A Washington special of Saturday eve
ming to the St. Louis Globe says:
The law passed at the late session Of the
District Legislature relative 10 civil rights
in hotels eating houses, restaurants, bar
Der shops, etc, known here as the "ice
cream and barber shop law went into
effect so far as practicable, to-day. 1t is
based on the idea of Mr.. Summers civil
rights bill 1t provides that all citizens
shall be accommodated at any establish
ment embraced in the above list; that the
printed list of prices shall be cOnspicuouslY
posted, and failures to comply with any of
the provisions of the law shall entail the
forfeiture of the license for one year, and
subject the proprietor so offending to a fine
of 500. The restaurants and bars have
pretty much baffled the act by printing a
scale of prices in which whisky and
other ordinary straight drinks, cigars. etc,
have exOrbitant prices affixed. Below is
added the significant notice that "a liberal
reduction will be made to our regular pa
irons" These high prices have thus far
discouraged all but regular patrons. In the
barber shops, however, the regular scale of
prices has been displayed, and a consider
able sprinkling of cOlOred customers is to be
found in most of them; in some instances
the novel spectacle has been witnessed of
two or more negroes waiting their turn to
be shaved by white BARRIERS, and many
white patrons of such establishments have
invested in razOrs. The restaurants have
combined, and will test the first case that
arises under the law, and carry it to the
highest courts.

second DISTRICT Court.

In the opposition to the account filed IN
the succession Of j. FOrstall, the court de
Iivered the following opinion, refusing
new trial from the former judgment:
On the motion of the opponent for q new
trial in this case, the court has reviewed
with care and attention the authorities cited
in the former trial and those cltd by the
able counsel in-support Of their motion for
q new trial, and / have not been aole 70
discover in those authorities any principle
adverse to the views taken by the court IN
its former Judgment. The European codes
consulted by me define the duties OF power
conferred upon the adaptive father, ana
leave no room for misinterpretatlOn OF those
mowers. while our code defT 81 nothing eE-
cent the right and power OF any party for
the adoption of child, with the privilege
for the latter to be considered as legltl-
mate child Of the adoptOr, provided that
this privilege does not interfere with the
rights of the forced heirs Of the adOptoT.
The principle laid down in the Institute
of Justinian, cited by opponent, supports
fully the views taken by this court upon
this subject matter; so do the European
codes upon the same subject, with some few
notifications.
Adopted children can have no other
rights as regards their adopted father or his
family except those specifically granted by
law.
1t is therefore ordered that the rule for a
new trial be dismissed.
