The Doom of the Car-Stove.

Steam heat for railway cars have evil
IDENTIFY come to stay. The experiments
which have been made in the last two
or three years have proved the entire
feasibility fthis method of displacing
the destructive car-stOVe. 1t has been
shown that the engine of a long train
can supply sufficient steam to heat the
cars without interfering with its trac-
ton power; that the temperature can
be regulated satisfactorily-that is. to
everything except few cranks who
always find public conveyance too
hot or too cold and that the steam
has passed beyond the sphere of exper-
lment into that of demonstration.
Proof OF this if further proof were
needed, is supplied by the fact that
one Important company, in its desire
to keep abreast with the times and
give its passengers the best there is to
be had, has voluntarily adopted a svs-
tenn OF steam-heating. We say vOlun-
tarily, in order to mark the distinction
between this company and those
which have been compelled by law
as IN this State-to abolish stoves and
other heaters which are practically as
dangerous as stoves themselves. There
could be no more important testimony
in favor of the new system than that
furnished by the action ofthe company
referred to.
The statistics prepared in reference
to the use of steam in passenger cars
are full of significance and promise.
About One-fourth of the entire passen-
ger rolling-stock in the country, in
Guiding baggage and sleeping cars
1881 cars in all-is now equipped for
steam heat. On 8,465 miles of railway
all the passenger trains last winter
were heated without stoves. and COM
panies controlling S2,97S miles of rail-
way have at least begun to equip their
cars with the new system. The re-
ports of eighty-one companies "show
that steam-heating has been, on the
whole, very successful, and that many
difficulties feared when the system was
first introduced have not proved SER
ious in practice" All this is highly
encouraging. 1t shows that New York
made no mistake when, three wears
ago, it enacted a law requiring the
the heating of cars by steam on all
railroads more than fifty miles IN
length. That law was a direct effect
of the shocking accident near White
River junction, Vt, in February, 1887.
Nothing else gave so great impulse in
the direction of abOlishing the car
stove as the roasting to death of a
number of passengers on that dreadful
night. That disaster wrote the doom
of the car stove, which is going rapidly
and will soon be only a relic.-NeaO

Chicago's Benevolence.

1t is claimed for Chicago that, in pro-

only two other cities in the
country as well supplied with Sunday
schools, and, finally, that it's Newberrv
Free Library starts with a fund of
$3,OOOrOOO, the largest ever given a
free library. Besides this library the
late Mr.. Crerar left more than $1,000.
600 for another, and, in addition, the
City Library has an income of nearly
100000 from taxation. The city ap-
apprOpriates one-third of its revenue
to the public schools, and during the
past year its citizens raised S475. 600
for the Chicago University and $780,
600 for the Lake Forest University.
The McCormicks have given nearly
$l,OOO,OOO for theological education.
and not long ago Mr.. Moody easily
raised $780, 900 in Chicago for his train,
ing school. In view of all this it
might possibly be advisable for the
humorists to stop manufacturing squibs
about Chicago's pork and lard. She is
city of which all Americans, New
Workers included, can be justly proud.
