The Wisconsin Centrals announcement
yesterday that it would base all excur-
sion tariffs on the SO rate to Chicago full
fills the prediction that the rate is per-
manent and that it would affect the one
fare plus-$2 rate and also the fare-and-
a-third rates. Clergymen on their half
fare permits now pay 81 to Chicago.
That the 2-cent-a-mile rate will extend
to other than Western association terri
tory is feared by the railroad men. Yes
terday one of, them said:
Steps have already been taken toward
meeting the new. rate via the Missouri
river gateway, and after this step is
taken 1T will not be long before the pres
sure for 2-cent-a-mile rate will become
so great that it will spread to all the pas
senger business in the northwest The
result would sbe an enormous reduction
in the revenue from passenger business,
and it is not likely that much new bust
ness will be created-not enough to make
good the reduction in revenue

A Notable structure.

The annual engineering number of
the Railway Age, contains very in
teresting and instructive account of
the construction of the new Rock ISL
and passenger depot in Chicago.
In many respects the building is
one of the most remarkable struc-
lures of recent years and the rapidity
with which it is being erected is
graphically shown, in connection with
the article, by series of photographs
taken at intervals of from 10 to 80
days.
In the photographs, the building is
seen rising like fiourishing plant
one story, then three, four, seven,
eleven, and finally the top cornice.
The building is ~ stories high and
has a frontage on Van Buren, street
of 215 feet. The construction direct
ly pertaining to the station extends
south from Van Buren, street 1,433
| feet. The train shed is $50 feet long
and 215 feet in width. The roof is
supported by 10 steel trusses. The
center is IS feet above the track level.
The glass area in roof, sides and ends
exceeds $4,000 square feet.
The tracks enter the station at an
elevation of Is feet above the side
walk.
There viii be $500 electric lights in
the main building and los arc lamps
in the train shed.
| There are II tracks; 1900 trains a
day can be moved in and out of the
station.
| The modern and economical meth
DDS used in the construction are illus
trated by the fact that one of the
first acts of the contractors was to
set up in the old train shed 4 stone
crusher, and as fast as the stone was
taken from the walls of the old build
ing it was put through the ocrusheT
to be used in foundations for the new
building. ~
An indication of the difference in
size of the two buildings is given by
the fact that the stone from the old
building was not sufficient for the
able additional stone had to be pur-
chased.
Trains ceased running into the old
depot Dec. %, 1901. and it is expected
the new depot will be occupied May
1. This gives 10 months as the time
occupied in demOlishing the old build
ing, putting in new foundation anc
erecting and finishing the new build
ing.
The total area of depot, train shet
and power house is 197.4O1 square
feet. or little over AZ acres.
The new building is on the site OF
the old station and is the only pas
senger depot in Chicago located OF
the elevated loop, over which train.
of all elevated lines pass.
The first and second floors are de
voted to waiting rooms. ticket office
etc. and the office above to genera
offices of the railways using the de

war on Unclean Restaurants.

The board of health of Indianapo-
lis has started war on the unclean
restaurants. Despite the limited means
at their disposal, the sanitary officers
intend to make thorough inspection.
Two days are given offending pro-
prietors to clean up their Kitchens
and then, if conditions are not RENE
died, arrests will follow. The inspec-
tor has found many cases where
kitchens and ice chests were Uttered
with dirt. In milk cans were found
bits of deeaying matter due to care
lessness on the part of servants.
The unsanitary condition of many
of the restaurants of London, Eng
lad, has aroused the press, and as a
result it is probable that supervision
will be instituted to ensure the pro-
per cooking and preparing of food for
the public.
1t is reform that should extend to
cities of all sizes and classes through
out the land.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The school met in general assem-
bly, yesterday afternoon. Principal
Brown brought up the the matter of
identifying the school grounds. The
board has at different times appro-
priated money for this purpose, but
there is still room for great improve
ment, as the erection of the new
building destroyed several fine trees
and killed out all of the lawn. Mr.
Brown requested that the presidents
of the different classes appoint two
members to act on a committee for
the purpose of raising fund and car
rying out some line of improvement.
The chairman of the committee will
be from the senior class.
Mr.. Brown requested those who de-
sired to enter the declamatory and
oratorical contests to be held at
Galesburg in connection with the
track and field meet to hand in their
names at once. The contests will be
given in the largest auditorium of
Galesburg, and, judging by former
years, the audience will include sew
eraI thousand persons. 1t is hoped
that a preliminary contest may be
held here about week before the
IGalesburg contest, May o.
Quite number more boys were out
for track practice yesterday. Man

more pairs of running shoes.
The debating team is working hard
on the argument for the debate with
Davenport, to be held April II in the
local high school building. The team
consists of Hale Graham, Oscar FRA
ger and Guy Munger.
There will be two games of basket
ball at the gymnasium this evening.
The first will be a game between the
Davenport and Rock Island girls
teams. This will be followed up by a
game between the high school boys
and the team of the local Y. NJ. c. A.
These will be the last games the high
school teams will play this year.

Damage.

Salt Lake, Feb. 16.-The heavy fall
of snow during the past week and a
continuance of zero weather through
out this section have already cost the
stock and sheepmen Of northern Utah,
southern Idaho and western Wyoming
thousands of dollars in the loss of
stock. If the weather does not soon
moderate sufficiently to permit the
snow in the valleys and foothills to
melt, men c~onversant with existing
conditions in the affected territory
say, the losses will be enormous To-
day the mercury Rugged the zero
mark, and the predictions are for
continued cold. Where it is possible
sheep and stockmen are hauling feed
to their starving herds, but in most
instances this cannot be done.
Word was received in this city to-
day that cattlemen in the Shoshone
district of Idaho, being unable to feed
their isolated herds, and in order to
prevent a total loss, have been com
PEELED to shoot their stock, the car
casses being stripped of the hide,
which will be preserved and sold for
leather in the spring. To what extent
this practice is being INDUCED in is
not known.
