The apparently uncorseted figure
made It's appearance in Paris some
time ago and has recently been seen
on our own shores. Some OF these
figures really are uncorseted, but the
majority of them wear the new cor
sets. which are said to be the proper
thing by Dame Fashion & Co, cor
setieres.
These corsets are merely hip con-
flners They extend only a few
inches above the waist where they
are held close TO the figure by elias
tic The skirt extension is cut on
corset lines with boned gorings. A
brassiere should be worn TO confine
the body a little more than does the
ordinary loose frivolous garment worn
by the average woman.
This evolution in stays has evident
ly been brought about by the vogue
for the high waist line and the man
DARN bodice. But whatever the real
cause, the wise women who adopt the
fashion are going TO be both healthier
and more comfortable.

RAILROAD NEWS.
Three Million Tons of Rails
Produced in Year 1909.
But Not a Single Ton OF iron
Rail Is Turned Out.
MUCH HEAVIER STEEL.
New Railway Building Demands
Best on Market.
Other Items of General Interest
in Railroad Circles.

None of the estimates made of rail
production in 1909 exceeded 100000
tons. but the official statistics just
made public by the American Iron and
steel association show a total of
3,O62,5S2 gross tons produced in the
year, says the Iron Trade Review
Before discussing the statistics. a
word of obituary for the iron rail is
meet More than 100000 tons of
iron rails have been produced in the
United States. In 1907. the statistics
reported 92J tons; in 1908, II tons; in
1909, not a single ton is reported.
Requiscat in pace.
There are still between 5000 and
5000 miles of steam railroad track in
the United States laid in iron rails, and
there is demand for iron rails for min
ing and other industrial purposes, on
account of the facility with which they
can be bent, but that demand is to be
supplied by re-rolling old iron rails as
they are taken up from steam railroad
track. Production of new iron rails
has ceased.
The history of rail production in
the United States shows a series of
swings cutie distinct from the gem
eral progress of iron and steel manu-
facture. due to the spurts first in rail-
road building and second in the re-
placement of old and light rails by
heavy rails.
The elimination of new railroad
building in the United States was in
1887, when nearly 13, 900 miles of new
road was built. The same year natur-
ally showed a high point in rail pro-
duction. 2,139,64O tons, a total which
was not exceeded until II years later,
in 1899
The elimination of rail replacement
was in 1906, when production totalled
3,977,887 tons. These special move
ments now give place to more steady
demand for the building of a moder-
ate amount of new track each year, for
gradually replacing the iron rails and
remaining light rails in track, for re-
placing rails which are merely worn
out in service, for the building of cleo
trio lines and for general Industrial
and export purposes.
The earliest trustworthy statistics of
rail produ 7tion are for 1S49, when 21,-
712 tons of iron rails were produced.

eastern capitalists. They are going to
take in all of the large towns along
the line. Another party is going over
the same line testing the bridges and
taking their measurements on all OF
the country roads along the lines
which the first party of surveyors laid
out. They refuse to give out the

LAST RUN A WRECK.
Lake Shore Engineer Was Ready to
Retire on Pension.

Chicago, March 12.-Elbridge E.
Reynolds, Lake Shore locomotive en-
gineer of EIkhart, Ind, fought the
battles of that vocation for more than
half a century. On his last run, at
the end of which was a pension wait
ing for the 70-year-old veteran, the
injector went wrong, the engine flew
past a block signal and crashed into
a freight train
Discharged, instead of honorable
retirement, was the company's reply,
in accord with strict rules. Reynolds
held his head high, said the company
was right-always was right-that he
had erred and the penalty was mer-
tied.
Then the officials, who had known
the engineer for decades and had
known his record, with not one black
mark against it until that last mishap,
reviewed their ruling. Technically,
Reynolds had been retired before that
final run, and hence he could not be
discharged they held. The engineer
was placed on the retired with hon
or" list and his pension was given
him.

ment includes 1000 steel ore cars. IS
Mallet engines. LOCO boxcars and 500
gondo1as. The Northern Pacific has
ordered 1000 boxcars and much passen-
ger equipment.
With the purpose of making it the
Chicago end of a semi-transcontin-
entail system. the old Wisconsin Cen
trail, now a part of the Canadian Paci-
fic, virtually is to be rebuilt. When
constructed the line will become an
integral part of the Canadian Pacific
and through passenger and freight
service will be established between
Chicago and Vancouver. This will re-
quire an expenditure of $4,000, 600, and
it is reported that surveyors already
are at work.
