DOUBLE-DEcKED CARS.

Some time ago the Rock Island built
a number of stock ears with movable
intermediate decks, believing the pos
sibility of using the same cars both as
single or as double deck cars to be a
decided advantage. Experience with
these cars has confirmed the belief of
the Rock Island officials and as a re-
suit they are now building more Of
them, of 6 o 1000 pounds capacity, at the
c~ompany's shops. Arranged in this
way the ears are available for double
deck loads of hogs or sheep, and with
the intermediate deck hoisted to max

WYOMING WOMEN
EMINENT FRENCH WRITER DIS
CUSSES THE PROGRESS OF
WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
Mrs. Eugenia Cleophas, Vice President
CT the Woman's National Press AS
sociation Writes Concerning Adj
mission of Miss Grace Raymond
Hebard to the Bar.

In a lengthy article published in the
wyoming Press, at Evanston, COM
menting on the admission of Miss
Grace Raymond Hebard to the bar,
Mrs. Eugenia Cleophas. vice president
of the Woman's National Press associ-
alton, pays a beautiful tribute to the
accomplished secretary Of the Uni
versity of Wyoming and then continues
as follows:
My JOY at seeing a woman accepted
as a lawyer arises not solely from my
standpoint as a friend but as a French
woman. 1t is a new proof of the pro-
gress Of America beyond other nations.
| love America; / am proud OF the
country of my adoption; l rejoice every
time something happens which places
her at the head and in the first rank
among nations. You know that 1 am
a leader in French papers for the eman-
cipation of women: l always show
our young state as an example, for
her women can be justly proud of her
privilege to enjoy her rights and the
advantages of her education and intel
ligence.
When Miss Grace Raymond Hebard
was admitted to the bar it was Just a
year after France was excited about a
great change that all intelligent women
were expecting for their welfare. The
eyes of France were fixed upon Ma
demoisellle Chauvine. She was as Miss
Hebard, a woman of rare accomplish
ments; she presented herself at the
bar-but was refused admission. Why?
Only because she was a woman France
is conservative in regard to the rights
Of women and cannot appreciate the
fact that equal intelligence deserves
| equal treatment. When Mile. Chauvin'
presented herself before the magis-
| trates the laws OF 1912 were invoked,
which excluded women from the prac-
tice Of law regardless for their apti-
tude or knowledge. Perhaps 1t was
right from a judicial point of view, but
certainly not from one of common
sense.
In this era of progress France ought
to understand that 1t is time that
there no longer be any separation or
limit between man and woman in mat
tiers of intellectual and material adj
vancement. How dearly and sincerely
l wish the magistrates OF France were
as broad minded as Hon. Judge Bramel,
then French women would realize that
at last the real hour CT woman has
struck. l read with admiration and
deep appreciation his congratulations
to my friend; my feelings were mixed
with regret that France has no such
| high minded judge as protector OF the
rights Of m How beautiful and
wise hds words: Equality makes no
distinction as to sex" l hope the hon
orable Judge will pardon the liberty l
am taking in making his name known
abroad; at the same time l send this
letter to the Wyoming Press I send ahso
articles to leading papers in France in
which I am a popular and favortte writ
er, and in a short time our sisters In
France will be w~orshiping the name OF
the man who is intelligent enough to
admit that woman can be the equal Of

feeling of relief over the work of get
ting trains through as we'll as they
have been enabled to do during the
past two days. Down in Colorado
the trains have been tied up for days
and days and not only the passengers
on the blockade have been threatened
with starvation but also the people liv-
ing on the line of the railroad have
been similarity threatened, and men
have had to carry supplies in to the re-

are all covered up and the new snow
fence is put on top of the snow drift
and raised about three feet above the
snow. The wind drifts the snow up
two OF three feet and the fence Is rails

PROBABLY WORK OF GHoULs.
Money and V~aluables Disappear from
the Body of James Parry.

Every effort is being made to find
the money and the valuables which
disappeared from the body OF James
Parry, the victim Of the Weed wreck.
Detective O'Brien of the Union Pacific
has been detailed on the case, and says
he will never stop until he either finds
the property or the gouls.
The man who met death in the wreck
carried two grips. One of these, con-
tanning writing material and property
of the Baum Iron company of Denver.
has been recovered. but the other,
which contained wearing apparel and
personal property has disappeared.
With it a wallet which Parry was
known to have in his inside vest
pocket prior to the accident, and which
contained $50 in money and two rail-
road mileage books, has also disap-
peared.
Just who could have committed such
a crime as robbing the dead is not
known, but 1t Is hoped that the officers
will be successful in solving the mys-
terry and bringing the guilty persons to
justice.-Cheyenne Tribune.

AVOID ALUM BAKING POWDERS
Their Use is Dangerous to Health.

The condemnation CT alum as an I'M
wholesome ingredient in bakink pow
ders by the government authorities as
evil as by the Iowa and Minnesota
State Boards of Health and physicians
generally, has not deferred manufac-
turers of such powders from foisting
them on the public. Following is a
partial list of the condemned alum
powders found in the stores of this
section:
Calumet. X. C.
Home. Loyal.
1t is safe to reject all brands sold
with a prize. All powders sold at
twenty-five cents or less a pound are
sure to be made of alum. DR.. Wiley,
the Government Chemist, in his official
examination of baking powders at the
Worlds Fair. threw out all alum
powders CHASING them as unfit for
human food.
But the Worlds Fair could approve
as well as condemn. After the most
elaborate tests, 1t bestowed the high
est award for purity, leavening power,
keeping qualities and general excel
lency on DR.. Prices Cream Baking

AUSTIN, Tex, Oct. "a telegram re-

Sonora, Mexico, says:
THE Mexican government is making
strenuous efforts to get all its TO. ces
in the field at once ana bring the YaQut
Indian war to a speedy terminaI,n. If
they do not do so before next April,
when the three months rainy season sets
in, it means that the war will last all
through next summer, which the MeXi-
can government wants to preVe ut If pos
sible. For that reason they will push
the matter as much as possible at yres-
ent Today Jose Lopez Gonzales, the
chief of construction of the Federal tele-
graph lines in the state of Sonora, who
has been in the mountains for three
weeks past trying to repair some 0
miles of telegraph wires laid waste by
the Indians, returned, accompanied b.
his escort of cavalry and a force of
linemen. He reports two engagements
with the Indians, the first occurring
about two weeks ago, with no casu2lt1 S,
and only brief running fight. The Sec
ond one occurred last Monday and re-
suited III three soldiers being killed ard
one or two injured. He Vys his men
replaced many miles of broken wire,
but to little purpose, as the sdi3ns fol-
lowed them at a safe distance and tore
down the wires as rapidly as they were
repaired. The Indians seem to b n
excellent fighting trim and aprarln ly
are growing holder every day."

Mayor Gray, however, took a slightly
different position, and started the plan
of raising fund for the transportation
of the Minneapolis companies. St. Paul
responded warmly and so did the other
cities represented. This grated harshly
on Chairman Phelps of the committee
which had been so lethargic. Besides, it
had been a proposal dear to his heart
that the state should pay for the trans
pcrtation of the regiment, and the
wealthy men should sign notes for the
money required, after securing pledges
that the legislature would reimburse
them or take up the notes.
But the fund was raised and President
Phelps proceeded to appoint few COM
mittees to arrange for the reception of
the loops. He placed his acquaintance
in good positions and then made the may

tees but chairman of none.

OLD RAILROAD MAN GONE.
George e. Huntington Had Spent a
Life at the Work.

George E. Huntington, a we'll known
railroad man, died at his late residence,
271S Pillsbury avenue, Sunday evening.
Mr.. Huntington was for many years en-
ployed in the railway service in Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota and for the past ten
years in the employ of the 800" in the
capacity of conductor, which position he
occupied up to the time of his death.
His railroad career dates back as far
as 1856, when he was an engineer on the
Marietta & Cincinnati railway in Ohio.
In the fall of 1857 he came to Wisconsin
and for several years was an engineer
on the old La Crosse & Milwaukee road,
now part of the Milwaukee system.
He and c. w. Case, formerly ASST tant
general superintendent of that road and
later general manager of the Great
Northern, hauled passenger trains be-
tween La Crosse and Milwaukee, and,
it is claimed, made as god time over
the old chair rail back in the flfties as
is made in these days of modern an
provements in railroad equipments.
Mr.. Huntington had many friends in
and out of the raj read service. He
leaves to mourn his loss a family con-
sisting OF his wife, three sons ard four
daughters. The sons have each fol ow
ed their father in selecting the railway
service as a vocation. Fred c.. is chief
clerk in the Office of Supt. Law, Of the
Northern Pacific; George r. is superin-
tendent of the Eastern diVisi n of the
500 line, and Harry E. is chief olark
in the passenger partment of the same
road.
The funeral services will be held from
interment to take place at Lakewood

FIXING THE TAX LEVY.
Board Finishes Its Work, but the
Council Has Il Say.

Council Has Say.
After a weary and arduous siege of
days spent in porting over figures and
estimates that were pruned down and
sealed over and over again only to be
readjusted the board OF tax levy finally
got to the, end of the string late yester-
day afternoon, and so far as the mem
bers are concerned marked their labors
with the word fms. A special meeting
of the council will be held Friday night
to fix the city's proportion of the levy,
which can be scaled and while the sew
eral items may be scaled down from the
amounts fixed by the board they cannot
exceed the maximum amount recommend
ed. The law requires that the list must
be in the hands of the county auditor
by Oct. 10, and as the regular meeting
of the council is later than this it be-
comes necessary to hold a special ses-
sion.
The total levy as fixed by the board
for next year is twenty-five and ten one
hundredths mills, as compared with TWEEN
ty-three mills in 1898, there being an in
crease of fiVe-tenths mills over last year.
This increase is due to special tax of
One-half mill for certificate of indebted
ness of the new city hall; nine tenths of
a mill for the special school levy and
tw0~tenths of a mill extra for a crema-
tory. Then there is an addition of 10000
to be raised to defray the election ex-
pcpses for next year.
The ward funds are fixed at about the
same as last year, there being very lit
tie change.
Among the important matters of local
concern decided upon yesterday was the
setting aside of the tax for the crematory
as above noted, the sum to be realized
being $21G00, or about one-third of what
was asked for The items of salaries
and fees We're cut from 1885, COO to $3.50 900;
fire department from $4,000 to 1923, 900,
ana the police department estimate was
scaled from 600 to $214,C0O, and so on
all along the line.
