THE ALL-sTEEL COACH
Slowly But Surely Coming Into
General Use.


Slowly but surely the all-steel pas
senger car is coming into general use
on American railroads. 1t is now
eighteen years since 1t first made it's
appearance, and in that time it has
undergone considerable modification
and Is a much superior piece of
equipment today. 1t steadily has
grown in favor. until now three of
the largest systems in the country
have committed themselves to its
sole use. These are the Pennsylvania,
the New York Central and the Harri-
man systems.
Since the car first began making a
record for itself the returns go to es-
tablish the fact that large per-
centage of the accidents which occur
each year might be avoided wholly. or
at least have their disastrous results
much reduced by having the cars
constructed of material strong
enough to Withstand. the shock of
collision.
There are now 1928 all-steeI cars
in use in the country. Fresh orders
being given to the construction COM
panies largely. If not exclusively. are
for this type of car, and it is predicted
that inside of the next ten years or
ders for any other kind will cease en-
tirely.

FAMOUS WOMAN ANARCHIST
Her Passing Recalls Memories Of the
Paris Commune.

ut the age of 20, was the Red Virgin.

and a lover of hers we're fighting side
by side at one OF the barricades In
the city of Paris. A cannon ball struck
the man cutting him in two and bap-
tizlng the woman in his blood.
Louise Michel had another little
title, too. II was not hers alone, for
she wore 1t jointly with other ladies
of her class, She and they secured
this title-"La Petroleuse"--in the
commune. La Petroleuse means the
petroleum girl or kerosene maid or
the lady of the naphtha or something
of that sort. They carried these vola.
tile fluids in cans and threw them
into buildings either burning or about
to be burned.
She was a strange woman, as she
had been strange child, William T
Stead said of her, in character
sketch written In 1892: She is some
what psychic herself, having from
time to time strange glimpses into
futurity, Of which she but seldom
speaks. But when las a little girl
she invoked the devil to appear in the
haunted castle of the estate on whicl
she lived, using the customary invo.
cations and protesting her love for
him, she saw nothing and thereupon
incontnently concluded that there
was no devil"
"She was 10 years old" said Mr..
Stead again, "before her mother could
induce her to touch meat of any kind.
It seemed species OF cannibalism.
The frog cut in two by the spade,
the worn-out horse driven to the
leech pond, the goose nailed by its
feet before the fire, the kitten drag
ged by string through the street
all these things reused in Louise
Michel a loathing and horror which
even at the earliest age found vent
in the longings for vengeance. She
longed to see the horse trample down
its pitiless tormentor. So she grew
up, loving the oppressed. hating the
oppressor." That Is what Mr.. Stead
wrote. ta a.

Moving from Burgundy to Paris, she
opened school and became an active
propagator OF advanced doctrines. Be.

to kill the emperor of France--in her
