Their back.
The ordinance provides that the two
front seats are reserved for whites and
the Two back seats for negroes. When
these two are filled, then the whites are
assigned to the third front seat and the
negroes to the third back seat, and SO on
till they meet. The conductors have
police powers and passengers must sit
where they direct
Mr. n. J. Dicks was before the Re-
corder this morning for refusing to sit
on the front seat. He gave as his ex-
cuse that it was occupied by ladies' and
he was not dressed suitably to sit beside
them, but had taken the seat Immediate
ly behind them, none but the front seat
being occupied. Recorder Baxter re-
served his decision. The ladies are com
planning bitterly about being forced to sit
on the front seat next to the motorman
with half a dozen empty seats back Of
them.

Of fact indigestion lays the foundation fo-
many incurabie diseases. No person with
a vigorous. healthy 3 onsach will fall VIC
