Another thing which should not be | overlooked is the importance of making Seattle a distributing center for government troops and supplies, and « preferable naval base for the ships of Uncle Sam's navy. The Port Orchard dry dock can be trans- formed into a sufficiently capacious establishment to accommodate sev- eral warships at the same time, and by the addition of some machinery, can be put into shape to do any and all kinds of repair work. The onl) thing lacking there is a. plentiful supply of fresh water, and this can probably be found near at hand and piped to the dry dock. Seattle could afford to undertake the search for this fresh water, and thus re- move one of the principal objections which government officers have of- fered to the Port Orchard location. Then @ vigorous presentation of the oase to congress would probably re- eult in ample appropriations for en- Jarging and fully equipping the dry- dock with all necessary appurten- ances. Again, turning to the Magnolia Biuff government camp grounds, it fe highly desirable that the city should make @ first-class boulevard out of the present impassable trail, so that the movement of troops and supplies between this city and the camp can be easily effected. The government will be slow to bring troops to Seattle until this work i# done, and well done, by the city. Finelly, let the fact be kept proms Jnently in mind that municipal rest. fulness in this competitive age in not to be tolerated even for an instant. Alertness, aggressiveness, and an ever-present determination to win against all comers, are characteris- tles which mark the successful city in this growing country. Seattle has manifested these traits from the @ariiest days of her history, and haw fought a hard and successful battie for pre-eminent prestige. But the Ume han not arrived to eeang offorts The fight for Pacific coant fupremacy must follow the successful fight for The new First Baptist temple of Columbus, ©., which was dedicated taet Sunday, is one of the unique edt- fices In the west. In style it is a modified form of Goethe, without cupola, dome or steeple, Though it bas beautifully wrought stained glans Gothic windows and arches, many Romanesque features are used in the minor parts, especially in the im« terior decorations, where the ar- rangement of the building is most striking. Instead of entering the house of worship through a email vestibule, the visitor steps through the gor- geously carved Gothic portal into a long corridor, oa either side of which are offices, lecture rooms, nursery, parlors and similar rooms accessory to modern churches. The corridor tw wainscoted in white marble and has the appearance of 4 theater lobby. At either side, near the end of the lobby, benutiful carved staircases lead to the balcony above. ‘The end of the lobby leads directly into the main auditorium exactly as the lobby of a theater, From the wide aisle whieh runs around the rear of the room under the cireular balcony a good view ix bad of the commodious stage which the Baptist minister is to use for his pulpit, and where are located the gteat organ and the seate for the chotr, The proscenium arch is etabora! ly decorated amd lacks only the 4: curtain and the flies to carry out the stage effect. On either side of the stage pulpit are a series of boxes de- signed to be used for the deacons of the church Instead of the traditional “amen corners.” The pitched floor, [with its circular stairs, the circular | balcony, the boxes and the stage, | with their rich ornamentation and hen brilliant frescoing, give the beholder the impression of being in a pretty Nttle theater rather than tn a church. A tour of the bullding will disclose every modern convenience, including electric lights, water plumbing, a room for bicycles, cloak rooma, lib- rary, Bunday-echool room, kitchen and lavatories. — Philadelphia In. . | quirer. LOOKING FOR A P. 0. SITE Chief Inspector Geo. D. Lynn and Assistant Inspector Clement, of the postoffice department, are busy ex- jamining and considering sites for the proposed new postoffice. Although bids will be received until the sth inst., quite a number have already been submitted. They extend over an area from Cherry street to Union street, and from the water front to Fifth avenue. Three of these sites are being se- riously considered. It is understood that Herman Chapin, owner of the present postoffice buildings, has made @ proposition, offering to build an- other story on the present structure and arrange the interior to conform to the required specifications. A somewhat similar offer has been made by the owners of the property, in which the Oberon Music hall is now located. They propose to add a second story to the building, which will constitute the main floor of the postoffice, and arrange the baseement for the handling and distribution of the matis. The third tender submitted is for the erection of a building on the lot located at the southwest corner of Second avenue and Madison street.
