to guard the $50,000,000 in cash

city's banks which it guards. This
device is nothing less than a steam

the vault would find himself prompt

this new vault is the most remark
able in the world. 1t is made of 400
tons of steel and rests upon piers,
the spaces between which are always

ingenious arrangement of mirrors a

beneath the safe, consists, in addi-

tiers of railroad interlocking rails,

Just what form the entertainment

The mayor side stepped the appli-

company, that his concern has reached
that point in it's work Of building the
railway where it desires to make some
definite arrangements about getting in
to Madison. His company proposes to
enter Madison by the way of what is
known as the Oregon road 1t would
strike the local street railway on the
southwest or westerly side of Lake
Monona, again at the West Madison
passenger station of the St. Paul road,
and then go up to and around the cap
itol park Mr.. Zigler further wrote
that the final survey of the proposed
route will be completed shortly, and
that the company desires to commence
active building operations as soon as
possible.
Mr.. Montgomery replied to the letter
in an encouraging manner. eve are
willing, however, to take the business
up with you personally if you prefer,
with the understanding that in case we
are unable to agree, it shall be left to
the determination of the railroad COM
mission.

equitably, and will be pleased, as we
stated before, to have you construct the
proposed line and enter the city over
