MERCHANTS LIKE
HILL TUNNEL
ANxI0USLY AWAIT PROPOSED
IMPROVEMENT
Third Ward Residents Have Renewed
Hope Since Prospects for Un-
foreground AreaWay Seem
Brighter

The proposed change in the route of
the Hollywood line of the Los Angeles
Pacific Railway company, as was out
lined exclusively in yesterdays Her
aid, is meeting with the general APP
prevail of the merchants within the vi
cinity of Hill street and of the Los
Angeles-Pacific depot on Fourth street,
and with the approval of the passen-
gers who pass daily over the line.
The waiting and slow running in the
business district on account of the con-
gestion of cars on Spring and Main
streets during the rush hours is wear
ing upon the nerves of the tired man
who is anxious to get home as quickly
as possible after a hard days work
He does not mind the ride when the
car is in motion, but dislikes to have
to wait while other cars pass or to
slowly move down the street. He
would be one of the first to appreciate
the new route and will welcome the
time when he can avoid the tedious de-
tour by the Plaza.
Welcome Tunnel
Residents of the Third ward say
that they will be glad of any assist
ance that they may gain from the rail-
way company in Tightening the ex-
pense of building a tunnel which had
long been needed and is now needed all
the more on account of the rapid
growth of the business district.
Several stated yesterday that they
were in favor of giving the railway
company the necessary franchise to
allow it to run it's tracks directly north
on Hill street to Sunset boulevard and
that it believed that the company
would meet with little opposition in
securing such a franchise.
The new route would relieve the mo-
tormen and conductors on the Holly
wood line of much trouble in the way
of the worst hill in the city of Los
Angeles. When it rains, the hill on
Sunset boulevard west of San Fer
nando street becomes almost as Slip
perry as so much ice instead of dirt.
Wagons Bring Mud
The Transfers drive with the wheels
| of their wagons within the car tracks
and after they have passed they leave
thick coating of very slick mud on
| the rails.
Under these circumstances it is al
most impossible for the brakes to hold
a car that has gained a little Roadway,

ALLEGED BIGAMIST CAUGHT
y. F. Won Heemer, Wanted in Stock
ton, Is Arrested in
Seattle

STOCKTON, Feb. 15.-Sheriff sibley
of this county received a telegram
from Seattle this afternoon announcing
the arrest of j. f. Won Beemer, who
is wanted in this city for bigamy. The
complaint was sworn to by Mrs. Glenn
entine Won Beemer on the 9TH of this
month. On the 9th of last June Won
Beemer came to Stockton from Oak
land with Mary Emma Free, also Of
Oakland, and married her here on that
day.
Won Beemer left for Vancouver when
he learned that he was to be prosecuted
for bigamy. In order to avoid extra
dltlon proceedings he was trapped
into coming to Seattle and his arrest
followed.

for the wheels slide on the slick rails
like runners upon ice.
Several months ago motorman lost
control of his car on this hill and it
gained such Roadway before the bot
tom was reached that, in rounding the
curve on San Fernando street, 1t rolled
over and injured sixteen people.
The employees of the company on this
run are pleased with the prospects of
a change in the route. In speaking
about the new route motorman was
heard to remark yesterday:
"Our run wouldn't be half bad one
if we didn't have that nasty hill in
rainy weather"

1 Systematic arrangements for the ac-1
commod alton of visitors during the
saengerfest in st. Paul will be made
by the directors Of the fest. A com
mittee will get the names, addresses,
prices and other information regard
ing all available rooms n the city and
will have these classified and cata-
logued. a bureau will be maintained
in the union depot where strangers
can be directed to just the kind Of ac-
commo dations they want. A map of

um and other places that will be

130 vessels, carrying 1900 cannon and
10000 men, while the English navy
consisted Of but fifty vessels no bigger
than yachts and thirty of the queens

The Grand Army Of the Republic.
Day by day their ranks are thinning, one
by one they disappear.
And at each succeeding roll call, fewer
voices answer: .tHere!'z $s#s
Still their regiments are marching many
march with noiseless tread,
And no bugles sound assembly in the
bivouac of the dead. s#
Hats are reverently lifted to the heroes
lying here;
Lift them to the living heroes-hail them
all with cheer on cheer.
Not for long will they be with us; soon
each regiment will be
Tented here beneath the blossoms Of the
land it helped to free.
But to-day the drums are muffed and the
flag at half-mast waves,
Keeping green dead heroes memories as
the grass above their graves.
Still another weary winter shrouded in the
snow they lay;
Now we bring them crowns and garlands
of the loveliest blooms of May.
Let them rest in honored slumber, while
their praise, from shore to shore,
Eighty millions throats are swelling-We
are free forevermore!
