Railroads Profit By Sale of Old Material. Few people realize the amount of scrap handled by railroads and sold to mills. The saving of this material proves a big source of revenue annually to railroads. It is estimated that the scrap sold by the Morton in 1916 will amount to $200,000. All old rails sold during the past few. months and in some cases more, than 1 the original price paid by railroad* ;, for the rails when new. HILLIARD & HAMILL FORD PARty Jan. 18. _ ■May Stewart. • “Lucretzia Borgia,” Victor Hugo’s sensational melodrama, which (M. E. Cline brings to the ElMs Theatre to-, night will be the very best attraction that has ever played this city for some time, and Mr. Ellis considers himself very fortunate in-securing the company.. A feature of this attraction is Miss May Stewart, a young and very talented actress, who will be seen in the title role of “Lucretzia Borgia,” a part which,, gives Miss Stewart the opportunityW playing one of the heaviest rolek ever written. The fact that the play is historical as well as entertaining, should interest all theatre goers and large houses should rule during Miiss Stewart’s engagement, which will hold the boards for two nights. On Wednesday evening Miss Steware, and her company will present “The Sculptor’s Dream,” by Gilbert, author of "Pinafore” and "The Mikado.” This is Miss Stewart’s awn version of “Pygmalion and Galatea.” With this performance she will give four scenes from Shakespeare’s “Macbeth.” Now let Rensselaer people give this deserting company packed houses during their short engagement here.
