Masons, carpenters and decorators have‘ beeu busy carrying out the plans of ‘th: company‘s architects, with the resuls that Berlin toâ€"day can claim the Iumâ€"‘ or of having one of the finest examples of passenger depot architecture on the Grand Trunk system, and to nons does this fact afford more genuine satâ€" disfaction than to the popular local agent of the road, Mr. D. B. Dover. ®o complete has been the work oi ; extensicn, _ overhauling and be:;uli!y-l ing that the visitor v.é) has not Leea watching _ the progress of .tke wor.| would scearcely recognize in it a part| of the former building. i An addition has been ~made to the! east end for baggage room purposes,! whils at the west side there is a fine openâ€"air shelter provided by the exâ€", tension of the roof, sypported .on m.\.s-l mive arches of red pressed brick. To the east the architectural appearance of the building has been very . much improved by the erection of a neat tower, and the construction of a porâ€" tecoâ€"chere. _ This improvement necesâ€" sitated the removal of the oli platâ€"} iorms on this side, and is generally appreciated by those driving . to t.n1| from the depot, alfording, as it does,! shelter in all kinds of weather _ for j those entering or alighting from vyeâ€"} hicles. t While the exterior changes are most striking, scarcely a trace of the old interior remains. The rooff has been raised and the cviling finished _ in golden oak, and the space which was formerly ‘occupied as a ladies‘ and gents‘ waiting room now constitutes one _ commodious room about 30x80 feet in size. The floors are of beautâ€" iful inlaid tile, and the lower _ walls have been decorated with a dado 0 skirting of inlaid tile between five and six feet high, the balance being don> in wood fibre and tinted in Llue . and. gold. This, with the fne now ticket office casings and the other woodwork in antique oa‘s,; combine in emeating a viry Lne eZect. No detail of appointâ€" ment seems to haye . been forgotten, ladies‘ pri ate waiting room, gentleâ€" men‘s smo ing room, lavatories, etc., heing pro iled. The wcstibule and enâ€" trance to the carriage porch, on | the south side, is also a big improvement. The removal of the old jplank plat ‘orms is also on the programme, an~ these will be replaced by comoent on as soon as the work can be convenâ€" iently done. Neat incandesccnt bulos have been jlaced along the cornices of the depot, and these, with the fine boclovard lamps which â€" the company is about to put up along the platforn: will fernish splegdid illumination. Berlin has nom'\not only one of the finest passenger depots, but also i large modern freight depot, capabl of â€" accommodating about Awentyâ€"fiv cars for loading and unloading, enab ling â€" the company to make up car daily for all {mportant points for quick direct‘ shipment. Other convenionce: that have been provided for shipper: are a heavy shinting engine and larg crane for handling heavy goods. P new â€" 100,000 gallon clevated _ wat tank has just been completed, thi having been done at the suggestion. of the Berlin Water Commissioners, wh feared the interference with the pres sure in this locality should engines b taling water in time of fire. s All these improvements may be ta" en as an expression of appreciation c the part of the Grand Trun‘k Railya officials of the everâ€"increasing volum of business it is receiving at . this coint.

BUY3 A BOOKSTORE IN HAMILTON ALERTS DEFEAT THE BEAVERS acy. Both teams put up remarkably fine ball, the game being a surprise to the many on the bleachers who had not witnessed previous contests during the season. ‘aat GUIMp iNE SEZBOI, The Alerts went on the 1Ii;m<fi1 with five straight victories to their credit and had but to win this game to put them in on an even running with the Beavers for the Spalding pennant. The Beavers, realizing the importance of the game, brought with them the great and only Lemlein, It: was the general opinion that the game would be very close, but at no period of the play did the Beavers look dangerous. The game was replete with brilliant fielding, timely batting and daring base running. The Beavers were shut out until the eighth inning, when they scored two on safe hits. Even the assistance of the Hanover Band, did rot net them any runs. The Alerts outâ€"felded the Beavers, and their well stolen bases throughâ€" out the game assisted greatly i in running up the score. They were very effective at the bat, hitting Lamlein hard and often and at the right time. McGinnis pttched a splendid game and was given excellent supâ€" port by every member of the team. Hlis coolness and self control were admirable. Lamlein was a sort of disappointâ€" ment}ip the crowd. He was not as effective as usual and was given not the best of support in the field. Reid behind the bat was not able so hold him when he got down to some hard pitching. The features of the game were Weaver‘s oneâ€"handed catch at first, Miller‘s splendid work at third, and at the bat, the sure throws of Mickus to secend bag, Plomski‘s work at first, and the daring base renningâ€"of the Alerts, The Beavers were first to bat, a*d were out. in short ord=r. There was nothing doing for them until the 8th inn ‘ngs, when Raymo‘s i=v> to right ficld scored two runs. / _ The Alerts begen the scoring in the: first, when Englert Chit safe, ard scored on Plumski‘s fiy to left.
