to transact their business with
comfort, safety and dispatch.
Considerable work will be done to i'm
prove the present building, and an ex-
tension of 100 feet southwark will be made.
This extension will be but one story in
hight, but viii be sufficient TO provide @
large baggage room and two good waiting
rooms and a ticket Office. The operating
department will also be removed TO this
place.
The original intention was to erect
commodious depot on this site, but there
is prospect that the Great Northern will
join with the Northern Pacific, and the
two companies erect handsome and sub
stantial union depot. The Northern Pa
cilic people have such confidence that this
will ultimately be arranged that it will
only make such present improvements as
are absolutely necessary. The running of
Northern Pacific trains to and from the
depot at the foot of Columbia street will be
Q great convenience for the public.
Superintendent Nadeau stated yesterday
that the removal of the down town depot
would cause no material change in the
present force of employees.

NOW THE SOLE OWNER.
Samuel Rosenberg Buys the Interest of
L. kline'S Estate.

The well-known clothing house of Kline
& Rosenberg passed yesterday into the
hands of Samuel Rosenberg, the junior
member of the firm.
Following the death in San Francisco a
year ago of l.. Kline, the senior member of
the firm, the house went into the hands of
an administrator, and short time ago a
sale of stock was ordered. Yesterday the
sale was closed by Mr.. Rosenberg purchas-
ing from the estate his deceased partners
interest. The business will hereafter
be conducted at the same place, Front
street, foot of Cherry, under the same
name and by the same manager-Mr.
Rosenberg. This clothing house was
established in Seattle twelve years ago,
and by honest dealing and persistent
energy the firm has built up an enviable
business. The firm lost heavily during
the great fire; but hardly before the ashes
were cold they erected a five-story build
ing in which their store is now located.
Mr.. Rosenberg has Just returned from
New York with full line of spring goods,
and the stock is now on exhibition.

TEARING DOWN POLES,
Union Company Removing Useless APP
paratus-Electrical Notes.

The Union Electric Company put
large force of men to work yesterday at
removing wires and poles on West street,
where the lines of the old companies had
been running parallel to each other.
There are nearly 400 of these duplicate
poles to be removed in various parts of the
city.
Manager Kilbourne stated yesterday
that the great Thomson ouston and
Edison deal had been practically consum-
mated, the consolidators having secured
control oil 80 Of the former and 90 per cent
OF the latter stock.
Il do not credit the rumor," said DR..
Kiibourne, that Edison is to be frozen
out. I don't think that Edison is as in
dispensable as some men claim. In the
electrical world there are many men who
are vastly more useful from practical
point of view than Edison, yet he is vaIu-
able for what he may achieve in the fu-
ture."
All business of the new Union company
is being transacted from the office on
Second street. The office of the Seattle
General Electric Company is still beng
operated and will continue open until all
oil its old business is completely wound up.

GREAT NORTHERN AT SPOKANE.
Grade to BE Completed May 1-Change
of Route in Big Bend.

SPOKANE, March 15-[Special. MIR. H.
G. Coykendall returned this morning
from Chattaroy from an inspection of
progress of work of grading between Spo-
kane and that point. He says that work
is progressing splendidly, even better than
he had anticipated. Four-ffths of the dis
lance between here and Chattaroy he
said will be graded by April 10, and all of
it will be completed May 1. Some of the
contracts will be finished in ten days. Ex-
eeedingly fine weather has materially
aided in the rapid execution of the work.
Mr.. Coykendall said that all the con-
tracts were practically let for grading west
of Spokane to Harrington, distance of
about iifty-ive miles. At that point they
have been temporarily delayed on account
OF a slight change in the line in order to
get lighter grade. The delay, however,
will not last more than week or ten days,
at most, and then the contracts will be let
on west toward the Columbia.

etery. The Fourth was in General Max
Weber's brigade of French's division,
Second corps. With the rest of the divi-
sion 1t charged across Bloody Lane into the
Cornfield on the morning of Sept II, 1862.
The scene was famous for desperate work,
md the regiment lost SO killed and 1870
wounded in very brief time.
The monument stands about one-half a
mile from the spot where the regiment
fought and has been placed in the Gene
terry In order to insure good care. The
work has cost 81 900 and the funds have
been raised among the survivors and their
friends The scheme for the memorial
originated with the president of the regi-
mental association, 7. I. Donovan, and
Sergeant w. G. Ormsbee. The structure
is of gray granite with bronze ornaments.
The Fourth New York was raised in
New York city and Brooklyn and served
two years. 1t joined the Army of the Po-
tomac on Sept. 10, 1862, the day before the
fight at Antietam. 1t was in the charge
at Maryes Height in December, 1862, and
lost sixty-eight killed and wounded, in
front of the stone wall.
1t volunteered to go in the Chancellors-
vile campaign in May, 1868, after the term
for which it enlisted had expired. and Gen
eral Couch, the corps commander, hui
namely saved it from threatened destruc-
ton in front of masked battery at Chan
cellorsville by n peremptory written order
to counterma ~ch from the scene of danger.
Memorial work has been neglected at
Antietam, the field of the first great Union
victory of the war and the one responsible
for the emancipation proclamation. The
battle was fought out in day, and con-
sidering its duration was the bloodiest of
the war. There are two monuments in
position at Autetam, besides the Fourth
New York. The Twentieth New York has
one in the cemetery, and the Fifth Mary
land has one in the field almost obscured
by weeds The government has recently
placed markers for the positions occupied
by the regular regiments which partici-
pated in the battle.

PORTRAITS OF COLUMBUS.

The public school pupils, who are
going to have the lead all over America
in the celebration of the 4OOth anniver-
tary of the discovery of America by
Columbus, are already asking how Co
lumbus looked.
Many leading American publications
have recently contained timely articles
on the great discoverer, and the variety
of portraits which has accompanied these
articles has been surprising.
By the highest authorities it is con-
coded that there is no likeness of Colum-
bus whose claim to consideration is in
1isputable.
From Oviedo and his own son Ferdi-
nand-two persons who knew him-we
have descriptions of his appearance,
1pon which must be based our judg-
nent of the alleged portraits.
From them we learn that his face
was long, neither full nor thin; his
cheek bones rather high; his nose aqui-
line; his eyes light gray; his complexion
fair and high colored. Up to the age Of
thirty his hair was of light color, but
became rapidly gray after that age. 1t
must be admitted in the face of these
details that not one of the portraits gives
very positive evidence of presenting the
great discoverer as he lived.
The earliest claimant for considera-
ton is wood engraving by Paolo
Giovio, published in 1916, which we

the reunion shall not clash with the

pilgrimages come close together the

the Army of the Cumberland upheld the
flag alone against parts of three Confed-
crate armies, having a preponderance In
numbers
AS time rolls on the interest of the vet
Grams in the scene of their exploits grows
deeper, and the valley of Chickamauga
has become the Mecca of the battlefield
pilgrims of the west, as Gettysburg has
long been in the east. The field is included
in the Chickamauga and Chattanooga Mil
tary Park, which the government and q
board of civilian commissioners are i'm
proving on an extensive plan All of the
roads in the district have been put in good
order, and the sum of S125, 200 has been APP
propriated by congress, and with addi-
tional funds raised from other sources the
commissioners are prepared for elaborate
work. The boundaries of the field have
been marked off, and six observation tow
ers at most eligible points will enable
sightseers to take in the scene quite as sat
isfactorily as the Gettysburg field can be
viewed from Gettysburg's hills.
The positions of the troops of both armies
by regiments and batteries are to be
marked, and corps of authorized guides
will escort visitors over the ground The
outlines of the fields and also of the forests
will be restored to the original likenesses
and so preserved. With the improvements
under way and to follow, Chickemauga
