Cnwelcone Mrs. Hatch and showed the actress
10 her admirers IN phase Of her in which she
has scarcely a rival now before the public. Al
though the incident which this play relates is d.

AN INVENTOR AND A RAILROAD.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir; IN this country long railroad cars supported
on four or six wheel trucks in universal
The only connection between each truck and its
superintendent is through the medium OF
strong kingbot that descends from its connection
with the bottom framework of each car into a re-
ception box located nearly as possible in the
centre Of motion OF each truck. As II Is impossible
10 locate that kingbolt reception in the exact
mathematical centre OF each truck. IL necessarily
follows that one side OF each truck is ever and
always inclined to advance little faster than its
opposite side. thereby producing rapid. jerking
movements OF the trucks and causing "A grinding
and wearing friction between the hanges of the
truck wheels and the inner sides Of their support

car trucks make disagreeable metallic noise
