New Railroad Depot.
The Southern Pacific Company is max
ing rapid progress in the construction of a
freight depot and yard on Shattuck ave-
nue., off Stanford place, upon the site
known as Stanford Park. Some of tie
merchants have expressed themselves as
highly pleased with the idea of having
freight depot near at hand, since through
its construction they will not be forced to
haul their supplies from West Berkeley,
two and a half miles distant. Other cti-
Zens of the town have taken a decided
stand against allowing the work to pro-
coed, but no official or legal action has yet
been taken in the matter
The property upon which the depot is
to be loca ted was decided TO the town some
thing over year ago by The railroad COM
pany, upon condition that it be converted
into park within a year. The year is up
and nothing has been done by the town
toward improving the property, and AS
more centrally located depot has been
found to be necessity the railroad COM
pany has commenced its construction.
Demolished Bicycle.
On Friday evening T. Holtz stepped into
a friends house on Delaware street, leav-
ing his bicycle on the sidewalk, but upon
returning the wheel was gone. A Deputy
Marshal was notified of the theft and yes
terday morning the machine was found IN
a vacant lot on Third street, completely
demolished. There were footprints about,
leading to the creek, but beyond this no
clew to the offender was discovered.
Unitarian Services Resumed.
The services of the First Unitarian
Church will be resumed this morning at
Stiles Hall, after vacation of two months.
The ervices will be conducted by the
regular pastor, Rev. e. B. Payne.
