The 'Jim Grow" or separate
car bill was passed the senate yes
terday and is now a law. 1t reads
ss follows:
Section 1. That all railway and
steamboat companies, as common
carriers in the transportation of
passengers for hire in N nrth Car
olina, other than street railways,
shall provide separate, but equal,
accommodations for the white and
colored races on all passenger
trains and steamboats, carrying
passengers. Such accommodations
may be furnished by railway COM
panies either by separate passen-
ger cars, or by compartments in
passenger cars, which shall be
provided by the railways under
the supervision and direction of
the board of railway commission
ers or the officers succeeding to
their powers: Provided, that this
shall not apply to relief trains in
cases of accident, to Pullman or
sleeping cars or through express
trains that do not stop at all sta
tions and are not used ordinarily
for travelling from station to sta
tion; to negro servants in attend"
ance on their employers; to Off

ported.
Sec. Q. The railway commits
sioners, or the officers lcceeding
to their powers, are hereby au-
thorized to exempt from the pro-
visions of this act branch lines and
narrow guage railways, if in their
judgment the enforcement of this
act be unnecessary to secure the
comfort of passengers, by reason
of the light volume of passenger
traffic or the small number of ner
gro passengers travelling on such
narrow guage or branch lines.
Sec. 3. That when any coach,
or compartment of car, for either
race shall be completely filed at 8
station where no extra coach OF

A Case of Chicken Pox Creates Excitement
in Goldsbero
Daily Argus of Thursday, March2
The people OF Goldsboro have
been excited day over placs
ard displayed in front of the

Webbtown bearing the sign
Small Pox."
DR.. j. H. Powell, the county
physician, was ordered by the
Mayor this morning to investigate
the case of Mary Byrd, who it
was thought had the small pox.
DR.. Powell reported to the Mayor
that he thought the woman had
the small pox and the May or
called the Board Of Aldermen to-
gether at o'clock this afternoon
to pass upon the question. The
Board asked DR.. W. j. Jones and
DR.. NJ. E. Robinson to go over
and diagnose the case. They did
so at once and both reported that
the woman only had chicken pox
and the sign in front of the house
was ordered removed.
Inasmuch as there are ca ses Of
smallpox in other towns through
out the State, the Board decided
to erect a pest house outside the
city limits, where patients could be
taken if the disease should come
TO GoldsborC, and committee
was appointed To have the house
erected Immediately.
The Board was in session until
5 o'clock this afternoon and
finally decided to employ the city
physician DIR. W. H. Cobb, Jr.,
and DIR. M E. Robinson, and pay
them to vaccinate everybody who
Is not able to pay for vaccination.

The saloon of the Hendrix Hudson

eyes of Menzies, the Scotch steward,
If he had been there to see its terrible

dirty, sheep skinned soldiers sat and
fingered a filthy pack of cards. In each
mouth was stuck an evil smelling ci-
gar, and innumerable stains of jugs
and tumblers marked the smooth ma
hogany The cellaret doors had been
burst open by the kicks of lusty boots,
and books, broken crockery and heap
of little knickknacks strewed the floor.
The company had evidently Toasted
where it slept. The dirty plates and
knives of the previous evening meal
were tossed carelessly into a corner,
unwashed and sticky. The mud of
shore and forest was thick on carpets
and chairs.
One of the men took a sup from a
jug beside him and cursed aloud

shortly from the cabin came sounds
Of the clink Of glass and boisterous

The jests grew less frequent, the

tremble.
Cautiously Stefan peered beneath the

Five miles away beside the castle

In his hand he held a crowbar. For an
