Separate Car Bill.

The House bill requiring railway
companies to furnish separate cars
for white aid colored passengers,
which passed the House with but
ore dissenting voice, is not likely
to meet with such good luck in
the Senate. In the Senate the op'
position that will appear will he
taken on legal grounds. 1t will
be argued that it will not be legal
to sell a ticket to a negro i'll Wash
ington, emitting him to ride to
Cincinnati, to let him go into the
white car and stay there until the
line of Virginia is crossed, then to
make him go into the negro coach
and remain there Until the West
Va. line is crossed, when he may
be allowed to enter the white coach
again. Mr.. Epps, patron of the
bill stated that Kentucky has a
law exactly like the one proposed
to be enacted and the Supreme
Court decided it to be constitutions
al. and he has no fears Of it not be-
coming law.
Our representative, Hon. VIM =.
McAllister, is recorded as favOring
and voting for the bill, not on y as
2 delegate, when it came before
the House, but as a mem Der OF the
Committee on Roads and Internal
Navigation, when it was before
that committee. Mr., McAllster
from the first, advocated the first
FIVE sections Of the Erps' bill, which
included the separate car feature,
and went further. in seeking to
have some provision for assigning
seats to persons in the waiting
rooms Of the railroad stations. In
addition to this Mr.. McAllister
spoke in behalf Of the bill and
voted for it on its passage in the
House.

Louis The family is well known through
out that section Of the county. Mr.. I.ePage
having been successful grocer and farmer
for many years. The young lady is also
well known through her connection with the
various young peoples societies OF French
Village. particularly those OF a religious
nature, she being a member of the Young
Ladies' SodaIity and OF the choir of ST.
Philips Church.
Although Miss i.ePage has always had
leaning toward a religious life and often
thought Of giving her life to the church in
some manner. II was only after her extrsor-
binary cure that she fully determined to
give I'D her life TO the cause ct religion ard
10 become n member of the order. This de-
termination was brought about by the di-
vine interposition she believes Is apparent
in the speedy answer TO the prayers Of the
sisters. as she feels that her life could only
have been saved so m,raculously for the
purpose OF its devotion to charity and tho
, care OF suffering humanity.
From her earliest childhood Miss I.ePage
has been a devout Catholic, and she often
felt that the only happiness lay in the life
OF the clolster She never allowed her in
clnatIons TO persuade her to adopt this life.
however Us she felt that she was needed
at home and that she should await some
definite call before departing from her
home and renouncing the compaDionship Of
her family and relations. She was always
jealous IN the work OF the church as a
lay member, but never seriously thought
before this time OF assuming the veil.
About two years ago tho first signs Of
the disorder which nearly proved fatal
made their appearance in the ehaps Of a
turnor on her neck, which rapidly assumed
malignant character. and began TO under
mine her health. For some time the family
considered her affliction one that would
succumb to treatment. but as the timor
grew worse week BY week, II was seen
that a surgical operation was necessary

, there would be divine assistance toward
her recovery.
Accordingly the head OF the order at
Venice Sister Mary of the Cross. notified the
| sisterhood throughout the world to offer
their prayers on behalf ~ the girl. and
novena was ordered Preparations for the
surgical operation we're made at the same
| time. although the difficulties in the way
were great. both on account OF the position
of the tumor and of its malignity and de-
vclopment.
Within a week Of the establishment OF the
novena a marvellous thing happened. The
tumor, which had attained a great size and
had reached a stage which generally proves
fatal. began to gradually decrease in size.
and by the end OF the second week had al
most disappeared. The operation, which
was set for September on account OF the
cooler weather AT that time. was neve; per-
formed, az by that date the cancer had en-
.irely disappeared. and the patients health
at the same time was restored until she was
| in as vigorous condition as at any stage Of
her life.
The miraculous side Of the recovery was
not lost upon Miss LePage or upon the
sisters The total disappearance Of a tu-
! NOR Of such advancement was unparalleled
| and all were convinced that nothing less
! than special divine clemency was response
BILE for the cure. Miss LePage herself was
convinced that her life had been saved in
answer to the prayers of the sisterhood. and
other prayers of thanksgiving were offered
b. herself and by the Sisters.
/ That che should have been singled out for
! this miracle made a deep impression on the
girl and on her especial friend. Sister Mary.
The thoughts OF her childhood. the recollec-
ton that ever since She was a little girl
she had lorged for a religious life. and
finally, the cure OF which she had been the
recipient. all convinced them that some
higher power wa. saving her for a special
purpose. That this purpose WAS devotion TO

the cause Of humanity neither doubted. and
guidance In the matter was asked by both In
their prayers
Shortly afterwards Miss LePage returned
to her home with her mind fully made UP
to Join some order. where she could conse-
crate her life to good work. Her decision
was aided by a letter she received from Sis
ter Mary, who reminded the girl that she
had been in the care OF the Sisters of the
Incarnate Word wnan her recovery was &C
compnshed. and that the order was the
natural one she should enter.
Accordingly. Miss LePase determined to
become a member Of the body. and resolved
TO depart from the world with It's pleasures
trials and temptations and TO assume the
veil OF a nun. She was accepted by the
order in whose care ehe had been cured.
and is now a member OF the sisterhood of
the Ircarnate Word. She left last week for

Accordingly. she was sent TO the hospital
OF the Sisters OF the Incaruate Word. at
Venice. where the operation was per
formed. 1t was here that she first met Sis
ter Mary OF the Word. whose advice had
such an effect upon her resolution.
After the operation was performed. Miss
LePage was discharged as cured and for
year there were no further signs OF the
disease The glimpse OF religious life
which she had had in the hospital made a
deep impression upon her. however, and her
thoughts turned more toward the church
than before. Especially was che impressed
with the words and teachings Of Sister
! Mary. who had been her nurse while re-
covering from the effects OF the operation.
She could not quite bring herself to leave
her home as yet. however. thinking that
her vocation was at horne. rather than n
the church.
At the end OF the year Miss IsePage again
fell sick, AMI 10 the despair OF her friends
the tumor made its temperance In a more
malignant form than before It was seen
| that another operation would be necessary.
and In July of last year she again entered
the hospital This time the tumor was In
such an advanced and dangerous stage that
II looked as III IL were nheiy 10 prove Idthl,
the operation OF removing II being of
necessity OF the most dangerous character.
1t was a choice Of that or a slow death,
however. and as the pain of the excrescence
was almos: unbearable. IT was decided that
the risk should be taken.
Shortly before the operation was per
formed. however. the sisters of the hospital
proposed that they should create a novena
for Miss LePage's benefit. thinking that
their prayers would be opportune at q time
when there was so much risk of the opera
ton proving fatal. The character OF the
young lady. the devotion she had shown to
the church. and her strong leaning toward
a religious life had not escaped the notics
Of the sisters. and they felt hopeful that
