Next Monday night Caroline Miskel-
HOyt Will appear at the Academy of
Music in "A Contented Woman" which
was written for her by her husband,
Charles Hoyt, who has given the stage
as great a number of successes as any
living playwright. The scene of the
play is laid in Denver and it deals with
the woman's suffrage question. 1t is
a play as full of politics, fun and good
rock bottom, hard. common sense as
an egg is of meat, and yet it is wholly
devoid of anything like partisanship
There is not a speech, nor a witticism
in it that will give offense to the thin
nest skinned member of any party.
What true woman, in her heart Of
hearts, will not applaud this sentiment,
the tag of the play, spoken by Mrs
HOyt: Ladies: We trust our hus-
bands with our lives, our honor our
children and our fortunes. Why, then,
can we not safely trust them to vo.e
for u.s."

steel Freight Cars Possible.

As steel bridges naturally follow steel
rails, steel cars naturally follow steel
bridges. incidentally steel elevators
have turn. 1t looks as though in rail
roading the days OF woods usefulness
were numbered. simultaneously with
the announcement that the Great North
ern will build steel elevator at Buffalo
with a capacity of about 3 200 900 bushels
comes another that a certain Eastern
railroad has decided to build POO steel
cars. An advocate of steel cars in the
Railroad Gazette, the most conservative
of all railroad journals, especially in
matters pertaining to the transportation
department, estimates that 5000 pounds
in dead weight, would be saved by each
steel car, as compared with a wooden
one, while the cost Of constructing it will
he the same. One thousand cars would
thus save 100000 pounds in haulage,
or $500 net tons. Computing the cost
of hauling one ton Of dead weight per
annum at $40, this equipment would save
$25, 900 per annum. If the l, $50 900 in
the United States were all steel cars the
estimated saving would be s., 1000.
What would be saved by reduced wear
and tear, greater durability and increased
safety is not included in this estimate
