DEPOT NEARING COMPLETION
New Union Station Will Be Opened Without
Fail December l.
BUILDING WILL Be A MODEL OF BEAUTY
Interior Furnishings superb and
Marble Decorations Excite Admir-
ation-Evcry Arrangement for
Comfort and Convenience.

Acting under pressing instructions from
| contractors and foremen. who in turn are
being urged to their best endeavor by
officials of the Union Pacific Railway com
! pany, workmen are bending every energy
| toward the completion of the new union
| depot Unlookedfor accidents and cir
cumstances have delayed the opening OF the
building far beyond the time originally set.
However, the building which is TO furnish
depot facilities for several of the big rail-
ways entering Omaha Is now practically
completed. A few finishing touches are
being put on the exterior here and there,
but in the main attention is now being di-
rected toward completing the interior and
arranging the depot surroundings.
The edict has gone forth from official
headquarters that the new depot must be
ready for occupancy by December l. 1t is
expected that the interior will be completed
next Saturday. Then will come the cleaning
of the building and the setting Of the fur
niture.
The arrangement of the depot is admir-
able. Every convenience is at hand for the
accommodation of travellers. The marble
furnishings are superb. Var-colored mar
BILE, polished beautifully, has been brought
from Vermont, Tennessee and Georgia. The
walls Of the main waiting room are vain
scoted with marble of a delicate green color
to the height of thirteen feet.
Workmen are completing the train yards,
tracks, sheds and the driveway and stairway
leading from the viaduct. The unpreten-
tious frame building which has done service
as the Union depot will be torn down and
on its site additional freight trackage will
be laid. There will be no connection be-
tween the Union and the Burlington depots
by means of passageway across the tracks.
All mail and baggage will have to be trans
ferred from one station to the other over
the Tenth street viaduct.
Iron fences, separating the depot platform
from the train tracks, will be a new feature
in Omaha. Gate tenders will permit no one
to enter the trains without a ticket.
A force considerably in excess of that
which has heretofore been engaged will be
employed at the new depot. Additional po-
licemen, passenger directors and gate-tend
ers will be required Five young men will
be on hand to assist in the carrying of bag
gage and otherwise complying with the
wishes and requests OF passengers. All the
employees about the depot will be hand
somely uniformed. The present officials will
probably be retained and Mr.. E. Haney will
preside over the new depot as station super
intendent.

J. e. Brittain New England passenger
agent of the Northwestern at Boston, is a
visitor in the city.
After thirty years of service as joint
agent at The Union Pacific depot for the
United States and Pacific Express COM
panies H. j. McKenna has resigned. +. A.
Brown, who has been in the local offices as
money clerk, is his successor.
The Burlington has a corps of workmen
employed at Lead, S. D., in preparing for
the erection of a new passenger station on
the Deadwood Central near the heart of the
city. The Deadwood Central is a narrow
guage line operating between Deadwood
and Lead. At the latter place the depot
is inconveniently located and is too small
to meet the demands of traffic.

and Hehir put his team ahead by

spoiled his good work by touching the
ball on a centre up, and Koran tied the
score by a pretty toss. The half ended
with the score tie, each side having
six points.
Lyceum went ahead in the third min
ute of play of the second half. Shee-
han and Hehir interloCked arms, not in
a loving embrace, and a double foul
was called. Koran threw goal and He
hir missed.
Sheehan deserted his Golors and sent
Father Mathew ahead by the unusual
play of scoring a goal for the opposing
team. It happened so quickly every
body was surprised. Koran hit the ball
on the centre up, hitting it to Holmes,
who was mid way between centre and
his own goal. Sheehan was nearer
goal. He yelled out for the ball and
Holmes passed it to him. Sheehan ran
step and then tossed it into his own
basket, making the score to Z in favor
of the Father Mathew team. Lyceum
retrieved the play in two minutes.
Holmes passed to Sheehan, and the lat
ter shot it out to Koran, who slipped
Wiseman and stood ready for a toss.

ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT
But Harvard'S Defense
Proves to Be Remark
ably Strong.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 13.-Some life
was put into the hitherto listless play
ing of the Harvard eleven today, by the
presence of DAILY, Boal and Burnett,
who are in much better condition ow-
ing to their long rest Campbell ran
through the signals, but let Ristine
take his place in the lineup, Great
attempts were made to put dash into
the plays, with some success. The in
reference and the general team play
must be perfected this week.
Today the only preliminary work was
the signal practice, which was followed
by one long half, lasting until dark
ness-about q minutes. Three touch
downs were scored against the second
eleven, one each by Kendall, Reid and
Ellis. Sawin kicked a goal from the
field. The second eleven gained six
yards on one play, but otherwise was
never able to make any impression on
the 'Varsity's defense. Fumbling was
again in evidence, and at critical times
Ellis dropped the ball on the seconds
two-yard line and was instantly taken
out for Reid. The latter was bothered
by his ankle, but yet made some good
gains through the line, scoring the Sec
ond touchdown and helping much in the
interference. No long runs were made,
however.
Twice Burnett missed goals from the
As and 35-yard lines. All the touch
downs were made by short plunges
through the line. OF the ends, Ris-
tine played remarkably WELL but Hal
lowell was not up to his usual form,
except in kicking. A large crowd of
coaches was out, among them Lewis,
Cranston, L /. Sullivan, the 'S7 half
back, R. d. Wrenn, ]. J. Hayes, Merri-
man, Mason, Edgar Wrightington, cap
tain in '97, B. Waters, Bouve, the '9S
guard, Haughton and Thatcher, "a
tackle.
In spite of the fact that the field was
spread with hay before and after the
practice, portions of the field were fro
zen and will require attention.

the box containing the diamonds. Mr.,

supposed customer both men had fled
and the jewels were gone. The police
have no clue save description by Mr..

LOOKS LIKE NO MATcH.o
FIaherty May Not Get His Try at Patsy
Sweeney.

Joe Flaherty has practically given up
hope of match with Patsy Sweeney
at New Haven Thanksgiving day. He
received yesterday letter from Walter
Jennings of New Haven, who appeared
at the boxing tournament that Flaherty
managed at Father Mathew hall few
weeks ago. Jennings letter explains
the reason why Flaherty has not heard
from the Now Haven men who con-
oeived a match between him and Swee-
ney and it shows that the condition of
affairs is practically the same as it was
in Worcester last winter. Four ap-
plications for boxing license are at
present before the licensing board In
New Haven, which has thrown the
board in quandry and may cause the
members to give no permit. Jennings
writes that if one Is secured, Flaherty
will have what chances there are, and
that is about the only hope Flaherty
has for a match.
