Use of Toxins Discredited-
Although the preventive and curative
powers OF virus, serums, toxins, anti
toxins, and analogous products, when
properly. prepared, has long since been es-
tablished, certain unfortunate accidents
which have resulted from their admins
tration, notably those which recently oc-
Cured in St. Louis. Mo, have tended to
.discredit their use. The extreme value of
these preparations in preventing and cur
ing disease renders it of pressing impor-
tance therefor that action be taken to

profession and Of the community generally

The Washington, Alexandria and Mount
Vernon Electric Railway Company on yes
teTGay put IN operation the Jim Crow

bill. providing for the separation OF the
white and coiored races in the company's
cars. The law is only operative between

Bridge The conductors were notified by
the company to enforce the provisions Of
the new law. They are, according to its
ruling, given police power to carry out
the law inasmuch as the separation of
the two races are concerned The officials
of the road 90 not anticipate any trouble
in carrying out the new law According
to its provisions the front seats are for the
white passengers and the last FIVE seats
in each coach are reserved for the color
ed passengers.

OPENING OF MINOR
STREETS And ALLEYS
The Engineer Commissioner
Reports on a Bill.
Costs of Proceedings ChaTgeable, He
Says, to an Emergency ApprO-
priation of 1893.

Col John Biddle. the Engineer Com
missioner. today forwarded to his associ-
ates a statement relative to the proposed
bill to provide for the opeLing and closing
Of alleys and minor streets in the District,
prepared by his department. and about to
be sent to Congress with a request for its
introduction and enactment.
The provisions of existing law on this
subject" says Colonel BiddIe. are con
tanned in sections 1905 and 1906. inclusive.
Of the District code. These provisions
are a reproduction of several statutes
gpon the subject. but the City Solicitor
reports that it has been found from actual
experience that they are inadequate to
attain the object desired.
The bill carries no appropriation. the
costs OF all the proceedings taken being
chargeabIe to an emergency appropriation
made in the deficiency act approved
March 3. 1898.
Quite Z large number of alleys and one
minor street have been opened under the
+ provisions OF the law and large number
of alleys and minor street wse now
awaiting condemnation. Some of the as
sessments made under the Law have been
attacked owing TO an uncertainty in the
/ provisions of the present law. This TN
certainty ard q number Of negotiable
features Of the present law are removed
/ IN the proposed bill.
Among the mere important changes
made are transferring the proceedings Of
! condemnation frcm the marshaIs jury TO
a jury to be appointed by, and 20 act under
the direction CT. the court. the enlarge
ment Of the area CT assessment. and an
Improvement IN the provisions regarding
/ notice.
ct is believed to be more advisable
that the bill should be passed as a seDa-
rate law rather than an amendment to
the code as the subject-matter is really
a part OF the municipal law which the
code does not attempt 10 cover"

A Crazy indian
He Chops off The Head of an Un-
offending Visitor.

Paris, Texas, Aug. %. Last
Thursday a Choctaw Indian from
Blue county, who was out hunt
ing missing horse, rode up to
the hut of another Choctaw in
Cedar county on Little River and
made inquiry about the missing
animal The Indian addressed,
who was sitting in front of the
hut, arose and went out to the
fence. He seized an ax and
made an assault on the visitor,
chopping him off his pony. After
he fell to the ground the assallant
continued the assault and severed
the head from the body.
The other members of the fam
lly who were spectators of the
horrible crime, fled from the
scene. Returning half an hour
later they found the murderer
sitting down by the headless
corpse, flaming the flies OF and
keeping the chickens and hogs
away. When he saw them com.
ing he ran away. Following his
trail down to the creek, they
found his dead body in two feet
of water where he had drowned
himself.
