USING THE NEW DEPOT SHEDS.
st. Paul Union Station Now Has AM
pie Terminal Facilities.

Trains have begun to run under the
new sheds at the union depot and the
station now furnishes thirteen tracks
for the use of the various roads enter
Ing the city. In a short time the Min
neapolis & st. Louis road will begin
to run its trains in, as will the Rock
Island on finishing the strip of track
which will complete the entrance into
the city.
st. Paul now has as good terminal
facilities as any city in the West. The
uackage and shed room is as great as
that of the Minneapolis union depot
and Milwaukee station combined, and
everything is strictly modern.
Electric lights have been hung in the
new sheds, the platforms laid and the
five new tracks are all in good shape.
1t is interesting to note the improve
ment that has been made in archi-
tectural iron work, even since the old
sheds were put up, which is not so
very long ago.
In the old sheds the roof is support
ed by complication of trestles that is
missing in the new structure, which is
simpler and palmer, and looks and is
just as substantial. There is also more
glass in the roof of the addition, and.
taken altogether, the complete shed,
which is 115 feet wide at the widest
point, makes a fine modern terminal
station.

Sunday the time of a number Of
Great Northern trains will b. changed,
and on the same date the new daily
service between the Twin Cities and
Sioux City and intermediate points will
be put into effect.
This new service will give the people
of the towns touched a chance to
leave their homes in the morning,
spend a day in st. Paul and return the
same night. The new train will leave
st. Paul at 1880 p. m. and Minneapolis
at sos p. m. daily. The incoming train
will arrive at Minneapolis at 7:1O a. m.
and st. Paul at 7:45 a. m. daily.
New Trains Well Equipped.
The new trains will be equipped with
palace sleeping cars, vestibuled
coaches, lighted with acetylene gas, and
will be modern and up to date in every
respect 1t will be of great advantage
to the residents of the towns which
the new service touches as we'll as to
the merchants of St. Paul, as 1t is ex-
pected that the travel will be heavy.
Many Other Changes.
Other changes are as follows:
Train No. 1 leaves st. Paul for Sank
Center, ETC., at a. M, instead of 8:15
as formerly.
Train No. 2 arrives in ST. Paul at 6
p. m, instead of $50 p. m.

at Ga p. m, instead of sos p. m.
These changes are made with a view
Of lettering the service and furnishing
better accommodations for the travel
ing public. The passenger business so
far this year has been very eavy and
the roads are making every effort to
handle the volume of the business in a
manner satisfactory to themselves and
to the travellers.
