Railroad ali Plans q Build Many

DIRECTORS VOTE TO
EXPEND SIG, 900. 900
Big Slice Of Appropriation to = Used
in Erecting Finest r Passenger Station
in the State--- means Much fol
this City.

For the purpose sof J !, building
yards for storing freight cars. also
to erect a20-stall round house,
the Minneapolis. and St. Louis
railroad, this week secured an OPP
tion on large tract Of land just
west of its bridge across the Sioux
river. To make the proposed i'm
provements and also to join with
the Rock Island in building a mag
nificent passenger station, the di-
rectors of the road at a meeting in
Chicago voted an appropriation of
$165, 900.
Last fall the road found its fa.
ciiities in this city woefully mad
equate to take care of ats business.
Its engines were compelled to
stand outside, while its sidings
were cong gested until it was next
to impossible to handle the busi-
ness. The road is now taking
steps to do away with a like con-
dition next fall. ss#
The officials plan to build on the
tract on which the road now has
/. the option, about twenty miles Of
sidings, capable Of storing over
8, 900 freight cars. This will make
a net work of tracks along the
banks Of the Sioux in the north
west part Of the city.
Watertown is also very muet
interested in the ouncement
that a part Of this big sum viii
go toward the construction of the
long awaited passenger station.
1t is understood that the plans
for the building have been com.
pleted. and have been submitted
to the Rock Island. The station
will include division Offices for al
officers now housed in the Cannon
block on Oak street south.

Cannot Give Aggrieved Man Permis-
sion 10 Shoot Out Of Season. He
Suggests Use Of Dogs TO Drive the
Hungry Birds from Field.


Whether it is bettersto save the
chickens and let twenty acres OF
Iunhusked corn disappear, or wheth.
er it would be wise TO allow q
farmer to slay the birds and save
his cereal, is a question put up
to State Game Warden W. r. Ban
croft this week by n. 2. Hanson
of Union county Mr. Bancroft
has not yet made q decision,
and fails to see how he can take
any hand in the matter under the
law S58f }s 4 I
Mr.. Hanson complained to the
county game warden saying that
he has twenty acres of corn still
on the stalk which he has been
unable to husk because Of the
deep snow. BY actual count, Z
writes the farmer, there are al
least 1000 prairie chickens making
my field their winter home, ane
the corn is fast disappearing. By
spring there will not be q kernel
left unless can find way 70 dt
away with this nuisance.
Being advised to use dogs ane
shoot over the flock, thus soaring
| it away, Mr.. Hanson replied thai
Ehes had tried both exp~d dients. ane
that the birds refused to leave
their cozy quarters and bountifui
Iarder. Inhis opinion. he said
the only method was to kill off ths
birds.
4 There is no provision in The
state game laws authorizing thu
/ wardens to give ne farmer per.
mission to kill the birds; in fact
should he proceed to kill them out
lof season, the officers would fee
bound to bring a prosecution. Mr.
